MK Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

[MagicHappens1971]

I wouldn't assume anything here. If TBA is absurdly popular, and it almost certainly will be especially in the first several years of operation, it'll probably keep it. There's not really any set in stone rule to indicate they wouldn't do multiples per park. It's just based on recent trends. But ILL itself is still a *relatively* new system, and Disney is very greedy and determined to make things miserable.

I understand what you're saying and I'm not saying I'm certain one way or the other. It seems the direction to pull away from having multiple ILL's was due to the lack of normal capacity for G+. Of course there are no rules set in stone.

I don't think Disney is determined to make things miserable, I just think it's a byproduct of a broken system. If you know how to play it, it can be very effective.

No, they don't look alike at all. I suspect the finale building is something Tiana either built from scratch, or maybe a rundown plantation mansion nearby the salt dome that she bought and had fixed up. In the leaked renders, the metal railing is adorned with decorative designs of what looks like bell peppers and either garlic or onions. That seems like the sort of detail she would install to go with her food/restaurant theme.

Considering the reason for the change, I'm not sure that would be a good choice

Whatever happened with the idea of a Dooky Chase's restaurant at Disneyland? It seemed like a nice idea, but it seems to have fizzled out.

Am I the only person who thinks the facade looks great?

I'm a modern Disney hater and the whole project seems to be going much better than I expected.

And, while they’re at it, they can ad an Uncle Remus cabin with his AA…!!!!!

Is the building featured in the finale of Tiana's Bayou Adventure Charlotte's Mansion? Here are some comparison photos:

Both Buildings feature imperial staircases and are somewhat in/near the bayou.

I think the recently installed banner confirms it's Tiana and Naveen's house!

Ugh, I was hoping that banner wouldn't make it into the final product (it wasn't present on the WDW render)...

Has anyone heard anything on the potential for virtual queue. I can only see this as being a nightmare if they decide to use that, because we all know the capacity is unheard and we know the queue can handle a good couple hour wait.

between the food chopping mural and the cheap temporary looking banner over it......not impressed.

There will be a VQ. End of story

Don't really need confirmation for this, there's no way it would open without VQ. Even the admin here I believe is certain of this.

Same here but after that food mural on the fence does it really matter?

The fence looks terrible, and makes this banner look even worse as it throws off the symmetry and color.

I hear ya. I’ve reached the acceptance phase with most things regarding this retheme. Particularly the exterior. It’s like when you re team is down 30 in the 4th quarter. It’s Ova.

I’ve always really hated that fence both on Splash and now possibly on this. Looks very temporary.

 

[UNCgolf]

It'll be TRON & TBA as the top two contenders, with TRON ditching Virtual Queue before too long.

SDMT will end up like Slinky (on Genie+) with even crazier waits.

I think it would make more sense for Disney to keep SDMT as ILL and move TRON to Genie+ -- I'd be surprised if the overall demand for SDMT wasn't higher than for TRON, even with TRON being much newer.

 

[UNCgolf]

Not a fan of the banner at all; it's a mistake.

It's relatively minor, though, considering the majority of other things we've seen look really good.

Was hoping it'd at least be revised to be more succinct. Somewhere between the bland, wordy banner and the bombastic veggy confetti fence there's a quality concept waiting to be realized. The exterior of this attraction definitely has a "too many cooks in the kitchen" vibe. All these individual additions don't quite meld together to create a unified design.

Oh well.
