At this point, people who keep saying things like Tiana's Bayou Adventure is better than Splash Mountain ever was and that time will forget Splash Mountain are simply living in denial.
In five years people will love this ride…..or so I have been told.
Splash was a better ride for sure. When it was maintained and everything was working. People forgot it really was on the level of mansion and pirates, maybe not at the end, but damn it was still fun even when it didn’t have the care that it did in the early years.
Considering how often TBA has had to be shut down, and how many people were able to ride Splash Mountain, there aren't a lot of people who have rode both versions to make a valid comparison.
They’re not delusional they’re just dishonest and will say anything and everything Disney approved to retain their media privileges cough timtracker cough
Denial unfortunately is a hell of a drug and you’re right anybody who is still propping this disaster up is definitely living in denial. They need to just get rid of the damn thing. I’m sorry I’m cursing so much this particular subject makes me angry because splash Mountain never should’ve been replaced.
As a mechanic, we have many jokes for engineers but the one i can share is “i’ve never seen a piece of paper refuse ink”
In short, it always works on paper.
In theory, it always works-- in theory.
My Mom always used to say, “Paper doesn’t complain when lies are written on it,” which isn’t quite the same thing but similar.
It works fine, with spherical cows on a frictionless surface.
The Curse of Br'er Rabbit is real folks. 😄
SheBoss Mountain will be a festering wound as long as they allow it to exist.
I'm from Southern California. I have been to Disneyland at least 60 times. I've been to Disney world a couple times in Orlando. I'm out now. I can't stand what these people have done to Walt's vision. Putrid
I agree totally! I leave in northern California and I quit Disney alittle over 2 years ago because of all the DEI changes and their disregard for Walts values. Sad because I'm an artist and Disney collector since 1985 and have some really nice collectables. I've been going to the park in Anaheim since the 60s and it breaks my heart to say goodbye to the parks and most things Disney.
I'm in the same boat. I've sworn off Disney and I'm actually angry because I feel like these people have taken something from me. I got to take my son there once before all this garbage so I have those memories. But the chance to make any new ones with him or any grandchildren in the future has been stolen by this greedy, pathetic, narrow minded, pandering, spineless leadership that is steering this company into the ground! It's so blatant that the shareholders should for gross incompetence!
i agree every single word!! When it comes about Walt Disney i just watch all classics up to early 90's all comes later is stinky boolsheet...
They really should have just released the movie for people to see and make their own judgments on. The reality is that the movie isn't at all what most people today are probably thinking and the aspect that stands out the most is arguably historically accurate. Or at least some historians have argued that the black characters were historically accurate to some degree and it seems odd that Walt would have made a movie that angered so many bigots if there weren't some significant inspiration from real life in terms of folks like Uncle Remus.
Then don’t give them another cent Genius
I would say that the problems disney is having with this ride can only be called karma!!
I thought that was their low stocks.
SheBoss Mountain is reflecting the negative vibes countless millions of people are sending its way. Expect even more shocking setbacks and problems to pop up out of nowhere. I still love Disney World and I know many great people that work there so I hope they can figure something out. What I think would totally thrill Disney fans is if they decide to do yet another overhaul to convert it back to Splash Mountain with all new updates and elements like they did to the country bear jamboree. I saw it yesterday and I think the show really was improved. I miss the fat jokes and the alcohol but they did such a good job with all of the updates it is worth the tradeoffs.
Wrath of God.
@@Xbalanque84No, the wrath of Walt!
If this was karma Disney probably wouldn’t have the only 2 billion plus dollar movies at the theatres this year. This is probably a rushed ride.
As an engineer (now retired) I can say that senior management never has the time nor money to do things the right way, but there is always time & money to fix it.
Yep, and keep in mind that this was done to appease a bunch of activists that mostly haven't even seen the movie because the movie hasn't been readily available through legal channels in quite a while.
The animatronics have electric motors and they are in a water-based ride. Not exactly rocket science to see the problem.
They get wet
This is the company that didn't test their trackless ride vehicles against the floor cleaner. Everyone is just phoning it in.
Idiocracy 2.0!
