    I tend to agree. The only thing I like about the Drew Carey thing is that it is a geat place to catch a quick nap. The backlot tour is boring as well.

    Come to think of it, they should move Tower of Terror and Rock N Roller coaster to a different park and just close MGM. The whole place is terrible.
    Enjoying the Magic every year since 1971!

    I would have to say Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse and Stitch. Bring back the old Ailen or do something worthy of Disney!!!!

    I dislike the new Journey into imagination, I wish they would have never changed the orginal !!

    AK--Dinosaur-yes! it freaks me out too much and I won't ride PM--no spinnning for me!

    MK: Tomorrowland speedway needs to go!! Such a huge waste of space!! They could do something so much better there.

    Epcot: Journey into Imagination. Rode it once will never ride it again

    MGM: Drew Carey for sure, just pointless

    AK: I'm not really sure. There really isn't much there, maybe Rafiki Nature Watch needs to be improved. We rode the train out there and then just kind of looked at each other and said is this it??

    One more thing though, I would like to defend Stitch. I am not a huge Stitch fan but I think the attraction is an improvement over Alien Encounter. I think it is pretty cool.

    Unhappy Another vote for Stitch...

    Stitch was both my and my husband's least favorite attraction. The Country Bear Jamboree was a close second. I didn't care for Honey I shrunk the Audience either (least favorite of the 3D movies.) After walking around EPCOT all day, I really wished that Oh Canada had SEATS!!!!

    sitting in that boat, floating through the water while all those little dolls look at me... not my idea of a good time. now its a small world of puppies, that would be cute. puppies dressed up in cute little cultural costumes from all over the globe. now THAT i'd enjoy


    Seconded! Those dolls are totally freaky! We always have to ride it because it reminds mom of when she went as a kid, I am usually the first one clamboring out of that darn boat when its over! I got her to ride it during the halloween party, I'm just glad she didnt notice I put it in with all the creepy rides we did that night!

    Without a doubt it would have to be Stich. I was really confused here and the smell, Maybe I just didn't get it, but don't think I'm going back to it to try either.

    I'm not sure I can definitively name my least favorite attraction, but Stitch's Great Escape! is definitely the most disappointing.

    Alien Encounter was definitely not a favorite, but its replacement is an example of wasted potential. Stitch's Great Escape! is a haphazard quick fix with little thought or regard. Then Disney has the audacity to advertise the show as something new and worthwhile.

    No other spot in the Magic Kingdom is wasted more, except perhaps Ariel's Grotto.

    I'm with most of you it seems in voting for Stich's Great Escape. It is the one ride that my entire family (DH, DS -8 and DD - 6) hated and have vowed to never ride again.

    Thanks for the info about Sounds Dangerous. We've never experienced it and it doesn't sound like something we would like either.

    My wife and I agree on this one. Without a doubt, our least favorite is the Magic Carpets of Aladdin. You might say it's fun for kids, but the MK already had Fantasyland and Toontown plus family attractions, so I don't feel that the MK was lacking attractions for kids. Why do we despise this attraction so much? Here are a few reasons:

    1. It totally ruins the theme of Adventureland. The Agrabah setting feels forced upon the land, and contrasts greatly with the surrounding area. Agrabah's setting is in the desert, yet the attraction is placed smack-dab in the middle of a jungle area that contains plenty of trees and foliage.

    2. It causes traffic bottlenecks in Adventureland where there used to be none. That whole area where the attraction is located used to be an open area that contained tables and chairs and was a nice place to relax.

    3. The hub is too tall. The lamp that sits atop it can be seen from several areas of the park. One view that always aggravates me is from the queue area of Big Thunder Mountain looking back towards Adventureland. I realize that there are high up areas on certain attractions, such as Splash Mountain, that allow guests views of parts of the park that look a little odd due to the viewing height and angle, but it doesn't look too bad for the most part because most of the structures that can be seen look magnificent. However, the lamp looks like it's made of very cheap plastic. So, there is this beautiful view looking down on Frontierland from the Big Thunder Mountain queue except for that eyesore that is part of the skyline.

    4. The mixture of the area music in Adventureland with the attraction music at the Magic Carpets of Aladdin sounds really strange. It doesn't blend well together.

    You may think that we are nitpicking, but we feel that this attraction does nothing to improve the park and is very intrusive given its location. It was just a cheap way to increase park capacity. The money spent on it could have been put to much better use. I must admit that there are other attractions at WDW that are just as or more subpar than the Magic Carpets of Aladdin if they are viewed independently of their surroundings, but there is nothing else that is as out of place, uninspired, and intrusive as the Magic Carpets of Aladdin. The only possible exception to this is Dino-Rama but at least it is self-contained within its own area.

    For me, the Backlot Tour at MGM was the biggest disappointment.

    The "Sounds Dangerous" attraction is pretty lame.

    Both of these need to be replaced . . . . soon!

    Lights, Motors, Action..an utter waste of prime Studios real estate. While I appreciated the skill to do the stunts, there was no excitement, no drama, no story....and it was boring.
