@@mriamo5003 Just shortening to "Hagrids Motorbike Adventure" bumps the name to a solid C tier. Although "Hagrid and the Forbidden Forest Expedition" would have alliteration and give the name the same cadence as the other Harry Potter rides. Which also aligns with the movie titles. I'm sure Universal Creative had other good options too. It just feels like 100% of the effort went into the ride and 0% into the name.
That ride was BORN for Hollywood Studios, it potentially could have become one of the big legacy rides of the park, standing to this day with maybe some new theming. I will be rocking an ETAE t shirt for my first trip in WDW in September, it’s really frustrating not being able to experience it
@claudiodigiuni2525 absolutely. They ought to bring it back as some marvel thing, since everytbing needs an ip now, but it has to be as scary as the original. So awesome
@ballerinaonamusicbox really wish it still was. They gotta figure out a way to bring it back. Keep thensamw scare level but maybe the actors on screen can be from guardians or something and balance it out with some comedy
If they cared at all about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure or if they actually knew what the story was, Tiana’s Bayou Bash was right there. But even that would’ve been too creative for them 🤪
7:53 - To defend Velocicoaster, it plays with 'Velociraptor', but it also plays with 'Velocity', which matches the vibes of the coaster given that you go from 0 to 50 mph and then 50 to 70 mph. So the name works out for it in my opinion. Also, add to the fact that you're in a velociraptor pen, there's velociraptor animatronics in the queue, and there's a velociraptor scent they developed to give you that feeling. Incredicoaster on the other hand... i dont know wtf they were doing with that...
ya to be completely honest when the velocicoaster opened i didn't know that it belonged to jurassic world (somehow lol, i don't know how i missed that) and thought it was just the play on velocity because it was super fast
I agree with the "Adventure" trend. It's getting a little tiresome. You could also include "Snow White's Scary Adventure", even though it's not called that anymore. And if you want to include the rides in Disney World, there's also "Elsa's Frozen Adventure" and "Remy's Ratatouille Adventure". They might as well put them all in ADVENTURE-Land! If I was to create a Raya and the Last Dragon ride, I would call it "Raya and Sisu's Kumandra Trek". What do you think of that name?
I gotta disagree about the IncrediCoaster: it’s congruent with the movie: Bob routinely put “incredi” in front of everything, including his IncrediCar. His fanboy Buddy wanted to be IncrediBoy, etc. As far as “coaster type”, my best guess based on my experience working at six flags: it’s less that they’re commitment phobic and it’s more about trying to mitigate the stupidity of the guests. I can totally imagine guests asking what kind of ride that coaster is, you can tell them it’s a coaster, and somehow will still get confused until they’re told it’s a coaster TYPE ride. Then they’d be “ohhhhhhhh”. I know because I had to go through this same thing with guests on a water ride who were confused it was a water ride….despite the watery name, all the signs, all the wet people passing them on the way out, all the splashes in the queue they’re standing in. IT DIDN’T CLICK UNTIL I TOLD THEM. Yea, guests are THAT DUMB. I can tell you of guests so stupid, they make those water dummies look like Rhodes scholars. What’s worse imo is going to a burger place for a burger and they weirdly keep referring to them as “sandwiches”. I think it’s called Tiana’s bayou adventure, because the name is the only place that “adventure” exists on that ride. I’ve seen the POV sneak preview, it’s boring af. BTW: I’ve been to Louisiana, there are no mountains in the bayou, no tall trees either, the bayou is basically a bowl of soup BELOW sea level (which was why Katrina was so especially devastating to them). Even Bob Iger complained that TBA is boring, that’s huge coming from him 🤭
I gotta disagree that Velocicoaster is a bad name. It’s a pun on velociraptor which works because you’re essentially only changing one syllable. Also it perfectly sums up the ride experience of a roller coaster in a raptor paddock.
