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

[The Aracuan Bird]

I had been worried that “Friends on the Other Side” would not be included because it might frighten a 4-year old.

If they’re worrying about frightening a four year old, perhaps they should be looking to remove the 50 foot intimidating drop

I mean, the songs will have to appear in the ride. They are an integral component of the film. What @MansionButler84 said doesn’t indicate that it will get in the way of story. We have close to no info on the content of the ride. Let’s wait and see??

I imagine we’re also going to here the “I want” song, as well as 1 or 2 as well as “Going Down The Bayou” and/or “Dig a Little Deeper”. That’s 4 or 5 songs compared to Splash’s 3. A bit bloated if you ask me. But who knows, maybe the count is lower than I’m expecting.

Is this for DL version or will this include WDW splash redo?

Both, although it will be awhile for ours, last I’d heard. DL’s should close first, within a year.

I didn't want to read into your post or when WDW announced Boo Bash. Splash wasn't named as a ride for it, though it could've been included in the many other rides opened late for it... but it had me wonder. cool thanks!

They would rather avoid a major closure during the 50th. TRON will be late for the party, as it is.

It’s just gonna feel like a Splash parody

It better not. If we are making a ride in support of Black Americans, we had better not phone it in.

That seems like it’s putting a bit too much pressure on a reskin (though Disney themselves put them in that position). We should have rides (plural) in support of Black Americans. Chances are, many are not going to feel represented by this one princess in this one attraction.

Doesn’t look like they say whether both parks will go down at the same time or not. I’m reading it as they are saying WDW will open in 2023 and close in mid 2022 with no specific information on DL. Is that how you read this?

I'm reading it as "I'm throwing crap against the wall and seeing what sticks".

I have absolutely no inside connections, but I could write something that say that a new ride (that has been announced) "may" open in a few years and it be plausible. It would be as meaningful as this article.

Wasn’t he an insider here before moving over there?

I dont trust Pirates n Princess to be honest

I don't want Splash to change, personally, but if they do not have Friends on the Other side during the lift hill before the big drop they miss the biggest opportunity.

Picture it, as you do up the lift hill you are surrounded by the vodoo masks shaking and laughing and an AA of Facilier:

Are you ready?
(Are you ready?)
Are you ready?
Transformation central!
(Transformation central!)
Reformation central!
(Reformation central!)
Transmogrification central!
Can you feel it?
You're changin', You're changin', You're changin', all right!
I hope you're satisfied
But if you ain't
Don't blame me!
You can blame my friends on the other side!
(You got what you wanted)
(But you lost what you had)

Aaaaaaand over the falls.

I mean- come on....

I'm bringing tomatoes on the ride with me, so I can throw them at the animatronics.

"insider"

But... He has an 87% accuracy rate, just ask him!

Just splash water at them, it's there for a reason!

I don‘t see our Splash closing halfway through the 50th. 2023 for DL, I’d buy. 2024 for us, perhaps.

I'd wager '22 for DL, '25 for Orlando
