It's hard to describe exactly what is better about POTC at DL. I went to DL many times over the years before my first WDW trip last year and always loved Pirates. After riding at WDW, I was very disappointed. At first, I thought maybe it was just because it was different, but I didn't have the same experience with HM. I loved the WDW version of HM. I wouldn't say it's better, but it's just as good.

So for WDW, I'd definitely pick HM.

i wish you had the option to vote for a tie.

well it has to be POTC for me simply because this was my first WDW attraction i went on. i still remember it as if it happened yesterday. the beginning of my WDW addiction. i still have to ride this many times during my visit. HM was also an amazing attraction for my first visit also. every tie i ride this i still feel like i find things going on that i have never noticed before


HM or POTC..... i would change my trip dates to WDW if either of these rides were down for maintenance

Thats why its a good poll, right? Although, I'm surprised how badly HM is whooping up on POTC.

Well, DS9 would say HM. I'll never get him on POTC again. This past Feb. we went to ride and he asked the CM if he remember to say good morning to George. The CM was teasing him and said he couldn't remember, that he didn't think so. He asked the other CM who said she didn't know, she didn't open up. The CM then noticed DS's birthday button, wished him a happy birthday and teasingly told him he hoped it wasn't his last. So, we get on the boat and I start quietly calling out "George, George!" to which my DS and DD6 quickly tell me to stop.
Anyway, we are the next boat to get off, going up the conveyer belt and the ride comes to a stop. And it doesn't start back up. We wait a few minutes and it still doesn't start back up. By this time DS is in tears and I am cracking up laughing at him. The people in the boat in front of us can climb to the front of the boat and walk off. They push the people behind us back to get them off but we are on the conveyer belt so we are stuck! We were stuck for about 25 minutes. They had to bring out a portable bridge for us to get out. DS did enjoy going out of the back and seeing where they store the parade floats. And we did get front of the line passes.
Oh, and the CM helping us with the bridge was the one who was teasing him. When I reminded him he just said, "I was kidding!" It was pretty funny.
DS said he will never ride it again, even when he is an adult. I told them that according to Disney, he will be an adult on his next birthday!
