Splash Mountain: Princess and the Frog Edition

- Saw people saying that Splash Mountain should be reskinned to a Princess and the Frog theme. I thought about the idea and the music from the film and felt it may actually work fairly well. So here you have it, Splash Mountain with music from Princess and the Frog.
I just hope they dont use screens.
@Zoe Loschin yeah I might think of some screen parts of the ride but I hope they didn’t too otherwise it’ll end up like some Universal Studio rides (I think in my opinion)
@2freeIvX but those are all mostly screens. It would be better to have classic animatronics. it would be a shame if they were all screens :(
Zoe Loschin yeah I agree I really want to see a big animatronic of Louis
@@passthebutter6037 or maybe a Tiana animatronic kind of like the belle one from Tokyo
Zoe Loschin I don’t think they are having screens I think they are gonna have attractions
Is no one going to talk about how perfect the “are you ready” part was? If they do that, it would be SO climactic! The timing for it was perfect too!
And the "yessss"
Yep! I got chills! lol it’s meant to be there
I loved being nervous before the drop on splash and hope they keep the same energy
@@jimjohnson1515 They aren't it's just going to happen during another positive moment in the plot, the drop will have no context
What do you mean "is no one going to talk about" that's literally all people talk about when it comes to this refurb...
Also I must add that they confirmed that the ride is a new story that takes place after the movie and that the song wont be playing for that part.
If you look at this guy’s plans, he has all kinds of creative ideas, from stopping at Mama Odie‘s, to misty bayous filled with fireflies, to a creepy friends on the other side segment. It could really work.
I know, but I’ve always wanted to ride splash mountain and now I’ll never be able to.
A Slater As of this morning, it’s OFFICIAL. It’s happening!
@KTMD the ride would be kind of boring if they didnt include voodoo or the main villan. In order for this ride to work it needs to have an intresting story not just oh the main chacters are getting ready for Mardi gras.
I think it will be great especially with all the new technology and ways of making the dark ride parts better, just look at na’vi river journey!! It sounds like a really fun theme and I’ve never been to the american parks but i’ve heard that it is quite close to new orleans square so they might make a new bayou part of that area including the ride! I’m only a bit upset because I might never get to ride the original.. but there are plenty of ride throughs on youtube and hear me out, I think this princess and the frog ride is going to be like guardians of the galaxy mission breakout: everyone hates the idea at first because it was such a beloved attraction but when it opened everyone was shocked and ended up loving it! Obviously many will miss the original but I think Tiana deserves an attraction all to herself, especially as the music and the film was amazing!!! I can just imagine how good its going to be, they can make misty bayous with amazing music ughhh i can’t wait!!
lauraknots, yeah, this sums up my feelings perfectly. What I’m worried about is that they’re probably going to close down critter country, and I’m worried about the Winnie the Pooh ride. They better move it to fantasy land or something, or I’m going to pop!
THE FRIENDS ON THE OTHER SIDE PART FITS SO PERFECTLY OH MY GOD
Speaking of that part mind mashing that with nemos intation I feel like that would fit too well would someone do that please it would be perfect if someone could do that make it the whole sence though
Is it true that it's gonna take place after the events of the princess of the frog movie?
YESSSS I love "Friends On The Other Side"!! It'll totally 100% fit the drop
yesss Ikr!! also omg I watch ur vids and im subbed to u! haha!
So does the end I think, just imagine everyone on the boat singing
Please please please, have it end at Tiana's Place and have the restaurant serve Beignets 🤤
yesssssss
Ikr
Yaaaassss!!!!!!
Yes
And when you leave the ride there is a beignets cart 😋
I love how u added “Are you ready?” Right when you start going up the hill
@@timothythesparklymango5807 omg that's PERFECTT
TimothyTheSparklyMango REALLY OMGGG YESSS
I'll be jammin' to that when the drop hits
It's perfect! Even though I've been on the ride a billion times, that song would still make me so excited for the drop
"ARE YOU READY?!"
"NO! I'M NOT READY AT ALL!"
This should be an attraction all to itself leading to Tiana's Restaurant.
swarlock omg i love this
I love princess and the frog and all, but I really love splash mountain too.
Tiana's Place could replace Peco's Bill Cafe and become a sit down at Disney World
Would be great if it was part of the ride like blue bayou in pirates
Tamsie Lamoreaux omg yes that would be everything
Not only does "Friends on the Other Side" fit the leadup to the big drop very well music wise, but the current Splash Mountain already makes use of a shadow effect with Brer Fox during that part! Could very easily have Facilier's shadow there, among other voodoo visual effects.
Y’all forget Almost There which will for sure be in this ride
omg u love that so ggg
oh yeah!!!
