Not sure if this was posted but it seems like the cave section possibly be rethemed as... salt mines...

FYI, my 4 year old named this ride the same thing. Glad to see that inventive and imaginative creative juice flow through the Disney hallways.

Probably. Hope WDI can find a way to explain it visually (not some cheap throwaway "Salt Mine" signage) For those having never visited Louisiana won't children and adults alike just wonder why the rockwork is now covered in snow?

I think someone on this forum named it as a joke a year ago...

Never forget what we're being robbed of

I hope they keep the birdhouse with the singing birds at the beginning

I'm sure they'll find a way to do a projection instead

I'm hoping to see 1 or 2 animatronics (even if limited movement ones) mining away in the salt mine scene. Some sparkly salt could be nice.

"The Princess and the Mog"?

I think that's Spaceballs

If they are going to replace splash, THIS I could get behind.

There's only one man who would DARE give me the raspberry!

Lonestar!

Tiana or Navine will randomly say do you know Salt mines are the only place in Louisiana that has any elevation?

I really, really hope they don’t go the salt-mine route to justify the drop. Just make the story fun and exciting and no-one will care about Louisiana’s topography.

lengthy? it's one word more than splash mountain??

Almost three times as many syllables tho

Agreed

I’m impressed your four-year-old knows the word “bayou”!

Even so, it can hardly be called lengthy. I don’t recall anyone criticising Pirates of the Caribbean or Journey into Imagination for having too many syllables.

The one thing I hope dosen't happen is the last drop being a shortcut to the party. I made a joke about that being a story beat but my eyes would probably be stuck considering how far I'd roll them if that ends up being the case.

Let’s hope they come up with something a little ominous and dramatic as a fitting successor to the current drop sequence.

An easy way to bring back facilier with him being dead is to just have him be turned into one of the "friends from the other side" that follow him around.

Fitting Tiana's adventure into the Wild West will be a stretch, however great the ride is.

I'm sure they'll put as much care and effort into making Tiana's Bayou Adventure fit into the Wild West as they did a Country Bear Jamboree singing songs from the mid-20th century fit into the Wild West.

Lets hope!

Me too. We ate at blue bayou last year and the word stuck with her. Tiana is her favorite princess as well, even though she's only seen half the movie
