What attraction has the most Disney "Magic"?

[JPKnapp]

Disney "Magic"... the "Wow" factor that no one else seems to have. It's details, the technology, innovation, decoration, or that you can experience something 100 times and still find something new.

What attraction to you has the most Disney "Magic"?

Haunted Mansion. Forty-six years old and still going strong (the attraction - not me. I mean, I am still going strong but . . . . oh never mind).

Haunted Mansion-notice something new every time.

Pirates and Haunted Mansion ... More Pirates for me as that's the only ride i remember when i was 5 years old ..ofc back then that drop felt like splash mountain lol

 

[disBEAST]

There sure are a ton of answers to this. I'll nominate Splash Mountain.

Most guests are drawn by the weenie appeal of the large drop and the screams, but once they board the ride and experience the detailed dark ride portion that's where the magic really happens. There's tons of dialogue and music to hear, and it's impossible to hear everything on one ride through (unless you get stuck at the bottom of the big drop or at unloading), which is a neat trick Disney Imagineers use to make multiple ride throughs unique. Add in the fourth wall humour of the vultures at the base of the big drop ("Time to be turning around... if only you could!") and it really beats people's expectations when they think it's just a log ride with a big drop.

Pirates and Splash Mountain. I love going with newbies and NOT telling them what's inside Splash Mountain. They all say the same thing.....they all thought it was just going to be an up and down splash down ride. They have NO IDEA what's inside. And I remember thinking the SAME thing when I rode it for the first time 20 years ago.

I cannot pick just one! There are so many that make me feel that way. Haunted Mansion and Splash Mountain definitely. Tower of Terror is another big one that comes to mind.

I've only been posting on these forums for a few days but I think half my posts are about Splash Mountain so far lol. I'm a coaster enthusiast who has been on some of the best coasters on the planet, but Splash remains my favorite ride anywhere. It is just perfect and to me is the perfect representation of "the happiest place on earth".

We love the Castle (having dinner in it). It feels like in the middle of it all.

Another one is Carousel of Progress. It may sound odd, but we love this ride. The song is very calm and positive and we feel good thinking about it.
Every time we visit MK (every couple years), DD takes a pic in front of it to mark her own growth and progress.

I agree, regarding Carousel of Progress - even after getting stuck on it last time. It's all about the song.

However, the attraction that makes me feel like an awed little kid and a weepy grownup all at once is Celebrate the Magic. It's the Disneyest Disney thing ever!

Pirates
Haunted Mansion
and Peter Pan

I was going to add COP to the list as well. And, I know it sounds hokey, but Hall of Presidents is up there, too.

Small World at MK and Spaceship Earth at Epcot. I won't feel like I've even been to WDW if I don't ride those two.

Newer shows and attractions: Fantasmic, Mickey's Philharmagic, Toy Story Midway Mania!

Splash Mountain.

I didn't go to Disney until I was 34. I thought it was just a log flume ride. I was in awe and "got" Disney and what it was all about.

 

[galaxygirl76]

I'd like to nominate the parades as well.
