Tiana's Bayou Adventure: Disneyland Watch & Discussion

[Brer Panther]

SpongeBob and Patrick at the very least endearing. Louis is insufferable.

I like Louis, but I still think the "Louis can't find his trumpet" storyline sounds stupid. Especially if the joke in every other scene is going to be "it's RIGHT THERE and Louis doesn't see it! Laugh at how stupid he is!" over and over again. Which is also incredibly insulting to Louis' intelligence.

Wont say much....But I heard that there may be an A & B plot situation. Similar to MMRR.

My main thing is that I hope whatever they come up with isn't a parody of current Splash (Which is what the Jim Hill rumor sounds like). That would be incredibly disrespectful for a multitude of reasons. lol.

I suspect Louis's lost trumpet will merely be a complication on the journey to Mardi Gras — not the main storyline.

Did Disney themselves say the ride would center around Louis’ lost trumpet?

I do not think so, Disney has kept it very simple, along the lines of "Luis and Tiana are preparing for their first Mardi Gras performance." And specifically those two so far, Naveen was in that one artwork, but I'm sure they'll confirm more soon.

The Trumpet plot is mainly something people ran with after Jim Hill. No trusted insiders have mentioned anything on the plot either- at least not to my knowledge.

(P.S. - New name made me chuckle)

That’s what I thought. I remember Disney being very vague and saying something about Mardi Gras and that it’s going to take place after the film. The concept art is kinda confusing though, as it shows Tiana appearing to be a boat tour guide with Naveen. Not sure what this has to do with Mardi Gras yet. I don’t know what’s happening.

Regarding the new name, thank you lol. The name was given to me recently here, so I decided to run with it. I’ll change it back at some point haha.

They haven't, despite the ubiquity of the rumor.

I think if the music’s great, most storytelling weaknesses, trumpet-centric or not, can be forgiven (see original Splash Mtn.). PatF has a such a strong song lineup… I really hope Imagineering goes to town with it.

To the Splash Announcement, a happy 2 years.
It's caused some laughter, some tears.
As this retheme (maybe? Maybe not?) nears,
Let's all come to this thread, for news and some jeers

They need to retheme it ASAP. Splash Mountain has been radicalizing innocent youth into far-right extremists for way too long!

Give it about a week.

For real. The singing geese have been seen marching with tiki torches chanting “Alligators will not replace us.” Scary stuff.

One of the most shocking pieces of information to come from the January 6th committee hearings was that 95% of the people who stormed the U.S. Capitol confessed to having ridden Splash Mountain. The other 5% were indoctrinated by watching YouTube recordings of the ride-throughs of Splash Mountain. Leaked architectural designs reveal that had the attack succeeded, the rioters would have turned the Capitol into a Briar Patch.

Liz Cheney, who is growing increasingly unpopular with her own party, condemned the decision of so many to ride Splash Mountain and said she had urged her party — with little success — to ride It's a Small World instead.

They don't have to worry. They won't be replaced by alligators.

They won't be replaced by ANYTHING, with the possible exception of screens.

Zippidee Navi Journey River Run: A Princess and the Frog Adventure

 

[Brer Panther]

Y'know, if the retheme is going to take place in New Orleans, I think having the Burrow's Lament/lift hill be turned into Louis encountering the Rougarou would be better than having the voodoo spirits just show up and mess with the riders for no reason.

Zippidee Navi Journey River Run: A Princess and the Frog Adventure

You jest, but it got me thinking and I would absolutely ride an attraction that had the theming and music of Navi River Journey set upon the flume layout of Splash Mountain.

Wait, doesn't Navi only have that one animatronic that barely works?

Posted in the WDW thread, also relevant here.

There are two possible times lots for the Essence Festival, one for July 1st for a presentation about Princess Tiana, and the other is a presentation about WDW on Sunday.


July 1st 2:30pm - 2:50pm CDT
July 3rd 1:00pm - 1:40pm CDT

Let's just hope there's some real information and not just a single drawing.

Haha yeah it’s the one with the one (really good) AA but I hadn’t heard anything on how it’s working
