    If You Had Wings...or Buzz Lightyear?

    Stitch's Great Escape...ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter...or Mission to Mars?

    Mission: Space...or Horizons? - I know many have VERY sentimental attachments to Horizon's but I've never experienced it and I LOVED Mission: Space last visit.

    World of Motion...or Test Track?

    Journey Into Your Imagination (the original ride)...or Journey Into Imagination with Figment? - Based on what I here... Version One far exceeds the current one.

    El Rio del Tiempo...or Grande' Fiesta Tour?

    Main Street Electrical Parade...or SpectroMagic? - Tough call!? MSEP was our first at DL; but I did really like SpectroMagic too; I like the white/colour light contrast

    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea....or Pooh's 100 Acre Wood Playground?

    The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh...or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride?

    Wishes...or Fantasy in the Sky?

    Who Wants to be a Millionaire?....or Toy Story Mania?

    Tapestry or Nations....or Tapestry of Dreams?

    Spaceship Earth: Walter Cronkite, Jeremy Irons, or Judy Dench? - Unlike most; I don't mind it currently.

    Living Seas...or The Seas with Nemo and Friends? - Hmmmm... did not love the Nemo update; could see how the original seemed dated/generic though, too

    Finding Nemo: The Musical...or Tarzan Rocks? - We caught Nemo on a VERY RAINY exhausted day; maybe that was the issue; but I loved Tarzan Rocks and all the stunts/music.

    Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights: Residential Street Backlot....or Avenue of the Americas? - Haven't experienced Lights

    Monorail....or Ferry Boat? - although we love getting in Ferry rides, too.

    Walt Disney Story....or Exposition Hall/Town Square Theater? - We got a sneak peak this summer! =)

    Stitch's Great Escape...ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter...or Mission to Mars? Mission to Mars was great fun-- I miss early 1990s Tomorrowland.

    Mission: Space...or Horizons?
    Horizons

    World of Motion...or Test Track?
    This is one case where I actually prefer the replacement. Test Track is always enjoyable, and I love the final run through the track outside.

    Journey Into Your Imagination (the original ride)...or Journey Into Imagination with Figment? The original JII
    El Rio del Tiempo...or Grande' Fiesta Tour? I still can't believe they replaced the original with some cartoon characters from the 1940s whom nobody remembers.

    Main Street Electrical Parade...or SpectroMagic? Not a fan of parades, but the MSEP

    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea....or Pooh's 100 Acre Wood Playground? Neither.

    The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh...or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride? Give me Mr. Toad

    Wishes...or Fantasy in the Sky? Wishes!

    Who Wants to be a Millionaire?....or Toy Story Mania? Never been on either

    Tapestry or Nations....or Tapestry of Dreams? Tapestry of Nations

    Spaceship Earth: Walter Cronkite, Jeremy Irons, or Judy Dench? Mr. Irons!! He adds a drama to the ride that the genial Cronkite wasn't able to get.

    Living Seas...or The Seas with Nemo and Friends? Original Living Seas.

    Finding Nemo: The Musical...or Tarzan Rocks? Tarzan Rocks was probably the worst stage show I ever saw at Disney World, so Nemo wins by a mile.

    Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights: Residential Street Backlot....or Avenue of the Americas? Unfamiliar with all of them.

    Monorail....or Ferry Boat?

    Please stand clear of the doors!

    Walt Disney Story....or Exposition Hall/Town Square Theater? This space has, I fear, never been used well.

    This looks like fun! Here's my choices:

    If You Had Wings...or Buzz Lightyear?
    Never saw the former, but I really like Buzz.

    Stitch's Great Escape...ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter...or Mission to Mars?
    Funny thing is that I like Stitch, but AE was better.

    Mission: Space...or Horizons? If it was just Orange, I wouldn't have picked it, but now that they have the Green version, I like Mission:Space.

    World of Motion...or Test Track? Love Test Track!

    Journey Into Your Imagination (the original ride)...or Journey Into Imagination with Figment? Never even saw the original, but it had to be better.

    El Rio del Tiempo...or Grande' Fiesta Tour? Tough choice. I mis the old song and narrator...but the new version is cool too.

    Main Street Electrical Parade...or SpectroMagic? I've seen both and I still prefer MSEP.

    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea....or Pooh's 100 Acre Wood Playground? Never saw 20K, but it had to be better than that parent trap.

    The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh...or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride? Sorry Mr. Toad.

    Wishes...or Fantasy in the Sky? It's all the same to me, but I went with Wishes by a nose.

    Who Wants to be a Millionaire?....or Toy Story Mania? I haven't seen the latter, but the former was only so-so.If TSM is even half as good as the hype...

    Tapestry or Nations....or Tapestry of Dreams?

    Spaceship Earth: Walter Cronkite, Jeremy Irons, or Judy Dench?

    Living Seas...or The Seas with Nemo and Friends? Mine, mine, mine!

    Finding Nemo: The Musical...or Tarzan Rocks? Haven't seen either, but I'd rather see the former.

    Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights: Residential Street Backlot....or Avenue of the Americas? Dunno...

    Monorail....or Ferry Boat?

