Top 5 best and worst attractions

Best:

1. It's a Small World (of course!)
2. Haunted Mansion
3. Pirates of the Caribbean
4. Carousel of Progress (if that counts, since it's no longer always open!)
4. (If CoP doesn't count) The Great Movie Ride
5. Fantasmic

Honorable Mention to the Country Bear Jamboree, the Hall of Presidents, The American Adventure Show, and Muppetvision 3D!

Worst:

1. Timekeeper (though that might not count, either, since it's not always open)
1. Snow White's Scary Adventures
2. It's Tough to Be A Bug
3. Swiss Family Robinson Tree House
4. Body Wars
5. Innoventions
 
BEST:

1-Tower of Terror-best themed ride from beginning to end...not too sickening with up and down the only motions plus that great moment when the elevators moves horizontally- that the DCA version won't have that part is further proof of how poorly Disney understands how to put on the show anymore.

2-Buzz Lightyear- great idea, could have been done better, sure, and it needs some upkeep very soon, but a delightful theme well executed.

3-Listen to the Land-the first thing I ever did at EPCOT and has a special place in my heart. Started out so lame with that song and the roots system lit up that I thought, uh oh is this what the whole place is going to be like, and then it became this fascinating look at how things grow....I was won over right there.

4-Horizons- loved the idea of the future as seen in the past, the giant IMAX parts, the choose your ending, etc...I never understood why others did not like it.

5-Splash Mountain-Great job of taking an old ride and making it themed.

Since #4 is no more- I get to name Muppets 4D as my runner up.

WORST:
-Astro-orbiters-from the horrible line to the lame ride, a loser all the way.
-All character meet/greets-cheap, lame- to all who frequent these happy places I point my finger and say YOU ARE THE REASON FOR THE END OF EE, FOR THE GENERAL CHEAPENING OF THE PARKS, THANKS TO YOUR ACCEPTING THE THRILL OF A FOAM HEADED TEEN AS SOMETHING SPECIAL, ALL OF US NOW SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES!
-Any circle 3 D movie where you have to STAND UP throughout- Ugh! Stand in line, walk, and now we have to stand up and be made queasy?
Swiss Family Tree House- stand in line and/or at least walk up lots of steps-to see a set- no thanks.
Country Bears- lame , boring - if this feature film based on these guys is a hit-I will point my finger at those who made it so and say YOU ARE THE REASON THAT A CIVILIZATION IS DYING!

King Triton
 
Best:

#1 Splash Mountain. The best ride in the universe!
#2 Tower of Terror
#3 Haunted Mansion
#4 Indiana Jones at DL
#5 Space Mountain


Worst.

#1 Kali River Rapids (My most disappointing Disney ride ever)
#2 Body Wars
#3 All of the Paradise Pier attractions except for California Screaming.
#4 JIYI (What the heck were they thinking?)
#5 The China Epcot Movie. (How many times can I fall asleep standing up?)

You know what's cool? I could go on and on with the "Best" list, and have to really think for the "worst list".
 


Here are my top 4:
1. Monorail
2. Splash Mountain
3. Tower of Terror
4. Pirates of the Carribean

There's nothing like a ride on the monorail to make me feel like I'm at WDW!

E-ticket rides that bother me:
Hmm. gotta think some more about this.
 
The Best:
Haunted Mansion
Pirates of the Caribbean
Indiana Jones at Disneyland
Hunchback Show at MGM
Cranium Command

The Worst:
Swiss Family Tree House
Speedway
Journey Into Your Imagination
Living Seas
Innoventions at Disneyland
 
Five Winners
1. Haunted Mansion - Can never get tired of it. An example of Disney as its creative best.
2. Pirates of the Carribean - Again, I can never get tired of it. As in Haunted Mansion, the "ride" starts when you first stand in line until you're well outside the building.
3. Fantasmic - Ok, not a ride, but a great show.
4. Alien Encounter - What a great use of technology. Found it very exciting.
5. The Great Movie Ride - It needs updating (maybe they could update rooms as they do with Spaceship Earth), but still a great ride -- and actually follows the movie theme of the park!

Other favorites: Spaceship Earth, Dinosaur, Safari Ride, American Adventure, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain

Five Losers
1. Muppets 3-D: The "D" must stand for "disappointing." Whoa, is this a waste of time or what? Has anyone -- especially those at Disney -- visited the Terminator ride at Universal? Learn from the competition, boys...
2. Rio del Tiempo: Should be called "River of Bad Travel Ads For Mexico."
3. Pop Century: Ok, so not a ride, but I had to mention it. Unfortunately, the cheap, tacky resort will probably do well...all fear for our society.
4. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: I liked the ride as a kid, but it makes it into my top five loser list because it's just wasted space right now. You can't tell me that one Imagineer couldn't come up with a great idea, or that Disney doesn't have a few million sitting around (just take a percentage of how much I spent on food that last time I went should just about cover it), to build something new to fill the space.
5. Dino-land: Maybe they should have made it part of Pop Century. Each cost about $1.75 to design and build.

Tower of Terror
Space Mountain
Splash Mountain
Rock-n-Roller Coaster
Alien Encounter

(also among the best...It's Tough To Be A Bug, Dinosaur, Haunted Mansion, Mad Hatter's Tea Party, Buzz)