Old school engineers mananged just fine
@@joeschmoe7324 The old stuff was older than most people. Other than parts wearing out from constant wear and tear sounds like they had no curiosity on why that was. The stuff to the modern engineers most likely had a steam punk vibe to them and they deemed the old timer's engineers to be ignorant and there was nothing to be learned by them. Could be the old stuff was deemed to be overbuilt and with modern software tools, they could back off and it would hold up fine.
BRING BACK SPLASH MOUNTAIN!!!!!
They need to bring back Splash Mountain!
Yes
Bit late for that… they destroyed it.
@@CaliforniaDreamin. it would probably be less expensive to recreate Splash Mountain, than try to make Tiana's Bayou Adventure function properly.
Don't worry, Elon will fix it!
@CaliforniaDreamin. They recreated the ride twice, so making it Splash Mountain again is absolutely possible. The problem is that modern Disney would never allow it.
Tiana’s is an analogy for the whole DEI movement
No failure has brought me more joy than this. I hope it never works and it’s a bottomless money pit for Disney
I agree I completely agree and I hope that the curse or the karma whatever you wanna call it extend to the movies especially the dumpster fire that’s coming out in 2025 at this point I don’t even have to say the name because you won’t know what I’m talking about. I want Tiana‘s disaster to be snow not white disaster. I want Tiana‘s disaster to be Disney’s disaster. I want to burn.
Absolutely. The ride was made out of activism, not imagination.
In terms of "bad management", which is worse: The execution/planning/construction of this ride or The initial decision to do away with their most popular ride?? I mean, the whole motivation seems to have been that Splash Mountain was "too "rural" or "too white" for modern Di$ney...this despite the fact that it was already constructed, operational and popular. I mean, the whole project was ill-conceived, and poorly executed by underqualified (but diverse) staff.
Much as it grieves me to state*, in either case this is as clear an example of the "bad effects of DEI" as can be imagined.
*-very little, if imma be honest.
Carmen is a nasty dog
I actually hope this is sabotage by imagineers who were made to change this.
incompetence on the part of the people who replaced them is more likely.
Nobody gets fired anymore. Everyone gets a participation trophy and goes home a winner.
"You were the last winner." -George Carlin
So true. It's not about entertaining anymore... it's about the message at all costs including the loss of customers. As long as they stay on message they are untouchable. Smh
You’re looking at least a 100% overrun. Disney must have gotten their new engineers through the same recruiting firm that Boeing is using.
If it ain't broke, Don't fix it. Bring Back Splash Mountain, and put a statue outside it of James Baskett, Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox, Brer Bear and Walt Disney playing poker.
With Zippity do dah playing in the background!
I love your idea!
BBSM!
Yes bring back Splash Mountain but update it to include a life like animatronic of Uncle Remus waving goodbye as you make your final splash. Epic.
Ooh, I quite like that idea, actually.
@@guidedmeditation2396
Respect the Remus.
You don't respect the Remus.
I still think it's Walt's ghost causing problems.
There is never enough time or money to do it right the first time, but there is always time and money to do it twice. (My working life)
Only twice.....lucky sob.
I seriously had a gut feeling way back when they destroyed Spladh Mountain that this ride was not going to go well. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that they killed Splash! Tiana should have just had her own ride. It's a travesty!
Think about it. Splash Mountain was the most magic best ride in the entire world and they get rid ot it! It's mind-blowing!!!!
Totally agree! The social justice warriors ruin almost everything they touch.
I can assure you she would have never received a ride. Look at how little the ride has to do with the film mostly because Disney banned the voodoo elements. This was all about activism and using the only black princess they have, nothing else.
@SirBuzz you are right about that. Princess and the frog was a box office flop because Disney didn't market the movie right. Also it was a 2d theatrical film. They were focusing on tangled
Agree Tiana should have had its own ride. But I disagree that it was the best. It's funny that some 70 years later, after blacks protested how they were being portrayed in that movie during its premiere, Disney decided to do something. When most people today don't even know or care about the controversy that surrounded that movie.
@@HoleintheBucket totally agree with you!
Good job, Disney. Hiring using DEI versus skilled personnel to implement a "new" ride to an existing ride (Splash Mountain) that worked just fine.
New dog whistle. I hear people say this stuff all the freaking time as if people have ever only been hired because of skill. Nonsense, I work in corporate America, it is mostly who you know, or if you fit in with the group. I've seen this time and time again.
