what attraction would you ride on again/exibit you would visit again/resturant you would eat at again/store you would visit again.

Anything in Disney that isnt opperating there now, if you could ONE and only ONE thing again from the past, what would it be?

I thought of this idea driving in my car listening to an old CD when red hot chilli peppers came on, I would most definatly ride Califorina Screaming with red hot chilli peppers again. To be honest, in my opinion, i think the other normal music ruins the ride. For me it goes down a couple knotches from an amazing rockin coaster, to some bo bo carnival. Yeah i know themeing and all of that, and i think it's b/c i rode it that way 1st, but thats just the way i feel.

OMG what I wouldnt do for 1 more ride when the ride was one of the BEST in cali!!!

Hands down, bar none, I'd want to be able to experience the entire Imagination Pavilion with the full, 2nd story Image Works the way it used to be. It pains me sometimes how much I miss it because it remains the best memory from my first trip as a little girl to WDW way back in 1984. The fact that the building is so empty and unloved and unused these days just kills me.

I was just getting ready to post and then I read yours. That makes it a tough choice because I hadn't thought of that one and you're right. That is something to be missed, no doubt.

If I could only choose one thing, though, I would have to say the "Mine Train Through Nature's Wonderland" (including the Rainbow Caverns section) at Disneyland. It was replaced by Big Thunder Mt RR and although I wouldn't trade Big Thunder for it, it would still be cool to experience.

If you have an ipod you con put in your ear buds (this is what I did on spaceship earth), I listened to Jeremy Irons while the others had to listen to Dame Judy Dench. Then again maybe taking your Ipod on a roller coaster might not be a good idea. :lookaroun

I really miss the Film from the living seas, heck I miss the original incarnation of The living seas.. Hydrolators , sea cbas, The Film, Sea Base Alpha, The Film, NOt being able to see daylight.. Did I mention the film?

Sadly, its not the same. disney altered the song so that it fit PERFECTLY with that ride, thats what i liked the best, they didnt do an aerosmith job on it (b/c DL actually cares about there rides). IF I could get that version, n kno exactly when 2 start it, then thats an amazing idea

my dad misses the living seas 2 b/c his company sponsored it, so he got to go backstage, get free drinks and food, and get right onto whatever they had in there (i dont remember b/c i was too young)

Dang, one? Thats hard. I would probably say Alien Encounter. I miss Horizons, World of Motion, and the original Journey into the Imagination, but those I got to see and do even though for some my memory doesnt paint a clear picture, I still got to see them. But AE, I never really had the guts to do, and when it was still there I was maybe too young to watch it. But now that Im older and see how horrible and mediocre its replacement is, I wish I could watch it and see if it really was that scary as people claimed or not. So it would be AE for me.

I would have to say Horizons, It was the highlight of the trip when I first visited Epcot in 1998. I was so sad on returning to orlando in 1999, to find the pavilion closed. I didn't really look at websites etc. then and had no idea that it would be closing.

After that I would have to agree with Spaceship Earth, I used ride that 1st every time we went to Epcot, and we would always finish our vacation at Epcot on the last night and ride Spaceship Earth last before leaving. The new version is growing on me, but is is not a patch on the Jeremy Irons version, especially the score.

I think many of us agree that the old Epcot Center pavilions were instant classics-attractions that inspired us and left us optimistic for the future.

I think back to my youth, riding WOM, Horizons and Imagination...my entire family riding each one 12 or so times.

The scene in World of Motion with the projected screen (just like If You Had Wings) really created the sensation of speed.

Horizons, with its ultra-cool endings let me envision a future that I'm still waiting for.

Imagination always boggled my mind with exactly how the opening scene worked, and all of the magnificent rooms to find throughout. The ImageWorks was awesome-as I was matted into that scene from Black Hole, thinking that the technology was the neatest in the world.

Living Seas-almost led me into the marine biology field. I loved it, although the first time I went inside, I expected to board a submarine, because the preview images that Disney had sent showed them.

I love vintage Epcot Center, and although Epcot is still my favorite park-I feel that it's lost some of its magic. If I could wave a wand, I'd bring updated versions of these rides back (although I must state that Nemo, when the effects are working-is fun...and Test Track is enjoyable).

I was considering doing that with an mp3 player as I love the Jeremy Irons score. How do you sync it up? Where do you start things?

Hahaha -- I was going to say If You Had Wings, back when it was sponsored by Eastern. My Dad worked for Eastern so we got to go to WDW often and it was great -- I miss those days!