The "tor" and "ter" in those words are pronounced the same every time I've heard them, though. So it is only the "rap" and "coas" that are phonetically different. I can see why you'd dislike it though
agreed, lol. i think it fits with the vibe that it is supposed to be set within the jurassic world park, and honestly i don't imagine the JW higher ups would be good at naming things, and would like something short and cool sounding (ie, the gyrosphere in the movie). also veloci, like in velocity? i do really agree with you and your points, was just expanding on them haha. though i may be biased toward velocicoaster, i absolutely LOVE that ride.
What I hate about losing Disney Fast Pass as a in-park term is that it was similar to the terminology used on Disney DVDs to skip the trailers before the main menu: Fast Play. I have such a distinct memory of a deep male voice going "These features and [da da da i forget] are enhanced with Disney's Fast Play!...[some more speech but I'd usually skip by now]" whenever I'd pop in Sleeping Beauty on DVD. Makes me sad that not only are so many companies cutting out physical media like DVDs but they have so little faith in creatives to name a property beyond what its Amazon listing would look like.
If classic Disney rides were made/named today Dumbo the Flying Elephant: I See an Elephant Fly: The Flight of Dumbo Expedition Everest: Everest: A Yeti Adventure The Haunted Mansion: Haunted Mansion: A Spooky Journey Mad Tea Party: Alice in Wonderland: Alice's Mad Tea Party Spaceship Earth: Journey Through Time in the Spaceship Earth: A Dame Judi Dench Adventure Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln: Lincoln: A Journey with Abraham Lincoln It's a Small World: The Little World: A Musical Journey Space Mountain: Space: The Thrilling Adventure Big Thunder Mountain Railroad: Big Thunder Mountain: The Thrilling Western Adventure The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh: Oh Bother: Winnie the Pooh's Journey
I wouldnt be surprised if the Mad Tea party wouldve been renamed into something stupid like "Alice in Wonderland: Mad Hatters Tea Turbulence" like just for gods sake Mad tea party works for a reason.
The reason you're getting "lazy names" is because marketing is in charge. Individual marketers can be creative and imaginative, but the industry as a whole treats consumers as needing to be told exactly how and what to think. "We" have to be told it's an adventure because otherwise we wouldn't associate the excitement of adventure if we aren't primed to think about adventure before sitting in dark rooms on a railcar. We aren't allowed to have nuance, subtly, and interpretation. It can also be compounded with decisions makers not typically being inherently creative. Making it difficult for them to understand that we the audience/consumer can have thoughts beyond being told explicitly what to think. So since they need to have the idea of adventure at the forefront, so do we. You can replace "adventure" with any other adjective, call to action, or emotional verbiage you like. Also IP enforcement (that's a big one too). It's all crafted and engineered.
The best recent name for a Disney attraction is probably Space Mountain: Earthrise. It just sounds really cool and it's kind of supposed to be a sequel.
I think that "Fantasmic" is a play on words of "Fantasia" and from "fantasma" which means ghost/phantom in Spanish. Then Fantasmic would mean "ghostly". It might reference how the villains have a big presence in the show.
The most irritating attraction name to me (that I'm shocked wasn't mentioned) is "Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT!" I mean... What the hell is that? A hyphen AND a colon? 'Guardians of the Galaxy' is already a mouthful, and 'Guardians' is sorta the only way to shorten it. Meanwhile "Tower of Terror" flows off the tongue incredibly well.
