Not sure if this has ever been posted before, but I'm looking for everyone's most underrated attraction. This would be an attraction you don't really hear much about (whether good or bad), but one that you really do enjoy and look forward to going on before your trip. Here's a few of mine:

Magic Kingom - Country Bears, COP
Epcot - Ellen's Universe of Energy
Studios: MuppetVision

Also, I think in terms of most underrated parks I have to go with California Adventure - if you've never been, it really is a great park - something for everyone.

Thanks

MK-CoP definitely
Epcot-Ellen and SE isn't very busy after everybody rides it in the morning since it's the first thing they see and it's my FAVORITE ride in all of WDW.
DHS-Not really one but if I had to choose I would say Muppet Vision also.
AK-Flights of Wonder! and I know a lot of people don't like Finding Nemo: The musical but I love it!

MK--Tom Sawyer's Island is good for a romp
Epcot--Spaceship Earth b/c I love it and people tend to flame it
HS--the new Narnia attraction b/c its cool if short
AK--Primeval Whirl is the best mouse type rollercoaster

I picked the more obscure ones (except SE) that I enjoy and are my must-dos.

outside of the awesome intercotee's here :rocks: no one i know really know's of maelstrom. i love this ride and to my benefit don't think i have ever really waited for this attraction. i also love the movie at the end. :number1:

as for muppet vision 3D, i absolutely do not think they should ever get rid of this attraction. it is one of my absolute favorites at mgm and i crack up every time i see it. especially the intro with sam eagle and A Net Full of Jello!!! :rotfl:

It seems like we wait forever to ride Maelstrom. (It is worth it though!)...:thumbsup:

Agree with everything except CoP. I think the most underated at MK is Country Bears. I hate how it seems to always get trashed on boards like this. I know it has a lot to do with my love for nostalgia.
Primeval Whirl is a great mouse ride.

Right now, I'd have to vote for TTA. And, I just found out it's going to be closed while we're there. :(

I'd go with:

MK - TTA (while it is very popular here on Intercot, it definitely flies under the radar in the outside world)
Epcot - I'd go with the Imagination Labs
DHS - Backlot Tour
AK - Kali River Rapids (at least when its warm out)

One of my family's favorite rides in the MK is the CoP. We would be devastated if it ever closed.
We also enjoy the Primevil Whirl in the AK. It reminds me of the old fashioned carnival rides.

I do hear many people say the Country Bears should be done away with, but this is one of my "must dos" on every trip. I do believe that they could use a little spruceing up though.

I have much love for the Maelstrom as well.:mickey:

Here's another vote for Primeval Whirl in AK as the most underrated attraction. It doesn't get much "press" but it is tons of fun :woohoo: and usually has very little wait time. Our family loves it.

My old answer for this would have been Cranium Command, man that was great and so many people skipped it.

My new answer would be

MK - CoP
EPCoT - HISTA
DHS - One Mans Dream
AK - caricature artist...he he

To paraphrase Sam, "Getting rid of this show is simply unpatriotic!" :)

One Man's Dream in DHS. I can't leave without visiting this at least once! But I'm also a history fan, so this is the perfect combination :mickey:

Hmmm most under rated attraction at each park?....
MK: though i love cop and the people mover :) id have to go with philharmagic.... it has so much disney magic yet it never seems full
epcot: maelstrom definently, i love this ride
mgm: one mans dream, another attraction that is never busy. Its such a tribute to Walt im really surprised its not busier.... I always spend about an hour in there. Of course im totally fasinated with the many facets of walt and his company.
and finally i think AK is under rated as a whole, I know there are decent crowds there but still the general opinion doesnt seem to prefer this park, when compared to the others. It isnt my favorite either although it is a very beautiful park.

This is a hard question...

MK: CoP (although it seems to have been getting more and more crowded the last few years, which is good, b/c then they can't close it!! :thumbsup:). I'd like to say CBJ, but thats chuck full every time I go.. the only time I hear bad things about it is online :blush: Also, Philharmagic... best 3D movie Disney ever did and I all too often hear people say "Oh its just a movie, lets skip it."

Epcot: The American Adventure! I cannot miss this, we usually see it twice (though I must admit its more for the Voices of Liberty beforehand that we see it a second time!) Also JITIWF- I know a lot of you are always trashing this ride because you want the Dreamfinder back but to be honest, I'm too young to remember him, so I like this ride the way it is just fine! :figment:

DHS: One Man's Dream (although WHY they don't stay open all day is beyond me.. we didnt get to see it last trip, I was bummed)

DAK: PIPA- If you can find PUSH's cousin, he's absolutely hysterical!!

MK: I would say the TTA. The ride is so simple but it is very relaxing, it gives a good view of the park and gives some downtime without feeling like downtime.

EC: Living with the Land. This is such a great attraction. Again it is relaxing and interesting. It is also the rare attraction that is actually a working attraction.

I'm glad to see that someone else likes One Mans Dream at the Studios.I guess it could be tough with little ones but my wife and I absolutly love it,after all,it's the story of the guy who started all this.The models of the parks and castle are cool and the movie at the end is awesome.We also really enjoy Rafiki's Planet Watch,it's very relaxing and informative and the rainforest sound rooms are pretty cool.

In the Magic Kingdom, I LOVE Philharmagic. I have seen folks standing outside, then saying, "Oh, it's a show..." and walk off! I am such a Dis nerd that this show actually has moved me to tears. :secret:

In Epcot, I love Living With The Land.

Disney Studios has to be the Sci-Fi, not an attraction per-se, but it is to me. So what if the food's not great! What a cool place to be!

Animal Kingdom, The Flights of Wonder bird show is a hoot (no pun intended)!:D

It's funny, because most of us here appreciate TTA, but when I mention it to non-addicts, they say, "What ride?" They either don't know what I am talking about, missed it completely, or don't "get it".

MK - Mickey's Philharmagic, when we went on it a few days ago we were centered to the screen and about 8 rows back. I forgot how awesome the 3d effects are from those seats... as did my 10 year old son that jumped back when Simba's head popped out.

Epcot - Maelstrom

DHS - Animation Academy where you learn to draw a character. Went there 10x or more before ever seeing this. I can't draw well at all and they actually come out not sucking.

AK - nothing jumps out at me...

Right now, I'd have to vote for TTA. And, I just found out it's going to be closed while we're there. :(


Don't remind me...we are SOOOO bummed!!:drama:

One Man's Dream in DHS. I can't leave without visiting this at least once! But I'm also a history fan, so this is the perfect combination :mickey:

:thumbsup:ITA! I'm not a history buff, but I think it should be a "must see" for anyone who goes to WDW. It's got so much information on the history of the man behind the parks that you leave with a greater appreciation. I think it's so sad that it's closing early sometimes.
