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

[ToTBellHop]

The related merchandise looks nice.
Someone made a effort here artwork wise.
The refreshed interior of the Critter Co-Op also looks quite nice.

It does irk me however that they keep using the tag line 'Join The Party!' for the products and marketing related to this experience.
Some of us are still in mourning and this is NO party by any means.
Just rubs me the wrong way all things considered.

But i like the look of some of the merch.
Let's see if it actually sells to Guests...and not just the local Ebay flippers.

Some of you have mourned the loss of a ride longer than I mourned the loss of a grandma.

Are they selling Mardi Gras beads and plastic trumpets in the gift shop? If not, Disney management is truly lost.

You sir are a bad grandson! JK Note to mods, used the winky emoji to indicate I was kidding,

Omg, No way——that is just too easy


Absolutely PERFECT for the big drop to honor the predecessor

Why does none of the food merch have the Tiana's Foods branding on it?

Because everything else about this project, from conception to execution, has been a cascading avalanche of missed opportunities.

Oof, good luck with that Florida heat. I’m not sure how I ever tolerated Florida in July when our vacations were beholden to school schedules. If I suddenly became a local, I’d be hibernating every summer.

In the US Capitol, in statuary hall, Florida has one of the man who created air conditioning

Well deserved.

This is the type of scene that should have been throughout the ride, I just don't get it. Also that merch piece with tiana and naveen standing at the tower could have been a ride scene as well, instead we get no naveen. (not counting barely existing in finale). This is the style and effort the ride should have been populated with, they got everything backwards.

Yes, little things like this would flesh out the lives of the critters on the ride.

So obvious but WDI in 2024 is terrified of conflict and scares.

I literally got goosebumps watching that thinking about how great that could have been!
It still could be done but yes - today's Disney is terrified of scares.

Probably the closest thing I’ve seen to an ”average” guest review so far, what I mean by that is it’s clear from his comments he had a general idea of the changes but hadn’t followed it closely enough to know the details… and he completely missed the “find a band” storyline.

I also think this is similar to what the average guest will likely think of the ride, he really enjoyed it but found it too dark and didn’t understand the story. Overall I’d call this a fair and balanced review.

Well, they probably couldn’t do that for the Dooky Chase spices.

As for the hot sauce…..uh……

Hey, didja see the new mouse ears themed to the outfit she doesn’t wear in the ride?

 

[PizzaPlanet]

Didn’t the movie have some frog hunter characters? Could’ve been interesting if they were trying to poach the musical critters on their way to the party

Something has been in my mind. IDK if anyone else has noticed it, but the water emitters at the top of the hills seem to be turned off more than they are on in pictures and videos of the ride. Most visibly, the water for the big waterfall / last drop is often vacant.

All of this makes me wonder… does the water running down the hills cause possible downtime, or is it a result of downtime (like the parrot on Miss Adventure Falls that doesn’t like to be powered off and on)?

I don't suppose I can fairly give an opinion until I actually experience it, but no music from the film?!?! Holy smokes! PaTF has an awesome soundtrack! If ever there was a ride you could book report, this could have been it!

Most of the songs from the movie are in this with the exception of three.

I’m confused by this comment… there’s multiple songs from the film!

No I don’t think that’s correct. Unless the POVs I watched added their own soundtracks. Pretty sure the music is featured though.

Not the best one though.

Dig a little deeper is there
