Again, that’s an opinion, not a fact. For some better means more aesthetically pleasing (I find these animatronics to look good about equal to Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox in terms of cartoonish and reflective of the animation medium in a visually pleasing way, yet realistic in movements). Advanced perhaps in the parts they use, but plenty of older animatronics carry realistic movements despite having older parts and what not.

That is very fair. I think plenty of older animated movies look better than current ones.

Even animation of figures and how it is done matters.

Not so much semantics. Subjective was the poster's point.
Which I disagree to the point it’s not worth replying to. The new AAs are legit cutting edge technology. When you break down the stats and their capabilities, they outperform in every way. That’s not subjective, those are facts. The ride, as lovely as it was, is gone. Disney EASILY could have botched this and as much as a tiny percent of Disney Parks fans hope otherwise, this is going to be a massive success for Disney.

Now THIS is what Disney should be doing promo-wise.
To add to my own post...
I love this because it reminds me of my original fascination with Disney when I was little.
When I would videos of the AA's on The Wonderful World of Disney, and when I first went to WDW the year it opened and saw Pirates, Haunted Mansion, 20K, and Jungle Cruise.
When the Disney parks were like no place else on earth.
It's the "magic" I wanted to introduce to my sons when I first took them to WDW some 15 years ago.

With passholder VIP days ending June 26, I'm taking a lucky guess Tiana will open after.

From a new article at the LA Times:

"Expect Tiana’s Bayou Adventure to be full of large-scale show scenes. Press were shown four different iterations of Tiana. Early in the attraction she’ll greet guests from a perch, then as the ride continues, she’ll get closer to passengers — in one instance even directing a critter band. The attraction will culminate in a giant Mardi Gras musical celebration. Characters from the film, including Tiana’s friend Charlotte La Bouff — adorned in a pink, felt-like dress — and a regal Eudora (Tiana’s mother) will welcome guests into the final scene."

Did anybody else notice Louis’s tail sticking out of the log Tiana is sitting on in the video? I think this is a Brer Butt reference and will probably be placed just before the Laughin Place drop.

Splash is and will always be my favorite attraction (or at least in the rotation with HM and TOT), and I can say that I’m impressed. These look like some quality figures, and it was nice to see in that video that it looks imagineering has gone back to their roots.

“Early in the attraction she’ll greet guests from a perch” hm, where could this be?
