If this was released on @DisneyPlus, it would have high viewership. If #SplashMountain returned, it would have record line waits, & merchandise would fly off the shelves. #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @DisneyParks @WaltDisneyCo @Disney

Here's a late 70's TV spot for a reissue of Walt Disney's Song of the South.

I’m thankful my dad was able to get me this film while visiting the UK in the 90’s after I fell in love with my first visit to Splash Mountain. I learned so much about it over the years. James’ performance is masterful!

💯 agree. Bring back #SplashMountain. #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @DisneyParks @WaltDisneyCo @Disney

What took people so long to not be afraid of watching this movie? We lost a classic ride because of people’s ignorance and refusal to learn and watch a movie. Just because YOU personally don’t understand something don’t make it racist or whatever you wanna call it.

To @Disney, let the world see James Baskett’s performance in SOTS & bring back #SplashMountain. #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @DisneyParks @WaltDisneyCo @Disney

Despite what you heard, Song of the South is an anti-racist film. Watch it for yourself and see.
Why Song of the South is one of the best Disney films, and is unabashedly pro-African American

Old article I wrote, but a retrospect on Song of the South in time for its 80th anniversary and it's removal from the Disney World.... geeksandgamers.com/disney-er…

Disney has removed the last known reference to Song of the South from Walt Disney World at Walt Disney Presents in Disney Hollywood Studios – and in doing so, removed a part of Walt’s legacy as well....

Interestingly enough my SONG OF THE SOUTH (1946) watch party with my commentary of the film is being hit up like crazy over on YouTube. Feel free to check it out if you are so inclined and find out why I think the 'racist' labeling of this film is pure BS. youtube.com/live/22ktwL19Ans

All I saw yesterday was nothing but praise for James Baskett, #SplashMountain, Br’er critters, the songs, the movie. It’s pretty clear the majority loved Splash. Bring it back. #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @DisneyParks @WaltDisneyCo @Disney

SOTS & #SplashMountain are apart of @Disney history. In 2020, it was nothing but fake outage from a small loud mob that hates everything & wants everything canceled. Bring back Splash. #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @DisneyParks @WaltDisneyCo

On this day 80 years ago, Song of the South premiered in Atlanta, Georgia. The film was the highest grossing film of 1946, and laid the ground work for Splash Mountain, one of Disney's best theme park attractions Man ah gotta do what toonhive doesn't....

That’s what everybody says when they see this movie for the first time. A small pathetic loud mob demanded Splash be destroyed & hate SOTS because social media told them too. #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @DisneyParks @WaltDisneyCo @Disney

Song of the South (80 Today) should be seen because hiding it erases crucial black film history. Condemning it only punishes the memory of black cinematic pioneers like James Baskett, first black man to win an Oscar, rendering their historic contributions invisible.

Distwitter: “Oh, #SplashMountain has to go, it’s offensive.” Distwitter: “Loved the @DisneyParks in Tokyo. Great seeing Rivers of 🇺🇸 & Splash Mountain again.” 🤦‍♂️ #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @Disney @WaltDisneyCo

Bingo. @Disney panicked & pandered to the wrong horse. They listened to a small loud mob & ignored the majority that loved #SplashMountain. Bring back Splash. #SaveSplashMountain @Disneyland @WaltDisneyWorld #SaveMagicKingdom @DisneyParks @WaltDisneyCo

Distwitter is a bubble and does not represent the general populace. Despite what some people would have you believe, more people know the truth behind SOTS than you might be led to think.
