Worst Walt Disney World Attraction

Journey has no business being up here. Yea, it’s worse than the original, but it’s still a fun and entertaining ride when viewed as it’s own entity, rather than as a continuation of its predecessor. As for the rest of the list, Speedway for sure is the worst. Long line, noisey cars, no thematic fitting with tomorrowland, gaseous fumes, the track system restricting how fast/where you can go, spine breaking bumps from other guests, yea, rip it down already. Or, at the very least, turn it into autopia.
Ever since I went on Pirates of the Caribbean in Disneyland California and Disneyland Paris, Pirates here truly is unbearable for me.

I picked other, the Swiss family treehouse!
I am surprised mission space is on the list? That's a great attraction, I mean it's no Horizons, but it's great! I love the more intense orange team! Are so many people turned off my the spinning?
Another great thing is they changed the non spin to a earth orbit, now there are TWO different attractions in one. Great!

To the average guest, it’s very boring.

That's the one I picked. In fact, I'm kinda surprised that it's not the runaway leader. Imagination is the only attraction in any Disney parks that makes me angry when I ride - it's such a waste when you think of what could have been if they'd had a little bigger budget and a lot more . . . well, imagination!

That is how I feel about Soarin'. It went from #1 to hard pass...

Poll Fail. No option for "Frozen."
Or Space Mountain. Don't get me wrong, conceptually I love it. Loved it when I was younger. There are times I still love it now.
But I find myself immediately visiting a chiropractor after riding it - far too often these days. And on those days I curse it.
I came close but almost nobody outside of this forum dislikes it and the only reason I’ve ever heard anyone offer up as to why it’s terrible is “Maelstrom was better”

Yes, it can which is why I don't understand why we get these lists. When we go public about an attraction being the "worse" we are sending a message, to people that have never been, saying that they should not go to it. The reality is that everyone is different. There may be things that I don't like, but, that doesn't mean that others don't love it. To accidentally commit an attraction to the trash heap, does all of us a disservice. Everyone complained about Stitch's Great Escape. I kind of enjoyed it, I found it fun. Now it's gone. Anybody have any idea what is being done in that theater? I haven't heard anything at all. I am a bit sensitive about CoP because knowing the history of it, I know how many times Disney has wanted to level it. It is a classic and one of the last things the Walt had a hand in creating. Taking it out would be a terrible thing. It needs to stay, as is, as a tribute to the imagination of Walt. Not just the show, but, also the theater itself. We are way to quick to demolish our history.
I apologize for the over reaction, just a sore spot on an old body.

I’ve been to the future, and the ride is worse than you can imagine.

Leave my Country Bears alone! It was the park's first big hit attraction and you can suck on that fact!

Unbearable is a strong word. I agree WDW has the worst version, but it’s still a great ride. I guess the biggest negatives are it just has one drop instead of two, and it doesn’t go through the bayou scene at the beginning... but the queue is far better than the one in Disneyland.

Also, I voted Primeval Whirl. Dino-Land is just the worst individual land at Disney World. I feel like all the others on this list have at least one redeeming quality. For instance, my 5-year-old daughter thinks it’s pretty cool to drive her own car on the Speedway. That alone makes it alright by me for now.
Really?? I think Florida Pirates queue sets the mood so much better than DL. Honestly when you break it down Disneyland has the bayou, extended caverns and the shoot out but everything else is exactly the same. You could argue how do you go from a Louisiana bayou to a beach side Caribbean town at DL. WDW sets the mood with Caribbean Plaza and when the cannons were blasting really gave it atmosphere. Especially when you could hear the pirates sneaking about in the queue (here's hoping they turn down the movie overture so you can actually hear it) and hearing them digging right before you board the boats. Plus to me the long chug on the up ramp at DL breaks the illusion. I think a lot of Disney fans are preconditioned to think the original is the best and cannot be improved upon. Not saying WDW is the best version of Pirates but it doesn't deserve all the flack it receives.