They need to rerelease song of the south. Put all the controversy up front. Then referb back to splash
Do you know the controversy about this movie? Most people I talk to about this either don't know or don't care.
@@HoleintheBucket it started by the NAACP trying to take control of the movie and Walt wouldn’t let them. After that is we’re the samer campaign started
@@Jafar-dr6to Didn't think you knew. Ignorance is not bliss.
@@HoleintheBucket here’s a question have you seen the movie in its entirety. Last time it was released was the 80’s
@Jafar-dr6to Yes. I own a copy. I watched about a year ago. I love the movie.
Hurricane Bob is tearing it all down.
Remember when disney ripped out an homage to the first African American academy award winner then replaced it with this
Not to mention the first African American to star in a major motion picture.
On top of the fact that Splash Mountain is based around ACTUAL African stories and not a European fairytale like Princess and the Frog. This is the lunacy DEIsney has become.
The fact he was proud the movie existed.
It was easy for folks to make the demand because hardly anybody has actually seen the movie in decades. It is somewhat controversial as to how accurate the black characters are to individuals of the period, but it's not like nobody was saying that they were and I personally give Walt the benefit of the doubt here because making the movie when he did with those characters probably did piss off a lot of bigots.
I wish people would remember that historical context is important, you can't always make the thing you would be able to make in a few decades time when pushing the envelop.
Umm... huh? I looked it up and that was Hattie McDaniel for "Gone With The Wind", not anyone in "Song of the South". Am I missing something? If so, please let me know.
I'm guessing the issue is that they got some new (probably dei) engineers who wanted to do everything different than the previous engineers and they abandoned all the existing Disney animatronic knowledge. This happens in many companies when management trades experienced engineers for lower paid inexperienced ones.
Agreed! These failures are what happen when the new engineers ignore why animatronics in a high humidity environment were pneumatic and stainless steel instead of vulnerable to moisture electrical components and common steel mechanics. Totally demonstrates lack of real world experience.
@@tonyf454 The old stuff was older than most people have been alive and it held up. Most likely CAD/CAM was used with software structural analysis to cut out a lot of things that would supposedly have been overbuilt. They should have taken something currently in service and cloned the surface structures that everyone sees. Then should have had a contest to see how it held up. 2 exactly the same devices to the eye but completely different under the skin.
It’s more than likely that the higher ups are forcing them to use the new electric animatronics. I am a former CM from the creative costuming department. Whenever there was a new show we tried to reuse as much of old show stock as possible. But it often felt like the higher ups were forcing the designers to make different versions to stop us from reusing a lot of stuff. I can’t tell us how many times we had to went through different fabrics before we actually used what everyone in the department was saying we should have been using in the first place.
They want new, but when we needed money to get more costumes for an existing show it was like pulling teeth. There are costumes that we told them we needed to stress test because we had never don’t something like that, the ravens in the festival of fantasy parade. We were only happy about the Maleficent float burning because it gave us time to test new designs because those wings were so fragile and heavy, and constantly coming back for repairs.
when Iger is removed the first thing they should do is restore Splash Mountain
glad to see that the mountain is still getting revenge
Why design a ride influenced by a movie almost no one remembers or cares about?
It's replacing a ride that hardly anybody has legally seen. The whole movie is far more complicated than a lot of the people talking about realize, and you do have to remember that it was made in the '40s and was kind of cringey because of that.
@@SmallSpoonBrigadeSplash mountain is iconic. This is like tearing down a historic monument… this isn’t 70 years ago anymore the ride became its own thing and rose above the BS in fact brining people together eventually.
Bro are you talking about Princess and the Frog? I remember that shit.
When I hear about problems on this level, it reminds me of that company that built the tourist sub where they decided to use 'new' engineers for DEI reasons as well as wanting what they said was thinking outside the box. They ignored the old hands who had been building submarines for years due to the hubris of company management with the result an implosion and loss of life. There is a reason the older engineers should be listened to due to having seen many of the possible failures in the past and well as knowing what methods lead to successful project completion. Again we appear to have an issue with either Disney hiring of unqualified people to fill check boxes instead of merit or management overruling their engineers to meet time constraints or similar corporate priorities. Also we can't forget that Disney took out MASSIVE loans for decades to come during Covid which have not been paid back yet but we never seem to hear about now in addition to the Hulu and other maintenance and operational costs as low level personnel reductions only help for so long to offset those costs and results in needed repairs and services being dropped which will further impact customer satisfaction.