    Walt Disney Story....or Exposition Hall/Town Square Theater? Dunno...

    Great idea for a topic!

    If You Had Wings...or Buzz Lightyear?
    If You Had Wings- I've never liked Buzz Lightyear, as it has always come across to me as a cheap (relatively speaking) video game, and I always find it too difficult to find which red dot is mine. If You Had Wings was cheesy, but it was nice and relaxing. I would pick Dreamflight over both of them, though.

    Stitch's Great Escape...ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter...or Mission to Mars?
    Alien Encounter- It was edgy, which is something that the Magic Kingdom lacks, and it had a great sense of dark humor. Mission to Mars was okay for its time, but Stitch is just plain revolting.

    Mission: Space...or Horizons?
    Horizons- I am actually a big fan of Mission: Space. It's a shame it didn't replace something besides Horizons. Horizons was top-notch, unique, and full of Disney magic. I still say it's one of the best attractions that WDW has ever had.


    World of Motion...or Test Track?
    World of Motion- I've never been very impressed with Test Track. It's decent, but I feel that only about half of the ride is good. World of Motion was a little goofy, but it was fun (to be free).

    Journey Into Your Imagination (the original ride)...or Journey Into Imagination with Figment?Original Journey Into Imagination- It's as simple as this, they replaced a wonderfully imaginative attraction with a pathetic, boring waste of space.

    El Rio del Tiempo...or Grande' Fiesta Tour?
    El Rio del Tiempo- Truthfully, I've never cared for either attraction, but the old song was so catchy and fun that I'd rather have it back.

    Main Street Electrical Parade...or SpectroMagic?
    Spectro Magic- It's a tough call. Main Street Electrical Parade is exciting, but I have to give the edge to Spectro Magic because it has more of a Disney dreamlike feeling that appeals to me and fits in well with the idea of WDW. Plus, I think the lighting is much better on Spectro Magic. Besides, you didn't really think I would pick against my user name, did you?

    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea....or Pooh's 100 Acre Wood Playground? 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea- No need to explain. It's a pretty good attraction vs. a playground

    The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh...or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride?
    Mr. Toad's Wild Ride- I must admit that the Pooh attraction has grown on me over the years, but Mr. Toad's was so unique with its two different sides setup. It was two different experiences in one attraction.

    Wishes...or Fantasy in the Sky?
    Wishes- It's not even close. Fantasy in the Sky was a solid show, but Wishes takes it to a whole new level. All of the aspects of Wishes come together with such precision that it is a thing of beauty to behold.

    Who Wants to be a Millionaire?....or Toy Story Mania?
    Who Wants to be a Millionaire?- I know Toy Story Mania is extremely popular and I enjoy it a lot, but hear me out on this one. Millionaire holds a very special memory for me. I tried to make it into the hot seat a few times over the years and got close several times, but I had never made it. May 2005 was my first trip to WDW with my then girlfriend (now wife). She told me that she had a feeling that I would make it to the hot seat while we were waiting in the queue. I didn't win the fastest finger, but I was at the top of the audience leader board when the contestant in the hot seat missed a question, so I finally made it into the hot seat! I was thrilled that I got to share that moment with my wife and the other members of my family that were there. It's truly one of the best moments I've ever had at WDW.

    Tapestry or Nations....or Tapestry of Dreams?
    Either- I liked both of them about the same. I really wish one or the other were still running.

    Spaceship Earth: Walter Cronkite, Jeremy Irons, or Judy Dench?
    Jeremy Irons- I think the Judi Dench and the Walter Cronkite narrations are good, but the Jeremy Irons narration is among the best audio experiences that Disney has ever created. Not only was his delivery flawless, but the writing was superb, too.

    Living Seas...or The Seas with Nemo and Friends?
    The Seas with Nemo and Friends- I believe that The Living Seas needed to be freshened up and the Nemo additions were a good choice. I don't care much for the ride, but Turtle Talk is great, especially since the little kids can interact with him.

    Finding Nemo: The Musical...or Tarzan Rocks?
    Finding Nemo: The Musical- I always thought Tarzan Rocks was too loud and obnoxious (the stunts were neat, though). The Nemo Musical has a Broadway feel to it with fantastic songs and colorful sets. I tend to sing the songs from the show to myself on a regular basis.

    Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights: Residential Street Backlot....or Avenue of the Americas? Both- I can't choose. The Residential Street gave it a more appropriate feeling considering that the lights were originally in a suburban neighborhood in Arkansas, but Disney has done an excellent job of putting the lights in a big city landscape along with adding the "dancing," which is a nice touch.

    Monorail....or Ferry Boat?
    Monorail- The Monorail is quintessential Disney. It's both transportation and an attraction and that can't be said for very many things.

    Walt Disney Story....or Exposition Hall/Town Square Theater?
    Exposition Hall/Town Square Theater- I definitely think that Walt's story should be told to WDW guests, but that is being fulfilled quite well at One Man's Dream, so there is no need for the Walt Disney Story anymore.

    I had to realy think on a couple of these and try to put entertainment value ahead of nostalgia.That being said my choices are:


    Buzz Lightyear. I loved If you Had Wings, but I think Buzz is the more fun ride.

    ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter. Even though I didn't actually care for it much it was better than MTM and MUCH MUCH better than Stitch. If I went for nostalgia, I would have picked MTM...

    Horizons. MS is....ok......but there's not much story or imaginiation there.

    World of Motion. Read the above.

    Journey Into Your Imagination. The original had everything going for it. Now...well, it's just sad.

    Grande' Fiesta Tour. Weirdly enough, I like the re-do. I think the original was more in keeping with the idea of the World Showcase, but the new one at least nods to those ideas, while making it a bit more entertaining.

    Main Street Electrical Parade. Although having seen it agin on our last trip it didn't seem quite as good.

    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. I find this question slightly insulting. Enough said.

    The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh AND Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. I like both and I feel they should both be there. After all, they are in DL.

    Fantasy in the Sky. I liked the way it pulled the themes of the different land into it. Wishes is ok, but it trys a little too hard at times...

    Toy Story Mania. I'll take a ride over a show (even an interactive one) any day!

    Tapestry.... Don't really care.

    Spaceship Earth: Walter Cronkite. The first and the ultimate. His reassuring voice made you think that anything actually could happen in the future.

    Living Seas. Ok, I thought the original was a little dull, but the re-do is so half hearted, I think they should have just left it alone.

    Finding Nemo: The Musical. Mainly because I've never been a big Tarzan fan.

    Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights: Residential Street Backlot. It seems to fit much better here.

    Monorail. Gotta love the rail!

    Walt Disney Story. I'm not even sure what its supposed to be now.

    Also, a vote for Monster Sound Show over Sounds Stupid, er I mean "Dangerous."

    and Superstar TV over American Idol

    Mission: Space...or Horizons? --- Never had the chance to experience Horizons

    World of Motion...or Test Track? --- Never had the chance to experience WoM

    Journey Into Your Imagination (the original ride)...or Journey Into Imagination with Figment? --- Gotta be better than the current version, even though I do think the current version is a cute "one and done" attraction.

    El Rio del Tiempo...or Grande' Fiesta Tour? --- Either/or on these - they both have/had their good points and bad...Tossup

    Main Street Electrical Parade...or SpectroMagic? --- BOTH!! I like the theme of Spectro better, but the length of MSEP makes it nice

    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea....or Pooh's 100 Acre Wood Playground? --- Never had the chance to experience 20K, but would think that it would be much more enjoyable - for the post-10 year old crowd

    The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh...or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride? --- Never had the chance to experience MTWR

    Wishes...or Fantasy in the Sky? --- Never had the chance to experience FitS, but LOVE Wishes, so it wins anyway!

    Who Wants to be a Millionaire?....or Toy Story Mania? --- BOTH! Why couldn't they have shifted WWtbaM to the open soundstage?

    Tapestry or Nations....or Tapestry of Dreams? --- Never had the chance to experience either of these!

    Spaceship Earth: Walter Cronkite, Jeremy Irons, or Judy Dench? -- Never got to hear Cronkite's version and Dame Judy Dench's version is a bit too 'preachy'

    Living Seas...or The Seas with Nemo and Friends? --- Either/or....these are/were both pretty 'blah'

    Finding Nemo: The Musical...or Tarzan Rocks? --- BOTH!!! Find someplace to bring Tarzan Rocks back!

    Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights: Residential Street Backlot....or Avenue of the Americas? --- This isn't really fair! Osborne Lights by a mile, BUT the light show couldn't have been brought in without the AotA being there, right?

    Monorail....or Ferry Boat? --- Tossup here, although Ferry would win by a nose - don't care for the scent of the monorail

    Walt Disney Story....or Exposition Hall/Town Square Theater? --- Pretty much a tossup here as well. Neither are 'must see' attractions for us (I know -- have us drawn and quartered for blasphemy!! LOL)

    A lot of these I missed or only got minimal exposure to due to only recently getting the WDW "BUG!"

    OK here is my two cents worth:


    Quote Originally Posted by Main Street Jim View Post

    Wings, definitely

    Stitch's Great Escape...ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter...or Mission to Mars?

    Really never cared for any of these

    Mission: Space...or Horizons?

    Horizons was one of my faves of the originals.
    World of Motion...or Test Track?

    World of Motion, my #2 fave.

    Journey Into Your Imagination (the original ride)...or Journey Into Imagination with Figment?

    Original, hands down.

    El Rio del Tiempo...or Grande' Fiesta Tour?

    Rio was nice, new version dumbed down.

    Seen both, prefer Spectro.

    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea....or Pooh's 100 Acre Wood Playground?

    No preference here.

    The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh...or Mr. Toad's Wild Ride?

    Not a fan of either.

    Never saw them.
    Spaceship Earth: Walter Cronkite, Jeremy Irons, or Judy Dench?

    Living Seas...or The Seas with Nemo and Friends?

    Living Seas, Nemo is a joke.

    Finding Nemo: The Musical...or Tarzan Rocks?

    Never seen.

    Osbourne Family Spectacle of Lights: Residential Street Backlot....or Avenue of the Americas?

    Backlot
