BTW, I'm going to lock in now my prediction that Haunted Mansion is going to win the whole shebang (I know...I'm not much of a gambler).
I thought it'd be either Everest or TOT and then people suddenly started voted Everest out...since we're in the top 4 and I still barely see Haunted Mansion mentioned, that's my prediction for winner too.

Avatar Flight of Passage has been eliminated and voted out! I'm glad it ranked high, but perhaps a bit too high. Flight of Passage is a beautiful ride, probably the best simulator ride on the planet (I still think Soarin', especially Soarin' Over California is better), and it's very immersive and impressive, especially with the banshee breathing beneath you. However, at the end of the day, it's just a screen ride. I will always prefer rides with practical sets and real effects and real scenes. I do think it's the best ride at Animal Kingdom and still better than the broken Everest. I just think screen rides can age pretty quickly and are just not that re-rideable or make a big impression on me no matter how good they are, real effects and real sets will always wow me much more. Imagine it's a small world with all screens instead of animatronics, it would be far less impressive and enjoyable. Just my opinion tho. Avatar is still excellent and stunning, with great smells, a great queue and facade, and pure immersion... if you don't look to your sides at all lol.
