^This^ You can freeze the animatronics and turn off the dialouge in this moment and you'd still know that Br'er Fox was about clobber Br'er Rabbit while he's distracted laughing at Br'er Bear The same can't be said for Bayou where the scenes turn into "Tiana and Louis stand behind a bunch of animals" when you turn off the music and freeze everything.

Tiana's needs its AA's to function properly more than Splash did. The scenes in Splash worked even when static.

Well… rode it today, mostly clean sheet. Definitely a downgrade. Queue is an upgrade. Feels like it got 80% the way there and just faltered. Lots of noticeably broken effects despite never having ridden it. Flickering big Tiana screen, b-mode Tiana, broken lift screen.

They even took Splash out of the name. Wouldn't that fix it?? I mean, the bayous of Texas and Louisiana are known for their dry, non-humid climates.

Who could have foreseen there would be water in this environment?

do we know the most common cause for a particular function not working properly on these animatronic? I remember reading earlier that it's the moisture in the air that isn't playing nice with the all electronic AAs. What is the fix overnight to repair it if the malfunctions are limited to a couple functions and not the entire AA?

The ride is good and there are parts that are certainly improvements over Splash. Having said that, the Animatronics weren't working particularly well on the two rides I've had thus far. I'm 1 for 4 in working Mama Odie animatronics. I haven't seen Juju, and the indoor Tiana's and Louis's have been hit or miss. I think it's perfectly reasonable to say that the second half of the attraction (the double drop and beyond) is better than Splash Mountain. I certainly can't say that they cheaped out on this. Aesthetically, the exterior of the attraction looks much better than Splash every did.
