The Boothill Boys being replaced with a screen featuring that ugly CGI Mama Odie makes my skin crawl.- Five geese and three frogs being replaced by one Louis
- Raccoon/Porcupine and sweeping rabbits becoming screens
- Br'er Rabbit, Fox, and Bear in the bee cave (and all the spinning bees) being replaced by Mondo and a giant bottle.
- Br'er Rabbit being held by Br'er Fox and the Boothill Boys being replaced by screens.
I expect the Disneyland version to have even more spots once populated by animatronics replaced with nothing. The screen in the Laughin' Place with the terrifying CGI Tiana and Louis heads (by the way, the CGI Louis doesn't even look anything like the animatronic, much less Louis in the movie) will probably wind up replacing the storks.
Oh, and don't forget the scene at the end of Brer Fox being attacked by Brer Gator being replaced by... nothing.
Especially since the fancy A100 Tiana animatronics do nothing but stand there and flail their arms with the same nonchalant expression on their face. What was the point?What's more, they opted for underutilized high-caliber AA big figures that practically do nothing and paired them with the severely-limited motion figures that don't even rival the range of motion found in Spirit Halloween decorations. Seems they'd have been better off finding a happy medium between the two types. Hindsight. In doing so they probably could have given us a plethora of figures throughout the attraction instead of the sprinkling of poorly-staged vignettes where Tiana and Louis contribute little to the actual "story". Such a cluster.
