    For me: Stich's Great Escape - Indiana Jones (been there to long and have seen it too many times) - Tomorrowland Indy Speedway (I have to drive everyday, don't need the track driving and long wait for this)

    For me and my family, the attractions we won't wait more than 5 minutes for are:

    At MK:
    1. Tomorrowland Speedway (actually we don't ride this at all, even with no waiting. My boys like real go cart rides and won't waste their park time on this attraction)
    2. Winnie the Pooh
    3. Peter Pan
    4. Snow White
    I know these last three may be considered classics but we have ride them many time in the past and we ride them now only if no waiting.
    5. Dumbo (and Aladdin's carpets) (kids have simply outgrown these one, but we like to watch others ride Dumbo.)
    6. Stitch's great Escape. seen it once or twice, will do it if no wait and nothing else to do.

    At DHS:
    1. Fantasmic (always has excessively long waits and it's just not that good to us.)
    2. Sounds Dangerous (been there, done that, once was enough)

    I think we like everything at AK and EPCOT enough to wait a little while for, even though we not necessarily try to do or see every attraction on every visit to these parks.

    It spite of MK having the most attractions that we are willing to skip, MK is still our favorite park. Splash Mountain, BTMRR, Space Mtn, POTC, Haunted Mansion, Mickey's Philharmagic, and Wishes, among others, more than make up for the attractions we think aren't worth waiting for.

    For me, I will never ride Stitch again. The others that I don't think are worth the wait personally are Sounds Dangerous and ITTBAB (I'm scared to death of spiders!), and the Speedway (I drive every day). I will wait for most of the others. There are some we don't do every trip or if there is a big line, but I still think they are valuable. Others I wouldn't waste my park time on like Astro Orbiter or the cars on Main Street (I'm allergic to horses) but for others these may well be worth the wait. I always try to get people to try everything once and if I am going with someone new I would go on any of these but Stitch with them to let them decide for themselves.

    i was never really impressed with the honey i shrunk the kids show. i love the 3-D shows but i think this one is out dated and not worth any kind of wait.
    Keep telling yourself that, darling.

    I agree there is nothing worth waiting for longer then that if I do that is what FP are for.

    I like Toy Story Mania but it is not worth waiting for more then the FP line.
    Just got back. Unless we win the lottery or some long lost rich relative leaves me a bunch of money we won't be back for 5 years.

    I think the Backlot tour is definitley not worth the wait. Who wants to wait over an hour, even when the park is'nt busy, to see the parkinglots and a few discarded props? The only redeeming value is Catastrophe Canyon. I can get the same thrill riding the trams to the main parking lots
    I agree. We went on this with no wait and it was the biggest mistake of the day. We actually got stuck in Catastrophe Canyon for a half hour because the guy who operated it was on a lunch break. NEVER AGAIN.

    Dumbo, Astro Orbitor, and Aladdin's Carpets. Way too long of a wait for a very short ride - and these are the type of ride you can enjoy in your hometown during festivals, etc, not worth wasting time when you've flown to Florida and purchased park tickets and hotel rooms!

    Barnstormer
    Stitch

    EPCOT
