HS... For now. Every time I go there, it's really just a disappointment - and this goes back to the beginning. Once the new lands come online, that will of course change, likely dramatically.
I used to be on the fence with AK, but it's gotten better over the years and forget it, once Avatarland comes online I think it'll be huge.
EC is in a state of decay, no doubt. Mostly FW, though WS has been equally stagnant - though the latter is sort of "timeless." FW unfortunately, most certainly is NOT.
MK is the MK. It will always be awesome (to me, anyway).

I can't say Hollywood Studios, they're currently making it better (though, the strip that had American Idol and the other thing are depressing now that they don't seem to be used and that awful dance party stage thing needs to go). EPCOT needs the most work, over half of Future World is barely used or severely out dated, but I don't need to get into that again.

HS still has some fun stuff, but of the four parks it's the easiest to skip on a short visit.

I'd rather be on rides. World Showcase is nice for wandering (and food), but the park overall needs more rides. I can spend the evening at WS after AK and be fine. Epcot is not a full day park anymore
Also, Frozen is not a great fit for World Showcase, but the park is desperate for more rides.

DHS is horrible. The layout of the park is confusing and just terrible since the original Backlot Tour closed and made what once was backstage areas now park areas. This change made tight bottlenecks in a couple of locations since these areas were not originally designed to be guest access. DHS does have some great a rides and attractions, but not enough to move it off the bottom of my list.
Hopefully this all changes after the new lands and major reconstruction of the nearly half the park is complete.

I don't think there's a bad park. Bc what I love others don't like as much and what others like I don't as much. For me I love MK and Epcot. Epcot I hated as a kid though, now I love it bc of WS, and that's what kids dislike. I really enjoy AK as well. I just don't see it as a full day park until Avatarland opens up. HS is my least favorite. That being said ToT and Rocking Rollercoaster are 2 of my favorite rides. I just don't like much there besides that. We're big park hopper people so AK and HS days we hop to Epcot or MK at night for the fireworks. We aren't big fantasmic fans either.

While the layout isn't ideal (I actually agree it's a little confusing) there is no way that makes the park "horrible."
DHS has one of the greatest and most intricate rides in the world, which is alone worth the price of admission. You know what I'm talking about...no need to clarify. Toy Story and RnR are fun, Fantasmic is great, and I still enjoy the shows and Great Movie Ride.
I do think its shows need updating and a ton of the park is underutilized, but there are improvements on the way.

I dunno if "worse" is really the right term, I do like/love all of them. But my least favoured park right now would have to be Epcot.
It disappoints me greatly to see the direction Epcot has fallen towards and the lack of life the park has underdeveloped over the years. At one time, this park was fantastic and looked so promising. THIS was the park to look at going forward. It never happened. Even worse, they took many great things like Imagination & Maelstrom and destroyed it. Sure Epcot has their festive events and what not the park still offers along with lots of beautiful details. But they have taken away a lot more than they have added. Bringing Frozen to Epcot in the manner they are is still a head scratcher and not well planned in my opinion.
I do however have hope and expect things to turn around in the distant future. Many years from now I actually do expect another country or two to be added, Dreamfinder to return and more. But a long LONG time from now.

Epcot for me. While it may technically be better than HS now... by 2021, when TSL and SWL are done, Epcot will be in even worse condition than it is now, and HS will be the best shape it has ever has been. HS had a disastrous past and a promising future, but Epcot had a promising past and is looking to have disastrous future.

HS doesn't have a bad layout, necessarily... But it's been so gutted that none of it really makes sense like it used to. The whole place just feels kind of "lost."

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
For me, DHS is a 5 or 6 hour park - at least three times per trip.
Tower of Terror (twice!), Rock 'n Roller Coaster (single rider), Midway Mania (FP+), Great Movie Ride, Frozen Sing-Along, Star Tours, MuppetVision, Little Mermaid, dinner at Sci Fi or Prime Time, some Streetmosphere, and a bit of shopping.
Add in the occasional Beauty and the Beast or Indie show; and a round of fireworks, Osborne (yes, I know they're gone), or Fantasmic and all in all, you have a highly satisfying 5 or 6 hours, thank you.

I'm removing the Studios from the debate because that park is obviously getting a complete overhaul. For me, I say Epcot. I love World Showcase. But the entirety of Future World is lacking to me. The "Leave a Legacy" tombstone set the stage, and not a good one. I wish that entire side of the park could be redone.

Back when this thread was started in 2001, you can make an argument that HS was the worst, but they've added a lot since then, and now its under a major renovation.
