Astro Orbiter could be themed to Mars Needs Moms.
Actually I think THAT is their biggest flop ever from whatI heard on NPR.

my vote has always been for meet the robinsons. I know its not a big movie, but has a great theme for tomorrowland!
I'm sorry but are you saying that Snow White's Scary Adventures and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride are not original? If so, I'm confused...
I enjoy any and all dark rides. I personally LOVE them! So I'm disagreeing with you alot, I guess this means you're not going to like the new Ariel ride very much, and I guess you're not too fond of the Haunted Mansion and Buzz Lightyear either...![]()
Mr Toad and Snow White (soon both will no longer be in the park...interesting) are slow moving rides that tell the story of the movies. Yes I am aware Ariel will be the same (perhaps thats why they are getting rid of snow white...too much of one thing). I'm saying there has to be another way to incorporate Disney movies than a slow ride that just shows the movie characters. Buzz does not go through the story of Toy Story plus it has an interactive element. Haunted Mansion (while now a terrible Disney movie) is not just the re telling of a classic Disney movie. But Snow White was exactly that....you just follow the scenes of the movie. Ariel will be the same way. I'm saying I think the mine ride is a good idea because it's different than Ariel, Snow White, Mr Toad. It's a different way of incorporating story telling than just slowly moving past animatronics. One cannot dispute (as you pointed out) that Snow White, Mr Toad and Ariel are all very similar...so they aren't exactly original rides in that they have very similar concepts.
I LOVE dark rides. SSE is as slow moving as you can get and it's my favorite. But I'm saying as far as Disney classics go, I'd like to see a new way to present the story. While I'm not a fan of the ride but Aladdins Magic Carpets is a different ride that still incorporates the movie. I want to see more of things like this. I'm not knocking Snow White or Ariel I'm just saying that it's been done...let's see another way to present this classic movie.

wait)
I'm beginning to think flying dark rides like... Peter Pan aren't working well.
*lol* Seems as if someone just forgot to tell this to the huge masses that line up at the (b.t.w. unthemed and boring) cueueing area of this classic ride every day. Ever saw the insane lines even far into midnight during EMH? If there is one proof, that flying (meaning elevated) dark rides are working GOOD it's Peter Pan's Flight.
I'll admit it's somewhat enjoyable the first 5 minutes... But half of the people that get off (over age 8) say that it was boring and cheasy.
I personally kind of like the ride. It's like Snow White's Scary Adventures, you get on it just because it's there. It's not un-entertaining but it is a little outdated... some new animatronics would be great, like the kind they're using for The Little Mermaid.I'm not against it, but you have to admit that it is a little outdated in some parts.
I personally think that if they were to put a new ride in that Tron: Legacy would be the best choice. It would fit well in Tommorowland and with its storyline it would provide an excellent ride experience due to so much action to choose from. The Lightcycle battle scene would be amazing!!! Plus it allows for an excellent queue because of the darkness of the movie surrounded by neon lights!![]()
First 5 minutes? The entire ride lasts only for 2 /12 minutes. Outdated? Of course it is and especially the Neverland part with the island is not even 1970ies standard and it shows. But it is still very popular, I don't believe that too much of the people that do it would agree with you because the lines are insane. One of the very few rides in MK with lines of that length.
The Cat From Outer Space doesn't have a WDW ride

*Please note everything I say here is hypothetical...*
Hercules should have an E-ticket dark/thrill ride in a new Greece pavilion at Epcot.
An Up flying dark ride should replace Mermaid/One Man's Dream/Narnia at DHS.
Meet The Robinsons characters should host the Carousel of Progress at MK.
I still think Rodger Rabbit's Cartoon Spin should come to DHS, but where to put it is the question...
Rescuers Down Under could have a ride in a new Australian section of AK.
Tron should have a lightcycle thrill ride in the former Wonders of Life pavilion at Epcot.
After the Princess Fairytale Hall has run it's course in Fantasyland (formerly Snow White's Scary Adventures), Repunsel and Flynn Rider should move in for a Tangled dark ride.
New scenes should be added to the Great Movie Ride for 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Tron, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. (Replace Alien, Tarzan and Gangster).
There are just some ideas I've had.
