We now return you to your Disney discussion.
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Willing to wait on line for 30 minutes but not worth it for alonger wait.
Space Mountain: Lame roller coaster. Has not been on that ride for 30 years.
Splash Mountain. Just another log flume ride. Never been on it.
Peter Pan’s Flight: Most times avoided it as way too long lines.
Mad Tea Party: A dime a dozen spinning around in a compartment ride.
Underrated
Star Tours: Top 2 best rides at Hollywood Studios. This is from a fan of the franchise.
Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room: Ranked 36 out of 50!!! This is one of the attractions that separated Disney from other amusement parks.
Mission: SPACE. This is for me #1 at Epcot. I never experienced so many G's in my life as on that ride.
Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin: For me an awesome shoot em up ride.
It’s A Small World: Once again an iconic ride that separates Disney from other amusement parks. One cannot get that song out of your head after being on that ride.
The top two winners were: 1) Eastern Airlines If Man Had Wings, and 2) WEDWAY People Mover.

There are two types of people..... Those who love its a small world and those who hate it.
Saving
Spaceship Earth - witnessed a woman die there. The EMTs tried to act like she was ok for the benefit of the tourists. Not exactly the happiest place on earth.
Buzz Lightyear - like it but there’s a line.
Dinosaur - ride too jerky so not fun.
It’s a Small World - PLEASE do away with this!
Peter Pan - like it and the lines are fine imo.
Haunted Mansion - like the ride part but long lines.
Tower of Terror - boring and ridiculously long lines for not much excitement.
Space Mountain - favorite! Late at night there are no lines so you can ride, run around and immediately ride again and again and again.
Toad’s Wild Ride - loved it but heard they closed it. Too bad.
When I was very young (grade school, junior high) I loved going on carnival rides. By the time I was old enough to run my own life, they lost their appeal.
At this point in my life, I fail to understand what the attraction is, especially for adults. You are strapping yourself in and allowing yourself to be moved around at the mercy of someone else for no discernible purpose. I would much rather ride a bike, swim, run, walk, or just about anything else. If you like g forces, drive a car fast, skydive, fly a plane. If I want to be terrorized, I just look at pictures of Hitlery, 0vomit, or Pelosi.
Letting someone else control your body seems like such a non-conservative thing to do.
Easy. Don’t go. Why support the enemy?
My six year old son and I went to Disney and we were nearly first through the gate. The very first ride he wanted to go on was the Buzz Lightyear Space Rangers ride. NO ONE ELSE chose that to ride first as the line is always very short through the day.
Waiting for us as we got on the ride was a Disney employee that gave us two “Fast Pass” passes. That gave us the chance to do Fast Pass on every single ride that offered it, all day long. Never knew why we got chosen for that.
Amazing opportunity.
First of all, I prefer Disneyland to Walt Disney World. The ones I remember after ten years are the Teacups (hey - I was with a six year old), It’s a Small World which was dressed up for Christmas. I guess I expected to hate it but I did not.... and Pirates of the Caribbean. I don’t like getting wet and I don’t like roller coasters so that limited my enjoyment of some of them. I think we did Pirates three or four times. I would have gone back to The Nightmare before Christmas but it scared the granddaughter too much. And I loved Sea World but now that they have nixed Shamu maybe not so much.
