Test Track is the only classic Epcot ride that still gets love. Everything else (especially Figment) is a shell of its former self.

At least we have Chris Pratt replacing Ellen.... ya know what.... Chris Pratt should go on Deal or No Deal Jeopardy vs Stupid Judy.... Star-Lord's Energy Adventure.... with Crissy Guerrero (Rin Satsuki's hypothetical VA) instead of Bill Nye.... cause Bill Nye is a fake....

Living with the Land still gets occasional updates.

well... maybe it does, but nothing meaningful... changing a film... replacing worn out carpet...It really needs a complete interior facelift and get it out of the "Airport Shopping Mall" style and make it truly a reflection of the Pavilion theme... The Land...

A full refurbishment would be amazing for this classic ride.

But until they decide to do that I’m okay with them restoring previously working effects and even plussing some scenes here and there.

What’s wrong with living with the land that it needs a full refurbishment?

It's very stuck in 1993. The barn scenes were recently updated thankfully, but the finale still leaves a lot to be desired. Adding the song back would do a lot to help it too. For as great as it still is, a lot of its charm was sterilized in the switchover to Living with the Land.

Does anyone happen to know why many praise this ride like it was the greatest thing ever? I have been on it many of times and I must be missing what they think is so good?

When and how were barn scenes were updated? I don't remember hearing about that. Unless you're not referring to the barn with the video projections

Most are a bit hyperbolic, but LWTL is truly an underated gem. I don't think there is any ride at WDW that is like LWTL (SSE is close but feels more comparable to something like HM in its presentation). Its a very calm and relaxing ride with great show scenes, a soothing soundtrack, and overall feels like a classic Disney dark ride. A lot of new rides and attractions that open nowadays feel very action packed and/or stimulating (Ex: CR, ROTR, TBA, RRA,). However LWTL is the exact opposite of that, which I feel is the appeal of the ride.

Also I love the sound of the waterfall in the rainforest scene.