I think that will be playing while you wait for the ride so that way there can be like a ton of references to her dream.
Angie_luvs Marvel well that would be a good idea but the ride is going to be AFTER the movie if that makes sense. The ride is going to be based about her getting ready for Mardi Gra
100th like 😂🙂
genuinely never realized how long this ride really is
IKR lol
Taylor McLeod Igh where do you want me to bite 🙂
Taylor McLeod “erase history” lmao it’s a disney ride.
Evelynn Frawley They didn’t have to change anything. Not a single black person or BLM representative was asking for disney world to change the ride.
@@taylormcleod499 I was thinking the same thing. But then I thought some ore. The entire ride was a marketing ploy that blew up in Disney's favor. It was never meant to be something nostalgic or big, it was just there to attract teens and promote the new movie "splash", with tom hanks. It has no big correlation to Song of the South, and view that as you may, it means that it also has no historic ties. However, the ride breaks down constantly, almost everyday. Just yesterday, a boat sank. Also, the animatronics and just the ride in general is outdated. Riding through the lense of nostalgia isn't the same as riding through the lense of a newcomer. There always has to be something fresh and invigorating to attract new guests. Rides will come and go, but memories stay forever.
5:26 That would be great build up if they did Friends on the Other Side like that.
"Are you ready?"
Me: No. I'm not ready at all!
that is so cool !!
Yes!
Also this part of the video literally fits perfectly. If Disney doesn’t do this imma be mad 😂
That would be ready!
Are you Ready!!!! *drops in fear*
the dr. facilier part gave me goosebumps omg it’s gonna look so FREAKING GOOD
If the scene after the drop isint her restaurant then I’m SUING 😤
They should tear down (edit: or re-theme) the Hungry Bear Restaurant and turn it into Tiana’s Place restaurant
Lol
kirbyisbby @disney!!!! Lol this is frfr such a. Great idea!! They better do it😂🖤 my dreams would be complete.
kirbyisbby Me too
V. Michelle ok here me out tianas palace but with some food from the cafe / diner she worked at
Feels like 2010 all over again hearing this music, since that's when the Princess and the Frog movie was brand new and could easily have gotten a TV series.
As a kid after seeing the movie I was just stalking Disney online to seeing when the sequel would come out, it’s been 10 years and Tangled got a series and a sequel as to when they got married what did Tiana get? Just some pets for the whisker haven show and an appearance on Sofia the First and 3 minutes in Ralph Breaks the Internet. I thought the movie was a bombshell I didn’t actually know it was the worst sold Disney princess movie ever... like her and Merida need some more credit it ain’t their faults they both came out at the worst time!
Oh and forgot the video games... oh good old video games... wait OMG TIANA GOT MORE STUFF THAN MERIDA BUT BRAVE MADE MORE THEN HER MOVIE?!?! OH THIS IS HYSTERICAL!
i was born in 2010 rlly so im 9 and the movie
Ikr or 2009
@@edwardo6834 WHAT DID U SAY TO ME
Curious to see how closely this soundtrack will match up to what they actually end up doing.
With the story, in the ride, taking place after the story in the movie, perhaps they'll get an original song.
They're missing some music from the movie.
Dan Neitzel they changed it so she’s not a frog the entire ride
Shaggy Rogers bit it would be cool if they were frogs and then after the drop you see Tiana and Navin kiss like in the movie were they turn into humans
I think that they are going to have songs from the soundtrack on the ride
As long as they don't spam it with screens and have amazing animatronics and music, I'll be totally fine with it~
wait what ride did they spam screens with ?
Jeremy Mittwer Well, there are a lot of recent Universal rides that have screens as the only experience. Of course there are the theater-type rides like Minons and Jimmy Fallon that is, but there is also the Fast and Furious ride, which is literally mobbed with screens. The actual ride takes, like, 5 minutes of you in a bus with you mostly staring at screens with very few times the bus actually moves, not to mention the acting on the screens are very cheesy, horrible, and rushed. The Kong ride is also very screen-spammed too, though that one is better. It'd be my absolute worst nightmare if the upcoming TPAF ride was filled with screens just like Fast and Furious, as it is not only one of my favorite Disney movies but also Splash Mountain is a very classic ride that made a few songs very popular, so they better make it worthwhile for me. I'd love for them to use creative special effects, and beautiful animated animatronics, like the ones from the Belle ride in Tokyo! Tho I am convinced they will use screens at least for a few backgrounds like on the Frozen ride over at Epcot.
Jacob Curiel no they wont omfg
Jacob Curiel Can you give me proof please? Don't be so over confident of it...
@@jeremymittwer6028 The new spiderman ride at DCA is spammed with screens.
