- Baby Yoda Mountain proposed -- nm - budice Jun 10, 17:17 6
  - They could rebrand it as Mr. Toad's Wild Splash Mountain -- nm - Strongbad Jun 10, 17:23 5
    - My knee jerk reaction was: Do not want. However I'd be on board if the drop is rethemed as a flaming drop into hell - JD Jun 10, 17:30
    - Funny Note. At Disneyland. Splash Mountain kinda right across from Star Wars Land -- nm - budice Jun 10, 17:27 3
      - Naboo Mountain -- nm - Strongbad Jun 10, 17:39 1

- There's nothing particularly memorable or significant about the theming, frankly. It references a cartoon that most people haven't seen... *EVER*. -- nm - Mop Jun 10, 17:05 3
  - its hands down one of my favorite attractions at MK -- nm - Jovian Jun 10, 17:17 2
    - I'll grant you this... - Mop Jun 10, 17:25
    - ours, too. -- nm - prayformojo Jun 10, 17:24
- They're going to have to re-theme it. -- nm - David Jun 10, 16:54 14
  - Let's play everybody's favorite game show, "WHAT should they theme it?" - Mop Jun 10, 17:08 6
    - Moana ride. -- nm - Shaun Jun 10, 18:30
    - The best suggestion I've seen is The Princess and the Frog. -- nm - David Jun 10, 17:09 4
      - it'll be iether a Star Wars ride or Avatar -- nm - Remlik Jun 10, 18:51
      - That would definitely work. -- nm - znufrii Jun 10, 18:04
      - I love this. I feel it would be an easy fix, too. -- nm - Mop Jun 10, 17:21
      - that's actually really good. -- nm - Reagen Jun 10, 17:15
  - do not want -- nm - Jovian Jun 10, 17:04 6
    - Why do you love racist rabbits, Jovian? -- nm - Mop Jun 10, 17:10 4
      - there is nothing racist about Splash Mountain. - Jovian Jun 10, 17:12 3
        
        Mmmm... Brer Fox and the minstrel nature of it aren't super great. -- nm - Dark Callisto Jun 10, 17:20 2
        
        Ive never seen the movie, so Im probably not the best judge, but its just colorful and fun and nerve wracking. - Jovian Jun 10, 17:22 1
        
        I looooove the ride but there are troublesome bits. -- nm - Dark Callisto Jun 10, 17:54
    - Agreed. None of us want them to keep things from their racist past, thus the need to re-theme. -- nm - the wrong element, bad guy Jun 10, 17:09
