News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

[Magicart87]

Shrinking the mountain is foolish too.
I could care less about the reality of a feature that high in New Orleans.
I care more about the exterior of the ride having a visual impact.
And they blew that.

Pretty sure the goal is to make it less intimidating.

Pretty sure the goal is to make it less intimidating.

While I’m sure that is part of the goal, it’s most likely also to address the simple fact that there is nothing this high in a “bayou”(New Orleans)

 

[Brer Panther]

It looks so much less visually interesting without the tree on top.

 

[JoeCamel]

We know it's a salt mine but what exactly is the "mountain" supposed to be now? Personally, I think it's a hill. A wet hill to be exact, though it may also be a mound of dirt.

No one knows. (Not sure they know)

Fire ant mound.....

I still say New Orleans is a horrible setting for a log flume ride.

Can't believe they're turning it into baby's first dark ride.

“Voila! Nip the tip!”

EDIT - would that make it a *Kosher* salt mine?

Apparently ...

Unless RnRC is going to be a part of a retheme of a larger scale area/expansion, a Muppets makeover makes a TON of sense. It's future proofing for decades+.

Y’all will probably riot when I say this but if RNRC is rethemed, it should be…Taylor Swift. She’s truly this generations “artist”. I’m no swiftie but I don’t mind some of her music either. I can guarantee the mobs of Gen Z that will descend on HS will please Disney

I thought the are going with the “cancel proof” muppets ?

I think this would be great. This way they can get rid of muppet vision 3d, make a mini muppets land based in hollywood, move on with galaxy s edge and tie in star tours

It needs to be more jamming rock n roll not pop happy music

 

[Bocabear]

I think the original idea of Mama Odie's tree and wrecked boat on top told a much more engaging story... than no tree of any sort and a water tower....And seriously I don't care if they have a mountain as the ride structure... It does not have to look like real New Orleans... There are no tiaras on water towers either...or alligators that play trumpet and talk for that matter... So let's not get too worried about reality...The Tiana's Foods story seems so contrived it really does kind of ruin the story and characters for me...
We all fell in love with the girl with a dream of opening a restaurant...not the savvy business woman running a manufactured foods conglomerate....

While there’s merit to that, Disney would need an artist who is marketable to this generation. I can’t think of a millenial/ Gen Z rock act that really would garner the kind of attention and hype that Swift would bring. Maaaaybeeee Blink 182?

As someone who likes some Blink 182, just no. If they wanted to make it a 'must do' for Milennials and Gen Z, it's Swift.

Agreed. Rock isn’t as mainstream as it used to be.

IP mandate. At the absolute most, maaaaaaybe they will one day make rides that they think they can turn into a movie later, a la Pirates and Jungle Cruise. But I doubt we’ll ever see a collaboration like they did with Aerosmith again.

For the most part yes, but again, the money would literally print itself if Disney got Swift. That tour literally had resales in the thousands. So the fans would definitely cough up 140 plus a 20 dollar lightning lane to get on that ride

They would. Think Rock N Rollercoaster: The Eras Tour feat Taylor Swift.

Would print money. I think Taylor did some docus for D+ already too. EDIT: She has & has also signed on with Disney to direct a feature film.