During the drop they should add dr facilier’s shadow friends on the sides and them Laughing at you and him saying “are you ready?” Right before the drop and ofc his laugh at the drop and replace the fox with his shadow ofc and then replace the bunny with Tiana and Prince Naveen
They are theming the ride to tianas first mardi gras so we will actually get to see human tianas
Yee but prob Nadeen and Lawrence
I thought the exact same thing!!!
YES OMG EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING
AHH thats perfect
This aged well :)
Wdym?
Anonymous splash mountain is getting re-themed into princess and the frog
Aged well in the past month, you mean?
Matsuda You Idiot Productions yes indeed
Bailey33Girl ya but this was made after the idea was out
Whoa, the music lined up so perfectly from when he says "yes" and you start up the hill, to when the drop happens!! it's fate!!
IKR it’s too perfect
hell no
i absolutely ADORE this movie. i really hope they don’t make the ride with screens instead of animatronics. and there BETTER BE beignets and tianas restaurant. that will really complete the experience. i’m so so excited.
no it will suck
My heart jumped at “Are you ready” like I was actually on the ride
I hope this soundtrack gets in the ride when it’s re-themed.
Why wouldn't it?
They confirmed the music will be in it, yes.
no i hope it won't
@@katiepointer stop being a bitter betty 💀💀
@@katiepointer oh
on the way up the hill, imagine the part with brer rabbits shadow it’s switched with naveen as a human but his shadow behind him is his silhouette as a frog
@@RyanM95 wut
Clarissa Michelsen That is genius!
It’ll probrably be the voodoo guy and all the shadows
That would be good but I also have an idea where Facilier and the shadows are singing "Are you ready" while the shadows are following you up the hill. At the end near the drop they would sing "I hope you got what you wanted, but you lost what you had!" while Facilier would be laughing while you rode down the hill. This is just my idea lol.
@@totallynotmicah8995 i like that too!
They better make the Dr Facilier part EXTREMELY scary, I love scary things
Bratten Hugo almost everything at Disney is for kids so that’s unlikely
@@legallyfinn3816 then again, snow whites scary adventures exist so ye
Sanchezzyy 55 but that wasn’t MEANT to be scary
@@legallyfinn3816 but it’s literally in its name. Snow whites scary adventures lol
Sanchezzyy 55 but it wasn’t SUPER scary, it was just that one part with the witch turning
If Disney doesn’t have the drop be when the shadow man dies it’s a big missed opportunity. Like imagine, going up the hill having “are you ready?” Playing, the masks glowing, then you go through the mouth of the mask thay he died in and down the hill :0
Disney: WRITE THAT DOWN, WRITE THAT DOWN!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSS
Yes that would be epic!
At least it's not being turned into a Princess Meet and Greet.
Cap'n Bubbles I’m still pissed off that they removed Snow White’s Scary Adventures
Bratten Hugo Same... That ride was so well done....
Yessss
Bratten Hugo Whoah, when did they do that?! 0.o
Snoe Leppard May 31st 2012
It’s going to be sad losing Splash Mountain; it’s a childhood favorite of mine. But! I’m extremely excited to have a ride based on a movie that celebrates women and African American culture! This is a really great opportunity to make a ride even better and look forward to the future!
Right I think the princess and the frog ride has so much potential to be really cool
I feel the same way. I’m definitely gonna miss listening to Zip iddy do dah at the end of the ride. But I can’t wait to ride this new version! I’m really glad that when I have kids someday, that they will grow up with princess and the frog as a ride. Something that they will hopefully look up to. I’ve always hoped for a princess and the frog ride. I live on the east coast so I primarily go to WDW and I don’t know if there is a princess and the frog ride anywhere else. But that was something that I always thought that Disney world missed out on. So I’m glad that it’s finally coming to WDW. But I’m gonna miss splash mountain. Although I am a little curious as to what they are going to be naming the new (kind of) attraction. Will it stay splash mountain? Or will it be renamed to something else? Something that has to do with Princess Tiana?
omg i wish there was more people with the same outlook as you, like everyone's sad to see splash mountain go but how could you not be excited for a new ride
Splash celebrates African American folk lore.
Cec mass and princess tiana would be even better at that
The riverboat could be Louis “playin’ with the big boys!!”
I feel like the riverboat will be the restaurant.
Happy Disney is actually going with “The Princess and The Frog,” theme for Splash Mountain. About time Disney has an Attraction that celebrates African Americans in a positive light.
Finally someone who doesn’t defend Song of the South. Thank you so much for being positive about this change. 🙌
Same
I’m not mad about the change, it’s just that it’s gonna be kinda hard seeing a whole new thing that’s different from what I’ve seen and remembered for a while.
