Your reaction to seeing a long lost favorite attraction, how would you loose your cool?

i wish i could just go back to the parks one time each on opening day, then on their current half life year and then again in 2010 if i could do those 3 day in a row and experience all the changes really close, would be cool to me. AND you want to talk about freaking out, i don't know if they'd send me to the loony bin

Well, on opening day, you'd miss out on a lot of great attractions, and a few EPCOT countries as well. Of course, the same could be said for now as well.

If I walked into the Magic Kingdom and found 20kluts had been restored to it's original glory, I would run to the railing, scream out "PROFESSOR, WAIT!" and cannonball into the lagoon.

Ulgh. Falling into the 20k lagoon. I only vaguely remember seeing it in the early 2000s on my first trip, long after the subs were gone, but I'm deathly afraid of the idea of falling in. Even with it filled in, I still get nervous and I'd be even more nervous if it was still around. Being trapped in that water, or in that dark, abandoned cave with those frickin' scary squid. All my worst fears.

Anyway, as for lost favorite attractions, well, it's not too long ago, but I'd freak out if I could see the Pixar Block Party in person. I never hear many people talk about it, but oh my God, that "parade" was so cool. Just watching it on video makes me want to jump around and dance like I'm at a concert. Such an energetic show.

Of course, I'm very disappointed that I never saw the original JiI. I'd be bouncing in my seat and staring about in wonder if I could see the turntable and the science segments respectively. Also, special mention to Magic Journeys. I think it'd be a real, uh, experience to see that in 3D on the big screen.

Seeing the original Test Track would make me so happy. To be honest though the thing I want to see most isn't even an attraction or parade, it's the original Main Street Bakery. Not the Starbucks junk it is now, but when there were tables inside and lots and lots of sweets to choose from.

I miss the bakery too. Best cinnamon rolls and coffee cake. While they still sell these throughout the resort they haven't been the same since they turned into Starbucks.

Honestly I would have loved to have seen Epcot a few years after it opened with Horizons, the original Imagination and the predecessor to test track. I would have really enjoyed walking around communicore and experiencing Sea base alpha. I would have enjoyed seeing the double decker busses driving people around World showcase. Honestly I would be so excited to experience all these things I never got the chance to that I'd probably forget to take a moment to just enjoy the smaller crowds and well maintained park.

The one I liked was dead in 1999 and it still looks bad after a mediocre refurb.

I think World of Motion would get my geek on. I still think that a better job could be achieved with AAs in the current TT ride layout. I was disappointed that AAs were not included as part of TT 2.0. It would easily be the best ride in all of WDW. If SDMT and Splash can have fun coupled with AAs entertaining then a new ride (World of Motion: Testing and Design) using AAs to educate and entertain could be amazing.

Just think of it, design the cars to look like real GM cars from different eras. Start by theming the first hill as a trip back in time to how cars were originally tested. Move forward in time as you progress through the ride using each track element to highlight different testing/design methods from the early days up and into the future. All culminating with a futuristic look at transportation blasting into a high speed loop to get back to current day. The AA's could include pioneers from all aspects of the automotive industry helping you understand how cars have evolved through testing and design. Plenty of people from GM's past could be used, Harle Earl, William Durant, Louis Chevrolet and a nod to some of the competitor pioneers, Henry Ford, Daimler, Benz, etc. That would be a ride to rival Horizons.

If I saw Dream Flight again, I'd spend the whole day riding it.
