Which is odd, because Odi herself is scaled as tje sake.size as us in that screen that did not need to be a screen.
She’s looking down at you, so the implication is that she is taller. Agreed though there is probably ways of doing it as a AA. I don’t really mind that screen so much though, it’s really the one in the Laughin Place with Tiana that annoys me more at least on video.
I’m a Splash Mountain fan who professed (rather than admitted) enjoyment of the ride and expressed concerns about the new one, and no-one criticised me for it, much less put me through the grinder.
Whoops - I meant the Tiana animatronic in the finale. The one in front of Tiana's Palace.
It's just like in the Little Mermaid ride.
because of that., they are pushing their agendas home that she has to only wear pants, she has to succeed at everything alone, and can't have a man around her. Notice the barely existent naveen is back behind her in the finale and not out front or next to her? The whole thing reeks of agenda pushing.
I think is what happens in AA programming design when the figure doesn't actually have any purpose. If you look at something like Hondo at Smugglers Run, it is an effective figure because he is speaking to the audience and making a presentation, and his movement fits that role. In TBA, the AA programmers really had nothing to work with, other than to make her "look alive," which is how we end up with the flailing.
One of my main problems with the ride is that there was no one for one replacement of AAs. In the final lift hill, not only were there the vultures at the bottom but Brer Fox and a tied up Brer Rabbit were at the top of the lift hill. So those got replaced with Mama Odie. Fine. But the vultures were replaced by yet another screen.
I discussed "agendas" elsewhere and that got me into trouble. But come on, she's in the bayou. You don't wear a princess dress while in the bayou. You'll wear proper explorer clothes or whatever. So on that front, I don't have a problem with how she's dressed while in the bayou. She's wearing a celebratory dress in the finale. There are just so many other problems with this ride: no story, lots of empty areas, annoying log-activated AAs, etc.
We're going through the spell as we go up. By the time we're at the top of the hill, we're normal sized again.
Because you've been level-headed and non-hysterical about it. Some people really need to get some perspective in their lives.
Adding to this, I'll also note that the one Tiana figure that seems more natural than the others is the one who is standing right next to some of the figures in the second critter band. Her attention and reactions are focused pretty much exclusively on two of these critters and Louis instead of the riders. And the movements they gave her feel like she's a more natural part of the scene as a result.