I was told that Fortnite showcasing D23 will save it 🤣🤣🤣
Are they showing the whole thing on there? I thought it was just Fortnite announcements. They are also giving away a free backpack in game for watching the show for 10 minutes 😂
@@ryandoles425 No it’s only the panel on the Epic Games investment and it’s at like 9:30 Central on August 10th
This is an exciting time to be a Disney fan apparently.
Wolverine and Deadpool are going to do the Fortnite dances as a way to stall the event
@@gizmonovack I’m gonna join it for 10 minutes while I get my kid ready for bed just so I can get the back bling for my Rogue skin
The only memory i have of my grandpa before he died was going on splash mountain with him. Now that memory is gone forever. Thanks disney 😢
It’s honestly sad. Disney knows how unhappy customers are with the retheme.
They could shut it down in the winter and add and fix the track
@@CrazyManhog Or, they could shut it down and just put it back the way it was with repaired animatronics. They could then spend some time to design a proper ride for Tiana in the expansion that they're going to need to compete with Universal. Somehow they wound up with a result that's even more offensive than the allegedly offensive ride that they had previously.
Disneyland was built in one year. What is really wrong here? And corporate should never ever ever have caved to woke in the summer of 2020.
The problem is corporate IS woke. Disney is completely infested with these people!
In all fairness, The original Disneyland rides weren't as complicated as a lot of the more recent ones and they weren't needing to work around park guests.
@@SmallSpoonBrigadeIn all fairness, Disneyland rides were that complex in perspective to the tech of that time.
I don't care how low Disney's stock drops. Don't take any of that as the sign that you should be putting your savings into buying Disney stocks. Not with the parks going like this.
Regarding Lorena's comment about engineers being overruled... Engineers were overruled, and the ride sucks. Engineers at Boeing were overruled and we got the "MAX" issues. Engineers at NASA were overruled and the Challenger exploded. Society as a whole needs to learn that engineers know what they're talking about.
I’ve ridden splash multiple times and I’ve never had to evacuate or down time! Crazy
Me to!
I’ve ridden Splash at least 100 times and never had to evac either. A few times i’ve been stopped for a few minutes(either for ride load delays or people climbing out of boats)but never evaced in 30 years of riding this ride.
Same
I personally think they've sabotaged this ride, because they got so much flack over taking down Splash Mountain for this overgrown ChiaPet. This ride is not about the story "Princess and the Frog" it's an extension of the story that completely loses the fairy tale feeling of Disney. And while the ride was met with tremendous complaints, far before it was finished, Disney was too far along and had too much money in it to turn around at that point and ditch it. So now, it's having all these issues, when Splash Mountain had all those animatronics and had no problems. That ride was always working. I believe Disney is behind these "problems" with it, so Disney can save face. They will have to scrap the ride because it's just not working and they can't get it working right, and then all of a sudden, another ride will go up in it's place. This will allow Disney to put up something like a "Little Mermaid" flume (which would make more sense anyway, since it's a water ride), and make everyone happy. Anyway you look at it, it's an expensive mistake, we'll all pay for in the long run, with even higher ticket prices, parking, food, etc. JMO
Has anybody been fired?
In a meritocracy, that might actually happen, but not sure Disney subscribes to such a paradigm.
I think the person responsible for this atrocity will be promoted...
Yes! Kathleen Kennedy has been fired about 54 times now!
I want Bob Iger, Josh D'Amaro, Carmen Smith, Charita Carter, and all woke DEI employees at Disney fired! 😡
Replace the Imagineers with D-E-I-gineers and this is what you get. They've turned Disney World into a combination of Port-Au Prince, Haiti and Gary, Indiana.
Stop it! This is so dumb, no offense.
This problem goes far beyond Tiana's. For years Bob Iger has had no faith in the parks. Even as far back as 2017 they were seen as unsustainable. Say what you will about Chapek, never once did Bob Iger say "spare no expense" and Chapek tell him "No." What we are seeing now is the result of half a decade plus of doing the bare minimum to keep the parks running so that profits could be siphoned to more "profitable" ventures like Disney Plus. (Which as a reminder in something like 12B+ in the hole. It had a *single* profitable quarter, but is years in debt. You could build HK Disneyland 2 times over with that.)
