That's exactly what they'll be doing. It's cheaper and easier than maintaining AAs (which they don't do very well anymore), and they spent OLC money to develop it and now can clone it for their company owned parks. Fits the current Disney Imagineering MO perfectly.

If that’s what happens, then in the words of the legendary Saul Goodman...
I think it will be just OK. It's probably going to be screen reliant. I doubt it will equal how great the Splash ride has been, just about a perfect Disney family attraction combination of tons of AA's, fun entertaining story, excellent music. Disney imagineering just doesn't do that kind of stuff anymore. Great does not always happen.If that’s what happens, then in the words of the legendary Saul Goodman...

I still feel like you should get Keith David for your ride because he's Keith David, continuity and magical rules be damned.
I'm expecting Navi River Journey in a bayou tbh...or perhaps something similar to the Alice redo at DL
There will probably be a few AAs..and the proverbial "super-mega-ultra-most-amazing-thing-to-ever-be-created" fluid AA
But overall a lot of projection

Whenever I see discussions about AA’s for the Splash redo, it always feels like people forget that it’s been all but confirmed that a lot of splash’s figures (really any they can get away with) are being reused.
A New Scene and New Critters Are Introduced for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
We’re one step closer to going down the bayou as Walt Disney Imagineering reveals a new scene from Tiana’s Bayou Adventure! Take a look at this new scene and some of the brand-new characters we’re creating specifically for the attraction coming
disneyparks.disney.go.com
Assuming most of the ride is going to be scenes like this, and assuming the characters we're seeing there are actual figures, this is promising for the rest of the ride.
Disney is finally going through with it after two and a half years. Didn't think it would take them this long.
I think it's a little shady that they're deliberately holding off on the closure date for DL's. Watch it be on the day right before Runaway Railway opens so they can get more people in the park before the ride opens. That would be such a Disney move. I expect them to announce it very last-minute.
Also wondering if the scenes are going to be designed exactly the same as each other as both have different kind of boats. Will they design scenes tailored for each version or will they try to design it to have the same scenes but for the size of the version (If that makes any sense)?

I don't think they had everything thought out when they announced it, just kind of a rough idea. The figured it would quiet critics to announce it, and they weren't ready to close it and lose the capacity until Tron was ready to open as well.
Yup, it was very similar to when they announced Pandora from what it seemed like when it was announced.
I’m at MK right now waiting in line to ride Splash one last time. It’s 62 degrees out and the line had a 85 minute wait when I got in and that seems to be an underestimation based on how little I’ve moved so far.
I’ll wait though just to ride it as Splash one last time. I’m definitely not coming tomorrow to try when it will be way worse due to it being the final day.

I ended up getting on the ride at the absolute perfect time. Saw the fireworks finale while up on the ride. Probably the best memory I could’ve hoped for for my last time.
Took some pictures and gave out some Cast Compliments to some CMs that were going above and beyond, specifically to one of the CMs taking pics of almost every family in line in front of the Splash sign when that’s not her job.

Bye Splash, you're a fun log flume with cool rockwork and lots of AAs that WDI messed up by tainting it with stolen stories and minstral songs.
Splash was my fav WDW attraction. It always put a big smile on my face. I will miss it greatly. Hopefully, it's replacement will be close to as entertaining. The new theme has promise. But fingers
crossed on whether the present weak group of Imagineers can equal Splash.
