At that moment, the dad looked up at me and asked which stop was the front of the park. Only time I have ever asked a guest if they were joking. Turns out he wasn't. A 50 minute wait to ride the railroad to the front of the park.
One would think the sounds of screaming would've hinted to him that this wasn't the train he was looking for.

Disney also reportedly is working on a movie based on "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride."
... Isn't Mr. Toad
based on a movie? Is this whole article a joke?

Well, with the modifications to Pirates you have a ride based on a movie base dona ride, so why not a movie based on a ride based on a movie with Mr Toad?
It will provide symmetry! :D:

I should have looked before I came to work to see who put the movie out, but there is a movie about Mr Toad. I think it has one of the Monty Python guys in it. We watched it once, but that was all.

In 1949 Disney released
The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.
In 1996 Disney released
Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, which stared Eric Idle, John Cleese and Terry Jones of
Monty Python fame. Eric Idle was Rat, John Cleese as Mr. Toad's lawyer and Terry Jones directed and was Toad. So at least three Monty Python guys were in it.

Why not? It's worked for Batman and Superman for years.

Are you really comparing Toad and Big Thunder to iconic superheroes?

Sure. Isn't Mr. Toad pretty iconic?