Disney parks are circling the drain right now. Prices have to increase to offset lower attendance. Lower attendance is caused by the borderline trickle of new things to do, cost and declining quality. New experiences cost money which has to come from park revenues. (They certainly aren't making big dollars at the box office.) Revenue is reduced by maintenance costs (much of which they are cutting corners on) and employee wages (which they are trying so hard to keep low that quality employees become scarce) both contributing to lower quality. Return to step one, increase in prices. Without something to break the cycle somewhere Disney will only continue to decline.
I'm sure the pixie dusters will try to refute this. And you know what? I am happy for them. Anyone well enough off to be able to spend money so freely is very lucky. Unfortunately, the number of people who can do that is decreasing each time the prices go up. Further, given the current state of the parks, constant closures, literally falling apart lights and fixtures, increases in fights among guests and cast members. You would need a very heavy dose of Pixie Dust to try and argue Disney is better now than 10 years ago. In which case Disney has two options, back up to where they were or further down...
Edit for grammar.
Always been curious how some people are able to get into the mind and heart of other people and know their thoughts and motivations.
And what about Eisner?
@@JonathanDingelback And don't forget about Walt Disney, he started this mess.
@@JonathanDingelback Eisner was okay till he succumbed to parinora that was nonexistent at the time that DreamWorks was a threat to Disney in that era. I mean it is NOW but at the time he was obsessed over a ghost of things to come.
Epic is coming. Disney is going
Br'er Rabbit is laughing his butt off to the chaos he ensued on that ride.
I love this channel, but Pro, you need to stop stepping on your panel guests when they're talking. It would be nice to hear them finish their comments or explanations without being cut off constantly...
Agree
Yes!!! This!!!! I unsubscribed because of it and rarely listen anymore
D'Amaro really has a smug self satisfied face stoked by his incompetence. And those few new animatronic aren't that great. They are too rubbery in their movements. All the others are the old-fashioned store Christmas window displays kind anyway.
That will buff right out.
...what time is this programme on?
Is it ten o'clock?
Just play the music outside the Tiana ride and call it a day. 🎶
I saw the renderings of the Mary Poppins ride. They improved the park by not building it.
Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay it’s time for the bayou to go away
Weatherman Bob strike again 🤣😂😅
Fire Iger and make him pay for all his failures
If MK capacity is a concern, they should have just made a new ride, that way you could have both Splash AND a new PatF ride running instead of replacing one with the other adding zero net capacity.
Wouldn’t surprise me if the Thunder refurb they planned to do is delayed because of the issues TBA is having.
Splash Mountain at Magic Kingdom is the GOAT in my opinion.
They can't build a moving puppet that works. They had them in 60s and 70s. Probably even in the 1950s. Lame
When they decided to update it they should have thought about fixing all of the Splash Mountain issues at the same time instead of what appears to be just putting lipstick on a pig. This company is getting ridiculous. I am thisclose to canceling my trip in February It's bad enough they ruined my favorite park, EPCOT, but geez how can they be so incompetent?
All that Disney had to do was wait a few months until the knee-neck cancelation tour ended and the manufactured outrage about Splash would have vanished.
@@SirBuzz true, but Splash did need some repairs, which it appears Disney ignored, or thought they could go cheap on the repairs.
@@SirBuzz What? What's "knee-neck cancelation tour"? The outrage wasn't manufactured.
How can they be so incompetent? They're trying very hard. They are giving it their best shot.
@gregr3720 The knee-neck cancelation tour was when St. Floyd died, and narcissistic opportunists seized the opportunity to get popular American IPs canceled via bIm extortion. If you think the outrage bandwagon wasn't anything but amanufactured , then show me examples of purple-haired land whales crying about Splash Mountain prior to St. Floyd's summer of love.
When will you guys talk about the disaster that Disney’s new private island is!
It's cursed .😂bring back splash mountain
How's that "necessary downgrade" treating you, Disney?
