6 minutes of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure malfunctions (WDW)

TBA may be lacking everything that Splash had (like a great story, impressive animatronics throughout, great music, actual tension, and soul), but one thing they both have in common is their silly malfunctions.
The ride isn’t open for regular guests yet (it opens on the 28th), and it’s only been open for around 10 days for previews, but there were enough different malfunctions for me to make a 6 minute video of them (not including most of the evacuations and closures that TBA has had since previews begun). That’s how you know this ride is good.
Credit to everyone who I used footage from to make this video.

The old ones would have to be rebuilt completely without the infrastructure to rebuild that older technology at that scale. The animatronics were nearly 50 years old. They could fix one or two but not a whole cast. (Also there's a million virtual complexities that have to be worked out over a long time with these new figures before they're 10x more reliable than an audio figure.

When the old Disney (the Classic masters of the craft, who are gone, now), did a Rehab, they did exactly that..and then some. They upgraded and replaced everything that need to be replaced. So most of it, over time, was becoming state of the art. I still prefer Audio-Animatronics, over most of the new robotic junk. My friend, a master Imagineer, was able to program these figures more realistically than I have ever seen, including these A1000's- which are hightly overrated! They appear to be flailing around, for a number of reasons, including lack of knowledge of acting and human movements of the programmer, , and the technology itself, etc. Splash Mountain was my friends Masterpiece, and Tianas is a piece of junk in comparison.

BUT the og film looked good, they had really pretty, amazing scenes in that movie in the Bayou. The movie made the Bayou look magical and a little scary. I don't know how possible it would've been to make any ride based on the movie, simply because they were literally frogs the entire time lol But the fact that this ride currently looks this terrible (conceptually and literally), it feels like no one was thinking about the actual film or how to make a good ride. And I don't even think it's a cash grab at this point because idk who is excited to ride it, it's just being stupid with money. I bet fans of the movie would've come up with much better locations and concepts than this, ones that look good and have that magic to them.

Thanks for waiting 3 hours so I don't have to. Luckily I live in Japan and we don't have to deal with this for yet.

Tiana's T Pose Adventure

[@marihoverson]

It’s so sad the downgrade Disney made with this after millions of dollars. Splash Mountain felt like the critters lived there, we came into their world. It’s so awkward seeing the next animatronic silently waiting up ahead for you to pass their sensor. Put them on a loop like how it was before, so it puts some actual life into them. We didn’t spend money to watch screens either, but to be immersed into an imaginary world. The place feels like they scraped the bare minimum of the barrel just to try to entertain us. A few critters scattered throughout the bayou feels like they are coming out just for us, then to get back into the dark void. Just stick to doing rides based on the movies like the classic Fantasyland dark rides, add Facilier, “Are you ready” for the drop, and put Tiana in her gown at the finale with a familiar song on the recycled riverboat scene…would have been amazing! I’ve seen so many comments of African Americans saying they didn’t care about the Song of the South drama, because the ride didn’t convey that at all and was an enjoyable experience for decades! Poor Tony Baxter and what they’ve done to his masterpiece, and the millions who will grow up never knowing the classic of a ride Splash was.

4:24 lol again 🤣

[@ultimatedisneycruiselinefa5112]

Tiana was good 7/10, but Splash was SOLID 10/10!

[@kylekeller3398]

I agree!

[@stephenn77]

This reminds me of the Chuck E Cheese animatronics that would always break down! 😂

[@madden8021]

We can understand as to why Chuck E Cheese is replacing their Animatronics with a dance floor

[@Thatfoxatthebowlinglane]

Must be a sign from god telling Disney to bring back splash asap

[@MKLettis]

When you hear that they're putting actual animatronics in the ride: 😊 When you realize that this is in Disney World and they're awful when it comes to performing maintenance on their rides: 🙁

[@nucleuscyborg5036]

I don’t know whether to give a thumbs up on this video because this channel has shown the truth about what Disney has done to the beloved splash mountain, or to give it a thumbs down because this video shows Tiana’s bum hole in such a negative light. Either case I subscribed to this channel thanks to the WDW pro channel.

[@CrispyAdamz]

This ride is creepy af

[@DavidBehlman]

The music is mid as well.

Back in the day I was "close" friends with Brer Bear. We spent a lot of time together at this mountain and I have to say there is truly a curse of Splash Mountain. Splash broke down time to time, but nothing like this and I believe Splash is letting everyone know WDI killed it was before its time. I do understand thing need to be update, unfortunately the mark was missed on so many levels.

[@thatvamp]

The animatronics are just as broken as the McDonald's ice cream machine.

[@RayBcv1030]

As much as i dont like this ride. I dont want to harass any of the creative team behind this. Im sure they did as good of a jov as they couldve with the $2 corporate gave them to make this. And ngl. I do think this is salvagable. With a few tweeks. This COLULD be an amazing ride.

[@N1c5]

Do know what Disney should do? Combine both splash mountain and Tiana’s bayou adventure together

[@scorchedevil9669]

like the lorax the animals of splash mountain headed south

[@sugaisswag5790]

Hahahaaa😂

[@celestiadrools9551]

I was headcaning that, too 😅

[@Mr.Feather130]

The whole ride feels like a disappointing insult to the princess and the frog

[@BinhLe-mj1hk]

Look even an idiot like me knew this was gonna happen. Can't believe they didn't even think of B-mode or a B story line if these animatronics broke down

[@WTFJOYA]

Rode it yesterday and in spite of hearing about constant breakdowns all day everything shown here worked surprisingly well when my group was called. Overall it was a nice ride, but boring in comparison to the theming and atmosphere of SM.

[@BarbandLynnTodd]

And they want Japan to get rid of Splash Mountain after seeing what they have done. Another Disney flop

[@SirBuzz]

And just think, DEI$ney spent over $100 million to erase Splash Mountain and create this travesty.

[@bcb_2024]

2:25 took me a hot minute to realize what I was looking at

[@Josie656]

Kinda wish they moved her own ride into California adventure:(

[@HarnessTheStorm]

Why the hell would they do this to the best ride in Disneyland? These new animatronics creep me out.

[@elite-ns4we]

Thanks for bringing awareness of how awful this ride is… not just with the malfunctions.
