Which rides did you feel were a total let down after waiting in line?

[DharmaLou]

I didn't LOVE Luigi's, but we didn't hate it. DD4 actually really liked it and we all had fun trying to make it maneuver.

Now Nemo (or the Subs prior) - that's a letdown.

I hated Indy the first time I rode it. Lol. I was there opening week. Waited nearly 4 hours with the line starting near Village Haus. I was about 13 and there was no such thing as smartphones or mobile gaming to occupy the time (although we had our nifty cave etching decoder cards for the queue). After, I felt it wasn't worth the wait. It didn't help that I hadn't seen any of the movies either. Of course now it's in my top 5 favorites... But at the time I was not impressed.

I have fond memories of that ride as a kid. I guess to each his own.

Yeah I know I am in the very small minority when it comes to not liking the Peter Pan Ride.

Luigi's Flying Tires for sure. Waited 30 minutes and was like "Is that it?!"

I'm not a fan of waiting for Goofy's Sky School either.

 

[Meriweather]

We rode Luigi's with about a 5 minute wait......that I can do. Wouldn't wait much longer.
And will NOT wait long for RSR again either. It was cute and all, but I guess I was expecting more.
Haven't been on the Nemo subs, hated the subs the first time around when I was young.
There really isn't much I will wait in line for very long. I try to time things so I don't have to.
Walked on Little Mermaid.....again cute, but not standing in line for it.

 

[CactusJack]

Definitely Luigi's Flying Tires. Very disappointed in it, especially after a 30 min wait.

The dodgem cars in A Bug's Land - I can't remember the name, but the one under the big top-like tent. We waitied almost 30 minutes in September, it was extremely hot and humid even under cover, and it was soooo sllooowww to load - the CM's would miscount how many people could go on, have to get some people back out, then realise they had spare cars, but they'd leave them empty only to put people in them the next cycle. It was painful. And then once we actually got on, it's no different to any similar ride at a carnival.

Autopia! I know it's a classic, but we waited so long in the rain last time we were there, and it was a huge let down. A CM had to actually get in the car with my son to finish driving for him. He was 9 at the time, but is autistic. He insisted on driving the car alone. He had traffic backed up forever while I was screaming in the car ahead of him, "push the pedal, go"!! What a nightmare! Maybe when he's older, but with a fastpass!

Little Mermaid. I was so excited to go on this after watching all the videos and sneak peak stuff. I rode it in October 2011, waited about 30 minutes, and wished I hadn't wasted the time I could have been on Screamin' or something. It was a cute ride, and the music was fun, but I think I had my hopes too high for it.

It's not like any other similar ride. Its speed is considerably slower than most bumper car rides I've ridden. The Tuck and Roll gibberish did make things a bit more interesting. My kid loved it though, and my wife probably wouldn't let us ride a real bumper car.

 

[DollBabyKG]

Luigis' for sure. We waited "20" minutes for it (really more like 30) and underwhelmed doesn't even begin to describe what we thought. It was boring, we barely moved and there was no point. I wouldn't even ride it again if it was a walk on.

I also second the feelings on Roger Rabbit. It's okay, and I'd ride it if the lines were shorter, but I won't wait for it more than 5 minutes.

 

[pixiewings71]

We only ride RR with a FP, won't do it if we have to wait in line. Although we do like the line decor and we will walk through it if the line is 10 minutes or so. lol I know that's a contradiction but it's true.
Rocket Rods.....OMG that ride sucked!! And we went right after it opened so the lines were insane! NEVER again. lol
Little Mermaid, I guess I was just expecting more and we did a AP preview so we had a long line, we waited about an hour to get on it and then I was let down. I like it well enough, but I won't ride it if the line is more then 10-20 minutes.

YES! These bumper cars are extremely slow! I hope I don't have to ride these again. I actually kind of like a bumper car ride now and then at our local amusement park but these things were a major let down even for this type of ride.

I always felt Roger rabbit was the worst ride ever until Luigis.... That was the worst waste of 15 minutes I ever spent in my life lol

We went on Luigi's for the first time over Thanksgiving. We waited about 20 minutes and that was to long. If the tires were controlled better it would be a fun ride. I wouldn't be suprised to see more tweaks to that ride down the road.

When we went on Autopia last week, we stood on our waiting numbers where you load in the car for several minutes, even the other track had come, unloaded, and departed already and we were still waiting, although some of the first cars had come back. Finally this girl, probably about 10 or so pulls up very slowly in her car, she must've been having issues with the pedal or the engine (I know my engine stalled 3x).

The girl did not look happy. Finally a CM helped her get her car to her number spot. The second she got out of the car ride she just burst into tears and hugged her Dad who was behind her. I felt so bad for her. I just push the pedal for my daughter while she steers, even for me an adult, on some of those cars I have to push down hard on that pedal to get the car moving. Between that and the car stalling and the fumes, I'd say that it is past time for Autopia to get a major overhaul or be closed.

I'd say at the very least they should be retrofitting them with fuel-injected engines and catalytic converters. I shudder to think what it was like in the 50s/60s when they had even less advanced carbs and were using leaded gas.

We waited about the same length of time for Nemo and Luigi's (first time on both) this summer, probably a little longer for Luigi's. But I actually quite enjoyed Luigi's and would ride again, but Nemo I was kind of underwhelmed by.

 

[Meech Loves Mickey]

We just got back last night! I agree that Luigi's is lame. We waited 30 min for that ride, never again. It was too much work to lean to get your tire to move.

RSR was an awesome ride, but if we didn't get a FP, I wouldn't ride it. I personally don't feel ANY ride is worth more than a 30-40 min wait.

My toddler LOVED Hemlich's train. We probably rode it with him 5 or 6 times. My older DS rode it too, but he was just riding to be with his brother, and wasn't really that into it.

 

[Priory]

I know they removed the joysticks from Luigis shortly before opening. I don't know why. It seems if you could control the tire it would be more fun. Maybe it didn't work.
