Simple. TTA is one of the best theme rides in WDW. How's that?
Almost every other ride in the parks is a ride in and of itself. You enter a building, the ride takes place within it's own environment, and then you exit. Even those rides which are outdoors are essentially isolated.
TTA and the Liberty Belle are different. Those rides don't take you into an isolated room or place. Instead, the whole land becomes the themed environment. As simple as those rides work, they take you out of going from one attraction to another, and put you into that land. When you ride the TTA, you are actually part of a future world, it's easy to imagine yourself as someone living in this city of the future, going from a rocket trip through the stars to go fight the aliens. Likewise the Liberty Belle actually puts you into FrontierLand. you become part of that world.
These are two prime examples of the type of ride attitude that the old rides had and new ones miss. It's not the special effects or storyline - it's how they put you into an environment.
TTA may have some dull moments of black space. I think they shold be tastefully filled. Using a ride such as this would really feed into an overall future theme. I would imagine that it would be much easier to sell merchandise themed to a land if the guest felt part of it.