@@n.cookie1 Same. I'm also gonna miss Zip-a-dee-doo-da
Matt From Wii Sports and missing things that are nostalgic is not bad, it’s just when people care more about nostalgia than progress that thing become bad
I hope they add a Easter egg with a hidden Brer Rabbit and other hidden old props, like what they did at Disneyland’s Winnie the Pooh Ride in Critter Country with the deer and boar heads
They probably would not because they want to forget the past.
Sean Keyblade Master They’ve has references to past rides in almost every single ride that replaced it- Ex: The Great Movie Ride- A poster saying the great moving ride in Mickey and Minnie. I’m sure they will cause this is a fan favorite
@@disneydude404 but do you think Disney if so gonna fuck with black people rn but I do think Disney might keep the bottom because when princess Tiana got married they did go on a stream boat like three one they already had
maybe they will keep the frogs hidden somewhere
This actually made me genuinely excited, I was bummed about Splash Mountain (mostly because of nostalgia) but seeing this makes me hopeful!!! I love princess and the frog and having it get a ride is exciting!!!!!
Maybe they will have a nod to the original
i’m honestly very excited! i also can’t wait to see little kids going on the princess themed ride and ending up going down the big drop 🥳😂
Ahahaha
*GETS GUN* *DEMON VOICE* dont u dare say that to a nine year old little girl ever EVER agin
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
the little kids will hate it just like rocket rods but they will like splash mountain
me too
People are tripping if they think that one petition caused Disney to change this ride, and that another one to keep it will work. Trust me, they probably were thinking of changing this for at least two reasons. It can be based off of a movie that more will recognize and enjoy being on a ride about. And now that this cultural awakening has occurred, it just gave them the green light to go through with it and announce it probably before they were even wanting to. Also, I don’t know why people would be offended other than being sad because it was their favorite. There is no reason to defend Song of the South as the people mad about the change weren’t even alive when it came out, and most have not even seen it. Disney has been trying to erase that movie from its history because they were not proud of it; this ride was the last reminiscence of it.
Yeah, this was probably already on the drawing board and the internal discussions were around how much of a priority it was since they were already spending a lot of money on new Avengers Campus and Runaway Railway, not to mention all the attractions at WDW. The cultural awakening probably put everyone on the same page and it got priority and funding.
It was planned for years, they just announced it WAY quicker than they should have. I’m VERY CONCERNED princess and the frog will not get a good quality ride because they’ll rush this
They just announced they were gonna do it :(
Yeah it makes sense they were already thinking of it. I mean it’s an obvious ride to re theme to this film. All the animatronics just need to be re skinned and a few added tbf
exactly, disney has confirmed that they’ve had this plan for about a year now.
i kinda wish it wasn’t based on after Facilier died because then they could play “are you ready?” before the drop
Thought this looked off, but then I’ll remember that the set will be changed and everything, so it’ll make sense later on when everybody sees it lol
And instead of the ship with all the animals it'll be Tiana's Place!
Watching this makes me wanna cry, I miss Disneyland so much.
I rmr seeing this years ago & being so excited hoping they would do something like this with the music for the new ride & now I'm so disappointed after seeing it
My heart was pounding during the Friends on the Other Side section! Amazing what such perfect timing can do.
4:12 on the new ride could totally pretend that facilifer came back from the dead to ruin mardi gras and still play friends on the other side
Very nice, I’m super pumped. Just give me a spooky and trippy Dr. Facilier section before the big drop and I’m happy.
the voodoo scene better be before the drop
They should turn the country bear restuarant into Tiana's Place since splash mountain isn't really gonna be about nature or the land of the South anymore, it'll be like a sit down restaurant sorta fancy but not as fancy as Blue Bayou, and easy to access. It'll serve the same things but adding more creole dishes. I'd kill to have some of her signature dishes that you wouldn't wouldn't be able to find anywhere else in the park. Just an idea!
I think that would be too big of a refurbishment. They would have to completely demolish Hungry Bear since it looks nothing like Tiana’s Place. But I do agree that Tiana’s Place needs to be a thing!
I thought the same thing! I’d love a casual Cajun or creole restaurant and they could have a jazz band playing inside like in the movie
Ralph Brennan's ( JAZZ kitchen) and the Royal Street Veranda have been there for years! They serve gumbo and beignets, etc. Why on earth would they need four places serving the same food? That would be the epitome of overkill. It amuses me how many people seem to think that this movie invented beignets (and gumbo) when Café du Monde has been serving them since 1862! I am from Louisiana.
Tess d'Urberville 100% agree.
For the beginning, I bet they’ll use instrumental versions of those songs.
