In today's video I make my way to Disney's Magic Kingdom with Adri to finally ride Tiana's Bayou Adventure! I share my honest review about the attraction and I talk about what is really happening behind the scenes that Disney doesn’t want you to know. Adri also shares her quick review with you as well. After that we spend the rest of the day enjoying the park with riding some of our favorite attractions without using genie plus (I time the stand by queues). Next, we have dinner at the Plaza restaurant which was absolutely delicious. I also discuss the recent breaking news coming from Disney regarding the big update to Genie plus and lighting lane coming on July 24th. Finally, we end our fun day with creating some popcorn from the Main Street Confectionery. Thank you so much for watching, if you enjoyed this video please give it a big thumbs up!

@jasonbullard2159 3 месяца назад

Absolutely spot on with your review imo. I love the fact that kids from different ethnic backgrounds have a new Princess to look up to which is exactly why so many including myself wanted an entire new ride just for Tiana. I agree the ride is cute but it looks like a new paint job on a 1975 car and you are never going to get away from the Splash comparisons. Tiana deserves the kind of new ride technology and 4K like everything Universal is building. I can’t be the only one who sees this! Like you said Disney is so afraid of offending people that it’s now a race to the bottom of making no one happy instead of racing to the top in quality, storytelling, animatronics, and everything that has made Disney fans out of so many of us. SMH Disney takes away Splash, makes 80% of people mad, gives Tiana a ride that maybe 20% actually love when they could have kept Splash and given Tiana the amazing ride she deserves and made everyone happy! Idk maybe I’m the crazy one…

@DrewHall-un8sn 3 месяца назад

jasonbullard2159, absolutely agree. Disney should have had her own ride and her own restaurant. Magic Kingdom could have increased capacity and gained a much needed eatery. I can't believe it took this long to retheme a ride. I think it only took a year and a day to build Disneyland.

This ride NEEDS Dr. Facilier. I’ll never understand Disney’s logic: they didn’t want to showcase the voodoo element, yet here’s Mama Odie using “magic” to shrink us and make us big again. Oh, and her snake is also featured, and his name is Juju. 😂😂😂 Either way, I’m a big PATF fan, so I’m sure I’ll enjoy it for what it is.

@christinad2611 3 месяца назад

As always Dev, you are spot on with the review of Tiana's ride. The story is lost and it could've been a lot better. For a movie with such a powerful message, this ride's story falls short. It's also sad that Disney couldn't make a functioning ride. I wish they would've given Tiana her own ride instead of rebranding Splash Mountain. She definitely didn't get the respect she deserved.

@Daveandjeannerose 3 месяца назад

Hello Dev. Your honesty about the ride is refreshing! So much nowadays is to just sugarcoat the truth and that’s not at all what we want to hear. So watching you and listening to your own thoughts is definitely why we watch your channel. We are looking forward to the ride opening here in Anaheim Disneyland. Hopefully it will have a better result and not keep breaking down. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Have a great rest of the week!

@flormonet 3 месяца назад

Great video! I am disappointed that Disney didn’t give us a REAL brand new ride. It seems lazy and Disney already took forever to give us Black and AAPI princesses (since Mulan). The ride continuing to have problems appalling. What Disney should’ve done is re-fresh Splash Mountain and erase the problematic parts and then give us a functioning, creative, Tiana ride. It’s just a lazy “fix” and I’m not happy with it, the same way that Disney has non-AAPI women play Moana in the parades 🤦🏽‍♀️ Bonus: Big Thunder brought the rain 🤯 So glad Adri could be a part of this and I really respect how she isn’t filmed. The pay phones were exciting! Epic Universe here I come 😂

Wow! This is the first real honest review I’ve heard. I have not seen or rode this attraction in person and it will probably be another year before I am able to. So I can only give my opinion based on Live Streamers and Vloggers POV… so with that all said… I agree 100%, Disney has to STOP being afraid of offending people. They are worried about such a small percentage of people, and by doing so they are giving themselves such a bad name. Disney is literally destroying themselves and for what? for who? It makes no sense. I honestly thought that the attraction was going to be Princess and the Frog, what a beautiful story that would have been. A story of both Tiana and Prince Naveen and Ray and Evangeline and the adventure they all were in… and No Dr. Facilier!! again because Disney didn’t want to offend such a small group. Dr Facilier was good enough for the movie so why not the attraction… As you said, they should have Updated Splash Mountain and created a brand new Tiana (Princess and the Frog) attraction.. now with all that said, it is a very cute ride, I love the animals they are adorable (but they could have been added to The Princess and The Frog themed attraction too.) the music was good… but it isn’t Splash Mountain…

Kinda disappointed unfortunately. I wish they would've just built a whole new ride instead of gutting a ride that so many iconic imagineers put their heart and soul into. Good video as always dev!

