What is Tiana's about.....

[Rich T]

There is zero tension across the ride.
At the end we all kind of shrugged our shoulders and said, that was ok but let's not do it again.

Yippee she got her restaurant.......but everything else was so disjointed.

I can't believe it cost so much to build.

Once was more than enough for me. Despite the flume itself being fun (still), the “story”, to me, feels so pandering, timid and clueless that I have no interest in riding it again. As a huge fan of TPatF, I find the ride insulting and obnoxious… and incredibly frustrating, because with a bit of better storytelling this could have been wonderful. That finale scene looks great, but to me there’s no emotional impact at all because the party feels unearned. It’s a payoff for something that never happened.

I mean, even the POOH ride has a storm and Heffalumps to provide some sense of overcoming obstacles to reach the story’s end. TBA has nothing but nonstop vapid, mindless smiling.

Does another movie from a different studio have to give that answer..

KFP had excitement and a villain to overcome. The message works because it’s earned.

TBA is all message, no adventure. That’s the problem. It should be called “Tiana’s Happy Message Logs.”

Is it true that they didn't totally modernize the ride controls, that it still breaks down often?

Oh they "should" have had some help from the "other side" and take a wrong turn in the bayou..But, that's none of his buisness...

All the damn time......

That's what we said.

well why not, the demolished all of splash mountain, would have been a perfect opportunity to put the latest ride controls in. Seriously, not even one wire from the 1980's should have remained, just the track and skeleton

It’s like the Seinfeld of rides. It’s about nothing.

I like Seinfeld. Maybe this should have turned into that.

By far you have the best adjectives to describe this ride. I wish someone could send this comment to WDI/ Disney. And you're someone that was on board with the change the whole time and loves PatF. This is the kind of feedback they need.

Replace "Dark Side" with "Bayou", "Band", and "Shrinking down" and you get the idea

It's about pressure.
