News Splash Mountain retheme to Princess and the Frog - Tiana's Bayou Adventure

[jt04]

New Orleans next to Big Thunder Mountain which I have no idea where (I'll say New Mexico) is a theming disaster

Just like how the Jungle Cruise isn't just one river in one part of the world.

At least JC makes it clear which river and continent you're currently in and both sides of the river are in the same place.

"Anyone know how you can tell these are African elephants?"

The only lock is that “mountain” will be in the name. Outside of that who knows.

I don’t think that’s certain at all.

I know there's a lot of controversy around it, and I know people on both sides of the issue, but I think we really need to ask the question.. Is this still gonna be sponsored by Ziploc?

I was just pointing out Ray’s current...condition after the movie. If he is in the ride...Jim has to do the voice (I hope he does). Goin down the bayou is perfect and it basically requires Ray.

This is the first good idea to come out of the Splash Mountain fluster cuck.
I vote we put Tink in charge and give her a tidy $500,000,000 to work with. What do you guys think?

Instead of briar patches, we can have a beignet patch!

A little concept I made on how the reimagine in WDW could happen with a Bayou surrounding land taking over.

Given that Tiana's friend, Charlotte La Bouff is the daughter of a sugar baron and because beignets will likely be served, a logical sponsor might be a sugar company or even Louisiana's The American Sugar Cane League; I'm sure they have the funds to back a PatF overlay.

I like it except for the misplaced and increasingly smaller western style strip mall. I hear they're selling acreage to the west (um I mean north)

Oh, never said anything about Jim Cummings...he is great I met him at Comic Con. Very cool guy.

Yes er well, whatabout The Evil Queen in Snow White.(currently knocking on the door in 7 dwarves....Ursula in Little Mermaid......sure I can think of a few more around the kingdom that met their demise but live on in an attraction in the MK! Not to mention Darth Vader at DHS......shall I continue? Ray can be the storyteller....like Brer Frog.....you simply cannot omit Ray and make it work....cuteness counts!!!!

 

[Tinkwings]

I think Ray may be...unavailable. He is great though.

C'mon use your imagination......

You are definitely correct. I have actually made a whole concept for this attraction, it’s impossible that they don’t use “Friends on the Other Side” so I’m sure they will use both characters who are dead. Ray is a great character and like I said...that song is perfect so surely they will have Ray?

 

[Touchdown]

I also can’t help but think that Ray is the only character who can be the narrator of the ride.

Both those rides take place during the events of the movie (a.k.a before they die), they explicitly said in the original blog post that this takes place after the movie.

Good point but nonetheless....Imagineering can create a new ghost host extra bright shiny Ray to lead the way.....anything can happen if you use your imagination.....and sell DVD's that omit the dearly departed scene..... the merchandise will help pay for the refurb.....little firefly headbands with light up parade tune flashing bugs.....

 

[MaximumEd]

You guys coming up with all these plans to re-theme entire lands into something else. lol. You know Disney is gonna spend $8.76 on the ride re-do and call it a day.

 

[jt04]

Wait, the expansion area is to the west. Perfect. Hoping for a river rapids ride someday. Better than Kali or IoA.

Extra room for PatF mini-land and New Orleans Square potentially.

There's Mama Odie as well. But Ray is still the better choice.

Was just thinking as I was doing the dishes tonight.....solution.....Mama Odie is IT.....she can voodoo Ray back to help out.....goodness if magic is not allowed the whole thing is a flop....
