Disney World has tons of hits, but there are rides that I skip out on. Some are just in need of updates, while some are taking up room from what could be better rides. I am going to share with you three of my least favorite, and what I would like to happen with the space. After you read mine, comment the same below or make your own blog post and share the link.
Note: I am not calling any of these rides "bad" rides, these are just the ones I do not personally like. What could be ones least favorite, could be another's most favorite.
Number Three
Tomorrowland Speedway
I am sorry to say, but I do not like the Tomorrowland Speedway. I don't really know of others opinions outside my own families, but I truly did not enjoy it. It is a car on a track that goes very slow. The steering element is hardly there, our turns were so jerky and bumpy. I am sure kids enjoy this ride as they have never been behind a wheel before, but I feel there is something that can be done to elevate the excitement of this ride for both kids and adults alike. The element of Tomorrowland is lost on me in this ride. Maybe if they updated it just a bit to make it more futuristic, I would be on board. Possibly make the cars look newer and fresher. Give the track some fun lights and tunnels. I feel that tomorrowland has to change with tomorrow in order to keep to it's name.
Number Two
Ellen's Energy Adventure
I used to really enjoy this ride back in the day. That is, until recent times. To make this short, the last time I went on this ride there was NO more Ellen animatronic. What? No Ellen in Ellen's Energy Adventure? Okay, that was strike one. Strike two is that it is so very highly outdated. The video is outdated and it shows. It is not very current which makes it easier for me to get bored. This ride is also a whopping 45 minutes long with the actual ride time falling short. So, with a mostly outdated video and a ride that is missing animatronics, I choose to pass. What should take it's place? I am not sure, but that is one big building! Epcot could use another quality ride. How about giving us a roller coaster in Epcot? Possibly a time traveling themed one to go with it's place in future world? Or, they could just make another really cool dark ride. Get Ellen and Bill back in for another current video and really fix up the dark ride instead of taking things out. If all else fails, how cool would a Big Hero Six or Inside Out dark ride be? They already have the meet and greets there. All in all, some sort of update needs to happen in order for me to go back on the ride.
Number One
Stich's Great Escape
Well, this one may not be a surprise. I know many people who loathe this ride. I am one of them. For starters, this ride hurt me! They strap you in by using sensors...so make sure to sit up very straight! I was putting something in my pocket and had a painful bar pushing down on my shoulders. It was almost comical as the whole crowd of people collectively says "ow". Nothing says fun ride by being physically hurt through it. I don't like the idea with that happening to kids either. I know many kids who would not want to be strapped into a stationary ride in the dark. Another thing about this ride is that nothing really happens. It's dark. It's loud. It get's foggy. Stitch appears, burps in your face, and it's essentially over. Come on, Disney! I want this to be turned into a dark ride. I want it to be about the GOOD stitch, not the bad one. I would love for it to be about Lilo and Stitch going to catch all of the other aliens. Much like a show they had on Disney a few years back. Stitch is my favorite character, so it pains me to hate his ride! I don't want them to get rid of stitch, just change his ride!
So, what do you think? What are your least favorite rides and what would you do to replace them?
Talk to you all soon,
Tann
