I doubt that Splash redo costs the same as Epic…

Indeed, try several billion. Diagon Alley was estimated at somewhere around $400 million.

Tiana from what I was told has a hefty budget for overhaul standards. I don't know an exact figure, greater than the initial $30-$40 million figure that was being thrown around back in 2020 before the project drastically changed and became more ambitious. But still well under something as ridiculous as Cosmic Rewind's $500 million.

adding this here as pheneix stated in his rumor and musings thread:
Btw. The Tiana ride will be quite elaborate. Lots of animatronics. Most are not cheap. They did some follow thru on using all that ride path to tell a story of… something. It’s gonna have some cool tech. The big drop is still there.

The technical prowess and production value I anticipate will be very good. Ppl who say it’s a cheap overlay are wrong. To a point. I’ll touch that one later.

And that was in a sea of otherwise extremely depressing (but also fairly accurate) negativity. One constant i've heard from most people is that Tiana should at least be "impressive" in regards to a lot of the details that fans of Splash (and other classic attractions similar to it) value. I'm also no longer particularly concerned about the animatronics situation (quality or even quantity) being a disappointment given what I've heard and what plenty of others have said.

But whether the storyline and all of that can come together to create a logical and quality experience remains to be seen. I'm a bit more skeptical on this. My source is optimistic though, so we'll see.

At least this is one good thing to come out of the switch to Tiana's mountain.

but it is in the old McDonald's French Fry hut...lol Not connected to Tiana Mountain at all....The winning idea would have been putting a Cafe Du Monde style eater actually within the Tiana's Food Co Op Salt Mine and Foods Factory courtyard area...to tie it all together... Or to just make Tall Tale Cafe over into Tiana's Palace and retheme that whole corner to New Orleans riverfront.... Until they can move the real Frontierland to the "Beyond Big Thunder" plot, it is just going to be a strange mish-mash thematically.
but yay, fried doughnuts! take THAT Epic Universe! lol
