POLL - Best new Walt Disney World attraction of 2015

[wdwmagic]

2015 didn't see a major E-Ticket opening, but there were a number of new attractions that opened during the year.

We want to know what your vote is for the best new attraction of 2015. We'll back in later polls for the best of the new restaurants and shops.

Definitely the new Star Wars fireworks Symphony in the Stars.

The Spelltacular for me. That sets a new standard for what the castle stage shows should be.

**As an aside, seeing all the new "attractions" that were added in 2015...I think it's a pretty depressing list. Looking forward to 2017 and beyond for (hopefully) some actual groundbreaking stuff.

 

[FigmentForver96]

Wow that's some list. Hmmm I loved the villain spectacular only because that is what stage shows should be.

 

[wdrive]

What a depressing list. Voted for the Spelltacular.

That's all that opened in 2015?

Ohhhhh boy.

Ohhhhh boy.

haha. Is it really that surprising to you? Probably will look similar for 2016 with the exception of the AK nighttime show. It is 2017 when this list could start to look good.

I was there in August and didn't experience any of these - I don't think most were there yet.

Well, we will be getting Frozen Ever After and Soarin Around the World along with RoL. I know both are replacements for other attractions, but I'm very intrigued by both of these.

 

[Animaniac93-98]

My vote was for Hocus Pocus. Is the current Star Wars fireworks different from the one they had for Last Tour to Endor?

ahh...yeah, forgot about the new Soarin'.

That is a pretty pathetic list...is this a joke?

Spelltacular and Star Wars fireworks were both great. I suspect the 2016 list will be far more compelling!

Sadly not

I agree - I voted for the fireworks since they weren't at a hard-ticket event.

 

[note2001]

I voted for Colortopia, simply because it was about time they added something to Innovations instead of taking away.

 

[The Empress Lilly]

Are you having a laugh?

It doesn't make financial sense to add a new E ticket every year, the landscape is littered with failed parks that took that approach. Americans as a whole want instant gratification these days. Well crafted experiences take time and money to put together.. Some even require physical infrastructure that has to be built front the ground up.

E-ticket? Maybe not. But a marketable headliner is certainly appealing each year. And WDW will go back to following this model with marketable headliners opening this year, 2017, 2018, 2019, (2020), (2021). Last two need to be budgeted of course, but something for the 50th is a sure bet. We already have four years of excitement on the way to WDW. This must be what it feels like to be a Universal fan!

Or will Uni soon be a failed park due to all this excessive investment?
