Whats the most recent bad majorish ride Disney has built?

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Right after the gutting of Great Movie Ride mid level Disney personnel associated with the new replacement pretty much promised us that a unique, never been done before attraction with new technology staring Mickey will dazzle us in ways we have never seen.

What is so unique and mindblowing about Mickey 's Railway? That Ride system has been used, reused and yet reused again and again.

Based on hype during pre release I expected it to be as high as the single best ever at WDW. Today I doubt I have it even in top 15

There’s no reason to believe what they say…it is PR

It's unfortunate but gone are the days where people are impressed more by the ride and less by the IP attached. A good example is Tron. So many are excited for it yet a better motorcycle coaster is down the road.

Agreed. We only ride it if we can get on with a very short wait. I'm dismayed when I see the line that is 90 minutes and people happily jumping in line. It just isn't worth it.... then again I think people are nuts when I see them wait 2 hours for Peter Pan.

Could not agree with this more.

Anything with screens. Bring back animatronics. Like S.I.R. Or Buzzy.

Although at land and not world, I have heard spiderman missed the mark.

Battle for Metropolis at Magic Mountain is better

There is nothing special about Hagrid's either.

We will have to agree to disagree on that one.

Whats to disagree with? Its a basic themed coaster. Theres nothing groundbreaking or 'special' about it.

Full disclosure: I'm not a Potter fan.

I still like Potter even if I never got into the books.

Good for you?
I never said the attractions aren't enjoyable. I never said they are bad.
I just said theres nothing groundbreaking about Hagrid's, which is hardly something you can contest, and that I'm not a fan of Potter, which is my personal opinion.

Runway Railway so much that I refuse to go on it. (if the wait was 5 mins I probably would go on)

Not true at all, Hagrid is an extremely complicated coaster that can run up to 12 trains and combines a ton of different elements in ways no other coaster in the world does.

 

[Disstevefan1]

To the OP. Is it too soon to say The Journey of Water - inspired by Moana?

 

[Riviera Rita]

None of the above really count as recent in my opinion...

I would put Millenium Falcon up there. It is purely a personal preference, but I have ridden it 6 times and it is just awfully boring if you're not the pilot. Sucks.

I have yet to be anything, but, an engineer and I lost the will to live sitting in that seat.

[Chef Mickey]

Smugglers Run is awful.

 

[Centauri Space Station]

Web slingers by far

 

[Centauri Space Station]

Na’vi River. A sad additional attraction to a land that was going to be a huge build up to AK.

Alien Saucer. A poor addition to include in TSL. A similar enough attraction to another which gives us nothing original.

Both are C ticket additions that work in the parks they are in. Navi is the only boat ride at dak and one of the few non height requirements as well as just a relaxing ride without any intense moments. Aliens is a needed ride to give kids something and is a flat ride which DHS had none of before.

 

[Centauri Space Station]

It's unique because it's the first trackless dark ride to take place in an empty Amazon warehouse.

JIYI wasn’t trackless but