How long do you think it will take for Disney to restore Splash Mountain
They still haven't restored the People Mover at Disneyland and that went away in 1998.
How do you take something that worked, and break it?
Disney only cares about D/E/I anymore.
You “reimagine” it.
Why do I find pleasure in seeing all of this fail? 10 years ago this place was one of my favorites on earth. Now I won’t even let my kids go there or watch anything they put out. I should be wishing they would improve, but I genuinely think I will not see it in my lifetime.
😊unfortunately I agree with you. As an artist and Disney collector I feel like this isn't Walts Disney anymore. I started going in the 60s as a little boy and now I can't find it in my heart ♥ to go to the park anymore or by newer merchandise. The only connection I'll have will be pass Disney before all the woke chunk started.
remove Tiana and put back what people loved
Rode it today. 40 minute wait, line out the door. We get off the ride without issue and the ride is down, queue is empty. We had zero issues, but they shut it down cold in the time it took to ride.
Same exact ride as before. Same exact boats, and the boats do NOT look to be part of the refurbishment. We saw one boat has to be manually unlocked for a ride to exit, via a large T pipe tool.
I think (my opinion) it was lazy reface. In some places the 'moss' is just green spray paint over the old clay finish. Minimal animitronics and one of the Tianas was just broken (zero movement).
It is a very poor job. Nothing like you would expect Disney of old. They assume they can just ride their name forever, and that time has now passed.
This was opening day of the Halloween Party, and it was dead for a marquee event.
DEI construction company?🤔
Didn't Earn It and Destroy Enterprises Internally. 😃👌
Agree
The lotto machine is broken.
Is it just me or does it seem that Universal has the A-team that Disney used to have and they are creating with vengeance?
In a high-tech and/or mission critical automation application, a facility with all this automation (i.e. the ride) would be endurance tested for at least 2 years before it is deployed to production (i.e. opened to the public). This means the ride and all the doodads would be built in a separate location and be tested and tested and tested and thoroughly debugged. Then, even after all that testing and it is delivered to the park, you will still have issues come up, but it will be much less severe and not impact production. Disney has no engineering talent, or the input of sane engineers were completely ignored. This would never see the light of day in Tokyo Disneyland.
Disney World is living on its past. Universal is investing in its future!
I WISH Disney was living on its past. At least that implies they still honor it even if it is in an Adeptus Mechanicus way. The BioLeninists and Spiteful Mutants in charge of Disney HATE everything that's from before they took charge.
Brer Rabbit will not go quietly into the night 😂
The Splash Mountain spirits are haunting this ride lol!
Why does any engineering project fail? Could be incompetent engineers, so the team could have too many DEI hires that were not up to snuff. Could be insufficient time for design and/or testing, so Disney may have gone lowest bid or rushed the project to save money. Either way, if you hire qualified engineers, tell them exactly what you need, and give them the time and resources to do it, and you will not get a failure like this.
Hold onto your wallets. Here come more huge price hikes
Disney World had bigger priorities to focus on instead of destroying Splash Mountain and re-theming it. Now it’s become such a challenge to run that they still can’t focus on other priorities. (Like adding capacity/ attractions to DHS and DAK. Fixing dead space like Animation Courtyard and Chester and Hester’s Dino-Rama.)
NEVER should’ve replaced Splash Mountain.
Ride wasn’t working on my visit -early June 2024. Fate
Another Mickey Mouse Operation going right down the sewer. Absolutely stunning and unbelievable. 😁😂🤪🤣😃🤷♂️🤦♂️👌
These are the same ones, Disney DEI hires, who were pushing Tokyo Disney to change their Splash to TBA. Thankfully they rejected the idea and completely ignored them. Glad someone still loves Walt's Disneyland!
Japan loves rabbits foxes and bears
I sadly rode Tiana’s boring adventure twice and I sung the splash mountain music out loud the second time
Tiana's should have just been a restaurant and nothing more then that...as that was the WHOLE POINT of the movie...she wanted her own restaurant and got it at the end.
I’ve seen a video of the parade that Universal has done and wow that is cool. Disney is just scrambling to keep the stuff open and to hide the fact that the new ride really isn’t as popular as the ride it was before. Plus with it constantly going down, animatronics not working, and nobody in the parks singing um what’s that song that is used as the party song but sounds like it’s about to open something. Scuttle Butt? Nope, special spice. I think Disney will have to bring back Zipadeedodah for people to stay in the parks. Not because it’s from Song of the South but because most of the people recognize that song as a celebration because of Splash Mountain.