Fixing the name rides: Micky and Minnie’s Railway Rush Rise of the Resistance is fine by itself. You’re already in the Star Wars land, so people will know it’s a Star Wars ride Millennium Falcon’s Flight Snow White’s Wish Tiana’s Bayou Bash or Swamp/ Spice Mountain Inside Out: MindSpinners Ferris-wheel Frolic or Frolicking Ferris Incredibles, the Ride Velociraptor Run Hagrid’s Crash Course Spiderman: Webslingers Ariel’s Voyage
I think Runaway Railway is fine. The plot of the ride is there's a runaway train so I think the original name suits it better. Swamp Mountain sounds a little weird to me and I don't get what Spice Mountain is even supposed to be. Tiana's Bayou Bash sounds really good and I saw someone else in the comments recommend Tiana's Bayou Splash, just to keep "Splash" in the name as there is a splash at the end of the ride. I think Incredible Rollercoaster or The Incredible Rollercoaster would be a good one. It has a bit of a fun double meaning. It's a rollercoaster themed to The Incredibles, but they're also trying to tell you it's a rollercoaster that is incredible. I think putting "the ride" into the name of a ride is really lazy. I think Creature Crash Course would be a fun name for it, or maybe Magical Creature Crash Course if that's not too long. I think the name should include that part of the original title. I don't think they need Hagrid in the title. If the ride is in the Harry Potter section, people will assume it's a Harry Potter ride. I'm a little biased against colons in titles and I don't think Spider-Man: Webslingers has a good ring to it. I might go with Webslinging Spider-Man or maybe Spiderweb Slinging. Another instance where I don't think the name of the character/franchise needs to be in the title because people will know the ride is connected to that franchise. Ariel's Voyage actually sounds a little too basic to me. I think The Tale of the Little Mermaid would work since the riders are being told/experiencing the story of The Little Mermaid.
@@rainyrouge5123 Thank you for the feedback! With spice mountain, I was attempting to emphasize the spices and Ingredients that is the source of the story for the ride, alluding to the expectations of the theme for the adventure. Though I agree the mountain names are kinda lackluster as with Ariel’s voyage (being a bit too short and bland) and Spiderman: Webslingers. Maybe Spidey Slingers? I’ll admit name making is more difficult than I thought it would be
Ok so I’d like to bring up a small note, incredicoaster is an identical to what mr incredible referred to his ride as and other things incredibles used incredi- for them even syndrome, originally coining the name incredi-boy
Universal has been falling victim to this lately too... Hagrids magical creature motorbike adventure in the wizarding world of harry potter - the worst offender I was excited to see what I called the new "draculas castle" ride in epic universe, just to find out its called "Monsters unchained: a Frankenstein experiment".... wtf..... Ironically, six flags and cedar fair parks are better at naming, since they don't have to slap an IP title before every ride, and can just come up with an arbitrary cool word for each ride.
I clicked on this video expecting it to be some big channel, only to find it’s one with less than 1K subs. This is seriously so underrated, keep up the great work!! ❤
They call it incredicoaster because in incredibles 2 we see a lot of bobs gadgets being named with the incredi prefix. It’s a reference to classic comic books like Batman naming his gadgets and weapons with bat
Winnie the Pooh actually predates Disney in publication by two years. The silly ol’ bear first appeared in publication all the way back in 1928. The characters of AA Milne found a home with the Walt Disney Company when their rights were licensed for theatrical short films in 1961. The first theatrical short was released in 1966 and was followed by two more being released in 1968 and in 1974. Eventually those were all released together in one package film called The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh in 1977. So the ride at Disneyland and Walt Disney World actually gets its name from the film but the version at WDW is the last time we hear Paul Winchell voice Tigger before his passing in 2005.
What name is it supposed to have? Tiana’s water ride or smth? I need an idea for something better than what I can think of that you’d want the ride to be 💀😭
@@vulturemaxskits there aren’t any direct ties from the name “Splash Mountain” to song of the south. You could literally keep the name with the new theme. Or you could call it Tiana’s Splash Mountain.
i remember some years ago me and my older brother went to the magic kingdom during it’s later hours to ride all 3 of the mountain rides there, it’s probably the most fun i’ve ever had with him, and afterwards because we did it all in one day and it tracked on our magic band, me and him got a special mountain climber’s certificate, and now i really want to frame it
Even for people that aren't doing their research on the park before visiting, if they dropped StarWars from the name, I think it would still be pretty easy for them to figure out that Rise of the Resistance is a StarWars ride considering the fact that it's literally inside of the StarWars Land and the ride is full of StarWars characters. It's very obvious even if you don't watch the movies. And then of course, the resistance itself is from StarWars, so there's already an indicator inside of the name as to what franchise its from.
