The ride, based on the 1946 film ‘Song of the South,’ will reopen next year as Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, themed to 2009’s ‘The Princess and the Frog’
The Splash Mountain log flume ride opened in Disneyland’s Critter Country on July 17, 1989. Park designers reused animatronic creatures from the closed “America Sings” ride, and based them on sequences from the 1946 Disney movie “Song of the South,” also adding new characters such as Brer Bear, Brer Fox and Brer Rabbit. In total, the ride has 103 creatures.
Riders get into a “hollowed-out log” and ride it through swamps and bayous, ending up in a giant 52-foot waterfall drop, during which many, if not most, people get wet. In today’s world, it has come under fire by some for using elements from “Song of the South” that critics say perpetuate racial stereotypes.
