Thanks, Prof Ecks! This was the obvious explanation, but for some reason it took 26 replies to get to it, with several of them even expressing anger or contempt for the OP.

They would never do that! What's next, you're going to tell us that they'd bulldoze 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea? wait, ok... nevermind...
But how about Mr. Toad! They'd- what? Aw shoot.
Horizons and World of Motion! They'd never tear down those 2 classics! ummm, dang
Is ANYTHING sacred?
Pirates, Haunted Mansion, and Small World are probably the only attractions that will never be gone. Some day, this could sadly be a very real discusion.

As much crazy as that is and with the fact they wont do it thank goodness, they did rip out Mr. Toad...and that still has people mad so I highly doubt they'd do it.

Did you just say that to get everyones attention?
I know alot of people know your joking, but some think you really thought that rumor could be true.

Wait til the suits find out the ride is based on the "banned" Song of the South. (still mad they put out another sucky year of WD Treasures W/O it)
This may not be a bad rumor after all....
I know, they will do a Brother Bear overlay next time they shut it down for referb.

I can just see it now... a conversation between 2 bean counters who just don't get it......
Hmm, how can we make Splash Mountain cheaper to operate?
Those animatoony-anatomic- er, whatever you call those robot things are too expensive!
You think any of the guests even know who Brer Bunny is anymore?
I doubt it, they're too stupid to care, they just ride it for the big drop and getting wet.
Yeah, maybe we can take out the whole back portion and all the characters, just have the logs go up, then back down, less time spent on the ride and more time for buying stuff.
Oh, that would save a lot of money! But we still need to tie it in to Consumer Products somehow.....
How about cardboard cutouts from whatever DVD we're selling that month, we could swap them in n' out cheaply...
Yeah! Then sell the DVDs to the morons at the gift shop at the end!
Wow, we just saved hundreds of thousands a year.
Great, I'll make sure that we get awarded a couple of new Bentley's, let's go to the Bahamas for 2 weeks in celebration!
I'll bring the blow!