“Tiana’s Bayou Band” could have worked, since the story of the ride is supposed to be about guests helping her search for a band to perform at her restaurant. Edit: How do you not know what the ride is going to offer yet though?? Are you avoiding watching all the news that’s kicking up about the attraction?
While not a ride, how about “Black Spire Outpost” which is on the planet “Battuu” which makes up the land “Galaxy’s Edge” which most people call “Star Wars Land.”
My mom just calls Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway “Minnie Mouse Railroad” or just “Railroad” 😂 I had to keep reminding her that’s not the name of the ride last time we went to Disneyland
I’m surprised you didn’t mention Guardians Of The Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in this. It might be a little long but Cosmic Rewind is a perfect name in itself to describe the ride
Don't get mw wrong, Universal also is running into this problem as well, especially with Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure(tm), but also the Velocicoaster is an amazing name for a Velociraptor coaster. Considering Epic Universe opening early next year, it would be interesting to revisit this when it opens
I’ve been waiting for someone to address this 😆 Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run was my terrible ride naming awakening… Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is such a bad name, they gotta stop with the use of the word “adventure”
Haunted mansion holiday is a perfect name because it doesn’t entail that it’s either a Halloween or Christmas ride. The name implies that you can ride it on either holiday.
I swear Disney used AI for Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Why? Because the AI bot I use has a knowledge cutoff from 2021. It only knew that it would be getting a Princess and the Frog retheme. It didn't know the name. I asked it for some name ideas for the new ride. What was the first idea that came up? Tiana's Bayou Adventure!!! I Swear Disney used AI to name that
Well they might have also used it in the overall theme as well since I have heard it is kinda all over the place and confusing (with no villian at all)
A lot of rides have bad or mediocre names imo, but I think Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind is one the worst to me because it's such a bad ride. A bad ride just makes you think of how bad the name is more. A good ride with a bad name is just given a nick name or abbreviation by most guest.
i think you missed something for velocicoaster, i was always under the impression it was referring not only to “Velociraptor”, but also “Velocity”. And with how damn fast this ride it, the velocity element checks out
It’s weird how Disney Parks wants 5+ word attraction titles but the Disney Animation part of the company prefers one-word titles, like Tangled, Frozen, etc.
Getting rid of a mountain was not by accident. Since opening day Disney applied things like this to shops and restaurants. You have Tomorrowland Terrace and Riverbelle Terrace and you had Tahitian Terrace. Going further back you had the Egg House, the Citrus House, and the Aunt Jemima Pancake House.
I can't agree with you about the Velocicoaster and the Incredicoaster. Those are concise, snappy names. Your critique is just that they sound dumb and childish, which I mean, c'mon they're theme park rides. The names are allowed to sound sort of juvenile.

Got yourself a sub mate
You will be disspointed in Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. They did a very good-ish job on it. It’s nice but not the ride I wanted.
useless video
woah I didn’t even realize that you’re at 426 rn, I totally expected you to have at least 100k subs!
Not calling Emotional Whirlwind the "Mood Swings" was probably the biggest missed opportunity.
I mean this is just pathetic how these rides are failing
That's so much catchier than emotional *anything*!
God yeah that is a good name, were there really nobody in all of imagineering that could think that up?
Pirates of the Caribbean: a Johnny Depp Adventure
LOL
Heh
TM
Haunted Mansion: A Jack Skellington Adventure
Haunted Mansion: a Ghostly Adventure
inside out: emtional rollercoaster
was the biggest missed opportunity I've seen
Fr lol😂
The Rollercoaster of Emotions sounds better.
@@me-myself-i787I'm not trying to be the poop of the party but both names sound good
@@SlyCooper1920fr
I think Inside out: Mood swings would have been a more fitting name with how the ride spins and swings around
“Ariel’s Undersea Adventure” is equivalent to “Tiana’s Bayou Adventure” you can’t convince me otherwise
Princess Water Adventure
At least there's some alliteration in the first one.
