DHS:
Sound's Dangerous
That Narnia thing
The rest of the backlot tour (it always makes me sad when I ride it now. It used to be so much better)
The Playhouse theater
Little Mermaid
AK:
Those carnival games by Primeval Whirl

- Voyage of the Little Mermaid

- The Magic of Disney Animation (a caricature of its former self)
- Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show
ANIMAL KINGDOM
- Chester and Hester's Dino-Rama
By the way, these aren't necessarily attractions I think are bad. These are just the ones I don't feel emotionally attached to.
I was just wondering what did you actually like

I find it amazing how many people don't like some of the rides I like, and how many don't pick the same ones I pick to toss out! Doesn't everyone think exactly the same way I do?
My picks (which I'm sure are the RIGHT ones) are:
MK
Stitch
Astro Orbitor
Tom Sawyer Island
Epcot
Ellen (could be updated-I like the restful, cool, slow moving ride on a hot day-and 15 years ago it WAS relevent)
DHS
High School Musical stage shows. Enough already.
And for those of you who said "Sounds Dangerous"? Where would we all nap?
AK
Just keep Expedition Everest and Dinosaur. Move the animals to the vastness that is Epcot and take the whole rest of the park away. (Don't hurt me!)

I can speak for my whole family when I saw we would definitely not miss Haunted Mansion in MK. We tried it several years ago and didn't like it, but we decided to try it again on our last trip and see if we liked it any better. Nope. Wouldn't miss it if it were gone.
We didn't like ITTBAB at AK either. I hate bugs of any kind, but I tried it and couldn't get out soon enough. None of the rest of my crew enjoyed it enough to go back either.
25 days to go!

Not miss?
MK- Stitch. I'm a Stitch fan and they made him scary ......and boring.
EPCOT- Figment. Proving change is not change for the better. they destroyed the Imagination ride and no amount of fixing will make it better. Figment should not have to deal with this. One of my fav characters.
MGM-Sounds Dangerous. big old yawn. I can't remember the old show name(Monster Sound?)
but it was great. And those sound booths you could go in after, cool.

This was a bit hard:
MK - Stich for sure, Snow White's Scary ride...still scares me to this day.
Epcot - I will just say I LOVE Ellen's Universe of Energy!
MGM - Sounds Dangerous
***Muppets 3D and Star Tours are in need of some serious updates...Muppets is one of my all time favorites, but I think it could use some freshening up!
~Adam
Fauna: Oh...I just love happy endings.

Stitch has to go.
Snow white either needs to be made unscarey for kids or axe it.
Everything else at MK (including COP) are near and dear to my son who thoroughly enjoys each and every ride and attraction he goes on.
At Epcot....he loves universe of energy....to see the Dinosaurs. Hes hoping on out next trip he is tall enough for Mission Space.
I did Honey I shrunk the audience once and never again...I have rodent issues and the feel of their tails on my legs sends me to insanity.

[QUOTE=Toad;1714709][*]Judi Dench's patronizing narration for Spaceship Earth[/LIST]
- Bruce Broughton's Spaceship Earth muzak

I completely agree. I just saw the revamped SE for the first time and it actually made me angry. I thought there was absolutely no passion and no emotion to it, especially when the car turns and you see earth. Judy Dench made me feel like an idiot. (Sorry to rant, but I was really disappointed---they should change it back )
If we can dream it, then we can do it.

So it looks like the consensus is to ditch Stitch!!
Think the folks at Disney can figure it out?

MK - Stitch's Great Escape -- just not as fun/interesting as Alien Encounter was.
Enchanted Tiki Lounge (Under New Management) -- Grating voices, disjointed storyline.
Frontierland® Shootin' Arcade -- Wii/XBox/DS have made this obsolete. Plus, you have to pay for play?
EPCOT - Honey, I Shrunk The Audience -- Ditch the pre-show and update/revamp the 3D show. It's just too dated.
Innoventions -- Just update this attraction. It is no longer the "Road To Tomorrow," but more the "Road To Last Decade." Yes, it would be time consuming and costly, but it has fallen behind the curve. The company I work for could revamp the "Home Of Tomorrow" using a modification of their Workplace Solutions program that monitors all aspects of a building - HVAC, Security (fire, theft, etc.,) Utilities (electric, water, sewer, etc.,) etc.
DHS - Lights, Motors, Action! -- Loud, something to see 1x only (if that)
Sounds Dangerous -- Sounds LAME!!
High School Musical Parade/Show -- Does nothing more than cause traffic jams in the main thoroughfare through the park
AK - Fossil Fun Games -- Carnival games should be left at the carnival. Plus, you have to pay for play?
Primeval Whirl -- Again with the carnival theme! They could really do more with the CarnEvil theming.
TriceraTop Spin -- Another misplaced carnival ride.
DINOSAUR -- Just too herky-jerky of a ride. I really like the concept, just feel like I need to see my chiropractor afterward!!
Sorry so long. Just had to put my $0.02 in!!
