A month-or-so ago one of the dates we expected news on passed and I wasn't at my computer so I decided to check Twitter and see if there was anything on the project. Really put things on this board into context. Makes everyone feel much more reasonable and open-minded. But I wouldn't suggest anyone ever stick their head in that den of scum and villainy.

Facilier didn’t have to be tied to the Frog storyline to have a presence in TBA. He or his shadow and friends could have come back for any reason. Revenge sounds about right. They could have used story beats from PATF and re-introduce Facilier however they want. Think Finding Nemo. Probably a good template for what TBA should/ could have been (story wise) in how it’s essentially most of the story beats from the movie but not a book report. It didn’t have to be the exact same story. For example in TBA they are using most of the original songs for a completely different story. I didn’t list all the reasons why Mermaid fails. Mermaid does feel cheap because of bad execution. Ursula’s lair is probably the only scene that feels right. I fully agree on all of this. To be honest, Frozen's story doesn't lend itself super-well to a "book report" dark ride. Same goes for Monsters Inc. - the story's a bit too complicated, which is why I think Tokyo's going for a ride set after the movie was a wise move. Regarding the Facilier thing, they could easily just go "To heck with continuity" a la Remy's Ratatouille Adventure and have him just be in the ride with no explanation.

Does anybody think I’m lovely?

Can people please stop complaining about other people's opinions? It seems very unnecessary.

I was stating my own opinion on the matter. Now you may not with agree with me and that’s fine but my comment was based on my own observations. Now tell me how did I “mischaracterize” that poster’s complaint?

Way to mischaracterize that poster's completely legitimate (and overly-earned) complaint.

Very random but there’s two circular designs embedded in the sidewalks at two spots in the queue - under the railroad and in front of the Main Entrance. They are ALWAYS covered with plywood in pictures. It’s probably so minor but I’m dying to know what it looks like

Why do some people on here feel the need to pretend that they don’t criticize incomplete projects?

Mickey/Minnie projected on wall when balloon prop is broken during Carnival scene. Mickey/Minnie projected on wall during underwater scene when green bush that covers them is broken. In factory scene, the lanterns remain in down position when they are broken, so they don't "pump" up and down before Mickey pulls the switch. Also the carousel remains closed up so that too is projected when the prop is broke.

Different fence, and yeah that definitely isn't getting removed unfortunately. As soon as they scribbled produce on it, it was clear that was what they were going with. Looks awful too. Looked bad on Splash, looks even more awful with the scribbles. I was referring to the ugly green metal railing directly in front of the drop.

I mean, the fence I have an issue with is still untouched and looking like painted ingredients are the final adjustment to it. If they fix it, I will happily state that my grumbling was unjustified.

It's the only scene where you feel like you're "in" the story... perhaps with the exception of the initial descent with the bubbles, cool air, and ceiling screen, but the static "characters" tacked around kills that right quick.

Interesting. Thanks!

Alternate screen version of the flying balloon Mickey and Minnie in the carnival scene is one I can think of.
