Tiana's Bayou Adventure Review: A Mixed Bag of Magic and Missed Opportunities​

A very fair review, unafraid to point out the shortcomings, including the waste of the good animatronics. Which I was glad to see. But I was surprised to see the same ol’ media description of the previous attraction and its “controversy,” which for 99% of guests was nonexistent. No one is checking to make sure the Disney news sites talk previous attraction in a negative way, right?? But it’s almost like clockwork that they all use the same descriptions.

Am I the only one who thinks static figures take away more than they add? It makes the ride feel like a low budget local amusement park at points. Like, what am I supposed to take away from him? Splash Mountain did more with 'less' in these sections.
Yep I would agree with that. It either looks broken or budget hit. I don't think it adds anything.

Why are they hyping up a completely static figure that does nothing
Because there was little response to the original critters marketing and they have to sell merch?

It's like why Orange Bird or Spike the Bee have such a cult following. Clever marketing push for an underused or represented character.

Orange Bird has a very interesting history with the resort, is the mascot of a fan favorite snack, and in my opinion has a very creative design. There’s enough like about him even if he’s not much of a personality and doesn’t do much in the parks now.

The armadillo is not particularly interested and does… actually nothing at all.

And idk who Spike the Bee is lol

Orange Bird was an obscure part of the history of WDW but was only truly elevated to almost icon like status when it was revitalized through marketing. Solely for the desire was to sell stuff. Nothing different with what they'd like to get from Lari (Larry) the Armadillo.

Lari the Armadillo Backstory

Ted Robledo wrote this about everyone’s favorite armadillo. I guess they were getting questions. But after reading this, one question still remains…WHY?
