I don't care what they do in Disneyland, although Princess and the Frog makes a lot of sense there on the edge of New Orleans Square
But Magic Kingdom's splash is right in the middle of Frontierland and should be something that fits that theme... The thing I love about MK is that it's only ever had "Disney Content" in it. Star Wars, Indy, Captain EO, Marvel... have been a part of the other "Castle Parks" around the world but Magic Kingdom has only ever consisted of "Disney" stuff
I think they should leave the exterior of Splash Mountain, keep the America Sings characters, and replace the Song of the South songs and characters with the other Disney Folk Heroes and their songs.
Keep Magic Kingdom's Splash Mountain "Classic Disney and Frontierland" themed

...and the stylized backgrounds of a lot of those old shorts, done by people like Walt Peregoy, Eyvind Earle, and Mary Blair, would fit in well with what's all ready at Splash Mountain
