The final scene of Splash Mountain was the best in all of the parks. The colors, the song, the vast amount of animatronics was truly special.

Why is Disney so desperate to homogenize the parks? Dino and Indy can both exist.
Honestly though, interest in Indy is waining while dinos have remained relevant ever since their first discovery.
Also, dinos didn’t lose Disney $130M last year.

Outside of Walt himself, Michael was the best CEO Disney has ever had. The “Disney Decade” was the best time the parks have ever experienced. If you have great memories from Disney Parks in the 90/00’s, thank Mike 😊
While Walt should rightfully take the spotlight today, it would be a travesty to not acknowledge the magnificent
@Michael_Eisner
who revitalized the company for an entire generation by emulating Walt's leadership closer than any of us deserved.

These are impressive, more of these should exist in the parks. This is the kind of innovation Walt would be proud of.
But this is not the argument. It never has been.
We’re upset that a ride with great theming, story, and characters was replaced when both could have existed.

People say things like, “At least the ride system still exists!” Since when do we fall in love with mechanics and ride layouts? We fell in love with what the ride was. The story, the characters, the songs, the animatronics, the smells… etc. Not how the track is laid out.

Walt gave this man a stage to give him the honor of being the first black man to win an academy award.
Iger and his cronies will stop at nothing to erase his legacy and wipe him from history.
17 YEARS before MLK's "I Have a Dream" speech,
WALT DISNEY was the FIRST filmmaker to depict "little black children & little white children playing together" in Song of the South.
On this dark & gloomy day, The Iger Regime is pathetically trying to erase that profound legacy.

Hopefully this will be a learning lesson for Disney, but I highly doubt it.

One conveys thrill and excitement, the other is just focused on a character.

If this is new Disney, I’m out.
Absolutely nothing about this says “top tier theme park entertainment”.
Disney choosing to debut CommuniCore Hall without any theming is so strange to me. I know it’s a flex space and it will probably make sense when we see it utilized during a festival - but the debut is so odd. I’m all for keeping EPCOT weird …but eeek. (Video via

Destroying Splash Mountain was always the goal.
While true, it's important to remember this was NEVER about giving Tiana an attraction. In fact, it doesn't even matter whether Woke Mountain succeeds or self-emulates.

Echo chamber? I think you’re confused, pal.
Less than 20% of Americans are on this platform, and of that, 60% aren’t even actively engaged on it.
The anti-Splash crowd is the echo chamber you’re speaking of. Check what the majority of people think of your beloved retheme.
I think y’all will eventually realize your Twitter echo chamber is not real life and most people will see a cool Tiana log flume ride and enjoy it and not even know what song of the south or a Brer Rabbit was. Y’all fought an unheard war just to lose.

The whole point of Splash Mountain was to tell a story about how you can’t run away from your problems.
That even though there may be some bad moments, life overall is “satisfactual”.
"How Do you Do?"
-Brer Rabbit wants to find his laughing place and where he belongs while the critters welcome you to their home.
"Everybody's got a laughing place"
-Brer rabbit is searching for his laughing place and you are seeing other critters in theirs.

Not true at all.
I for one would not have cared either way if Tiana got a ride. (Not an IP I was ever interested in, but I know some people like it)
However the most vitriolic and hateful comments have come from people like Matt. Just look at some of the reply’s on my profile.
The people who say “Tiana deserves her own ride instead of just a re-theme” 100% would have been complaining if she got her own ride saying she didn’t deserve it, and some other princess did. There’s no winning with hateful people, just keep it pushing

The actual reference Avery, you know, the real life salt dome that participated in slavery.
Pretty problematic if you ask me.
Splash Mountain got the axe due to a popular myth that Song of the South featured slavery.
Somehow, Tiana's Bayou Adventure has brought Disney even closer to an ACTUAL historic slave operation.