Finding a band isn’t really an adventure, it’s a task
I still think the Inside Out ride should have been called the Mood Swings.
As a matter of fact, that’s one of the new poster taglines for Inside Out 2. I saw that poster last night at AMC.
ABSOLUTELY GENIUS
YES
That would’ve been so cute!! 😭
Brilliant! I love it! See, they should have consulted you on the name! 😊
at least they didn't name it "Splash Mountain: Under New Management!"
Splash Mountain: A New Orleans Mardi Gras Adventure
Splash mountain: now with less old timey stuff. People totally go to disneyland for the political correctness and not nostaglia, right?
I think Tiana's should have still kept Splash Mountain in the name. Like, "Splash Mountain: Tiana's Bayou" would have been an easy step up.
agreed, maybe “Splash Mountain: Tiana’s Bumpin’ Bayou” would be significantly better than the actual name
Just splash mountain would’ve still been fine because we didn’t call the previous. “Brier Rabbit: splash mountain”
Unfortunately even keeping the “Splash” would actually necessitate the water in the drop actually being turned on…🤣
The problem is that there aren't mountains in the bayou lmao
I call it "Tiana's Splash Mountain," which I feel is a good middle ground.
Can we all agree that the worst ride name of all time is Hagrids Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure?
Dang good ride though.
what would you change it to
@@mriamo5003just simply Hagrids motorbike because that’s what most annual pass holders call it here anyways lol
@@mriamo5003 Just shortening to "Hagrids Motorbike Adventure" bumps the name to a solid C tier.
Although "Hagrid and the Forbidden Forest Expedition" would have alliteration and give the name the same cadence as the other Harry Potter rides. Which also aligns with the movie titles.
I'm sure Universal Creative had other good options too. It just feels like 100% of the effort went into the ride and 0% into the name.
@@LameMoviesIncHagrids Forbidden Forrest Folleys
You can just call the ride The Forbidden Forest. No need to include the name of the character. It adds nothing.
I miss ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter. Absolutely brilliant but too scary for magic kingdom
Should have been placed in Hollywood Studios and DCA
That ride was BORN for Hollywood Studios, it potentially could have become one of the big legacy rides of the park, standing to this day with maybe some new theming. I will be rocking an ETAE t shirt for my first trip in WDW in September, it’s really frustrating not being able to experience it
@claudiodigiuni2525 absolutely. They ought to bring it back as some marvel thing, since everytbing needs an ip now, but it has to be as scary as the original. So awesome

@ballerinaonamusicbox really wish it still was. They gotta figure out a way to bring it back. Keep thensamw scare level but maybe the actors on screen can be from guardians or something and balance it out with some comedy
Disney could've kept the "Splash" in tianas and called it Tiana's Bayou Splash
How is a random person on the internet better at making names than Disney
Perfection
thats so perfect
Tiana's Bayou Journey
(they rarely use that word, so i give it a pass)
Tiana's Bayou Cruise
Tiana’s bayou boogaloo
If they cared at all about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure or if they actually knew what the story was, Tiana’s Bayou Bash was right there. But even that would’ve been too creative for them 🤪
Bayou Ball...Bayou Band.....
I was thinking they call it “Tiana’s Bayou Blast”. It’s kinda stupid tho I guess
Ha. I thought of the same thing!
@@elliottpakOr "Tiana's Bayou Splash". So we can still call it Splash. Haha
“Inside Out: Emotional Whirlwind” is the FUNNIEST attraction name I’ve heard 💀💀💀💀💀
I raise you one better;
The "Inside Out Mood Swings"
Or just Mood Swings. No need for the colon and the name of the property.
my friend and I decided to call tiana’s new ride “bayou mountain” cause we want to keep the mountain trend lol
what about frog mountain
I still call it splash mountain, it’s still the same ride just different theming
I'd like to remind you outside of Walt Disney World and Disneyland there are in fact NO mountains in the bayou. so good luck with that.
