I still get so annoyed with advanced AA terminology. Yeti was the same and look at him now. If you can’t keep it working it’s no point in the end!

I think that was more the weight, right? It was cracking the foundation or something?

You got bored on a 12 minute ride with 4 drops and 68 audio animatronic figures? Maybe the whole theme park thing isn’t for you.
The AAs weren't very engaging conversationalists.

It just doesn't have the same pacing and storytelling as the version I grew up with. Disneyland's is zippy, has better music, and more to see in a tighter ride-time. WDW's version is hampered by the wide boats. It makes it feel like a cheap POTC rather than the unique ride that is DL's.

Do we think Louis’s missing trumpet could be a side plot in the attraction still?
Now that I think about what the missing ingredient is (musical critters), and what the rumour of the original story was (missing trumpet), I wonder if that was always a side plot intention, that became interpreted or spread around as the main plot?

Probably a statue of Louis, and then when you first see him he'll explain why he was standing so still a minute ago when you saw him in the garden.

Not to get too far in the weeds, but the Yeti and these new figures have next to nothing in common.
Further, most of the yeti's movement (both the rise and lunge) come from the articulated sled behind him... not the figure itself. I believe this motion was achieved hydraulically as well, not via electric motors like much of the new designs.

I understand they have next to nothing in common physically. But they share a lot in common with early hype.
The most advanced AAs you’ve ever scene and, to quote Rhode, “You’ve never scene something so big move so fast.” That quote was concerning the yeti. And for the giant majority, they’ve never even scene the Yeti move. Such a shame.
My point was the new AAs will only be impressive if they work. Our Yeti is not impressive in its current state.

Undoubtedly it’s because he saw a t-Rex behind our log

No idea why it wasn’t announced this week, but I have yet to hear it is delayed beyond the first half of June. I was trying to get someone to tell me if an AA went
but I’m told all is well.
but I’m told all is well.

So when is it going to open then? If it even has been delayed?

I don’t believe it has been delayed. Been hearing a June opening for a bit now.
I can see June, maybe early July if something pops up at the 11th hour.

I think on paper WDW’s is superior. It’s longer, more polished, better sets, better story, everything is physically larger, etc. However, I think DL has some unique charm that was never replicated because it was the prototype that was a little rougher around the edges. That’s why the DL version has more of a cult following and people prefer it just out of personal taste. I dare say that people liked it BECAUSE it wasn’t as conventionally ‘good’ as WDW

It says Tiana’s Tacos. She’s diversifying to ride out the Depression. We can stop wondering what came of Brer Chicken. She pairs well with the tomatillo harvested by Slippin’ Falls.

That sums up lots of WDW vs. DL. Disneyland is almost always more charming than WDW.
I grew up riding the WDW splash and when everything was working - I think I prefer it. But towards the end DL was in such better shape my last memories definitely make it a better attraction in my mind.
