Any attractions you wish Disney kept but took out?


Not technically a ride but when I first started going to WDW in the 90's I loved the double decker busses that used to go around World Showcase.

Fortunately I got to see Osborn Lights once and also wish they were still up somewhere in the parks. And I've seen pictures of the lighted arches that used to go above the walk-way between Future World and World Showcase and would have loved to have seen them in person.
 
Yes, Tom Sawyer's Island... why are they taking it out?

And what was the real motive for Splash Mountain?
Tom Swayer's Island is being basically being bulldozed to become "Carsland" AKA Piston Peak

Splash was essentially rethemed to Tiana's Bayou Adventure to move away from the connections with Song of the South movie
 
My heart broke when they removedSnow White in the MK.

HyperSpace Hoopla StarWars Weekends went on for a month and were incredibly fun !

Remember when Disney would Live Stream the fireworks?
 
Not just attractions, but...

I miss:
  • The original Soarin
  • Backlot Tour
  • Free Fastpass+
  • Magical Express
  • Main Street Electrical Parade
  • Hollywood Studios Parades
  • Animal Kingdom Parades
  • Animation Academy at HS (the one at AK is out of the way, but glad they still have one)
  • Wishes (I do like HEA though)


I don't miss:
  • Stitch's Great Escape
  • Tom Sawyer Island
  • Maelstrom
  • Ellen's Energy Adventure
  • The "tombstone" legacy picture monoliths out front of Epcot
  • The Great Movie Ride
  • Illuminations
  • Enchantment Fireworks show (MK)
 
Tapestry of Nations parade at EpCot. Amazing music, costuming, floats and puppetry. True entertainment, not just parading beloved characters with a "theme" mostly applied to the floats--though there is an important place for these and I'd hate to see them leave. Like Spectromagic, which was also a huge favorite (the MUSIC)
