Here’s a look at the set-up as Disney films ride reactions this morning:

Are they seriously trying to film people's reactions? That just seems like trying really hard to show this was a success. Damage control in a way

Seems like working at TBA is a hit with the ladies.

They do it with pretty much every new ride lol
Didn't they do it with Rise? With MMRR? It's pretty standard

The queue music is good but makes it even more disappointing we got them hitting 'play' on the movie soundtrack for the ride. If they had recorded originals for the interior show scenes it would have made me give even a smidge of credit.

I can't believe it. After four long years of fighting, bickering, name-calling, and yelling, we're finally there. Merry Tiana Day to you and your kin!

The window from the railroad has been uncovered offering the view into the finale scene.

And now you'll see why they  really rethemed the ride ($$$$$$$)

Tiana's Buy-You Adventure $$$

LOL No. The quoted like is simply sloppy writing, allowing you the opportunity to display your cognitive bias. You are correct that there are two contradicting ideas presented on either side of the comma. They just need to be married.

An easy way to fix this would be; "Tiana brings much needed representation to the park, while resonating with guests of all ages and backgrounds." Meaning that although she brings representation to one specific group, she is also able to resonate with all guests in other ways. I then expect the writer to continue on about how she resonates with everyone (her dreams, her optimism, her overcoming of hardships etc.)

This could lead into, and support, a new third idea that "it's important to mirror the audience's diversity."

It's the moderator's opinion. He can write what he wants, however he wants. So there.

My favorite thing in the backstory is that imagineering did some amazing field work to “validate” that armadillos in fact live in the bayou. Thank goodness they took that one picture of an armadillos. Otherwise lari would have been missing.

Armadillos in the bayou you say? Poppycock!

Also if each animal has a unique personality, I can’t really tell because they all are smiling and all they do sway. None of that backstory translated into anything visually.

And if lari is such a great character (and I understand that he’s referenced in notes and things on bulletin boards) but there should be some visual, non text, clues of his scavenging in the queue and more times where his head occasionally slowly pops out around a tree stump or from the ceiling or with a snorkel or their favorite animated in the background screens. What could have been a fun I spy game now just begs the question what is this giant angry looking armadillo doing here?

My theory is he's a remnant from the "lost trumpet" plot. Like throughout the ride we would've had "Uh oh Lari has the trumpet again, gotta follow him down this cliff". But someone thought he was good enough to carry over into the new story.
