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

I just don't see them having that level and skill here.

It's the same or similar skill since it's all WDI. The question is whether or not the ambition, story, budget, and suitability of the adapted spaces will be there.

Based on what little we’ve seen, it seems to be going for a more realistic style. Fake foliage filling the old sets.

Not necessarily - Pandora, Cars Land,
and Galaxies Edge are all very different and each reflect the positives and negatives of the lead designers.

Right, but the assertion that Tokyo will automatically have better scenes because Tokyo always has more skill behind it is false. The same pools of people design attractions for Disney parks everywhere, some certainly more or less talented, as you say. But the differentiator is more OLC's commitment to doing things right and spending what that takes, not that they have exclusive access to special Imagineers.

In 2001 Disney opened a park in California, in asinine fashion, with a California theme creating mass ridicule and embarrassment. Months later in fall of 2001 Tokyo(OLC) opened Disney Sea to raving reviews.

What would account for this staggering difference in quality? Did imagineers have a lot of influence in the direction of each park or overall themes?

I’m super surprised we haven’t really gotten a clear view of any of the show scenes yet.

I’m sure with as impressive AA’s as this seems to have they will be great, just thought they’d show them off.

That’s because you are a functioning adult and do not look to be offended throughout your day, especially over the nonsense on a Disney fan board.

Where are we on being a functioning adult and spending a significant portion of your day trolling Disney fan boards?

Actually only takes a few minutes to catch up here, but thanks for asking!

Oh, and I'm not offended

Another day of being confused why certain people are still allowed on this forum after weeks of trolling. Does this website even have a ban feature for moderators? Why does this site allow this behavior time and time again? Purging the same conversations over and over again does nothing, get these people out of here

I sure hope you’re not talking about me. I just made a joke and everyone’s flying off the handle.

I have a confession to make. Up until last night, I had not seen the Princess and the Frog in full. Let me say, it is a fantastic film! I loved the messages and the art style was beautiful. The music was good. Overall, a great experience. I look forward to seeing how they incorporate the beautiful art style from the film into the show scenes!

I had never seen the film either.
When this retheme was official, I decided to watch it for homework.
I figured I shouldn't judge the validity or lock thereof for using that movie for this ride if I didn't watch the movie.
I was happily surprised how enjoyable the film was, and how great it and the songs could work for this ride.
It gave me a lot of hope.

 

[Incomudro]

That's not me. I've always got a smile on my face! Where would we be if everyone took everything on these boards seriously?

I love your posts!
Your humor isn't lost on me, and you are not one of the trolls.

OLC spent 4-5x as much money on DisneySea as Disney spent on California Adventure. That's why.

California Adventure cost $600 million. DisneySea cost 335 billion yen, which in 2000-2001 would be the equivalent of roughly $2.8 billion.

They were filming the other night, and I would not be shocked to see a POV drop within a week before previews so the official footage is first. I'm trying to get more confirmation on this, and if I'm able to share it, I will. I'd take this as an unofficial spoiler warning, just in case.

I was banned temporarily from the DAS thread so, yes, they do.

Just click ignore and move on.

Loved Splash but it was time! I am super excited for this new attraction. I have a preview pass to ride in June and I can't wait!! Princess and The Frog is an excellent movie better than most including Frozen.

Was discussing this with friends outside of here but I figured it would be appropriate. Here's how long the conversion from Splash to Bayou took compared to other rethemes/replacements

Mission Breakout conversion is wild still. How fast they did that.

Part of it was because they started before ToT even closed which is crazy
