Scale of 1 to 10- 4!!!

OK, harsh I know, but I'm a Disney fan :D what you expect lol?

PrincessWall 08-25-2006, 07:16 PM Attraction Name- Stitch's Great Escape
Location- Where ExtraTERROResterial used to be, in Tomorrowland at WDW
Fast Pass?- Yup
Does the Ride Rock?- No, it stinks!
Why Does/Doesn't the Ride Rock?- It does not rock because it was lame and pointless and you kept waiting for something to happen and the chili dog thing was gross!
On a Scale of 1 to 10, 10 Being Best...- 1/10
What's the Ride for?- For people who have never been to WDW and enjoy getting lured in by a cute blue alien that they went to the theatre to see and enjoyed the movie. Little do they know that the ride itself is very disapointing.
This thread is FUN!
AGMartin2 08-25-2006, 07:26 PM Why do i see this thread turning into a spiral of SGE flaming lol!

Schmoofy 08-25-2006, 07:30 PM Why do i see this thread turning into a spiral of SGE flaming lol!
lol! Certainly looks it now..
Attraction Name-The Haunted Mansion
Location-Liberty Square, Magic Kingdom, big house on the hill - Can't miss it!
Fast Pass?-Yup!
Does the Ride Rock?-Certainly does
Why Does/Doesn't the Ride Rock?-It's a slow moving ride through the dark, to take a look at some awesome effects. The entire experience is worth a trip to WDW alone.
On a Scale of 1 to 10, 10 Being Best...-I would give the ride an 8. Some of the scenes need to be refurbished, and the graveyard is out of sync
What's the Ride for?-The entire family!
PrincessWall 08-25-2006, 07:32 PM I love the HM, one of my favorite rides!!!
atraction name: big thunder mountain railroad
i give this one a nine out of ten it is for almost everyone i had a friend who cried when he went on it the chicken
futureimagineer1117 08-25-2006, 09:31 PM Space/Splash/Thunder Mountain(s)
Location: Splash and Thunder are right next to each other in Frontierland (how convienient?) and Space is the big white dome smac in the back corner of Tomorrowland (hard to miss).
FastPass: Duh! Lines get up to about 120 minutes. And the line to get a fastpass is longer than the ride, but it is so worth the wait.
Does the ride rock?: You bet it does!
Why does it rock: They are all just coolio different environments, and Thunder Mountain is an enjoyable baby coaster :). Splash is like it's a small world inside, it is so cute that you forget that you're on a ride with a height restriction :). and Space I've only been on once, because i chickened out all the 15 other times i got the chance, and I loved it! It's not really as dark and fast as people think, but i do remember that since the tracks above you are visible and the one you're on isn't, you always think your about to crash head-on into the other tracks, but then you drop ;).
1-10?: 10 for all of them!
Who's the ride for: everybody, but especially kids who are slowly entering the world of thrill rides! and NOT for senior citizens lol!
Jurassic park fan 08-25-2006, 09:49 PM Stitch's Great Escape.
Where alien encounter ( moment of silence ) was.
Fastpass? Mmm hmm...
Does it rock or not: Erm. It's so bad I can't even look at the queue area.
Why does it rock/not rock: Because it killed a thrill ride in it's glory, had Stitch burping Chili dogs in your face, it was short, and not exciting.
Scale of 1-10: -235/10
What's the ride for?: Just another bad idea made by disney.
Rock n' Rollercoaster.
Near Tower of Terror at MGM Studios in Disneyworld
Fastpass, yup!
Does it Rock or not?: The name says it all. ROCK n' Rollercoaster. At least this ride lives up to it's name unlike Stitch's GREAT Escape...
Why Does it rock?: 0-60 in 2.8 seconds, Aerosmith music blasting into your ears, loops, and short stops.
Scale of 1-10: 10/10
What's the ride for?: Not for the easily queasy or the people who like soft, slow music.

monilynn 01-13-2007, 03:57 PM Attraction Name- Hollywood Tower of Terror
Location- MGM Studios, Florida and California Adventure, California
Fast Pass?- uhm yes to the one in California. The line usually goes pretty fast though.
Does the Ride Rock?- Others would say yes. But I say AHHHH! I'm scared to death of the one in Florida even though I've ridden it three times. It's scarier than the one in Florida because it actually comes out of the elevator shaft and the one in California only goes up and down.
Why Does/Doesn't the Ride Rock?- I think it's scary but the whole Twilight Zone theme is very cool.
On a Scale of 1 to 10, 10 Being Best...- 7
What's the Ride for?- People who loved the Twilight Zone series.

WisePrncessSophie 01-15-2007, 04:14 AM Attraction Name- Mission: SPACE
Location- Epcot in "Future World"
Fast Pass?- Yes for daytime, but not at night or during Extra Magic Hours anymore
Does the Ride Rock?- Yes!
Why Does/Doesn't the Ride Rock?- You feel like you're being launched into space and your team has to sucessfully complete your mission during the trip! For those who are scared, there is a VERY VERY mild version of the ride, called the "Green team" or "Half-Throttle" that does not spin at all. You still get to see the same graphics and everything as the regular version of the ride, which is now called, "Orange team" or "Full Throttle." Both are fun, the ride was built by NASA, and it is a must-see!
On a Scale of 1 to 10, 10 Being Best...- 8/10, higher if you have always wanted to fly into space!
What's the Ride for?- Teens and Adults
