6 Disney Movies That Would Have Made Better Rides Than "Song Of The South"

Hint: almost ANY of them.

This past June, Disney announced that the ride, "Splash Mountain," would abandon the extremely racist 1948 film, "Song of the South," and be rebuilt and rebranded around "The Princess and the Frog." This is super exciting, but it did not escape my attention that it took until 2020 for Disney to A) get rid of a ride dedicated to a film that glorifies slavery and B) give "The Princess and the Frog" the major attraction it clearly deserves. So, I did some Disney sleuthing, and here are 6 Disney Movies that should have been made into rides before "Song of the South" was EVER considered.

1. "The Story of Menstruation"

Psh! Women.

You and your family hop into the ovary cars, the ovarcoaster, if you will, with great gusto. You zoom into a fallopian tube, twisting and turning past preteen girls sobbing into their boudoirs. "Oh no! A cyst approaches!" Mickey Zaps it without even trying. He is Fantasia. You are safe. Minnie Sobs nearby, bleeding enthusiastically. Your middle-aged husband is slapped in the face by airborne endometrial tissue. He smiles softly. He finally understands women.

2. "The Brave Little Toaster"

The Brave Little Toaster

I think the toaster's cute friend might be a vacuum bag? I'm not sure, but I would kill and die for him/her

You get into the toaster and he's just so f*cking brave. He gives a speech about loyalty and friendship. With tears in your eyes, you run to the nearest theme park bathroom and call your meanest relative. Families reunited. Years of estrangement healed. YOU are the toaster.

3. "Fuzzbucket"

Disney's "Fuzzbucket" alien

Just LOOK at him

You don't get on this ride. No one gets on this ride unless they actively hate themselves. You've heard it consists of being locked in a dark treehouse with a hairy rodent man called Fuzzbucket who has no concept of personal space.

4. "That Darn Cat"

That meddling cat!

You get into a very average rollercoaster car. Suddenly, you hear meows. The cat has stolen the roller coaster! Darn! You chuckle all the way home.

5. "The Gnome Mobile"

image the book mobile of yore, but this time with GNOMES inside

You are on a bus and there are gnomes, oh, so many gnomes. They're singing about gnome life which consists of moss and hippity hoppity. A animatron gnome places a flower crown on your head and, staring into their joyfully blank robot eyes, you finally discover the secret to ending climate change.

6. "Unidentified Flying Oddball"

The knights of the round table but the table is a flying saucer and the knights are BOTS

You are handed a robot duck and a flower crown. You are the sword in the stone. It is the space ride but with ducks and swords. If someone knows what the plot of this movie is please notify me immediately. The two sentences on Wikipedia continue to haunt me.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