I forgot how good the music from this movie was
hiimawesome6 ikr this is the best Disney music 🎶😆
I'm quite happy with this retheme for Splash Mountain. The Princess and the Frog definitely does deserve a bigger spotlight in Disney parks. Plus, drawing more attention to Princess and the Frog could encourage the Disney company to finally make more traditional 2D hand-drawn animated films.
The segment when you're going up the lifthill before the big drop was perfect
I love Splash Mountain and was obsessed with Brer Rabbit and Song of the South growing up. I was too young to understand the complexity of the issue with the film. The idea of giving a CLASSIC ride like this a complete makeover to me is blasphemous. HOWEVER, I can TOTALLY get behind this concept! The music and theme works perfectly. I think Princess and the Frog is the only movie that could replace this ride and be even better than the original.
I just like that they brought Tony Baxter in to redo it. I think it'd be heresy without his input.
YES I TOTALLY AGREE splash mountain is definitely a classic but come on princess and the frog deserves this ride sm it will be sad to see splash mountain gone but they are changing it to something that can totally be better
Song of the south was racist. Splash mountain wasn’t. I’m going to miss singing zip it e do dah
Splash Mountain was not at all racist because there weren’t any people in the ride at all in the first place. I hope they keep the rides name similar or throw in a secret B’rer Rabbit in the ride.
It’s more the fact that it was tied into sots but imo this is a better theme don’t @ me
S A M E
The story told on splash mountain is an allegory for why blacks should've stayed on their plantations after they were freed.
Well uhm.... Disney doesnt care:) they've decided. Plus they wouldnt have removed it if it doesnt offend anyone. So there you have it, its changing get over it. They dont care who doesnt like the idea. Plus, better music.... Dont @ me.... 😬
Literally got chills up my spine when “friends on the other side” was used for that part. Especially the “are you ready?”
They really need to add this on the ride!
THEY'RE DOING IT! THEY'RE DOING IT! Just announced today - Splash Mountain, both in WDW and DIsneyLand - will be rethemed for Princess and the Frog!!! Really hoping they're aware of this video because this is a PERFECT way to do it. Though apparently the ride might be a whole new "adventure" for Tiana and friends. At any rate - YAY!
IT WILL BE TERRIBLE IDIOT
agreed!! i just hope that they somehow incorporate “Almost There” since it’s such a great song
BartTheGamer Plays smh you havent even rode it yet
06-02-2022 -
Disney has CONFIRMED that the Princess and the Frog ride will be open by 2024!
Honestly I hate when Disney redoes classic rides...but this concept is amazing. The visuals + the music right when you take the plunge works so well
This isn’t a “classic” though....the ride is from the 90s
Brett Abaurrea whatever man
@@BrettAbaurrea actually it opened in 89. And it is a classic. Do some research.
Taylor Johnson they have no choice with the killing of floyed people started a petition to redo the ride we’ll keep the ride but cut all mentions of song of the south
@@danielsworldofcraftinterna837 they have no choice? I'll bet you money they dont change the ride. Wow someone started a petition. The ride itself isnt racist. The reason the movie was banned is Uncle Remus. Hes not anywhere in the ride. This ride, the rabbit, the bear, the fox. This is a staple of my childhood. I'd actually be offended if they changed it.
I think Princess and the Frog desevres its own ride. I don't think plastering it on a classic ride as Splash Mountain is a good idea imo.
Thank you. I know it’s based on a racist movie but the ride isn’t racist and is very enjoyable
@@howtolife6783 Not only that but, the ride really isn’t even based off the movie. It’s based off a completely different story that just happened to be shown in the movie. People are totally over reacting and not even doing research!

@@xniaxm2967 Not that people who promote cancel culture are any less guilty of making excuses.
This video did a better job with placement of music than the actual pov of Tiana's bayou. My daughter has been watching this version for a while now and I have a feeling she's going to be disappointed
ITS ACTUALLY HAPPENIN
anddddd it’s actually happening now! disneyland just released an official statement on twitter that they will retheme splash mountain with the princess and the frog
Yay
Boo
I Just hope they keep the name Splash mountain!
I love how in the lift and drop “friends on the other side” fits so well! From when he says “Yes!”, and the lift begins 5:27 to when he says “...Side!” and you go down 6:03. Sadly this takes place after the ending so we’re most likely not going to see this song. But the way it is pasted so perfectly into the ride makes it so realistic, Great Job!
Okay... I'm 100% against this idea but the lift hill got me. When he says "yes.." I will admit that it did work well.
I agree. If they incorporate that into the drop then it can work. I still love song of the south and feel it's being treated harshly through a lens that is not accurate. I will miss the song of the south theme to splash mountain.
They should never change this ride this is a ride for kings if they want to make a princess ride go do it somewhere else
kingviper186 It’s for children.