@@WalmartJedi i’d also like to remind you there are no mountains in space :)
Radiator Springs Racers is such a great name for a goated ride

Someone at Disney needs to put a ban on putting "Adventure" in ride titles. Also, maybe a ban on colons.

NAME: an Intellectual property Adventure
They take their guests for stupid, so they pick the most generic name to make clear what the ride is.
Yes, sadly this is literally how marketing operates.
Yup. Extremely corporate move. Its all about recognisability and brand value, yet they shoot themselves in the process.
They should have called emotional whirlwind “The MoodSwings” 😂😂😂😂
It’s because copyright lawyers are the ones naming the rides now.
What I hate about losing Disney Fast Pass as a in-park term is that it was similar to the terminology used on Disney DVDs to skip the trailers before the main menu: Fast Play.

Pixar Pal Around makes me think Carousel not Ferris Wheel. Mickey's Death Wheel...I mean Fun Wheel was on the nose
It should have been named Tiana's Splash Mountain. The original name is just too iconic to completely get rid of it.

Tiana's ride should've been called "Going Down the Bayou"
Honestly, I have to agree. “Spider-Man: W.E.B. Slingers” sounds a lot better :)
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is void of excitement and creativity.
The best recent name for a Disney attraction is probably Space Mountain: Earthrise. It just sounds really cool and it's kind of supposed to be a sequel.
I think that "Fantasmic" is a play on words of "Fantasia" and from "fantasma" which means ghost/phantom in Spanish. Then Fantasmic would mean "ghostly". It might reference how the villains have a big presence in the show.
Dumbo: the Pachyderm Rotation.
I was vibing, and then I realized: "Tiana's bayou band." Wow that wasn't even hard to come out with something better than it's real name😂
The fact that you called it a semicolon is painful. It's just a colon.
You forgot expedition Everest. It rolls of the tongue so well
The most irritating attraction name to me (that I'm shocked wasn't mentioned) is "Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT!"
I mean... What the hell is that? A hyphen AND a colon? 'Guardians of the Galaxy' is already a mouthful, and 'Guardians' is sorta the only way to shorten it. Meanwhile "Tower of Terror" flows off the tongue incredibly well.

It's a rollercoaster themed to The Incredibles, but they're also trying to tell you it's a rollercoaster that is incredible. I think putting "the ride" into the name of a ride is really lazy.
I think Creature Crash Course would be a fun name for it, or maybe Magical Creature Crash Course if that's not too long. I think the name should include that part of the original title. I don't think they need Hagrid in the title. If the ride is in the Harry Potter section, people will assume it's a Harry Potter ride.
I'm a little biased against colons in titles and I don't think Spider-Man: Webslingers has a good ring to it. I might go with Webslinging Spider-Man or maybe Spiderweb Slinging. Another instance where I don't think the name of the character/franchise needs to be in the title because people will know the ride is connected to that franchise.
Ariel's Voyage actually sounds a little too basic to me. I think The Tale of the Little Mermaid would work since the riders are being told/experiencing the story of The Little Mermaid.
@@rainyrouge5123 Thank you for the feedback! With spice mountain, I was attempting to emphasize the spices and Ingredients that is the source of the story for the ride, alluding to the expectations of the theme for the adventure. Though I agree the mountain names are kinda lackluster as with Ariel’s voyage (being a bit too short and bland) and Spiderman: Webslingers. Maybe Spidey Slingers? I’ll admit name making is more difficult than I thought it would be
Ok so I’d like to bring up a small note, incredicoaster is an identical to what mr incredible referred to his ride as and other things incredibles used incredi- for them even syndrome, originally coining the name incredi-boy
Universal has been falling victim to this lately too...
Hagrids magical creature motorbike adventure in the wizarding world of harry potter - the worst offender
I was excited to see what I called the new "draculas castle" ride in epic universe, just to find out its called "Monsters unchained: a Frankenstein experiment".... wtf.....
Ironically, six flags and cedar fair parks are better at naming, since they don't have to slap an IP title before every ride, and can just come up with an arbitrary cool word for each ride.
