If you had the choice to Re-theme, Refurbish, Close and Create an attraction in Disney World, what would you choose for each category and why?

Re-theme: Rock 'n' Rollercoaster... I've had a lot of fun on this attraction but feel its time to re-theme it to fit the Hollywood Studios vibe. A TRON theme would be fantastic and the soundtrack would make for an amazing experience.

Refurbish: Perhaps it's the obvious choice but I can't pretend like Expedition Everest doesn't need a refurb. At the same time I know that until Pandora makes its way into Animal Kingdom we certainly won't see one. From the obvious (Yeti) to so many rather basic effects working at random, it could most definitely use a 2-3 month refurb. The Great Movie ride would come in second place.

Close: I guess I'm one of the weird ones because I actually don't have an issue with Stitch's Great Escape (because I know this will hands down be the most voted to be closed). I also refuse to be quick in saying that a certain attraction in WDW deserves to be scrapped (because like it or not a lot of the attractions certainly deserve to remain timeless and never close). So if I ultimately had to choose one attraction to close, I would have to go with the American Idol Experience. It's an obnoxious, almost irrelevant eyesore that needs to disappear to make room for something much greater.

Create: Hands down a larger Star Wars presence within Hollywood Studios needs to be created and honestly I feel it's only a matter of time before we see an E ticket Star Wars universe dark ride similar to Forbidden Journey.

Re-theme- I agree with the person who said RnRC- just because I think Aerosmith is dated now (but classic and good, just not moving with more modern music)
Refurbish- PotC- I'd like to see something more intense
Close- Extreme stunt show at DHS
Create- Star Wars land at DHS

Re-theme: This is tough. I'd say Rock'n' Roller Coaster, but I quite frankly don't know what to change about it. I honestly think that its placement is terrible (giant electric guitar next to a 1930s hotel?), and that isn't easily fixed. I'd love a Tron ride, but this isn't it. Only because I can't think of anything else, I'm going to call an overhaul to Journey Into Imagination a re-theme and everyone can rejoice.
Honorable mention: Universe of Energy overhaul.

Refurbish: Another tough one, because a lot of refurbishments are needed. Take your pick. Finish Spaceship Earth, fix Dinosaur, or fix Everest.
Honorable mentions: partial un-refurbishment of Pirates and clean-up of Great Movie Ride.

Close: Tomorrowland Speedway. Newsflash: the future isn't "you get to drive a car running smelly fuel." That isn't even today. It's yesterday. This concept isn't Tomorrowland-worthy. Get it out, and use the wealth of space for something else.
Honorable mention: the Haunted Mansion interactive queue, because I still hate it.

Create: Star Wars something. Reasons should be obvious.

Retheme - Journey into Imagination. It needs something, anything!!!

Refurbish - Peter Pan's Flight. That just needs a good overhaul. Great ride but needs to be brought into the year 2013

Close - Captain EO. Just put this to rest already!

Create - Cars Land or a version of for DHS. My second choice would be a bigger Star Wars presence in the parks (mainly DHS) as well.

Retheme - Ellens Energy Adventure (dump the fossil fuels theme and concentrate on green energy alternatives)
Refurbish - Space Mountain (do all the refurbs that got cancelled)
Close - Tomorrowland Speedway (biggest waste of space in all of WDW)
Create - Beastly Kingdom (best idea from the Imagineers never to come to fruition)
 
Re-theme: Tomorrowland Speedway (maybe turn it into a TRON racing type indoor ride?)

Refurb: Expedition Everest, really easy choice for me too, because when I rode it in 2009 I think, that yeti was INCREDIBLE, and now it is just an ordinary animatronic, whereas it needs to be the center if that ride...

Close: American Idol, or Captain EO, if I could pick two it would be these, I jut really don't think they fit into WDW

Create: The Monsters Inc Door Coaster in Pixar Place. I know there are rumors that it could be going into DCA, but I would personally love it, it could be the catalyst for what I think could be potentially one of the best lands in WDW in Pixar Place, and DHS desperately needs a D/E ticket ride to give it a boost, it's a win win win situation

Re-theme : not sure..... Maybe the whole Imagination pavilion back into IMAGINATION without the Institute or sciency thing.

Refurbish : DEFINATELY Imagination back into something like the original, but better.

Close : Stitch

Create : an amazing up-to-date Alice in Wonderland dark ride! Or a whole Wonderland area in MK! That would be awesome!!!! :)
