Stitch's Great Escape...

[GrtWtNorth]

Stitch is my little girl's favorite character and she would rather do this ride than most of the others just to "live in the moment" with Stitch. I think far too many people complain about this ride when there are others in the parks that are just plain silly and a waste of time IMO. I will vote for Stitch each and every time because he brings joy to my daughter, chili dog burps and all

I know about kids favorite characters. My DD loves Stitch too. The best Stitch attraction I've seen was at Tokyo Disneyland, where he's incorporated in The Enchanted Tiki Room. IMO, his addition here is much better than the annoying parrots added to the Enchanted Tiki Room in MK.

Here's a link to the entire 9-minute show, including subtitles. We saw it without the benefit of translation, but it was still lots of fun.

I don't know if I'll take DD on Stitch's Great Escape on our next trip. I don't think she's ready for it yet...

GrtWtNorth that looks great! Now I'm wondering if they sell a soundtrack for Tokyo Disney, I'd love to put the songs on my phone.

Regarding Stitch, I personally like it. The chili dog smell doesn't bother me, and it doesn't stick with me all day even though I'm a vegetarian and the smell of meat does actually make me nauseous from time to time. So I was a little concerned about that at first.

The first time we were on it there was this little kid behind us who was freaked out the entire time, so I'm not sure if I'd bring little kids on it or not. I guess it varies from child to child. (Is it obvious I don't have kids? ) I know my niece would definitely not like it, but when I was a kid I probably would have.

I will agree! I was disappointed when we went on it several years ago. Now, we just skip that ride altogether. That is a ride they should be updating.

Mission to Mars was much better......I like the future / paleo-future concept of Tomorrowland.

so was that what Autopia originally was or was supposed to be? looks like the cars are not on a guided track.

That was live footage from opening day at DL July 17, 1955....there were no tracks [and contributed to the mayhem on opening day!]. Remember, the multilane limited-access highways were something of the future then.

In all honesty, I'd skip this attraction entirely. I had read that prior to our last trip, but I ignored it. I soooo wish I hadn't ignored it. It's about 30 minutes (waiting time included) that I'll never ever get back. It was sooooooo not worth my time...

We thought it was the worst attraction we have ever been on anywhere. My DD5 was terrified through the whole thing. My other DD5 was just irriated :lol: One of them said, I don't even know why they call it a ride. It was horrible. Not the least bit entertaining.

This sums it up for my family...
