Best Major Attraction?

[Fractal514]

I disagree about Pirates having, "Story, story, story, story story story , STORY!"

I think it's more about experience and atmosphere. I would argue that the problem with a lot of attractions is that they focus TOO much on story and not enough on experience. Especially since the story in so many of the attractions is either, tourists out for leisurely activity, something goes wrong, ok it's fixed, OR tourists are here, yay, they can help us find that thing/person we lost and need to find, ok, we found it.

I'm not suggesting that Pirates has no story, but that the story is very loose, open to interpretation, and very much second fiddler to experience and atmosphere.

Yeah this poll is a joke..... No Haunted Mansion but you list Captain EO? I am boycotting your poll.

So, I thought about it. What ride has amazing re-ridability, accessibility to a wide audience, that classic Disney feel, has been upgraded and maintained properly, and is unique to Disney.

Of course, the Haunted Mansion.

Only it isn't in the list. Therefore, I will vote for what I consider to be the worst ride instead. Only I'm not going to tell you which it is, so you can't just ignore that vote.

That was GOOD! I mean REALLY good. :ROFLOL:

I didn't vote because I found it absolutely shocking, that this poll includes "It's tough to be a Bug"; Captain EO!, Country Bears etc. and other secondary attractions but ignores the HAUNTED MANSION. Sorry but I cannot take serious a poll that considers the Haunted Mansion not a major attraction but the other ones.

And it includes three of the 3Ds, but leaves out the best one: Philharmagic.

I didn't even realize because I was kind of too stunned by the missing of my beloved HM to recognize. You are absolutely right. "Captain Eww" but not Philharmagic. Unbelievable.

Haunted Mansion for me. Although you some how left it off....

 

[Pumbas Nakasak]

Tower Of Terror

 

[Matt and Kelly]

Splash is my pick. Always been my favorite. Though, Tower of Terror is a very close second.

Sorry guys! I forgot about Haunted Mansion!!


I like the ride okay, yet it's not my favorite. Guess I just didn't remember it..



CBJ cracked the list because it's my favorite attraction in all of WDW, I mean, you have to give the animatronic shows a chance and it is one among the most popular AA shows isn't it? :shrug:


Captain EO is also my favorite 3D show now that I got to see it.

Take this for what it's worth, a post by an anonymous guy on the interwebs... But this post just invalidated your judgement to at least me, and possibly many others... I mean, to each his own, but you don't really care for Haunted Mansion and EO is your favorite 3D movie?!?!?!?

That's cool though, I guess we just had dramatically different taste. That's why they have Chocolate, Vanilla, and Godawful 80's gRapist sorbet.

We're cool on Country Bears though, that ride doesn't get enough love.

 

[PurpleDragon]

I would vote for the Haunted Mansion if it were an option.

You're option will be added in my post in the beginning. You're #7.

My favorite Disney rides are as listed: 1. Retro Rides, 2. 3D Shows, 3. Dark Rides, 4. Animatronic Shows, 5. Thrill Rides, 6. Live Shows, 7. Simulators, 8. Parades, 9. Others (Swiss Family Treehouse, Sounds Dangerous, Backlot Tour, Narnia)


CBJ should get some love tho. After all, it's basically the only attraction left that opened with WDW before DLR.

Haunted Mansion is certainly a top 5 attraction on WDW property, especially after the most recent refurb additions.

That being said, I think the only three that are in contention for "best" attraction are Splash, Everest, and ToT. And I had to go with Splash Mountain for the overall length of the production. It is so in depth and detailed, with a solid thrill at the end.

For everyone mad at me, I added some extra attractions including the Haunted Mansion.


In which I'm not sure how to change the poll.

Anyone who votes for any of these above, just post.

Space mt. no contest!

 

[JeffXXX]

It's too hard to choose! Even if it was narrowed down to attractions in each park separately, it would still be hard :shrug:

Oh my....This thread isn't good for an indecisive disney freak. :veryconfu:hammer:

Oh my....This thread isn't good for an indecisive disney freak. :veryconfu:hammer:

For me, it was easy. I simply narrowed it down to my favorite type of attractions, the most classic, and the most entertaining. Voila! .....The Country Bear Jamboree...... :lookaroun


IT WORKED!
