Tiana's Bayou Adventure (Now Open)

i just dont understand why they leave spots empty specially in dealing with a replacement ride, specially dealing with a replacement.
(budget)
i understand that maybe the budget for animatronics was limited, i get that, but, they couldnt put statues or anything? static little animals?

Isn't that because the ride in Disneyland is shorter and they modeled it for that ride?

Great to hear.

Why would he want to go on it 20 times.

Why would he want to go on it 20 times.

I got a better question: How was he able to go on it all of these times when the ride keeps shutting down every five minutes?

Drew has put so much time and effort into his (great!) coverage of this re-theme, it is like he now has Stockholm Syndrome about this ride.

Yeah, I gotta say, emphatically claiming the ride is running "flawlessly" when there's ample evidence it *isn't* is a weird look. You can like or even love the ride, sure, but there are plenty of clips/reports showing major show timing/animation glitches in addition to the numerous breakdowns.

Does he have a job? I feel Tiana is paying him on the side.

I think Tiana should point him out as a stalker and get the police involved.

 

[Mad Dog]

Maybe he was a Disney plant.

Considering this was a retheme with not the highest budget in the world, Disney probably didn't want to bother with doing a more bespoke version for MK that would better take advantage of the space.

Both points make way too much sense considering Disney's recent business model and MO.

Does anyone know how much the budget for the re-theming was?

Hard to see it being anything below $100M.
