I don't think anyone is arguing that they are trying to hide the drop. I think the argument is that they making it seem less dramatic and downplaying the scary/thrill aspect that had been built up before.

Yes, thank you. This is it exactly.

I'm in awe. And everything is on topic and well-reasoned.

Let's talk about this ride photo, shall we?

This is the representation of the characters on the ride photo? We could have had Tiana, Louis, or Mama Odie, and instead we've got the same concept art of critters cut-and-pasted clumsily standing atop the cliff with their instruments.

And then there's this guy:

Multiple people on this forum predicted "I know a shortcut" would be used as the justification for the drop, and sure enough, here it is. Thank God Figment-lite (or should I say "light") is here with his "royal we" to show us the way.

My hope: the sign is actually a trick by Ray's family to try to kill us all in retribution for Ray's death, but Mama Odie swoops in at the last minute and saves us. See how desperate I am for some stakes in this attraction?

Maybe they are saving the main characters for the 3 Dimension frame you can purchase like the ones posted above. Not sure what the market is like for physical frames in the digital age.

Are the bear and rabbit in the exact same poses/looks as the concept art they released? Wonder if the other concept art characters can appear and they are randomized to add a Hitchhiking Ghost aspect. "Oh look, we got the Otter this time!"

Oh jeez. My brain has been so rotted by the last few hundred pages that I saw that typo and thought the weather vane was being brought up again. :hungover:

Holy crap! You did it! You figured out a way to incorporate the friends on the other side without trying to explain Facilier escaping their wrath! Ray's come back from the other side with them and he's piiiiiiissed! :hilarious:

Modern Disney does love twist villains, so one of Ray's family members turning out to be evil right before the drop isn't THAT insane of an idea, lol.

Perhaps you could shed some light. The post referred to the attraction poster's composition, which was previously shared in here. It made no hyperbolic statements or references to other attractions.

I also referenced the ride's photo, which was not censored and how it's depiction of the final drop seemed less severe than was the previous standard for the drop. No judgement calls were made nor did I say the name of the attraction which must not be mentioned. It was a simple analysis of how they chose to depict the drop in the ride photo compared to other similar attraction photos.

You may continue to troll me, but if you would care to point out how the information I shared in the post was cause for reporting and censoring, please do let me know as I honestly do not understand how it went against the thread's rules and previously authorized content. I was very deliberate about how I responded and so I am obviously missing some aspect.

More interesting is now there are 3 across all parks, so ppl will have to choose which 2 they want if they had planned to hop.

Had not thought about that. Something is telling me it's only remaining during previews but come the 28th it will just be one. But who knows. Seems like a big middle finger to a lot of people if Disney said you have the option to only ride one unless you want to ILL.

In terms of the marketing, I'm assuming most people even looking closely at the marketing have gone to Disney before and rode Splash Mountain, likely multiple times. We know what to expect from the hill and they haven't changed the height of the hill. Disney's not trying to sell the drop now. They need to sell the new story.

When I rode Splash Mountain before, I could have cared less about the story. I had no ideas who the characters were, just knew them from the ride. I was waiting on the hill. This may have been true for many guests, so Disney had to sell the drop in merchandising. Now when I ride, I am interested in what the story will be as I am familiar with PATF. We will have to see what happens when the ride opens.
