“Voodoo magic, Cajun alchemy. Secrets only a Sith would know”"Somehow Dr. Facilier returned"
I see the tombstone on the right but my eyes went to the one on the left and I immediately thought of @marni1971 for all the things we lament losing in WDW, especially Epcot and most recently Splash.
It is possible that Lawrence, Naveen's butler could still be in agreement with Facilier beyond the Other Side..."Somehow Dr. Facilier returned"
The difference between the entrance signs is downright depressing;

You don’t actually seem to agree with the sentiment.I agree with the sentiment but this is egregious. That scene is just incompetence. The team was just not good enough. Maybe it’s hard to retrofit one of the most popular attractions of all time especially when you have constraints (some that are self imposed) like not being able to use the best characters/ songs from the movie and having to do it all in existing infrastructure. With all of that said, there is no excuse for some of these things like the scene in question or some of the signage. Then let’s not forget they chose to film a POV and share it with the world a month before the ride opened. That means they were proud of it or at least found it passable. Not sure why some people just can’t call a spade a spade.
As a fan of Tiana’s movie, I’m pleased so far. Looking forward to trying it in person!It's been nice seeing the forum unite in our disdain for this new iteration. It's so bad that everyone is like wait... if you were gonna gut Splash, you should have done better than this.
This redo doesn't please Splash fans or Tiana fans. It's a lose lose.
Opening in 2030: Tiana’s Bayou Kingdom, the long-awaited 5th gate.Lies! We all know Bob Iger has multiple accounts on this forum and is eagerly awaiting our feedback to help him determine the future of the company!
Change is hard. And your examples are silly — neither Cinderella or Ariel spent their movie pining to do those things. Tiana’s big dream was to run a business.I love the idea that they decided to give Disney's first African American princess an attraction, but it was The creative team that made the decision to not show Tiana as a princess... she is now just a lady who runs an employee owned foods factory... that needs a band for a party....they have taken away the sweet dreaming girl we loved and replaced her with someone else... older, different dreams...changed.
They never did that to any of the other Disney Princesses... We never saw Cinderella at 35 deciding she wants to be an adventurer.... or Ariel after having kids of her own decide to open a Sailing school... The Princesses, and basically all Disney characters live in the tmelines of their stories....and should.
That is a big miss. He should be blasting away in the finale.It feels like a missed opportunity that in a ride all about musical animals, Louis doesn’t play his trumpet once. He just holds it in the finale
It’s like they were putting the finishing touches on the ride and realized they forgot signage. So they sent an intern to the UPS store.The difference between the entrance signs is downright depressing;

It all makes sense now!
The empty areas in the ride with nothing happening.
The generic intern crafted signage.
THEY RAN OUT OF MONEY!
They are so penny wise and dollar foolish when building a theme park attraction that they are STUCK WITH for decades!
Its too bad they don't fund attractions like they do their movies; a seemingly unlimited money supply, many hundreds of millions dollars, most of the time over budget, with the re writes, re shoots over and over, post production, tens of millions to market a move everyone forgets a month after it leaves the theater.
Not a screen. The weird effect is because it looks like someone took a picture of their monitor instead of screenshotting.Is that second one a screen? Or was the photo just taken on a phone?
Totally agree, they have plenty of ineptitude in TWDC these days.That would make some sense of the terrible signage but then again most of the places they put the signage didn’t need any in the first place. So I’m sticking with ineptitude for now.
If Louis freezes up after three days of regular operation I’d hate to see what happens when he gets a little wetWhat would it take to carve something with Louis getting wet?
I don’t think they know how to spend their budgets wisely. I think making more with less is something the new generation of the imagineers never learned from the older onesTotally agree, they have plenty of ineptitude in TWDC these days.
Maybe both ineptitude and they ran out of money?
Maybe the ineptitude caused them to run out of money, spending in the wrong places?
You say that but…No one should take anything posted on this site personal, some folks are passionate and some are (sadly rude) but that only proves humans are posing here and not AI.
We must remember, this is just a fun discussion forum and nothing we say on these board make and difference in TWDC and in the world.