@@itsRabbitSeasonYo It's most definitely not being treated unfairly. That film has been controversial since it even released. Many critics said it was problematic even then. I'm honestly surprised they even kept the ride this long.
@@kingviper1867 srry brer bear sold the mountian to tiana after he was mad chase he couldn't knock brer rabbits heaf
This music fits SO WELL -- I honestly enjoyed this video almost as much as I enjoyed the ride itself. I think they should use your idea!!! I'm sure they could do some truly incredible things with the neon ghost effects for the scary part, too.
Bro this aged like fine wine 💀 also amazing timing with the sounds
They could easily just extend New Orleans Square, retheming Critter Country into the southern Bayou
Philip Kippel yes, deal with it racist.
THE ARE YOU READY PART WAS SO GOOD OMGGGG
Well this aged well..............
I CANT WAIT TO RIDE THIS OMG🐸💃🏿💃🏾👸🏾👸🏾💫✨✨
I really hope Friends on the other side is the drop song. It fits so well. However, we might not get that bc Disney confirmed the story of the ride takes place after the movie. The story of the ride is everyone helping Tiana prepare for her first Mardi Gras
But if they used it anyway as a recounting of the movie they could use it
Words can’t explain how excited I am for this!! The movie and soundtrack fit perfectly with the ride
I think it would be interesting and cool, i would just be very upset seeing splash mountain leaving because it’s my favorite ride
It’s Just Getting A Paint Job To Look Like Princess And The Frog Stuff
@Random Human wow guess you like being racist like the ride was
I don’t believe so.
it’s not leaving, just getting a remodel!
@Culinary Masterminds the ride wasn't racist you stale walnut
I don’t know why people are thumbs downing this video it’s gonna happen whether you want it or not .
FeverishGlobe43 I know but this person is just making a video of how it might turn out they didn’t make the decision for it to happen. Understand fully imma miss it too but Walt always looked ahead there’s gonna be new rides we hate and new rides we love more memories and to share with our family in the future being able to say you went on it before it got changed.
@FeverishGlobe43 they should get over it. Song of the south is old and few care about it.
This is genius. This is probably my favorite Disney movie so I'm a little bias but wow this came out better than I could have even imagined.
Splash mountain is totally separate from song of the south. Princess and the frog deserves a ground up attraction not a re-skin. Plus princess and the frog is inaccurate to the racism of the time in the south
They need to retheme SPLASH MOUNTAIN to a ZOOTOPIA log FLUME ride 🐰🦊🏙️🌃🗻 princess and the frog does not fit in critter country
@Random Human The stories were stolen by a white journalist from tales slaves told him, tales these slaves used to get them through the hard times of slavery. He then profited off the stories with his popular book of them and never credited the slaves who told them to him. Disney then based the film and characters off that book and the film and ride itself are still profiting on these tales by white men who have no business profiting off them.
FeverishGlobe43 the ride is racist then...💀
FeverishGlobe43 u contradicted yourself
@@bridgetmistryable now this I could get behind. I am going to miss seeing critters on this ride!

I laughed a bit tbh
@@momvaz6613 The actual lyrics are "make it" not the n word, its just subtitles that can't put correct words lol

As Friends on the Other Side was going and I was vibing, I thought "imagine if they synced the ascent with the "YES ARE YOU READY" and then it happened and holy moley you even got the timing of the end with the drop! This is marvelous!
can we talk about that amazing timing for the friends on the other side with the lift hill hahaha
YOOO THEY'RE DOING IT!!!
I’ll miss the original one but It’ll be exiting to see something new. :)
This is so interesting to see now that it’s official!!!!!! This makes me excited for it! The music fits ❤️
The layout should be this: beginning is where we are introduced with the New Orleans song. As we go up we are introduced to the fireflies. As you go inside the tunnel the next song from the video plays (I forgot it’s name). Then in the dark tunnels leading to the lift to the drop, tiana and the prince are chased by the shadows and the shadows are defeated by the top of the lift, finally ya drop into the bottom and enter the final room to see tiana and the prince getting married and getting their restaurant. Ngl guys, this change is gonna be phenomenal
What exactly is racist in the ride of Splash Mountain? Do the lyrics or music in the ride mention anything offensive? Following the logic, I am Mexican. So does the Grand Fiesta Tour need to be closed at Disney-world because it represent Mexicans with common symbols as sombreros, mariachis, and piñatas?
That ride would be WAY better Coco-themed
Ivy Lomax yes, but the point is that Splash Mountain the ride isn’t racist
Zip e dee do da is literally based off a pre civil war song called Zip Coon....a whole racial slur
splash mountain is based of a 1946 movie called "song of the south" which is a racist film.
