MK Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

[Trauma]

Just checked the Disney video again. The comments are getting even worse if that’s somehow possible.

They need to pull the video, this is going to start to be a massive PR hit.

I notice some bots there also ( you can tell because the comments are all similar followed by a string of emojis ) but they can’t keep up with the outpouring of anger and negativity.

Best thing Disney can do now is pull everything and pretend all is well.

Too late…

It's straight up gaslighting at this point.

Snake oil’s the new pixie dust

Yes, I’d definitely agree the video is not the best. Videos are never quite the same as an in person experience, especially regarding the lighting and direction of one’s eye, but there’s nothing particularly significant about the ride omitted from the video if that’s what you’re asking.

Not omitted, no - Drew seemed to feel the atmosphere wasn't captured via video. I get that as sometimes trying to take a picture of a natural scene makes the scene look flat and 'meh', when in person it's breathtaking.

Curious because on the negative side, I have heard a lot of people call the bayou only scenes either 'dead space' or 'Hobby Lobby decorations' (harsh!) with fake plants and string lights. On the positive side, I've heard comparisons to Na'vi River Journey and of course Drew's very enthusiastic report.

I'm fine with the 'vibing and soaking up the atmosphere' approach so if it's like a Lazy River through a gorgeous bayou, I think I'd really enjoy it.

Coming from a random poster this comment doesn’t mean much.

Coming from you it means we have full scale panic in Burbank right now.

I watched this video yesterday, and I was relieved that at least the characters did say different things and not always the same lines:

It was less jarring watching this than Disney's version with the cuts. It seemed to flow a bit better (but not that much).

Snake oil is so common, got this at Walgreens

I'm happy for Drew liking it. But now I've seen several videos, not just Disney's. I don't hate it but I'm not excited about it either. I'll ride it in October and will like it for what it is but it could have been so much better.

I can picture it all in my head.

Iger in his office, picking his cellphone up off his desk.

Checking the comment section of the YouTube video, he starts to scroll furiously looking for some sign of positivity!

After the initial wave of panic wears off he collects himself, slowly sets the phone down on his desk and lets out a long sigh.

He then returns in earnest to the difficult task of destroying the company.

"Yeah, I thought it was boring".

Secret footage from Bob's office after he checked his phone for positive feedback about TBA (collected from an anonymous source who said she was not Willow Bay I'll take her at her word, she sounded nice but the voice was very familiar...):

Previews cancelled for whole day, some people were in line for 4 hours and then told to leave.

There's a rumor that were was a small fire somewhere on the attraction.

Tiana is closed rest of today...

All the people that were gaslit for years saying that we were crazy for saying it won’t be as great as the predecessor, have finally been vindicated.

Does this remind me of the “sonic cycle“?

 

[Ayla]

Unfortunately that’s the truth. What is more puzzling is despite a large swath of the population understanding that, people still keep logging in. I wish more people would just break the cycle. There are so many communities like this from a wide range of topics that avoids the gamified-nature of the aforementioned social media platforms.

I deleted both Twitter and TikTok because of how much of a genuine waste of time they both are, and besides the annoyance of clicking on posts on this Forum because I don’t have an account, I’m actually living a happier, more productive life.

I noticed a huge decrease in my anxiety once I deleted my twitter account (never had tik tok).

 

[HauntedPirate]

Not to be outdone by his boss, someone recorded Josh D'Amaro's reaction when he saw the negative feedback immediately after hearing TBA has closed for the day:

Say... does anyone know if Tony Baxter has been spotted in the vicinity of Frontierland at WDW recently?

You can’t be serious.

This whole thing is beyond a farce at this point.

Complete and absolute failure by TWDC.

 

[Mr. Sullivan]

Umm…have a good day…I don’t want to get into an abstract debate with you.

Wasn’t looking for a debate, was just asking a question since you seemed so sure of it’s controversy despite that going against literally everything DL locals have ever told me about it. Was interested in being pointed to the thoughts of the opposite if it’s out there since the DL forum and servers I’ve joined spoke so highly of it.

Small fire? Like at Tiki Birds Under New Management? Next thing you know they reverted to the original attraction. Okay, that won't happen here. Hopefully an excuse to delay opening and add more AAs and storytelling elements. We can dream, can't we?

Probably best not to put too much stock into rumors, especially dramatic ones.

If in fact there were some sort of incident it'll come to light soon enough. In the meantime let's not get ahead of ourselves.
