Count me among the Monsters, Inc. fans. It would be a classic Disney dark ride in any case, but knowing how they transformed SuperStar Limo on a limited budget makes me admire Imagineering that much more.
My funny story about Little Mermaid is when we went to an annual passholder preview of it. The wait was something like an hour; the entire queue including wrapping around the back of the building was in use. My daughter, four years old at the time, loved everything Ariel. We got on the ride, rode it, and then I asked her what she thought. With the seriousness and intensity that only a four year-old can convey, she said, "Daddy, we don't ever have to ride that again."