Yes the ride is based on a racial movie, but the actual ride isn't racist. People are being stupid and zipadeedoodah is such a classic song, it has a totally different meaning in the ride
I would love if right before the big drop it was a scene with Doctor Facilier and the song was a short version of "Are you ready?!" I honestly think it would be a lost opportunity if they didnt use it😂
I love how you did it here, the timing was perfect!
I almost cried when I heard that they would be re-theming splash mountain because it was my favorite ride at the Disney parks but I am glad they picked a good movie, at first I thought princess and the frog didn’t fit in frontier land but then I see that splash mountain didn’t either. I am happy it is princess and the frog
Splash Mountain definitely stood out the most in Frontierland lol
I have never went to splash mountain since I was scared for fact I was gonna go this year but nope since splash mountain is closed which sucks
Can't they ADD a Princess and the Frog ride? And keep Splash Mountain ALSO?
I love Princess and the Frog, but Splash Mountain is my all-time favorite ride!!! I think it would be better placed in New Orleans Square near that place that sells the yummy Tiana style Mickey binets or in Fantasyland along with the other fellow princess rides. It feels out of place there.
If the don’t make tiana’s restaurant if suing
Hopefully it’ll come with the New Orleans Square expansion. I wanna try Tiana’s beignets 🥺
catdisc same UwU
Alexandra Brown yes :3
this is absolute perfection
no but seriously, someone email this to disney
onions it was announced yesterday that theyre retheming the ride to princess and the frog!
I personally think that the reskin of splash mountain to Princess and the Frog is a wonderful idea! It would work perfectly with the ride. Not to mention that not a lot people know the story of Splash Mountain or the original movie behind the ride anymore. But EVERYONE knows Princess and the Frog nowadays. So yes, let Disney change the ride. I'll miss Splash Mountain, but excited to see what Disney has in store for the change of the ride!
THIS CONCEPT IS FANTASTIC I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT
Honestly, having seen Song of the South, it's no worse of a movie than Gone With the Wind, and therefore should be no less available than that movie. Banning things doesn't solve any problems, and changing this ride would scrap pieces of history.
Agree. I’m a minority and this cancel culture’s getting ridiculous.
@@ajv7575 But are you black?
@@ajv7575 I'd say do what they will with the figures of Brer Rabbitt, Brer Bear and Brer Fox, but keep the rest asthey can be rethemed as they had before. Or be kept elsewhere as museum pieces. They were spared smelting once, I hope they dodge that fate again.
MarkLovesParks would you be willing to go so far to say that before this had any public attention this year, that you honestly rode this ride and felt like you were being racially oppressed while riding it?
AJ V I agree with you. Out of the 50 years that this has been up and running as the way we know it, some are having a problem with it now?…Idk about you, but this whole Splash Mountain being racist talk is rather…Convenient…Especially with all that has been going on this year.
Watching this video after the official re theming announcement made me excited to see what creative things they can this classic ride into
Yep
Disclaimer* This is a joke...They don't have mountains in the swamp. Trust me I'm from New Orleans, lol. I did say this when the movie first came out though that it was transition perfect with splash mountain.
it can easily be changed into something else. his friends on the other side?
They could build a building on all of the ride
Another issue is that it doesn’t fit with Frontierland. But neither does Song of the South.
@@ecoRfan that's what I was saying splash mountain never fitted in frontier land they only put it in fronteir land cause magic kingdom didn't have a critter country
When you hear this, how can you NOT want an update? Not only is Princess and the Frog a more modern, progressive film that kids will better recognize (not many people have even seen song of the south or like it). BUT it also ties in a great New Orleans counterpart, you know, the Disney Land section this ride is RIGHT next too? It just makes so much sense. They redid Tower of Terror, why not just update this one as well? Makes more sense in drawing in younger crowds and is arguabley more recognizable beyond "that one ride at Disney.
And it fits so good! Go look at some concept art ideas people have, this ride hurts none with an update.
How about no? Splash Mountain is an all time classic that has been replicated at other Disney parks, and who gives a shit if kids don't recognize the characters? That's their fault, not Disney's. There is also nothing racist about Song of the South either. You need to realize that the only guests that matter are the purists and purists want Splash Mountain to stay and Princess and the Frog to never see the light of day. Not every Disney attraction has to be based on a pre-existing IP and nobody cares if some Disney movies are denied representation. As for Tower of Terror, I can tell you it will be coming back because Disney stands to lose Marvel when Congress breaks them up under antitrust and takes Marvel away.
THIS IS THE BEST IDEA I LIVE PRINCESS AND THE FROG AND THE VOODOO PART FITS AMAZING AND ITS JUST UGH! AMAZING PERIOD!
