i would think the other...other than you three i have never heard of anyone actually liking MIB. When i was at the concierge desk i would talk to the guest and they almost all said with ease that Buzz is a lot better than MIB.
So...i would stick with my asumption since it takes into account people who i have not talked to but i know that 75% is nowhere near being close to correct.
Please tell me why kids would love a ride where they can barely see what to shoot and has no characters they like over a ride that fun for them where they get to control what way to face and get to interact with their favorite Toy Story character?

anyway back to the main point of this thread... the gringots ride seems to be a mummy/spiderman hybrid. which i think is pretty cool

Because they get a well themed ride, based on a movie most of them have seen, moving through an actual purpose-built show building past real physical sets and animated figures.Bullsforthewin said:
Buzz was done on the cheap, shoe-horned into an existing space, utilizing the very same ride system and track that had been in use for decades, and populated with flat cut-out figures.
Even Imagineers will tell you MiB blows Buzz away, to the point of many at WDI wanting to pull Buzz out.
It would be fun to post a poll here and let the posters choose which they prefer. Perhaps I will....
MiB is not cheap.
You could have built and installed several Buzz rides for the cost of the one MiB. Fact.

ROFL when I saw those last few posts I decided the same.
MIB is a full-on Dark Ride that would be cool even without the guns. While Buzz is okay (hey, it's a dark ride, and I love dark rides) MIB is simply much more expansive. I mean, the alternate endings are AMAZING if you are lucky enough to get one (they actually "present" you with your suit, and you don't get mind wiped).
As to TSM...as I've said before, I should charge admission to my living room, where I can set up two Wii's and two LCD's, put you in an office chair with rollers, and pretty much duplicate the experience with the Wii version of the game.
I get that a lot of people like it, but MIB isn't even in the same universe as that ride.

As much as I am not a fan of video screens, I agree. If the ride comes out as TPI described, then that sounds like one amazing attraction.
And even the minor Potter fan I am (I've seen the movies a couple of times, still haven't seen the last two but will get around to it), I think the idea of connecting the parks is BRILLIANT.
My guess is they just might eliminate the "two park" add-on fee at the same time. Probably just jack up the prices on the standard ticket to compensate (so really they would just take away the single park ticket as a cheaper option) but I don't see them checking every ticket at the attraction like they used to do at the HRC entrance way back when it was in the Guitar building.

You're right. It isn't fun or interesting anymore.

After reading through the responses on this board, I can see that you can't convince a dust sniffer to change their opinion about Uni.I think he must be confusing WDW with that weird China rip-off Happyland park or whatever it's called.
Wouldn't that explain a lot?
