I actually went on Splash twice on different days this week. Surprisingly they are still fixing broken effects. Noticed animatronics fixed and the audio on the lift bill fixed. Ride is still in bad condition but way better than what’s in that video.
Friend did their goodbye ride over the weekend. The entire rabbit trap scene was stationary, so it was just a frozen Br'er Fox yelling at a frozen Br'er Bear. They were genuinely creeped by the lack of life/movement in the Laughin' Place and they told me the finale was hard to see in its current shape (Many of the chickens and geese on the Zip Lady have died).
However, if they are still fixing minor stuff then maybe it has some chance of looking mildly decent when it goes

We went on it 6 times from 12/9-15th...the Zip Lady was the ONE scene where everything was working...so I don't know what they were looking at, but it was fine when we were there. Lots of other AA's were D.O.A.
The Zip has it's issues, but it's nowhere near as bad as the rest of the ZADD scene. The entire gator scene being turned off takes alot out of the finale. Br'er Turkey and Br'er Toad have been silent for a while. One of the Swamp Boys has been out for a while.
....it just hit that we're officially one month out from Florida's Splash closing forever.

I'm no fan of eBay but $10? Please. At least $50.

Yep. Almost time for Disney to spend a ton of money replacing a beloved existing ride instead of creating something new which they so desperately need

Something new: I thought that was Tron.

Which took 5 years to build.
Disney needs more than just 1 new attraction as well. Splash was already popular so retheming it does nothing to help capacity around MK
If they wanted a Tiana attraction, build one. Don’t replace an existing popular attraction but I won’t get into that

After Tron, there is no other attraction greenlit or reasonably in the pipeline other than the Moana water walkthrough at EPCOT, right?
So in terms of new attractions, we would be looking at a minimum of 3-5 years before anything gets added at any of the parks? Oy vey.

If only they had thought to consult random people on a Disney message board, right?
There definitely are plans according to our insiders.
Don't know if any have been greenlit or scheduled yet.
Certainly, none have been announced except for that awful blue sky stuff at the last D23.

That’s actually true…by the time eBay takes their cut, at 50 bucks, all you’ll be left with is the $10…

Wasn't it being thrown around that Zootopia/Moana got greenlit or is very close to it?