I don’t know if you have heard yet but they just confirmed they are redoing splash to princess and the frog. IM SO EXCITED
Maybe in Disneyland it would be a good fit but it’s not the same at MK. I would prefer a separate ride or show in Fantasy land with the other princess’s and Tianas restaurant. Kind of like what they did with Beauty & the Beast.
@@isabelc2491 I did!!! Just heard today, so excited!!!!!
Guys the prayers have been answered, both Disney and GMA have announced that it’s happening!
I had an idea for a ride like that it would be called rays bayou
Nice!
Justinaijah Foots I like that idea. Pay respects to Ray
I feel like the cave part would be a good part to do Going Down the Bayou since it is a dark area so they could easily do projections and screens for that part. However they shouldn't overuse the screens in the scene as they can also use lights and animatronics for possibly the characters going across the bayou with the fireflies.
It’s official disney confirmed they are redoing splash mountain to princess and the frog!
This is my favorite Disney movie. So glad they finally made a ride out of it.
no
I’m....actually really torn. I love the original Splash Mountain, I love THIS, and I have my OWN idea that I ALSO really love. Imo they could do one of these 3 things:
1) keep Splash Mountain the way it is, the original iconic Splash Mountain,
2) retheme it to Princess and the Frog and have it be like this, which, honestly, I don’t think would be as good as the original but it would be pretty damn close, or
3) my own idea that almost NO one has mentioned yet: take down the just-okay Winnie the Pooh ride that’s right next to Splash Mountain, take the Pooh animatronics you ALREADY HAVE, and instead of Song of the South, make the ride about Winnie the Pooh! It could even still be called splash mountain that way! They could put the heffalumps and woozles in the “everyone’s got a laughing place” scene, the big drop could be from the scene where the rain floods everyone’s houses, they could combine stuff from all the different movies in the franchise. If Splash Mountain HAS to change, I want them to change it to this:)
Philip Kippel hopefully!
Enigma McC YES
They need to retheme SPLASH MOUNTAIN to a ZOOTOPIA log FLUME ride 🐰🦊🏙️🌃🗻 princess and the frog does not fit in critter country
Liam's Animation world hmmm I don’t know. Zootopia takes place in a big city for the most part, I don’t think it would be a good fit.
@@bridgetmistryable they deserve their own land at animal kingdom
I notice that the layout in Flordia and California are completely different I wonder what major differences there will be between the two
Also don’t be mad that the ride is changing .
The premise of the movie was to glorify the life as a slave during the reconstruction era . Nothing is kid friendly about slavery and the movie made it seem like slavery wasn’t bad . Educate yourself 🥱
This appears to be recorded on the Tokyo version
@@ecoRfan no the Disneyland VERSION
The Florida VERSION is longer because they have alot more space than Disneyland
Keep splash mountain the way it is.
Yeeeesss Don't CHANGE SPLASH MOUNTAIN !!!!! It's a classic Icon ride for Disneyland !! Which is known right off the bat when you think of Splash Mountain you know instantly what it is and feels so like the part of Disneyland to which it is .
I agree keep it the way it iss!!! Brer Rabbit , Brer Fox and Brer Bear!!! and The beloved Classic Song!! That WON a Academy Award!!
Renstein45 It won an academy award in the 40s in which racism was still around. It’s a shame you believe it should be praised because it’s an iconic ride. But it’s an iconic ride giving the wrong message to younger audiences. Whenever you search up where did splash mountain originate from, it’s going to say song of the south which is a movie that glorifies that being a slave is amazing. I know the ride is about the critters, but as you reach the end , it’s the dong zippy-dee-doo-da which derives from ‘zippy coon’ which is based off of African American stereotypes.

FeverishGlobe43 actually people do know about it’s past. People have done the research. Also it’s technically promoting racism because one of the ceos, I think Michael E. decided to add the characters to promote Song Of The South. You should look more into the history of those characters and the storyline behind it.
California Screamin' became the Incredicoaster.
That was big mistake
Retheming will happen more at DCA, we're landlocked. DCA 1.0 was a joke, so Cal locals need new ENTERTAINMENT, best way to keep things fresh for a low cost, and still pull 'em in.
Thats totally different since California screamin never had a story it was a roller coaster on boardwalk. Splash mountain the rid fits everything from song of the south to change it to something else wouldn't make any sense which means they'd have to change the entire ride.
@@briancalifornia1 and they did it to Malestorm...they completely changed it to Frozen...and it works
Nicholas Druce That was a poorly planned slapping of statues on a ride. This would be different.
i really hope this is the order of the music bc this is perfect for the new retheme!
The Other Side right before the drop is PERFECT!!!
As much as I love the splash mountain theme, I have high expectations for this as well, Disney has a good reputation for taking something we love and making it better
Yes except for guardians of the galaxy and rockit rods though :)
