News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress
- Thread starter wdwmagic
- Start date
I don’t think the sign is thematically messy.
I do think it’s more Six Flags than Disney.
However I have been told in this thread ( not by you ) that the small details just don’t matter that much.
I guess I should just lower my expectations.

I agree that small details matter, and I too think the sign could look better (as is the case with most of the signage we’ve seen for this ride).
There is nothing wrong with criticism per se. That isn’t what I and others take issue with.

What’s wrong with the poster having a pre-conceived expectation of the ride?
It’s no more ridiculous to have such a negative outlook as it is a positive one. (You know we have posters here over the moon positive about a ride they have never been on.)
For example my expectation for this ride from what I have seen so far, is good to great. Let’s call it an 7.5 - 9. Of course that number will be cemented once l ride it. It could change to a 5 or a 10.
My biggest complaint in this whole situation is that to me a 9 will be a failure. Splash was a 10, and I see no reason to start replacing rides like Splash or HM unless you’re building a 10.
I’ll have this conversation with you Buford since your always very reasonable.

Expecting the worst (which people have a right to do) is very different from expressing a derisive sentiment such as the following:
It would be pretty ridiculous for someone to post, "Good news is we only have six more weeks until we can 'officially' heap praise on it without the pathetic 'But, but, but it's a poor replacement for Splash!!!!" squealing about every post." But, as you know, there are no such posts here, because even those who are very excited for this attraction realise it would be premature and absurd to declare it a success before it's been unveiled.

Some people have gotten very close to declaring it a success before it's been unveiled. Not trying to get into it here, but there's no denying that the level of enthusiasm for some people has bordered on mania in a similar way to the negativity of Epcot81Fan.

But the point is that they've held back from doing so, whereas multiple posters have declared the ride to be a failure.

To you and many others, but not to everyone. I never saw the charm in the "critters" and I'm looking forward to something different with a bit more energy. Then there is an entire host of guests who were at best indifferent to the theming and were riding it because flume rides are popular.

The person here who is most looking forward to the ride has to be @Drew the Disney Dude, and I don’t recall him saying a single snide thing about those who feel differently from him. That’s class right there.
Plenty of log flumes across the world. Splash was considered the best.
That was for reasons above and beyond the ride system.
I appreciate the fact that it wasn’t your cup of tea.
However it was enough peoples cup of tea to be the goat.

Everyone is different. I’m more trepidatious than excited, because I truly loved Splash and want TBA to be a worthy successor.
All of us will find out soon enough what we’re actually dealing with.
I knew you would have a good word.
Trepidatious.
I’m hoping to be doing a fist pump in the air, but feel more than likely I’ll just be throwing darts at my Bob Iger poster.

This very fun log flume ride will be just fine and will be MOBBED when it opens because it’s something NEW to experience.
Well maybe not MOBBED because they will probably start will boarding groups and ILL
only to begin with and NO STANDBY.

I'm ready to declare it a success. It's a water ride, in central Florida. It doesn't matter what theme/IP it is. When you're standing there wondering, "what should we do?", and your face is melting, Tianas it is! That's success in Disneys eyes.

It’s just an elaborate long term refurb
People will line up. Because splash mountain is a good ride. Full stop.
And those parks are underequipped and disgruntlement is high. Connect the dots.
The question is - what do they spin after this?
They got nothing
