What WDW attraction is *so* bad...

[twinklebug]

What WDW attraction is so bad, you would you like to see Disney get rid of - *BUT* only AFTER you've had the chance to drag your kids through so they have a feel for what you had to endure? (even if you don't have kids)


Me, I'm still working up the courage to drag the kids into Tiki Room (even though it's under new management, I still shudder at the thought of chanting totem poles)

I just took the kids through the Swiss Family Tree House. They were saying "...and the point is?"

Carousel of Progress, I have no intention of taking my own kids in here ever. Maybe, if Disney would like to hold onto it another 25 years and my bones are too old for the newest thrill rides, I'll take my grandkids.

Totally agree on the Tiki room. In fact our last trip we did take our DD13 to it just so she could see how bad it is. It was the first time DH and I saw the new configuration of it and it is even worse than before.
I don't agree on COP though! I guess this is just one of those rides that people either love or hate. It is a must do for us. Even our DD loves it. I think with DH and I it is because it brings back memories of our long ago trips to WDW. It is a tradition I guess. We always get that song stuck in our minds the rest of the day after hearing it!

Universe of Energy, unless you really need a 45 minute sit down... no chance to sleep because dinosaurs are too noisy, had to reassure DD that dinosaurs were not going to be as scary as the ones in AK two days previously, and then listen to DD whining "when is this going to be over?"

Haven't inflicted Hall of Presidents on DD yet either

I like the Tiki Room (I am probably the only one on the board that does). I have never been into the Hall of the Presidents, nor do I ever plan to. BORING!!!!!!!

The Jungle Cruise is pretty bad IMO too!!!! We won't go back on that on our next trip.

 

[Sysyphus]

Aww... Noooo! Jungle Cruise is so bad it is really good

 

[alliesmommy]

I'd say COP, but its great for getting out of the heat for a few mins....The song drives me crazy though!!!!

Tiki Room is a big ol' waste of my time.

 

[DisneyGirlie]

The CoP is one of my favorite attractions ever!
Anyway as far as what I'd like to see gone I'd have to go with the Universe of Energy, the Swiss Family Robinson Tree House, and Stitch's Great Escape.

"Sounds Dangerous" - a total waste of time!!

 

[jjk]

ellens energy adventure its soo boring

 

[A_NY_Outlaw]

My vote goes to Indiana Jones @ HS. That in my opinion is a total waste of time...I didn't think there was anything remotely exciting about it. Disney could have done so much better with something else....anything else. I was entertained by Stitch than I was IJ.

think about the message and not the thrill value of the attraction -

we love everything about the world - my kids, my husband, and I, and my kids are 15, 17, & 2 years old - and from the beginning we've told them that Walt had a story to tell and used his attractions to tell them - swiss family robinson - the story - tiki room - the entertainment - cop - the story - even small world -

as everyone says - to each his own - but remember to think about the who, what, where, & why the attraction and park was made and maybe you'll not put down what other people enjoy and ask questions that are constructive

Can you tell me the answer to these questions regarding "Sounds Dangerous"?? Maybe I can better appreciate it - DH and I really just didn't understand the point.... Maybe we were just totally missing something

Well, now that you've bruised my feelings about the Tiki Room, which I feel is rich in Disney history & creativity (I'll admit the original was better), I'd have to nominate HISTA, which to me is just begging for replacement.

What's funny is, I never have & never would ride ToT or RnRC, yet I know enough about them to think they both get points for being creative & enjoyable for those who like that type of ride experience & would never suggest their removal just because they're not my cup of tea.

I totally agree...I pretty much like every ride at Disney. I just like looking at the theming. I love the Tiki room and the Jungle Cruise. I just like thing about how much technology has changed and how creative Walt was for his time.

As for Sounds Dangerous...I like it too. I like it becuase I get to seriously think about the roll that sounds plays in a movie. And how I can still see what is going on even without a picture. I think it is just something different. Like everything at disney...everything is uniquely its own. They has something that appeals to everyone at every age...something that alot of parks don't have.

 

[gooftroop22]

id have to say that stupid narnia thing at hollywood studios...by far the biggest waste of my time ever!

 

[phisigprincess]

The Universe of Energy is just painful for us. We gave it another shot when they updated it, but even that didn't help for us.

I also agree with the PP that HISTA is in dire need of a makeover.

 

[wildbill]

Its a Small World would get our vote.

Yes... I do know some people love this ride. But dolls that spin and a soundtrack that will follow you for days???

My 9 year old son said after riding it "ya know, if you really want world peace make all the presidents of all the countries of the world ride it till they decide to get along. Anyone breaks the truce they woulds have to go back and ride it again and again till they behaved. There would be no more wars out of complete fear of that ride"

[WDWRocksMySocks]

Stitch's Great Escape...I can't stand that ride! Only one of my four nephews found it entertaining.

I also agree about Sounds Dangerous. Yikes, that attraction is just unfortunate!

 

[DisneyMusician2]

Oh, gotta be Stitch. As lame as some other attractions are, this one really takes the cake.

Alien Encounter was at least a good time. Something about having Stitch burp on me just isn't magical!

 

[momof2dizkids]

I have to say Stitch, Spaceship Earth, Ellen's Energy Adventure,and the Boat in Liberty Square.