@timchurch9069 3 месяца назад

Agree with you end comments 100%. Tiana deserved who own ride. That movie had a fantastic villian, but Disney was afraid to offend someone. I think animatronics with electric servos and sensors, in a wet environment, are gonna constantly fail. Why didn’t Disney think of this? For me, the biggest issue is the Story makes little sense, and too much empty space. And of course, they killed a ride I loved to build it. Disney, for a “woke” company, better wake up. Universal is providing family entertainment. Disney is too busy trying to preach a confused message at us. I dont think the small crowds are because of the heat. Its always been hot in June.

@anw7147 3 месяца назад

Spot on with your assessment about Disney worrying so much about offending 2% of people. I was always such a HUGE Disney fan growing up and into my adult years but recent years I’ve lost interest in the stuff their studio has been pumping out. So far as “redoing” Splash Mountain because it offended some people, I’m sorry but Tiana deserved her own new, innovative attraction using the latest technology! It just feels like a lazy afterthought, kill two birds with one stone, kind of deal. It’s a shame and I won’t say that I’ll never return to Disney but for now my family is happy to spend our time and money at Universal.

Almost every single person I know has cancelled their season pass but has still kept their universal one. That says a lot. I’m still a huge Disney fan but Disney has chased a short term market which is starting to bite them in the ass.

These franchises have fans already built in. When you change all that you leave a bad taste and the changes stick out and distract from the original story.

@hometronicsflllc3952 3 месяца назад

You’re absolutely correct, if Disney just went back to what worked for decades, they would be doing great. It just breaks my heart and I’m sure Walt is not very happy. They also have to stop making stupid mistakes like the Moana walk through, I’m sorry but that should have been opened at animal kingdom not Epcot. It just doesn’t fit in there. They really need to clean house and focus on the heart of Disney again.

I agree, I’m on the west coast so I’m at Disneyland. I revisited for the first time since Covid happened and had a great time for the 3 days I went. We never waited an hour for a ride except for rise of the resistance on our first visit, on the other ones it wasn’t even over 40 minutes. We were able to do every ride in both parks in one day. Ontop of that I feel like I like the new rides just as much as the old ones, runaway railway is one of my new favorites. I can speak for the west coast when I say our Disneyland park here is elite.

@BrerOswald 3 месяца назад

Great review! If they had built a indoor New Orleans Style Area on the other side of the Rivers of America, with a Tiana boat ride and a restaurant (kinda like Mexico in Epcot), this would’ve been a great addition! Sadly, that wasn’t what we got. I’ve probably been more critical about this retheme than anyone else. Obviously because I have a lot of love for the original attraction. I think it could’ve had some “plussing” similar to the updates Pirates and Mansion got, but it was as close to perfect as a Disney ride could get. It’s hard to take an attraction designed to fit a particular story and environment and change it to something that is completely different. You can definitely see that in how they struggled with the story and some of the physical scenes in Bayou Adventure. Hopefully they’ve learned their lesson for future attractions. Only time will tell.

@kimmypuppetco 3 месяца назад

This review is everything! I completely agree Disney is afraid of offending people as well as using conflict in their storytelling. This ride definitely needs conflict because it was originally designed for the demographic of teens/adults. However, the plot of the ride is equivalent to Small World, with a more intense ride track. Some kids like Adri are so brave and can ride that ride but I know when I was a kid I was petrified of big drops (and still have a hard time with it). If the storytelling was stronger and had an antagonist such as Dr. Facilier (or even a new villain), the ride would be more thrilling. That way all ages can be engaged and not feel like they're being talked down to with a "watered down" plot with budget cuts. Tiana deserves better imo so I hope Disney will find it in them to change it in the near future if they can find financial footing.

