MK: Stitch's Great Escape - I'm playing nostalgia on this one. Alien Encounter was a seriously frightening experience and showed creativity outside of Disney's movie warehouse. At least Tiki Room still includes snippets of the original song to enjoy, but Stitch watered down a great ride to nothing.

Epcot: The Seas w/ Nemo - Five minutes of "Nemo! Nemo! Nemo!" while the fish keeps running away. He wasn't near that annoying in the movie. They should have used him as a tool to teach us about the seas, not hiding from one's parents.

DHS: American Idol - Never been on it, but not a fan of the show. Here's one case where Disney should have reached into the movie warehouse for some inspiration instead of licensing a stale pop phenomenon from Fox. Sounds dangerous is a close second but its barely open anymore so I don't think it counts.

AK: Nemo the Musical - Again, never been to it and liked the movie, but the idea is flawed. Why would I waste 2 hours in one of the parks to see the movie live? All the other live shows at lease give you the abridged version.

Think for yourselfer
MK - Stitches great escape is a tragedy.

Epcot - I guess it would have to be HISTA

DHS - Studio Backlot tour, This has just gotten so stale over the years.

AK - If I had to choose I would say Kali River. Mostly because of how it pales in comparison to its universals raft rides.

Magic Kingdom - It's a small world (hearing that song over and over and over and over and over just about pushes me over the edge):lookaroun

Epcot - Ellen's Energy Adventure ( if that's even still there. This is our least favorite park, so we don't spend a lot of time there)

Animal Kingdom - The Affection Section (We raised goats and sheep for about 12 years, and if I never see another one, it will be too soon):brick:

Hollywood Studios - Journey into Narnia:prince Caspian (No explanation needed)

I agree 100% ^^^

The last time I got on "It's a small world" I felt like I couldn't believe I was wasting precious WDW time and desperately just wanted to get off and go to a better attraction.

On a side note, I don't get all the hate for Stich's Great Escape. It's not as good as Alien Encounter was but I like that ride a lot with the pre-show and the AA's. When I took my wife to MK for the first time, that was the attraction that made it obvious that Disney isn't just another amusement park. She was impressed.

Wait. Nemo is only a 40 minute show. Unless you're talking about queuing up for the show beforehand, in which case that's just a decision you have to make for yourself. I think the show is incredible, though I am a bit biased since I absolutely loved Avenue Q.

My least favorite attractions are:

MK
Peter Pan's Flight: Most guests have realized the monstrocities that are SGE and UNM, yet Disney's one attraction guests are willing to wait hours on end for looks like it hasn't been touched since opening. You can see the tin foil in the volcano for heaven's sake. At least when I'm force to go see SGE or UNM, I have some decent AA's to look at.

EPCOT
I gotta go with The Seas with Nemo and friends on this one. I thought the concept of the pavilion was a good one to bring life into the space, but the execution was botched, and whenever I walk out of the pavilion, I just think about what could have been if the Imagineers focused on edutainment instead of a rehash of the movie's plot.

Disney's Hollywood Studios
For me, this has got to be Toy Story Midway Mania. This thing had so much hype, and I feel that other than the Mr. Potato Head AA it falls short of being an engrossing, entertaining experience after more than one ride. The Luxo Jr. across the street, on the other hand, is one of the cutest and coolest things I have seen in WDW recently.

Disney's Animal Kingdom
I was back and forth on Primeval Whirl and Kali, but I decided on the coaster. Now I understand the story behind Dinorama, and I think it's very creative, but the whole reasoning behind why they needed to place it there in the first place and destroy the cohesive beauty of Dinoland USA really irks me. The coaster screams tacky, and the entire sub-land, though it does make sense, still feels out of place.

Allright. I'm posting my least favorite attractions out of the ones I've actually been on. I usually skip things that look boring (Prince Caspian).

MK: Snow White's Scary Adventures
DAK: Rafiki's Planet Watch (I don't like seeing the horrible cement cages the animals retreat to at night that you can view on the train ride over)
DHS: The Little Mermaid Show (it seemed very dated to me)
EPCOT: Mission Space (it just spins)

My least favorites
MK-SGE, It is so terrible, the preshow is fine, everything else is god awful
Epcot-Whats your problem(in innoventions) the biggest waist of my precious WDW time.
DHS-Backlot tour, it can hold a candel to its former self.
AK- anything in Chester and Hester


On another note i saw a few votes for CoP and UoE earlier in the thread. Those are always must rides for me.

Wait wait, people picked HISTA as worst EPCOT attraction over JIIwF?!?!?!?! Are you serious? I'm shocked!!! I'd see HISTA any day over the abomination that is the current incarnation of Figment.

MK - Obviously Stitch's Great Escape
Epcot - Spaceship Earth's descent (feels like a completely different attraction, so it should qualify ;) )
DHS - American Idol Experience
AK - Now that Tarzan Rocks is gone, this is a tough one, but I'll go with Rifiki's Planet Watch
