What WDW attraction is *so* bad...

[sherabby]

Stitch's Great Escape for me.

 

[Chim Chiminy]

IMO Stitch Encounter. They should have left it alone........we loved it before.

HISTA needs updating. As it is, I can't stand it.

Jungle Cruise, I guess it depends on the skipper you get, but we haven't found one that kept us interested yet.

 

[Rora]

The Swiss Family Robinson Tree House, The Jungle Cruise, and Stitch's Great Escape are my votes.. I think I will make my children go on these rides just so they know that we never need to do them again!!

Hate to burst anyone's bubbles, but they're never going to get rid of It's a Small World, Swiss Family Treehouse, or Carousel of Progress because they were some of Walt's Babies (especially IASM and CoP). To me, I'd be furious if they touched anything that Walt had a hand in because its HIS park. It's the sentimentalist in me that gets angry any time somebody insults IASM or CoP because they were so important to Walt, and I think that the company knows that and won't touch them, besides the needed refurbs.

I see HoP, CoP, the Tiki Room, IASW as "necessary evils". I'm not really fond of any of them, but seeing as how every time I've ever been to WDW my mom has made me ride them, so now the trip just doesn't feel complete without them . Even now as I'm writing this I can hear "It's a small world after all, it's a small world after all....." it's awful , but I guarantee this Dec I'll be sittng through all of these again . As for the Jungle Cruise I absolutely love it, it's one of my favorite rides. I hate Stitch's Great Escape, Alien Encounters was wonderful, and I was so upset when I heard it was gone (they should atleast move it to HS ). Anywho, that's just my 2 cents.

You're not bursting anyone's bubble here... this is all wishful thinking & we know it. What makes it funny is that these are the same attractions we do not want to see WDW do away with because we need our kids to experience them too

As for changing the rides Walt created I see no issues with improving them - in fact he was all for developing & utilizing technology and updating the old to the new. He never would have wanted to see anything developed by him or in his name labeled as "out of date". I believe if he were alive today he'd be embracing the "green" technologies now emerging and, at the very least, the air by the raceway would be a bit cleaner.

ETA: I've never been in the Stitch attraction *gasp* and I love the Jungle Cruise (my feelings are not bruised by those who think the space could be put to better use) - I will say it's best when the captain is really into it and fun, not just repeating their same jokes over and over and over. (Or like the last woman we got who complained about the boats in front of us having too much fun - and she was truly upset! Sounded like she needed to move on to working a new attraction)

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.

Christa112: You will be happy to know that my DH absolutely refuses to leav ethe Magic Kingdom unless he has been to the Tiki Room AT LEAST ONCE. I will go once with him--it's not that bad. But if he goes a second time, he's on his own.

Don't like Stitch at all and Jungle Cruise has gotten REALLY old.

 

[A_NY_Outlaw]

oh I forgot one on my last post- I think Star Tours is pretty darn lame in itself. Talk about a waste of time.

Actually I'm suprised that no one has included Small World in their list.....but then again the post is young.

 

[stitch63]

Spaceship Earth seemed really boring the last time we were there. Hopefully the changes will help keep me awake! I hope the Star Tours ride will eventually get updated too. The only thing that made the ride fun was watching my seven year old ride it for the first time. I wish they would quit talking about updating it and actually do it!

I vote for the Lunching Pad in Tomorrowland. I sat there and nothing happened. Just people all around me eating turkey legs. You're not even supposed to bring food on a ride. They...

What...? Really...? Not a ride?...........What do you mean it's a restaurant?

Um........Great news folks. You can buy Turkey Legs in Tomorrowland. I can't wait to go back there.

 

[BriarRosie]

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!

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!

Stitch's Great Escape for me.

I concur. Hands down, the one attraction I warn people away from. And sometimes they just don't listen, only to tell me later: "You were right about Stitch. Bleh."

Beware the Chilidog. It's more obnoxious than the skunk stench from Figment Took Over Your Imagination.

I know everyone seems to love it BUT I can't STAND the haunted mansion! It scares the bejeesus out of me. I will go on any rollercoaster but I hate ghost trains with a passion. My poor Mum has to go on it alone if she wants to. I have been once and came off in tears! I was mortified with all these little kids going past and laughing at me!!!

 

[splashmtrider]

I would say stitches great escape, Alein encounter was so much better and jungle cruise and journey threw imagination, I was SOOO bored on them.
I went from to on them

 

[Abharmagic]

Not a Carousel of Progress fan- but some people love it..... also I don't like Pooh's Ride DD was very unimpressed and she was excited to go on it.

 

[Chellymouse]

The COP,Sounds Dangerous, Narnia, TTA and the Ellen thing over at Epcot are past retirement. DH always threatens me with one of the above if I'm "misbehaving" Then I make him ride POTC 5 times in a row!
I would hope that with the announcement of the new rides at that park across I4 and the addition of the Harry Potter, that WDW will stay true to form and blow them out of the water! I would rather see the investment in newer and updated things (or for a Space Mt upgrade) than maintenance on the boring stuff that, have you ever noticed...there's never a wait?? there's a reason for that!

There were serious plans to get ride of CoP, but people kept freaking out so they haven't gone through with it yet. Its a really large space, and its closed a lot during the slow season, so I don't see that staying around a lot longer.

Jungle cruise is one of my favorite rides when I get a cool skipper. I have been lucky the last few times, and I think its fun when I am with a big group of people. Its just a silly ride. Its not interesting when they just stick to the script, but there are not a lot of rides left that there is human interaction like that. They even seem to be phasing it out of the Haunted Mansion. I wish I was a jungle cruise skipper.

I don't like stich, and I definitely don't like stichs great escape.

I don't really dislike any rides or attractions. Some we do seldom like The Swiss Family Robinson Tree House and Stitch. I hadn't been on Stitch since its preview but I have to admit we recently went on it again. It didn't see as bad but I certainly won't be rushing to go on it again anytime soon.
I like Tiki room and the Jungle Cruise I love the corney jokes. Once in a great while we visit the Hall of Presidents maybe for a comfortable cool place to rest lol. My dd and I recently went on the river boat while dh was in the smoking area it wasn't crowded and we just sat in the bow of the lower level and enjoyed a break.
On really crowded days we do the less exciting attractions so we don't stand in a line forever. It's easy for us because we have the passes and can always go back and do Splash MT and BT and SM another day.

 

[thegrimdwarf]

Is Country Bear Jamboree gone? Because if it's still there, I can't believe it's not already been mentioned. I haven't been in a while, though.

Well when you listen to the Carousel of Progress song over and over for about 20 min. you want to take an ax and tear it down. COP broke down and we couldn't leave and we sat through "There's a great big beautiful tomorrow, shining at the end of everyday. There's a great big beautiful tomorrow and tomorrow is just a dream away. A man has dream and that's the start. He follows his dream with mind and heart. And when it becomes a reality, it's a dream come true for you and me." "There's a ..."
