MAGIC KINGDOM
#1 Splash Mountain (Spectro put up a good fight, but couldn't get it done in the end)

#9 Wishes (Hot newbie gets the nod)

#5 Pirates (Fan favorite gets the win over the outdoor Disney mall)

#4 Mansion (In a walk...)

#6 Philharmagic (Showmanship beats static challenger)

#3 Space Mountain (Mermaids almost pull out the win for {an, but the giant cookies get the job done)

#10 Carousel (Major upset as the ol' grey mule proves she is what she used to be.)

#2 Thunder (Mr. Toad's Revenge)

ANIMAL KINGDOM
#1 Kilamanjaro (Pocahantas? what? where?)

#9 Primeval Whirl (The ride sucks, but have you ever tried to walk around in that park in the summer? boooooo... At leat there's a breeze on the ride)

#5 Kali River Rapids ( I haven't seen Tarzan Rocks! for a reason...)

#4 It's Tough To Be A Bug ("Good bug... good little bug.")

#6 The Tree of Life (park icon = win)

#3 Festival of the Lion King (no contest)

#7 Maharajah Jungle Trek (Lions are cool)

#2 Dinosaur (since we're not cool enough to have an Indy ride in Florida, this will have to do... plus, i like the ride anyway, regardless of what anyone else says.)

THE STUDIOS
#1 RNRC (haven't seen the new animation area, but RNRC is sick)

#9 The Backlot Tour (Both are pretty lame, but you can only trick a friend into sitting in a place where they'll get wet on one of them...)

#5 The Great Movie Ride (similar to Main Street reasoning... rides always beat stores)

# 4 - MuppetVision 3D (IT'S THE MUPPETS!!!)

#6 One Man's Dream (Walt's story beats a cartoon mermaid's story anyday.)

#3 Fantasmic! (are you serious?)

#10 Star Tours (The Star Tours queue is more fun than the Indy show)

# 2 The Twilight Zone - Tower of Terror (The final in this round is gonna be sick...)

Epcot

#1 Mission: Space (landside... Gary Sinese didn't even play the second half)

#9 - Ellen's Energy Adventure (Ellen's funnier than Rick Moranis, this version of Eric Idle and that stupid sneezing dog at the end, combined)

#12 - Innoventions (mandatory 12-over-5 pick... also, Maelstrom sucks. The booze and the ladies are bigger attractions in Norway than Maelstrom. Plus... there's no painfully boring movie who's theate you have to sprint through at the end of your walk through Innoventions, is there?)

#4 Spaceship Earth (you know how you find yourswlf watchig a game and it's really, really good? And, you realize that you don't want either team to loose? And, the prospect of one of the teams loosing the game is kinda depressing? Yeah, that's this game. SE gets the nod because I'm a journalist and, thus, a communications geek.)

#6 Living with the Land (Where's The Dreamfinder?)

#14 Cranium Command (When a ride in a theme park in SOuht Florida can't run because of a drizzle, it gets no love. In keeping with the NCA A theme, I'm forced to go to a chant used by the Cameron Crazies... "O-ver-rate-ed. Clap. Clap. Clapclapclap...)"

#10 The Living Seas (extremely cool pavioion hit by hard times and a lack of creativity... insert lame hoping-Nemo-can-Nemo-find-creativity or Nemo-helping-TLS-find-its way comment here.) (P.S. Also, Beverly is the nastiest thing I've ever tasted and should be illegal.)

# 2 Reflections of Earth ("Lalalala... Lalalalalala... lalalalalala... lalalalalalaaalaaala..." Yeah. Sorry. ROE in a rout.)

I also enjoyed the commentary, but I admit I'm in the dark when it comes to "giant cookies" and Space Mountain.