The entire debacle is poetry. Pure poetry. GOOD-FAST-CHEAP Pick any TWO!! Good job, Disney. Hiring using DEI versus skilled personnel to implement a "new" ride to an existing ride (Splash Mountain) that worked just fine. So, they decided to fix what wasn't broken and in the process, they broke it... It will cost a season of The Acolyte to fix it. They should have learned from the previous engineers and used simple electronics that are solid-state and robust. Jonas, Rocket Rods was terrible, you didn’t miss anything. Brer Rabbit will not go quietly into the night Well, @RobertIger is really securing his legacy! Looser, wouldn't it be cheaper to just hire a bunch of actors to play Tiana and the new characters on the ride? Seems to me that would be better received too. I still think it's Walt's ghost causing problems. Is it just me or does it seem that Universal has the A-team that Disney used to have and they are creating with vengeance? they can convert the employee parking structure for guests....and bus in the employees. It can happen. Yet the engineer? Disneyland really does need that eastern gateway. That should be the first thing they announce for the DLR. 2nd should be the new Tomorrowland and the third will be the Avengers e-ticket. I'm not sure what the deal with Avatar Land is if that goes in Hollywood Pictures backlot plot or in the downtown Disney parking lot. I did enjoy Pandora at Animal Kingdom but is this something we really need here?? Elon Musk needs to take over Disney. If you don't take the time to do it right, you'll find the time to do it twice. I am glad that I got to ride it in previews on a good day. I still hope they reskin a Louis in fur and stick it in Everest, he should work better there. #AbonibleLouis
KARMA IS BRER RABBIT I love this channel, but Pro, you need to stop stepping on your panel guests when they're talking. It would be nice to hear them finish their comments or explanations without being cut off constantly... I'm sorry, can Boob Iger do anything right????? It's breaking alongside the false narrative it was built to sustain. Does anyone have a link to the Splash Mountain shirt issue they were talking about??
Does K. Kennedy get residuals for Jurassic World next movie is the Flash next to Belly Flop Mountain.
You can't have a parking garage without one. Fire Can YOU Guess The Movie From The Soundtrack?! #2
Disney is a dead-poop. They're trying to fix the ride with their feelings it ok tho Elon Musk said hold my Zima bout to fix this bullshit at Disney Can Iger and Disney sell Fox back soon already!? Everyone is waiting and it ruined the studio. I don't care what Disney says. Disgusting. Dude, you have GOT to stop interrupting people while they're talking. You are so bad at that. Who is the audience for this channel? Watching a bunch of grown adults hyper-fixated on criticizing everything Disney does is definitely something. I’m starting to think Universal is behind this channel with all the praise they give it. you replace a great ride with a thrash ride bought at a discount store way to go Disney keeps your quality up as usual in anything you make or create. engineer creates, technicians make it work but inhouse company testing should be done not skipped from experience it always pays, in the end, John Mayer Pitched Andy Cohen a Tonight Show Comedy Bit (Extended) | The Tonight Show The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon 19:38 Now playing Top 10 Disney Fails, Ride Breakdowns & Malfunctions Pt 12 - Walt Disney World & Disneyland TPMvids Disney World Has Gotten Too Expensive Bright Sun Travels Astronauts stuck in space: Do they have enough food and water?

I can't believe people are STILL defending this ride. Like please, just take the L.
It’s not the boats, it’s the show control system!
They need to literally piece by piece but splash mountain back together, publicly apologize, and fire the executives responsible as well as their DEI team. Then maybe their curse will be lifted and people will trust them again
The great old splash mountain all the animatronics ran nonstop with no timing sensors so each time you went you may see or hear something different and that’s a plus. The new adventure times it so you see the same exact ride show every time a it doesn’t work that way with bad sensors and bad animatronic breakdown.
