Ugh. I have been sitting here staring at the cursor blink, not knowing which one to choose :banghead:. My heart tells me BTMR. It's the one ride where I have a huge, cathartic laugh on the double-dip and finally release the entire year of reality. However, this past trip, Splash was right up there day and night experiences. It's like asking which child I love more. :(

Until my last visit in December I would have said Space in a heartbeat. But either I'm getting older or that track is deteriorating because it shook me up pretty bad. I still rode it five times in a row at rope drop, but it was rough. I voted for Splash because its a great ride, the drops are mildly thrilling, and the music can't be beat.

I've said it many times before and I'll say it again -- Splash Mountain is the perfect Disney ride, combining thrills and magic into one zip-a-dee-doo-dah package.

Space is fun, but it's not that thrilling compared to Splash and Space Mountains at other Disney parks. And to be blunt, Thunder isn't even that much fun.

Splash is quite possibly the perfect attraction. The right balance of thrills, sometimes chills, spills and the greatest soundtrack ever. Although I do wish they did a Halloween version of the ride. Slow down the music and then shut off all the animatronics like they were when the ride was having issues.... that would be freaky.

Fun Poll #2 but my answer is the same. Space Mountain!! Love the queue, the music, the loading dock, the darkness, the thrills!

I'd probably say Splash, for the reasons mentioned already. Also, probably the only "thrill" ride at WDW that my mother will ride. She doesn't do coasters, TOT is out of the question, and rides that spin make her sick. (Admittedly, Peter Pan's Flight can make her sick; she's a bit of a lightweight.)

Wow! Tough question!! I had to pause and think for a second about my response. I love the theme of Splash and the music. But, I also love the theme of the other two. In the end, I chose Space for these reasons: (1) when I see that ride as we pull up to MK on the first day of our trip, that's when it hits me that we are actually in WDW, so that put's it above the other two; (2) Remembering back to how I treated FPs for these three rides, I walked fast to get to the ride cars on Splash and BTMR, but I recall having to refrain myself from breaking into a full out sprint to get to the ride car in Space; and (3) Although I love them all, I know I get more antsy when I step into the space ride vehicle than I do getting in the Splash boat or the BTMR car and I know I feel more exhilarated when I step off Space than I do the other 2.

Not a huge fan of water rides really, but between this group, it's Splash except for the lingering mildew smell that sticks to you. The scenes are great, fairly immersive, and the drops are fun. I'd go with SM but the track feels like an old carnival roller coaster at this point, and the last 2 times I've ridden I've come out with a nasty muscle pull in my neck. BTMR is ho-hum for me.

I still chose Space Mountain, but that was based off when it first came out. Not many people will know the feeling of waiting in that line as it snaked back towards Fantaslyland. 3 hours later you are up in the queue watching the asteroids, comets, and other things go by. Once there, you knew it was about 45-60 minutes more before getting on.
