Splash Mountain, and love the Laughing Place videos

Early childhood nostalgia pushes Big Thunder to the top for me, for its roots in Mine Train Through Nature's Wonderland and Rainbow Caverns. They were the highlight of my earliest visits and left a nostalgic dent in me that Big Thunder fits pretty well.

I was in my early thirties when Splash opened, and while I enjoy the heck out of it, I don't have any nostalgic dents that it fills.

The drenching of splash mountain will always push that one lower for me.

And thunder mtn is just so fun! (Also nostalgic... Lots of fun family memories)

Both are in my top 3 for the resort. Splash wins slightly due to the music, incredible set design, and killer finale. I love BTMRR, but the last 3rd of the attraction is a slight let down compared to the first 2/3.
