Splash Mountain vs The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror

[DisneyAndUniversalFan]

Better ride?

Another win for Hollywood studios here. As much as Splash is a classic, the theming in TOT is almost unbeatable for me.

This doesn't seem like much of a competition if its thrill seekers answering.
I go with TOT. I could ride it 5 times in a row just to have that amazing weightless feeling.
Splash I'm cool with just once.

I picked Splash, but honestly if there was an "unsure" option I'd pick that one.

Two excellent rides that are like nothing else you see in the world. I still cannot believe the powers to be are taking Splash Mountain down. That is still just unfathomable. You can't beat the mood of ToT though. I think in many ways the anticipation scares you as much as the drop. Definitely there for the thrill seekers.

I believe this is an unfair comparison.

ToT is the ride of choice between those... I don't really enjoy being wet all day, and the redo of Splash is the icing on the cake

I honestly believe that TOT may be the best themed ride WDI has made since HM and Pirates (that didn’t have a billion dollar budget). It’s definitely the best ride that isn’t a Disney IP.

Ohhhhh, youre killing me here......as much as Splash pleases me... I have to go with ToT.

Arguably Florida’s two best attractions that have versions in other parks. I love ToT. Phenomenal thrill with some great theming. But I’m a dark ride nut. Splash is Florida’s best dark ride, and it’s also their best music ride. The thrills aren’t as good as ToT, but they don’t need to be.

That's like asking which child you like better...IMHO, TOT has the BEST queue in Disney...the attention to detail just can't be beat, but as far as the ride its self goes, I'll take Splash, hands down.

 

[DisneyAndUniversalFan]

I believe this is an unfair comparison.

How so?

 

[FettFan]

How so?

Because ToT is a technologically superior attraction with a lot more moving parts.

It's like comparing a P51 Mustang to a Space Shuttle simply because they both have wings.

Better ride?

I love Splash Mountain but tower of terror hands down is one of the greatest rides ever built. For me it has to be tower of terror.

 

[KaliSplash]

This is not close, said "KaliSplash.: ((who should be SplashKali if he had been thinking correctly when picking his name)). Splash is much longer. And far better!!

 

[belledream]

Splash gives me the nostalgia and the feel-good feelings, and since that’s gonna be gone, seems like I have no choice but to choose the ride I think about way too much. I crave those unpredictable drops!

Splash Mountain

I voted for Splash because in the end, dark rides are the best rides -- but it's pretty close to a dead heat. They're two of the best attractions Disney has ever built.

One part of the consideration for me is I can ride Tower of Terror year round. I only ride Splash when it's warm enough and I'm mentally ready enough to put up with wet socks for the rest of the day.

This poll, yeesh! It's like asking which wife I like best!

That's what an extra pair of socks in a ziploc bag is for lol...we were there in early December, the highs were in the upper 60's and my DW and I rode it 3 times. In all honesty, in the hundred + times I have been on splash, while I've gotten wet AND soaked a few times, I've never gotten soggy socks.