I wonder if they picked whirlwind instead of rollercoaster so they could trademark the name more easily.
and because ITS NOT A ROLLERCOASTER
Most of the Star Wars ride names are as devoid of creativity as most of Disney Star Wars in general.
I clicked on this video expecting it to be some big channel, only to find it’s one with less than 1K subs. This is seriously so underrated, keep up the great work!! ❤
They could have just used the lyrics from the song that was awesome in Tiana’s movie!
“Down the Bayou!”
They call it incredicoaster because in incredibles 2 we see a lot of bobs gadgets being named with the incredi prefix. It’s a reference to classic comic books like Batman naming his gadgets and weapons with bat
Winnie the Pooh actually predates Disney in publication by two years. The silly ol’ bear first appeared in publication all the way back in 1928.
The characters of AA Milne found a home with the Walt Disney Company when their rights were licensed for theatrical short films in 1961.
The first theatrical short was released in 1966 and was followed by two more being released in 1968 and in 1974.
Eventually those were all released together in one package film called The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh in 1977.
So the ride at Disneyland and Walt Disney World actually gets its name from the film but the version at WDW is the last time we hear Paul Winchell voice Tigger before his passing in 2005.
I just can’t get over that they picked a name for a ride with the initials TBA
"You shouldn't have to know anything about the theme park to enjoy your day" that right there is why Disney sucks nowadays
Bayou Adventure is a bad name
Bayou Adventure sucks as a whole
It’s not a bad name though
What name is it supposed to have? Tiana’s water ride or smth? I need an idea for something better than what I can think of that you’d want the ride to be 💀😭
@@vulturemaxskits Tiana's splashdown
@@vulturemaxskits there aren’t any direct ties from the name “Splash Mountain” to song of the south. You could literally keep the name with the new theme. Or you could call it Tiana’s Splash Mountain.
The name ain't just lazy, so is the ride.(TBA) oh lol just created an acronym.
Anyone else call Grizzly River Run “GRR”? Like as a sound, not as an acronym.
I’m confused how this channel only has 520 subscribers? This is a better production than most channels with millions of subscribers!
Whenever someone said Lightning Lane, I thought they were referring to the Flash Pass at Six Flags
They forgot how to do rides 💀💀💀
i remember some years ago me and my older brother went to the magic kingdom during it’s later hours to ride all 3 of the mountain rides there, it’s probably the most fun i’ve ever had with him, and afterwards because we did it all in one day and it tracked on our magic band, me and him got a special mountain climber’s certificate, and now i really want to frame it
My favorite is Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin, because it's a play on "cartoon" and "car"+"toon", it represents the ride well and it's catchy
"Broccoli Mountain"
Even for people that aren't doing their research on the park before visiting, if they dropped StarWars from the name, I think it would still be pretty easy for them to figure out that Rise of the Resistance is a StarWars ride considering the fact that it's literally inside of the StarWars Land and the ride is full of StarWars characters. It's very obvious even if you don't watch the movies. And then of course, the resistance itself is from StarWars, so there's already an indicator inside of the name as to what franchise its from.
“Tiana’s Bayou Band” could have worked, since the story of the ride is supposed to be about guests helping her search for a band to perform at her restaurant.
Edit: How do you not know what the ride is going to offer yet though?? Are you avoiding watching all the news that’s kicking up about the attraction?
While not a ride, how about “Black Spire Outpost” which is on the planet “Battuu” which makes up the land “Galaxy’s Edge” which most people call “Star Wars Land.”
Star Tours also has "The Adventures Continue" as its subtitle
My mom just calls Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway “Minnie Mouse Railroad” or just “Railroad” 😂 I had to keep reminding her that’s not the name of the ride last time we went to Disneyland
@@BlueyHeelerHere543 they got SO MANY railroad rides tho
I was shocked when I found out you didn’t have at least a thousand subs the production quality is stellar
I’m surprised you didn’t mention Guardians Of The Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in this. It might be a little long but Cosmic Rewind is a perfect name in itself to describe the ride
Don't get mw wrong, Universal also is running into this problem as well, especially with Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure(tm), but also the Velocicoaster is an amazing name for a Velociraptor coaster. Considering Epic Universe opening early next year, it would be interesting to revisit this when it opens
Web slingers shouldve been "spiderman shooters" or "spider shooters" imo
Spidey shootout?
