I'd say that Rat is objectively an E-Ticket. Is it a good E-Ticket? That is the more pressing debate (personally, I think it is a ride that I would view way more favorably if it opened in 2008 than when it actually did).
I think I’ve said this about The Little Mermaid before, and probably Ratatouille as well. It’s a D Ticket with the cost and size of an E Ticket defended as a C Ticket.
Not yet apparently. But you continue to achieve that through as much mitigation of risks as possible.
Nothing like hitting that halfway mark and having to flip the sucker to the other side (unless of course it's a dual laser model)I still have 150 and a LD/DVD player as part of my setup (No way am I replacing 150 movies). I also have a 400-disc DVD play and a 3D Blu-Ray so I'm pretty well covered
Read my signature for what defines an E Ticket. I love that quote for it’s ability to stop the inane arguments that start up around this topic.
It’s also a bit of a logical fallacy, appealing to the authority of the guy who immerses with giant boxes and broke the Disneyland Monorail.
Not really.
Mine does the flip on its own (the laser itself actually flips over). I got it back in the day when Laser was the only way to get Dolby Digital at home.
When I worked at Disney ticket designations were based on popularity, not anything else. Its why Country Bears was an "E" and Hall of Presidents was a "D" - they were swapped when CBJ turned out to be overly popular.
No. But it would be nice if they had simply matched the style of the rest of the pavilion. The flat facade in World Showcase seems lazy.
Eh.... It's still better than go away blue.
Apply it to the times when each ride opened and it makes perfect sense. All of those rides indeed fit the criteria. For modern examples it perfectly explains why something like Rise of the Resistance and also the Millenium Falcon are both E Tickets, but Slinky Dog Dash and Alien Swirling Saucers are not.
