As a great spirit used to say, “Bless your heart...”

Those who wait 80+ minutes on a regular basis to ride one of the most charming attractions ever built. They don’t see anything wrong with it whatsoever, bc there is nothing offensive or racist about the ride.

🤦‍♂️

Theres some truth to that, but the song isn’t strictly “Splash Mountain” or “Song of the South.” It’s Disney, you know? It’s become more than “that one song Uncle Remus sang,” if that makes sense. And while that’s partially due to nostalgia, it’s also because the song appeared on Sing Along VHS...

Not catchy enough to win an Academy Award. Zip is iconic. Dig a Little Deeper does not compare.

I mean, maybe it shouldn’t be unfathomable, but the idea of going to WDW and not hearing Zip a Dee Doo Dah is kind of crazy to me. I really can’t imagine it.

“Advise.”

You’ve been wrong before. Unfortunately you’re likely to be wrong again.

This is a sign that Disney listens to their customers? What?? This decision is the opposite of listening to guests. Given Splash Mountain’s wait times and the fact that they haven’t diminished, but have grown over the attraction’s 25 year history, I’m pretty sure if Disney were listening to...

Given that @Phil12 said, "Also Br'er Frog replaces Uncle Remus as the story teller at the start of the ride as he begins to tell the tale of Br'er Rabbit..." I'm pretty sure it was his point. Phil was essentially claiming that Frog and Remus should be seen as one and the same, since they play...

Disney hasn’t defended Song of the South since 1986.

This post indicates to me that you should get off of twitter and talk to the average Walt Disney World guest more often.

Hold up, I thought you claimed that Uncle Remus was in the attraction as B’rer Frog. This image completely contradicts that point in showing that they’re two separate characters. Who cares if Frog quotes Remus? Sheesh.

“Replaces” in the loosest sense.

So now quoting Uncle Remus is offensive? I assume you expect Zip a Dee Doo Dah to be banned from the parks from here on out, then? This is just sad, man.

If I were attempting to dream up a conspiracy theory regarding this action, don’t you think I’d have come up with something just a tad more interesting?

Im willing to concede that the phrase “over-educated” may not be the best to describe my feelings, that’s a fair point. I still believe (actually, I know for a fact) that there is an air of superiority around much of current Disney management, and were they not leading the company they wouldn’t...

Do they? Or does Disney management believe that they know better than the average guest? My guess is the latter is true. Again, just a bunch of elite white men telling the dumb masses that spend thousands of dollars on vacation what is and isn’t offensive/racist. Edit: removal of the term...

It’s also nowhere to be found in Splash Mountain. If the “Magical Negro” trope were featured in the attraction, I’d be the first to demand the ride be changed.

Except no one is being offended, so... If Splash Mountain were really so offensive and racist, why is it that up until this very moment, nobody on these forums ever thought to bring up the issue? Why aren’t there threads and posts about how offended people were after having ridden Splash...