"The Princess and the Log" was RIGHT THERE
Forgot how to name rides?
More like modern Disney forgot their brains along the way through the years since 1985... 😮
So expidotion everest is bad ride ruined by IP?
I’ve been waiting for someone to address this 😆 Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run was my terrible ride naming awakening… Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is such a bad name, they gotta stop with the use of the word “adventure”
They should have named it Tiana’s Bayou Bash.
Behold! I too can name Disney attractions better than Disney.
Frozen Ever After: A Frozen Adventure
The colons make them seem like TH-cam thumbnail video titles
Haunted mansion holiday is a perfect name because it doesn’t entail that it’s either a Halloween or Christmas ride. The name implies that you can ride it on either holiday.
I think "A bugs life" is also pretty good as it perfectly describes what you are about to experience
I swear Disney used AI for Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Why? Because the AI bot I use has a knowledge cutoff from 2021. It only knew that it would be getting a Princess and the Frog retheme. It didn't know the name. I asked it for some name ideas for the new ride. What was the first idea that came up? Tiana's Bayou Adventure!!! I Swear Disney used AI to name that
Well they might have also used it in the overall theme as well since I have heard it is kinda all over the place and confusing (with no villian at all)
They sound like ChatGPT names
A lot of rides have bad or mediocre names imo, but I think Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind is one the worst to me because it's such a bad ride. A bad ride just makes you think of how bad the name is more. A good ride with a bad name is just given a nick name or abbreviation by most guest.
i think you missed something for velocicoaster, i was always under the impression it was referring not only to “Velociraptor”, but also “Velocity”.
And with how damn fast this ride it, the velocity element checks out
It’s weird how Disney Parks wants 5+ word attraction titles but the Disney Animation part of the company prefers one-word titles, like Tangled, Frozen, etc.
Getting rid of a mountain was not by accident. Since opening day Disney applied things like this to shops and restaurants. You have Tomorrowland Terrace and Riverbelle Terrace and you had Tahitian Terrace. Going further back you had the Egg House, the Citrus House, and the Aunt Jemima Pancake House.
imma still call tianas bayou adventure splash mountain :/ I have went on that ride so many times, its so weird for it to change after so so so long
Bro didnt even acknowledge 'Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind'
Considering how many people will still flash the cameras on the ride, changing Splash Mt. to Mardi Gras Mt. would be fitting.
Mr. Toad's Wild Ride is the best ride with the best name
New Name Ideas:
Snow White’s Enchanted Adventures
Inside Out Mood Swings
Mood Swings is a peak name
I can't agree with you about the Velocicoaster and the Incredicoaster. Those are concise, snappy names. Your critique is just that they sound dumb and childish, which I mean, c'mon they're theme park rides. The names are allowed to sound sort of juvenile.
I haven’t heard the Ferris wheel referred to as anything other than Mickey’s death wheel
Lion King and Wreck-it Ralph attractions are coming soon
Very well done video, I was once going to make a video reviewing Disney ride names and this kind of reignited that interest. Thank you!
I was super confused which park has the Velocicoaster at first haha. The fact that you entioned Velocicoaster and not Hagrids Bike is crazy 😅
I knew Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway would be first, that tongue twister is rough o-O
21:42 Erm aktually, it's officially Expedition Everest: Legend of the Forbidden Mountain, thus become the longest name in any Disney theme park.
I just realized ive been calling all the rides by the wrong names.
Star Wars: The Space Tour Adventure
California Screamin is excellent because it describes that it's a roller coaster without using the word "coaster"
Haunted Mansion Holiday: A Nightmare Before Christmas Scary Adventure
