What did Tony say? I haven’t heard anything
Relevant discussion starts around 50-51 minutes in (though it's worth listening to the entire thing as they do come back to the topic at different points). About 55 minutes in is where he explains how they built up the tension throughout the ride, but especially during the final big lift. And how that fear was necessary to make it work (and the relief afterwards with the grand finale riverboat was the reward). Around 58 minutes, he says hopefully Tiana will also adhere to these same foundational concepts since they're keeping the track intact.
We know now that they have not adhered to those philosophies. And despite him taking a seemingly neutral-ish stance on Tiana (he's probably under at least some sort of NDA here), I have no doubt that Tony is 100% in the know on what they're doing with it. The disdain he has for it and the warnings about its problems come through loud and clear.
