Battle Escape should knock Indiana Jones Adventure off my list. It'll only do that if the screens on the ride are merely backgrounds and do not feature actors. If it has video of Daisy Ridley or Adam Driver and tries to play it as if they're physically there then it's an instant F. I don't think Daisy Ridley or Adam Driver are literally in my movie theater with me when I see The Last Jedi, why would I think they're there when I'm on a ride?

Boooooo.

Are the songs in English or Japanese?
Both.

Agree, but I'll change that metric to if someone puts it in their top five list - everyone doesn't laugh them out of the room. Because it's clearly so subjective with favourites.

@TROR didn't include Haunted Mansion
@Curious Constance didn't include Indy
@Animaniac93-98 didn't include Splash
@George Lucas on a Bench didn't include the majority of attractions in California.
If I never road Indy again, I wouldn't shed a tear. 😲

A bit of both.

Buuuutttt I think WDW's is slightly better with new build animatronics. I also think Haunted Mansion is slightly better in WDW. They all have their pluses and minuses. Unlike the Pirates differential.


These things are hard to keep straight in my brain because it's not like I ride any of them frequently enough or back to back to actually really notice subtle differences.

Well me and hattiebrux are going to have to respectfully disagree with you on Splash.

Ok great! I’ll bring the Brut.


That’s good champagne right?

Who cares about the quality of sparkling wine when we’re in Wonderland? Afterward we can check the status of the missing Dumbo hedge and whine about Pixar Pier over Dole whips. :D

Mhmm yes, my limits of acceptance on that would be Shanghai's pirates. I'll allow a character in motion on a well framed screen, one pontificating at me needs to be an AA.

Basically anything but Escape from Gringott's.

Shanghai's Pirates is even too much for me. Give me two limited in movement AAs sword-fighting over a large spectacle where they're jumping around. It just looks dumb. Honestly, even the giant squids and sea floor projections on that ride look terrible but that has mostly to do with the CGI just being bad. I know the CGI on Star Tours is really bad but I'm hoping they pour a lot more money into the SFX for the movie parts of Battle Escape.
