News Monster Inc Land Coming to Disney's Hollywood Studios

Pirates and Haunted Mansion are E tickets and Navi is a C ticket. It doesn't make sense to compare them and say it's not as good because it was never intended to have the scale of those attractions; it isn't supposed to be as good. It's a little like complaining that Winnie the Pooh isn't as good as the Tower of Terror.

I don't disagree with any of your suggestions, but again, they're essentially just complaints that it isn't a D or E ticket.

I would love to have a D or E ticket version of Navi, but it isn't supposed to be that. As a C ticket, it's pretty great and probably the best C ticket at Disney World. I wish Disney designed more rides like it, regardless of the scale -- Tiana, e.g., would be a much better ride if it had the detail that NRJ has.

Of course the wait times are too long, but that's just a function of Animal Kingdom not having enough attractions (and also that it's popular and people like it, because people don't wait that long for rides they don't really like regardless of the park).

I agree. As I said earlier the only real problem with Navi is it shouldn't be the "second" attraction, but is perfect as a third or fourth.

I get that you really love it, and in general it is a beautiful ride...my problem with it, is that it lacks a sense of story... Like Small World, it is lots of eye candy in a slow moving boat that just sort of ends... The one animatronic is amazing, but the ride needed a finale moment... Maybe a gigantic showroom with the tree of life in the middle and more animatronic creatures.... I think that would have made it a bigger more awe inspiring finale...and would have made it feel even more memorable... To me it is not repeatable like Pirates or Haunted Mansion....and it should have been...

Exactly this ^ It’s not what the ride is that I have the biggest problem with….its what it could have been. A better ending, some additional AAs and a basic story would have all made it better. If they made it with larger boats and/or maybe double loading they could have almost doubled the capacity coming similar in capacity to a ride like Pirates. AK was in desperate need of another true people eater and FoP is not great for capacity either.

My complaint is that it isn’t a D or E ticket . If a land has 2 rides both should be no less than D and preferably E. See Galaxy‘s Edge and hopefully now Tropical Americas . Obviously Monsters will only have 1 E ticket with a show and Cars seems like an E and something smaller. My original reason for bringing up Navi was not to bash the ride but more to say I hope the 2nd ride in Villians does not get the “supposed to be a C ticket” treatment. If they wanted to build an E and 3 Cs that may actually work but if it’s 2 rides both need to be co-headliners.