It could have been so well done and have so much fun with the drop and Dr. Facillia is such a good villain but again that don’t want to offend anyone! They need to listen to their customers more. I hate they keep missing bar over and over again. Look how well people are loving Tokyo because it’s true to the movies and that’s what people want. I also HATE the way Tiana looks in the ride. I keep thinking it’s her mother and not her with her safari outfit that doesn’t make any sense. Ugh, come on Disney 😫

Agreed. It's almost like they don't want to recognize her as a princess. The ride seems thrown together like they really didn't care.

Summer is so great to know your kiddos!

It has ALWAYS been hot during Florida’s summers. People are still coming to Florida. It’s just that more of them are just choosing a different place than Disney to spend their summer vacation.

I absolutely agree That a Dr Faclier sceene with the song are you ready would have been awesome before that drop. Just that change would add so much.

Space mountain is one of my favorites when my aunt took me when i was little i had to sit in front of her and it was my first roller coaster. I lived it so much

So good to hear your views on this.The drop at the end is the big event in the ride, a DR. Facilier section would have gone a long way to make sense of why you're dropping.And I also thought that it was too much Princess and where is the "Frog"!!Very good take. Thank you.

Louis the alligator is the real star of this attraction. Think about it. He's the one finding the other band members and pointing them out to Tiana. This story setting reduces Tiana story to a minor character instead of being the main focus.

Cancel culture wants to come in and call everything racist. Cancel culture wants to come in and call everybody who likes and misses splash Mountain a racist. When they do that Disney has to listen for some reason. Fantastic review by the way. I appreciate your candor .

Chocolate sitting out on Tiana’s table in New Orleans is kinda funny.

Thanks for the tour of Taina's. I agree with you 100%. A cute ride but of course more could have been done. I knew sooner or later Disney would have to replace Genie Plus. It was a horrible idea from the beginning. From the short review you gave it looks like maybe a little improvement? I was so wishing they would do Express Pass like the one Universal uses. Looks like Disney's new Lighting Lane you are still on a schedule and tied to your phone all day :(

I feel they could have used props in the lift hill to emphasize you're growing back to normal size, example being Mama Odie's hanging bottles gradually changing size as we go up, from abnormally large to the average size bottles surrounding her before the drop. Also, yes to your question regarding the queue ambiance on Space Mountain. Top fave along with the Pirates queue music.

Definitely huge nostalgia when passing through the queue at Space Mountain 🥲

@RyanNodal305 3 месяца назад

I share that same sentiment I wish there was more of a dramatic buildup to the drop. I mean they definitely could’ve added Dr Facilier to the current storyline. He could’ve come back as an evil spirit from the dead. I’m looking forward to riding the ride one day.

Disney built their empire on their storytelling skills. There was a time when no other company could hold a candle to them when it came to bringing fairytales alive. Now, they are remaking movies with more parts, just redoing stuff. They should have left Splash Mountain and made the necessary upgrades, and then given Tiana a brand new ride built from the ground up.

I feel about the same way. I expected it to be more like the movie so that was very disappointing. Too much of the voodoo lady! I miss splash mountain! I’ve seen this ride through 3 people view. I’m not a fan of it I’d give it a 6! It was great to see you out enjoying it with her! Sweet! ❤

@prym1camo845 3 месяца назад

I agree with you 100% on the getting back to great story telling. Disney has lost their way for sure.

I haven’t been on the ride yet and it may be a while before I get to experience it. I live in Florida and my husband and I go to Orlando quite a bit but Disney these days is a hard sell for us. I love Disney and growing up, my friends and I went often. We either had tickets through school organizations or we pooled our money and bought tickets. As an adult I still love going to Disney BUT now, I have internal struggles over giving Disney my time and money. I agree with your assessment that Disney is doing too much. I too wish they would go back to focusing on storytelling and the magic of Disney. They’ve abandoned everything Walt Disney stood for and now they are in the political game. And this is why they have to placate to everyone. This is also why the cost of going to Disney has skyrocketed. They’ve lost the families that would save all year and fly cross country to bring their family on an amazing Disney vacation. People have stop coming because, dare I say it, Disney has gone woke. So in turn, Disney has now decided to pander to the rich because it is definitely a luxury. As someone who grew up at Disney World, and loves seeing kids experience Disney World for the first time, it breaks my heart that so many kids won’t have that experience because of the decisions Disney has made. I still look back fondly on my memories of Disney growing up but this new Disney is a hard pill to swallow. I wish they would go back to the values and purpose they had before. That was the magic of Disney!
