my number 1 would have to be Nemo stage show. Stitch is a close second. I've never done Sounds Dangerous. write up sounds horrible. I'm not impressed with Soarin' although I do ride when I have newbies with me. Dinorama area is pretty bad.

Agreed for all the reasons listed.

Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse:fork:. I can't believe that even exists! It seem's like a mueseum, but there aren't even eany antiques! Just a boring walk through attraction. I don't get why people hate Stitch but love Alien Encounter:shrug: aren't they basically the same? Worst ride: Mexico ride or Imagination. I saw the ride video for the first version of Imagination and can't fathom what they were thinking:hurl:.

Again someone who just doesn't understand how imagineering a disney-park works. There are other elements among an attraction that can be of importance and add to the atmosphere than just a bunch of rides and shows. SFTH is adding a lot to the tropical atmosphere, it creates a background, it works as a secondary weenie for the Adventureland area. It's an asset of the entire Adventureland area and doesn't spoil anything, like those terrible Flying Carpets do.

Since Stitch has been mentioned 100x I'm not going to bother, so I have to say It has to be The Enchanted Tiki Room – Under New Management. Having been through the West Coast version multiple times it really is a letdown.

You have to have an imagination to appreciate the SFTH.Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse:fork:. I can't believe that even exists! It seem's like a mueseum, but there aren't even eany antiques!

My worst is 'Soarin', I think it's over rated, the queueing area is dull, I always get the 2nd or 3rd line so I see peoples feet dangling, there are black spots on the screen and the location has no relevance to WDW.
I'm not totally knocking it, its good in theory, but needs work. I like the smellie-vision, and the pre-show guys is better in this than 'Rules of Engagement ':snore:
I agree 'Narnia' is a waste of space, I only remember looking at a table and watching a clip of the film!

I get that it adds themeing and all that, but think the actual walkthrough part could be done better. I don't know HOW they could do it better..a drifferent film? Something original?:shrug: We've done it a few times, but when we only get to Magic Kingdom every few years we'd rather spend our time doing something else.

One more vote from me for 'the SFTH is awesome'. I adore the Treehouse! :sohappy:
But to each his own of course.
Next to adding great theming, the Treehouse also adds diversity to the attraction roster. This one you can walk, explore, climb. You get to expend some energy. And there's lovely views everywhere. Just like Frontierland needs some frontier experiences like the canoes (cough) and Tom Sawyer Island, so too does Adventureland need a place for some tropical exploration, on foot.

My Least favorite ride would have to be either the new mexico ride or winnie the pooh. They are just dull. And Winnie the pooh is the same ride as snow white and peter pan.

Whoa Astro Orbiter is fun, come on now. In fact it's the only ride that could fit into that area on top of the Peoplemover, so actually it's a great use of space.
I agree about soarin.

Well assuming the Tiki Room is soon once again Under Walt's Management my choice would be Narnia.... its cool looking and all....but I have to admit I really thought I was watching the pre-ride show the 1st time I saw it lol....when it was over I was sorta surprised to be exiting the place hehehe...
As for Maestrom...its a cool ride...but I kind of wish theyd scale down all the Oil company shameless plugs in the entire thing....

I don't recall seeing any advertisements for a specific oil company. I guess you could say they're advertising oil as an industry, but what's wrong with that? It is indeed an industry and will be for a long time. According to CNBC Norway is the 15th largest oil exporter in the world, which equals:
Crude production: 2.14 million barrels per day
Share of world production: 2.45%
Daily crude exports to the US: 35,000*
Proven reserves: 6.7 billion barrels
So, oil seems to be pretty important to Norway's economy, why shouldn't it be part of a ride ABOUT Norway?

Oil is one of Norways major industries and fundemental in delivering the lifestyle of modern Norway, it would be odd not to give it prominence.
