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

[Tha Realest]

Why the hell is the banner on the outside of the show building? I can’t understand what they’re thinking or going for.

Can’t wait to hear someone say, “It’s not for you.”

 

[Tha Realest]

I think there are plenty of examples of them not caring. When it comes to TBA it seems like they just don’t get it.

You can still are a lot about something but have a completely, fundamentally broken way of achieving certain objectives.

We often hear someone “understood the assignment.” I have to wonder what the assignment was here?

OK, but none of this has anything to do with gaslighting.

I've explained it previously. It was meant as an analogy for when a ride makes us feel one thing and then Disney tries and tell us that we should be feeling something completely different and contrary to the ride's original design. That our internal feeling is incorrect.

 

[LittleBuford]

Not to steal @Drew the Disney Dude's own thunder but, new banner alert:

The quotation doesn’t work and the design is scarcely any better. They really need to stop using fonts that look so obviously computer-generated (I’m referring to the text under “Welcome”).

There are plenty of thrill rides that frame the experience as happy and joyous rather than scary. Whether the effect works or not is dependent on many factors; I don’t think one can speak of a single correct or “natural” experience.

so believe it or not you guys, most rides at Disney do in fact have a cheesy dialog played while you wait in line!

Smugglers Run, Incredicoaster, guardians of the galaxy, etc.

Those are terrible attractions as far as story… honestly some of WDI’s worse.

Because she can talk to animals, she's currently trying to poach chef Remy

Whoa! So she’s the villan! What an unexpected plot twist!!!

Do those lantern lights look softer in person? Where's the warmth? The fiery glow?

Maybe they are on a dimmer ya think?

Since they are in testing it’s possible they are at 100% and will be adjusted.

Remember, for many years each ride cost extra money to ride at all. Consider it a blessing that that's not the case anymore

In those days, the parks cost just a few dollars to enter. Everyone could afford it. Grandparents did not have to pay for rides they wouldn’t ride.

The ticket books were a bargain. Everyone paid for exactly what they wanted, wasted no money, needed no reservations and had a blast at a place that genuinely gave them far more than their money’s worth.

The cost of visiting a Disney park today is not a blessing. The upcharging and the catering to the wealthy is not a blessing.

…. and the plague of bubble wands at MK is not a blessing.

I thought you got so many tickets with your admission and then could buy more? Not sure though - I wasn’t alive for that era!

Also to add to that. The days of ticket books included FREE attractions. If the attraction had a big sponsor, that meant it was free.

I got to grow up with DL in the 60’s and 70’s and it was paradise. Yes, in those days, Ticket Books generally came at 2 price tiers (related to the number of ride tickets), with each tier having prices for kids, tweens/teens (“juniors”), and adults. But there was also a very cheap admission-only option for people who just wanted to stroll, dine and enjoy the free entertainment. Inside the park, extra ticket books, individual ride tickets (ranging from 10 cents to about 85 cents) could be purchased, as well as—my favorite—books of all “E” tickets.

Neither of these things bother me as much as it’s placement.

 

[dmc493]

The way it's hung and where it's hung is throwing me for a loop, taut between the rocks and not hung from above or draped.... maybe it's just me

 

[Ghost93]

I see the "happy place" in the banner as a successor to the "laughing place."

And yes I know the quote came from Walt, but the average park guest doesn't know that.

Please stay on topic. And the next person who posts anything about cranes will be in time-out.

I must have missed something. Aren't cranes part of the construction process? I'm confused as to why they would be banned.

Although I haven't seen cranes in recent photos that Drew has been posting, it seems like they are much further along in construction.
