Disappointing rides which we could happily leave out......?

[hayles77]

Are there any rides that just aren't that good? Thx

That's a very subjective question. What some people love, others strongly dislike. If you tell us a little more about what kinds of things your family does not like to do, folks here on the Dis might be able to better answer your question.

Very hard question to answer without knowing more about your likes/dislikes. Please tell us ages, motion sickness, amount of time available, scare factor tolerance, cute-ness tolerance, etc.

Stitch's great escape is pretty much universally accepted as a complete waste of time.

Primevil Whirl was also a fairly unpleasant experience.

The only one that comes to mind for me is Stitch's Great Escape. It's loud, dark, scary for little ones and you inevitably hear little kids screaming their heads off, and then Stitch "burps" creating the worst smell ever.

All of that being said, my teenage son LOVES it! Go figure!

 

[CAS239]

Definitely agree with Stitches great escape. Has to be the worst "ride" out of all the parks. Even though it's not a ride

Stitch in MK

I have 2 boys - ages 6 and (will be) 8 - love fast coasters but also have a soft spot for the likes of it's a small world.......

Another vote for Stitch in MK. Our kids STILL are haunted by that ride! So much so they won't even watch the movie anymore.

Very subjective. If you haven't been before you would possibly prioritize based on your family but I would try everything once if possible to see if you/your family like it.

Even without knowing your tastes, I think I can safely say Stitch's Great Escape in MK is one to skip. Instead, ride the Tomorrowland Transit Authority for an enjoyable break with fantastic views. There is rarely ever a wait for it, too.

Also (and I know I'll be dodging rotten tomatoes for saying this), but I find Soarin' at EPCOT waaaaay over-hyped and highly skippable. The flat screen in my own living room is more technologically advanced, and no one's feet are dangling in front of my face.

 

[circus4u]

Agree with Stitch and Soarin. Would also include Test Track; can't see what all the hoopla is over that one.

 

[FeralCatRogue]

For me the only ride I would never do again is voyage of the little mermaid, 1.5 hour line for barely felt like a minute ride. Stitch as well I wouldn't do again, but I did before it was altered to be more friendly so no idea how bad it is now. Beyond that its all personal opinion, health issues, etc. that people pointed out.

 

[jennie3675]

Captain EO for me.......like being in a time warp!

 

[Fsudisney]

In MK, Stitch, Astro Orbiter, Hall or presidents.

In Epcot, captain EO for sure, and I hated Mission space.

 

[BrownHP800]

I know I will get flack for this, but Sorin'

I just don't understand why it is so popular.

I completely understand why people don't like Stitch, but I want to "ride" it every time I go. Stitch is my favorite character and I just injoy seeing and hearing him talk. It's funny to me.

I also enjoy PW. I'm a huge coaster enthusiast, but the "wild mouse" type rides are a lot of fun to me. I actually prefer it over Space, Big Thunder, and even RnR. Those to me don't compare to "big boy" coasters at other parks, but PW is just as much fun as other wild mouse rides, though a bit rough.

I know I'm probably in the minority though.

 

[cedricandsophie]

Very disappointed in voyage of little mermaid. Very amateurish compared to other newer rides. My husband lived Peter Pan but I could avoid easily.

 

[dayvewc]

Just me, but I was greatly underwhelmed by Test Track in EPCOT, TSMM, and RnR in HS, TriceraTop Spin in AK, and Little Mermaid, BarnStormer, and TeaCups in MK.

It might be that I usually travel by myself, and these just don't appeal to me, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
