Top 5 Rides in Orlando
- Thread starter Turtle
- Start date
1. The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man
2. Haunted Mansion
3. Splash Mountain
4. Men in Black: Alien Attack
5. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey
Tower of Terror used to be towards the top of this list, but fell from grace when they added the seat belts. No air time, no fun.
I haven't been on Transformers.

I like RR but it's no top 5 or even near the top 5 for me. It's mainly just a tame roller coaster with a lot of neon for me. Fun to be certain, but not ultra impressive at the end of the day.

I think they were referring to RnRc. Rock 'n' Rollercoaster starring Aerosmith.
It's fun, but there are much better coasters in Orlando.

1. Soarin' Beyond the most magical ride there. Sure, a few updates are needed but other than that, it's a ride that I allows me to feel one thing I've dreamt of since I was a child, flying. Plus the soundtrack is one that never fails to get me to smile.
2. Tower of Terror- Direct theming from start to finish, it holds it's own individual atmosphere in the park. The fact that you never know how many or what order the drops will be is terrifying. Anywhere I am beyond bored on the drop rides, to many are predictable and lacked abrupt drops.
3. Space Mountain, its fun and there aren't any extreme drops nor is it overly fast. What makes it so great is that you never know where you will be going next in such a dark room. It also oozes with classic Disney nostalgia.
4. PotC- A gentile ride with outstanding decor and theming. It's realism (though not nearly as much in the animatronics as they could be) is beyond compare and immediately transports you to the world of pirates. It's catchy theme song is also to mentioned for adding to magic of the ride.
5. Expedition Everest- A fun, unique coaster with a strong theme. Disney did much research for this ride and it really does show. The queue is one my favorites and the designs are very accurate to buildings in Nepal. The ride is unique due to it going backwards and the mountain is fairly realistic in looks (not size). Overall the ride is strong in aesthetics and engineering is truely a great ride.... For fifth place..
Honorable mention- The OLD Test Track.
NOTE: I haven't really been to any other parks in Florida! Never been to the UNI in Orlando

1) The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror- Perfect execution, themeing, love the queue music, and an awesome ride. This is what Disney is all about to me.
2) Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey- Not a big HP fan, but wow, what a ride. It was the first ride that made my jaw drop in a long time.
3) The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man- Nothing needs be said for this one.
4) Spaceship Earth- I'm a sucker for history/geography stuff, plus it's classic DIsney/Epcot.
5) Splash Mountain- I'm a Georgia boy, so I love the music. Makes me feel right at home. Other than that, I love a good flume ride and the themeing is top notch.
