Do we think they actually listened to feedback for once? This poster was unanimously hated when they first revealed it, even by some of the more hardcore defenders of the ride. I typically don't agree with the "it was supposed to be bad until they received backlash" comments, but in this particular instance I wouldn't be surprised if that was actually what happened. Good on them for making it right.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but have they uncovered the opening into the finale from the railroad?

Yup! See here:

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

nice to have this view back.

From the site we don't say, a much better ride poster has been put up at the entrance to MK-

Much better than that yellow mess they tried first. They need to burn that one to be certain it's dead.

Welp…just got off the ride. That was…somewhat underwhelming.

I can’t figure out if this thread is okay for a spoilery review as I have some thoughts.

somewhat underwhelming.

why the qualifier……. better to just declare it straight up.

Yes, Tiana underwhelms; one huge yawn!

All those impressive moving figures and yet they say and do nothing of substance. Total waste of good AA

 

[flyerjab]

was told the jumping waters effect through the frog trip mushroom marsh or whatever the heck it is, has been broken already this week. Can anyone confirm or seen it running?

It’s working.

While Tiana is no Penguin Trek coaster at SeaWorld, the third of three coasters built in the last three years at SeaWorld, Tiana was, is, and always will be a fun log flume

SeaWorld now has more coasters than any theme park in Florida. How crazy is that.

If only they’d learn efficiency in the load/unload processes

I am looking forward to visiting. Its been a while, at that time, the issue did not stand out to me, but that was three coasters ago, LOL

Last year I went and got their express pass or whatever they call it and it was still excruciating seeing how long it takes them to load and unload

The one thing I am very curious about is how they retcon TBA right in the middle of what is Frontierland. That area is a thematic mess. I know similar could be said about Splash being next to BTM and the rest of Frontierland. This is more egregious though. I would be fine if they were creating some sort of mini New Orleans area, but I haven’t heard that at all.

I like when a ‘land’ defined and held together by cohesive themes remains as such. I also know that Disney has their reasons why they felt Splash had to go away. However, this addition in Frontierland just makes no sense thematically.

I recall there were rumors flying around before the retheme opened that they were gonna turn Pecos Bill's into a Tiana restaurant and make a little New Orleans subland.

Pecos Bill retheme thread

It's unconfirmed if it'll be Tiana, but it's still in development apparently:

As recently as this week there is continued chatter backstage that Pecos is still happening. I have not directly heard anything recently either way.