I’ve seen a video of the parade that Universal has done and wow that is cool. While Disney is just scrambling to keep the stuff open and to hide the fact that the new ride really isn’t that popular as the ride it was before. Plus with it constantly going down, animatronics not working, and nobody in the parks singing um what’s that song that is used as the party song but sounds like it’s about to open something. Scuttle Butt? Nope, special spice. I think Disney will have to bring back zipadeedodah in order for people to stay in the parks. Not because it’s from song of the south but because most of the people recognize that song as a celebration because of Splash Mountain.
According to an animtronics engineer I heard address this, his opinion is that the mechanical dynamics of these machines can't work as installed in that environment. It's not a chance of catastrophic failure, its a certainty.
Still can't believe whats happening to Walts company and his legacy. Had to say goodbye to Disney a few years ago because of all their political views and just ruining the parks to be politically correct. Also i rode Rocket ride when it opened. It was a real disappointment, start fast then slow down from beginning to the end of the ride. Glad i many chances to ride the people mover because i started going to the park the year after people mover opened. Also all the other rides that are now gone that we wish we had back. I'll have to be satisfied with all the great memories from my past visits which are many. Sad 😔
This is the Disneyland Rocket Rods / People Mover situation all over again. Cheap misguided overlay, ruins classic attraction, then becomes prohibitively expensive to repair.
What about Superstar Limo?
@@kylekeller3398 well Superstar Limo's ride system is still intact and in-use (Monsters Inc). People Mover track is just sitting there decaying in plain sight.
@@DreamPantomime But Superstar Limo was short-lived.
I just got back from disney world a day ago....quick recap... yes this ride sucks...the animatronic from Navi river journey is gone...Kyle Ren in rose of the resistance doesn't work... hes just standing behind the fall piece of debris...they changed the ending to a screen of kylo in his tie fighter....probe Droid at the beginning doesn't move its just static... yet the animatronics on its a small world are still going strong....
Being in the field of engineering, anyone else ever heard this line? "We NEVER have time to do it right, but we always have time to do it over!"
This is what happens when all the old white guys that did all the animatronics and invented all the rides are now at Universal for your Dei hires ! Another magnificent job at Dei Disney !
If someone chews me out for something I’m wearing that isn’t promoting hate crimes etc…someone & their employer will be sued for denying my right to freedom of expression. Will NOT tolerate it.
Tiana will devour all the profit from Deadpool and Wolverine... and still break down.
Dude, you have GOT to stop interrupting people while they're talking. You are so bad at that.
Old imagineers: "You need to use hydraulics..." Mgmt: You're fired. DEI hire imagineers: "We will use the latest electronics and control boards to provide a seamless expansive customer experience." Days into launch... Mgmt: "What is going on???" DEI imagineers: "Hmm...apparently state of the art electronics do not function well or last long in a high heat and humidity environment resembling a wet sauna. We will need to replace everything with, um, hydraulics!"
The curse of the Briar Patch.
Br'er Rabbit is laughing his butt off to the things he did to the ride.
Universal is going to eat Disney's lunch! I cannot wait!
The Epic preview was packed the other night. People were so excited and buying up a ton of merchandise. We all can't wait. Meanwhile, at the old park in Disney I was yelled at to move my car from an empty parking lot while waiting to pick up my children. The vibes are very, very different.
Rocket Rods. I had the pleasure of riding it once. It was pretty fun, in concept, but their inept engineering decisions killed it. If they had reinforced the supports and banked the turns, it would have been really cool. That, the Yeti, and the slew of recent epic fails have tarnished the once quality name of Disney. Sad.
Maybe it’s sabotage, maybe they rushed things or maybe it’s a ploy Disney is playing out, because of the backlash they got for changing the ride. In the end they’ll put some things back the way they were (Splash Mountain), with the cover the malfunctions are more expensive to fix.
It's like miss LaReina said, really. Had worked in the ship engineering department for a few years and I have seen this actions been taken even there as well, customizations in engines prior to testing conditions, all just after the owners heard "we can save money with this" without thinking the issues they may follow after. Unfortunately we live into a world were the people that lead it, hear and see everything first with the dollar signs without realizing the aftermath may be costing them way more money they could wish for.
This would be a great redo option to just close it and adjust not only the animatronics but the storyline as well.
Leaving Magic Kingdom now. It’s the first night of Mickey’s Not So Scary and we weren’t able to ride Tiana’s because it was down:(
You can’t fix something that was never broken
