Just pitched something like this for DHS in the Imagineering game on the other side of the forum, but it would suit DL even better!
I really hope GFT does become a Coco Attraction. It is actually more authentically Mexican.
I'd say Go Coaster, Space Mountain, Big Thunder, Matterhorn.
It won't ever happen. The idea has been floated but it was determined the pavilion just couldn't handle that amount of foot traffic.
Agreed, as the dark adds an extra element of thrill that Thunder doesn’t have.
Thunder has a ton of head choppers and helixes. Space I always found pretty tame as a kid. Its always been my least favourite mountain.
Everyone's perspective is different I guess because I always found Thunder to be tame. But I say that as someone who's first coaster was an Arrow with a double loop and a triple corkscrew at age 7. So a runaway minetrain is going to be tame in comparison.
Sometimes it’s not about just thrills, every Disneyland Resort coaster is tame by enthusiast standards, it’s akin to asking who the tallest dwarf is. If you are talking about quality and a complete experience however, I personally feel Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is the best Disney Coaster, especially if you ride it at night.
No doubt its not just about thrills, and quality and complete experience does go a long way. But since the conversation (or at least I thought it was) was about ranking Disneyland coasters from starter to most thrilling within the Park I would put Thunder on the lower tier of "thrills" just above Go Coaster.
Most people find what they can't see to be much scarier than head choppers and helixes.
Oh, I thought we were talking about the coaster and the intensity of the coaster. Sure, if you are afraid of the dark, then sure, I guess Space would seem more intense than Big Thunder or Matterhorn. It always reminds me of the Scrambler they had at Knotts that was enclosed with a disco ball; some lateral forces, spinning lights, and no real drops or perceived height.
That's what LLs are for - some exec
