Rides that should be retired....

Another vote for "Sounds Dangerous"; My husband really likes it though (he likes TRYING to make out in the with me there and using the infrared light to tape things inside the dark theater).

Stitch can go.

"El Rio del Tiempo" in Mexico needs a HUGE overhaul. . . it's so outdated.

I wouldn't miss "Honey I Shrunk the Audience".

I agree with the poster about replacing Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular with the Disneyland ride.

I really like The Great Movie Ride AND Swiss Family Treehouse, though:)

Ahhhh, I love the Muppets, maybe it just needs updating and what would Disney be without Small World, so annoying it's funny!

Hmm, 'so annoying its funny' - not sure about that, the longest 9 minutes of my life, just want to jump out of the boat....I just think The Muppets now has been overtaken by more up to date rides, Shrek is much much better.

Also, the bride at the end is a little cheesey. The one in Paris has a bride too, but it ties into the rest of the ride. This one just seems like an afterthought. I LOVE most of the other scenes.


Did you know that there is a story behind Haunted Mansion? The bride is there for a reason.

I forgot about the original Figment ride. It was so good, I really liked it. I hate the new one. Thats another ride Disney can do without.

Is that Thornton Cleveleys England? If so, hello neighbour! I'm in Blackpool!
 

I really don't understand what's so fantastic about Peter Pan. It's raved sooo much about, but it really seems like a cheesy carnival ride. Aluminum Foil for a mountain? Give me a break.

But I do love Snow Whites Cardboard Adventures. I'd be sad if that went, it's nostalgic.

(am I the only one that loves El Rio De Tiempo?)
 
El Rio Del Tiempo is state of the art compared to the O Canada Movie.

As a Canadian I am almost offended by the fact that thousands of people a year view a movie that supposedly reflects Canada. Most notably the all-white (no Visible Minority) Mounties, the outrageous 1980s clothes and the seeming lack of development of our major cities gives the viewer the illusion that Canada is on economic and social par with a newly-minted Eastern European back-water.

Tirade ended.

I also think The Great Movie Ride could use some new AA figures and maybe some new movies. seems like it paused after Alien and Raiders.....

Yes it is , hello there!!!

Though my DH and DD absolutely love it I think It's a Small world needs to take a nice long nap!!!
 
Not a big fan of The Stitch thing in Magic Kingdom and also an even lesser fan of The Tiki Room Under New management
 
Great Movie Ride just needs a really good update. The Muppet show, being the first 3D, barely has any effects compared to other 3Ds and also just needs a really good update. I agree about Sounds Dangerous going and about getting the IJ ride and getting rid of the show. Also, the Star Wars film,(keep the ride) needs to be updated. Hmmmm...I'm detecting an MGM update needed :wizard:

We like the Mexico ride--it's IASW, but shorter :) It could use updates though. I personally would get rid of a lot of the pavilions in FW at Epcot and bring in stuff from ________(what's that game place called in DTD?)

Mine is an attraction not a ride. I think they need to do away with Drew Carey's Sounds Dangerous.
I don't think anyone will disagree with that one.

And get something new at the Beauty and the Beast ampitheater at MGM.
 
Honey I Shrunk the Audience should definately be replaced in my opionion. It has been there (and at Disneyland) long enough. I also agree with a previos poster about the Figment ride. Bring back the old one!!!
 
I vote Stitch off. But I like the Mexico and Small World rides because they are calm rides and cool when it's hot out, plus I'm getting too old for the Space Mtn. type rides.
 
Wish they would make the Norway ride longer. Everyone I take on there always says "It's over? Is that it?".

Poor Drew Carey. I think he's cute but his ride is not!
 
Ok, this is not quite in a park, but a park itself. Get rid of "DISNEYQUEST"! We finally went in it this past November, and I honestly can't see the attraction there. The only thing I enjoyed in there was the Cheese Cake Factory, and I don't have to pay anywhere else for the opportunity to purchase cheese cake. So Disneyquest has seen the last of my loafers. ;)
 
I would get rid of Mission Space at Epcot.....Stitch at MK and the dumb Movie Ride at MGM

Time to bring more thrill to the parks....more exciting and hard core rides for the older kids and younger adults.
 
"NONE" we go to Disney for just what it is and has. Even though we've seen it many a time, we like it just the way it is. Keep it all, its a family place from tots to oldsters, something for all.
 
I'm tough on Tomorrowland. My list is:
Stitch
The Timekeeper (I have never liked this attraction. Mostly because I don't like Robin Williams.)
The Tomorrowland Speedway (There has got to be a better way to use this space.)
Also:
Ariel's Grotto. Not so much because of what is but because of what it replaced. (Still bitter.)
 
Interesting question! And even more interesting..... are the attractions listed! ;)
Anyway....
I say we can do without...
Sounds Dangerous..... lame!!
Stitch...... even worse!
Tomorrowland Speedway at MK....... like a bad 1970's amusement park !
Honey I shrunk the Audience..... who cares?

What needs updates or "improvements"......
Great Movie Ride
Imagination..... return it to the original
Carousel or Progress.... needs over-haul... but keep it... too sentimental. :goodvibes
Indiana stunt show.... still better than the new Lights Motor Action.
Snow White and Peter Pan.... bring them into the 21st century!
 
At the MK: Get rid of Stitch (I loved Alien Encounter!)
Get rid of Tomorrow Land Speedway
We like the Country Bears and COP for the nostaglia!

At MGM: Update Startours and the Muppets 3=D
Get rid of Indiana Jones (been there too long)
We all like the Movie Ride bur it could use some updating. We all like Sound Effects too. Nice place to just sit and relax!

At Epcot Many of the countries in WS need updating. How about some of the food samplers offered year round like at the F&W Festival?
Also, we prefer the original Figment too! I like the Body Pavillion but it needs major work to update it!
