Attractions long gone but missed

I don't miss AoS at all..... Carousel of Progress, yes.... Also miss Monsanto, America the Beautiful and People Mover (can you tell I am bitter over the disastrous Tomorrowland makeover).

Oh...... and the Pack Mules, Mine Train Through Natures Wonderland and the Stagecoach.......
 
I wish we had those sky bucket things, I don't know the actual name for them.. I also wish that the people mover was back but at the same time I really miss Rocket Rods even though it broke down a lot.

Skyway.

I think Rocket Rods was one of the most ill-conceived rides ever. It destroyed three other rides (People Mover, Rocket Jets & America the Beautiful).

I don't really remember America the Beautiful.. but Rocket Jets wasn't exactly destroyed though, its still around or something [Astro Orbiter right?, the only difference is that it's not on top of that building anymore.]

Going from three stories up on top of the People Mover to ground level it became Dumbo in a different form. When you pushed the jet to its highest from on top of the PM you were really, really high. It was awesome.
 
I loved Rockets Rods! I was explaining the ride to my sons during our last trip. They were so bummed that it didn't exist anymore.
 
Another vote for Skyway!!! The anticipation as you approached the Matterhorn, then going through it, hearing the windy mountain SFX was soooooo awesome!!! I so wish they's bring that back!
 
Peoplemover was my favorite, even as a teen.
 
I loved going through the Tron section of the People Mover. I also have vague memories of a revolving theater....?
 
I miss Adventures Through Inner Space, The People Mover,and Rocket Rods. I am glad I was not the only one who liked that ride.
 
I wish I could ride all of the "classics" that aren't around anymore.

But, on the other hand, I think about all the people who got to ride Adventures Through InnerSpace but may not have had the opportunity to ride Indiana Jones or Radiator Springs Racers.

I know it's a source of contention on what Walt would think of DLR, but rides like Little Mermaid and RSR... I'm sure he'd love them.
 
I would love a return of the PeopleMover. It could be updated to show characters moving through different lands both at DL (like Mickey and Minnie at their Toon Town houses) and glimpses into movies that are not yet rides. It would be fun to be able to ride through a chalk drawing from Mary Poppins for example. I loved PM because it was a longer more attraction version of the monorail. I also wish the current Disneyland RR which I love and am so thankful for (walking breaks) would be updated as well but lol that is not part of this question, Let's see...I only have vague Country Bear memories but thought they were cute. There could be a Hundred Acre Wood version of that somehow. I was not much into the movie 20,000 leagues under the sea but though the original submarine ride was better than the current Nemo one. I would love to see now as an adult the Main Street Electrical Parade!
