they light up, at night they will guide us throughout the rideMaybe they’re little fountains/water features to provide some kinetics…?
Just a wild guess.

As much as I agree, it doesn't have the same wait times as Pooh. It doesn't compare.I 100% disagree with all of those!!! Anyone who’s been to Disneyland to ride Toad lately will see how it’s still loved and how charming it is.
At Disneyland it gets much longer waits than Pooh. Should not be an “either or” the world is big enough for both Pooh and Toad.As much as I agree, it doesn't have the same wait times as Pooh. It doesn't compare.
But it seems incredible to me that there is still no opening date. I'm losing hope of finding it open by the end of July. Mah.
I’m losing hope for my august trip too
Cannot believe we're this close to the ride opening and people still won't let Splash go.
It's gone. It's not coming back. It's time to find peace in the reality.
The auctioneer isn’t gesturing at us, he’s very specifically addressing other figures within the fiction. The auctioneer is an integral part of a large and incredibly well-designed scene full of gags and characterization.Ok, imagine if PotC was the thing debuting for the first time, and they showed us a preview of the Auctioneer AA because of course they want to showcase the most complex figure. He stands there and gestures and looks great.
Tiana and Louis are centerpiece AAs. There are going to be a lot of less complex figures on TBA, and hopefully we’ll see the variety of action and staging you’re looking for.
Better not take a look in the Harmonious thread…..Cannot believe we're this close to the ride opening and people still won't let Splash go.

Thank you for the clarification. I just went back and checked, and different people are saying different things, with at least two posters stating that Art Nouveau would have been the appropriate style for the period. The issue as I see it isn’t fidelity to one style or other, but the overall feel of the final product, which just isn’t right.They're saying what we got includes art nouveau elements, which it does, and which you could at least explain away in-universe as being somewhat tied to the style of her tiara. That said, it neither fully pulls off art nouveau nor art deco.
The poster and everything else about the shop almost make you want to forget it's Tiana's attraction. Think of the names it could have been: Bobbin' Down the Bayou Boat Ride. Critter Cascades. Critter Creek Ride.

This is just conspiracy-theory nonsense. The Oriental Land Company pays Disney, not the other way around. If they do decide to retheme their Splash in the future, it’ll be because Tiana’s Bayou Adventure proves a great hit (I’m not saying it will—time will tell).I really think OLC is holding out until TWDC pays OLC pays them an insane amount of money to erase Splash in the name of social justice.
I typically walk on Pooh whereas I wait about 30 minutes for Toad. Not sure what you're talking about. Toad is usually the 2nd longest FL Darkride queue behind Peter Pan. Alice 3rd, then Snow White and Pinocchio being the lowest.As much as I agree, it doesn't have the same wait times as Pooh. It doesn't compare.
The goal was to erase Splash. Disney had to think of something. This co-op idea checks a lot of social checkboxes.On a very fundamental level - Tiana’s dream was to open a restaurant. It was a dream deeply inspired by her personal experience. When did she decide she wanted to be a corporate food wholesaler? That’s like making the jump from “Ariel wants to be part of the human world,” to “Ariel wants to run a multinational cutlery manufacturing firm.”
By the way, where are the Tiana brand slaughterhouses? Or is the co-op vegan only?
it is what it is, and no matter what, its still a fun log flume.
And I will be buying hot sauce as a souvenir even though I know its generic Chinese hot sauce with Tiana's label on it
I think this is a little unfair. I see no disjuncture between wanting to be a successful restaurateur and then branching out to other sectors of the food industry. They could have gone that route without all the weird branding, convoluted backstory, or anachronistic verbiage, but the concept itself isn’t farfetched within the logic of the film.On a very fundamental level - Tiana’s dream was to open a restaurant.

When a character or IP is attached, it generally goes in the name somewhere, Fantasyland or not. Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse, Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor, Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, Tom Sawyer Island, etc.The more I think about it, the more the name feels Fantasyland-ish
IE Mr Toads Wild Ride, Snow White's Enchanted Wish/Scary Adventure, Peter Pan's Flight, etc
