    Default OK then, what is the WORST queue at WDW?

    Just curious as to what y'all think. Remember, what you think of the actual ride has no bearing on your answer.

    I'd have to say Dumbo or Tomorrowland Speedway

    Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.
    The Speedway is bad, too.
    Peter Pan queue is deceptive...with the way it kind of bends...

    By worst I take it you mean by the experience not the time or unexpected time you spend in the que line.
    By far the worst as far as experience is the Kilimanjaro Safari que at Animal Kingdom. Well I should say it is the worst when it is hot and humid but then it is hot and humid in Orlando 3/4 of the year. lol The majority of the que is outside twisted through the trees and vegetation but a lot of sun still makes it through and the heat and humidity is almost unbearable. Why they build any ride now without an indoor air conditioned que is beyond me. I understand the whole atmosphere for the ride but geesh make the air conditioned que line building look like an old run down hut or store or something instead of making us suffer in the heat and humidity.

    I also am assuming you mean the worst themed and not the longest ...

    I would vote for Philharmagic. It's like a bunch of blue curtains hung around with a few little decorations hung up. Quite lame, if you ask me.

    If we're talking as of right now...then it's Dumbo. There's just nothing to it save for those odd clown thingies and mirrors for youngsters to get distracted by and slow the line down.

    Tomorrowland speedway queue gets my vote. But the attraction itself also gets my vote for the most lame attraction at WDW.

    Agreed. And it's always a ridiculously long line for the attraction within. Love it, but won't wait more than 20 minutes for it. Not without a better queue.

    OMG ~ not only a long line, but painfully institutional looking Even from the Fastpass side ~ so unDisney, IMO.

    It feels like most queues in Fantasy Land were not given much thought. About the only one I can tolerate with any length of time (but rarely have to) is It's a Small World. At least you can cool down fairly quickly once you get in.

    At Epcot I dislike the winding, twisting turns of Nemo. I also get disoriented walking through that queue. 3 Amigos is lame. If that wait is much more than 5min, it usually means the ride is down.

    My least favorite queues are Test Track and Winnie the Pooh, both mostly because of the sounds. I start getting a headache after just a few minutes of the banging and clanging in Test Track and the constantly repeated "Ta ta for now!" in Pooh!

    I also agree with those who said Peter Pan...what a looooong, boring queue to wait in (even though it is one of my favorite rides in MK! )

    Is Backlot tour a ride or a show? If you consider it a ride, it gets my vote ... multiple rows of inclined concrete and no breeze is not fun.
    If not a ride, then I would go with Tomorrowland Speedway ... the exhaust fumes

    Most unimaginative: Peter Pan, tied with Spaceship Earth

    Most ANNOYING: Test Track

    Most boring: Tomorrowland Rockets, because you can't even watch the ride while you are waiting.

    Peter Pan for sure! It moves so slowly for a continuous moving ride.

    Now, in defense of Soarin', it used to be better when they had actual photos with trivia questions on the big screens. Now they're kind of post-modern landscape artwork. I have no idea why they did that. It's one of those changes that, to me, defy explanation. It wasn't a question of money. Why change it?

    Snow White at MK....I remember standing in that line in 95o heat, it was awful.

    Of course, that's followed by It's a Small World...that music

    Peter Pan has a deceptively long, hot, slow moving queue.

    Gotta agree with you that one -yikes - bang bang bang and I'm ready to throw myself in front of the next car.

    Speaking of cars.... my next least favorite would be Tomorrowland Speedway. Noisy and toxic beyond belief.
