My Dad always loved this and always claimed it to be his favorite, yet due to the lack of notoriety the average visitor never makes it a point to check this out.

Well, it looks like we finally agree on something. The TTA is also one of my favorite rides in all of WDW. I think the ride is a classic and it's one attraction that I would be heart broken to ever see removed. It always brings back wonderful memories of my childhood and riding the WEDway with my family.


The Land (EPCOT) I am not saying The Land is a bad attraction. I just think it is very unworthy of being a fast pass attraction. When the title of fast pass attraction was given to this ride, it instantly became over-rated.

And that didn't last long, because I'm going to totally disagree with you on this one. I think this is about the best ride in EPCOT (Epcot these days). To me, it's fascinating, and it seems like it's in line with Walt Disney's vision for the park. I will agree that portions of the Land pavillion are overrated, but I really, REALLY, like the ride.

Underrated: Magic of Disney Animated (This walkthrough gives you great insight on what the animators truly do and it never has a line. Always overlooked)

Overrated: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (It's worse than the crowd gives it. I love the theming, I love the ride, but at the same time, it's hyped more than it truly is)

Most Overrated Attractions:

Alien Encounter - The idea is good, the execution is terrible. This attraction just does not live up to ANY of the hype it's given. The alien is just unconvincing, the thrill/chill factor is extremely low, and I didn't care for it.

Living With the Land - I have no clue why this is a FastPass attraction. I went on this ride just once, which was all it took for me to see how incredibly boring and uninteresting it is.

World Showcase - Sure, the idea of educating people about the cultures and life in various countries of the world is an interesting idea, but I get bored to tears when I walk through this section of Epcot. It's incredibly boring and what little rides can be found here aren't really worth seeing. I skip this section of Epcot knowing full well what I'm passing up.

Splash Mountain - Sure, it has great theming, but half the time there are any number of animatronics that aren't working and at the end, it's a gussied-up log flume ride. The theming is great, the ride is just ho-hum.

Most Underrated Attractions:

Tomorrowland Transit Authority - To me, this is the most relaxing ride in all of WDW. I can ride it over and over and not get tired of it. It's just an awesome way to get off your feet while still taking in an attraction, and a great way to kill time while waiting to use a FastPass. I'm actually kind of glad it's underrated because it keeps the long lines down.

MuppetVision 3D - I know a lot of people are aware of this great attraction, but others may tend to avoid it because its the Muppets and may seem like a silly kiddy show. But it's not...it's great fun for adults and children and you'll come away smiling and looking forward to another go.

Uninteresting? How can you say that about a 9 pound lemon? :)

Actually, sometimes Living With The Land gets a really long line. I know because I've waited on it. I think a lot of people find monster fruits and veggies interesting. But I guess farming isn't everyone's thing. But it's nice to get off your feet and into the air conditioning for a few minutes during those hot summer months. :)
