That's an insult to the artistry of Looney Tunes and the Warner Bros. cartoons. The Br'ers always gave me a "Warner Animation/MGM Studios" kind of vibe in how they're animated more expressively than the usual Disney fare.
It was obvious when Tiana's was announced since it was such a sudden knee jerk reaction and they had one single piece of artwork drawn without putting any planning into it.
Speaking of. It seems like Disney MAY have used AI to create the illustration seen on the maps they're giving out.
If true, this is incredibly embarrassing for the company.
Orlando has 5 drops. One after the loading area, one small one when you initially enter the outdoor area, a drop when you enter the first show scene, a drop into the Laughin' Place, the Big Drop, and finally a small drop after splashdown.
I think more people want Splash to return in some shape or form than those that are happy it's gone. Personally, I'd LOVE for it to return but what's done is done and Disney is never going to walk back on their decision.
Disney will never "bring back" Splash because the main reason they condemned it was to remove any and all Song of the South references from their media empire.
