This is quite possibly one of the most annoying attractions in WDW but I don't know that I would want it to be taken out. Sure, it is not exactly thrilling and it is rather outdated but it was at the World's Fair in 1964 and it is a Walt Disney original. Most kids love this attraction and I can tolerate it. This attraction is a big part of Disney history. I wish that another part of Disney history, Carousel of Progress, would stay open. [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img]

Simply put, this is the worst ride/attraction in current existence!! Alright, so I am pushing it but I still don't see what anyone finds even remotely amusing. I don't think nostalgia is a proper reason for keeping a boring and pointless attraction. And the fact that Walt created it is even a better reason to get rid of it. I wouldn't want Disney to be known as the person who created this thing. Shouldn't we get rid of the evidence?? [img]smile.gif[/img] Can someone even explain to me what exactly I am looking at when I ride this thing?? Scary children singing the same song for 15 minutes with nothing different to look at but the exact same doll with different cloths on is all I see. "It's a small world after all!!" AND YOUR POINT!!! It is also funny to note that due to the age of the ride, all the different scenes simply take every single steriotype about that culture and pushes it to the max. Mind you, I love all the other Fantasyland attractions. I even like Snow White! At least that has a story and theme to it. Please, someone tell me what is so great about this waste of space without using the word nostalgia. Thanks.

And the point would be unity...which seems even more appropriate at a time like this than ever before, actually. It's not my favorite ride in the world, either, but I don't see any reason to get rid of it if they're going to keep making the same Dumbo ride over and over again only with a different theme. At least Small World is distinct.

True, unity would be a wonderful theme for an attraction if it was executed correctly. However, most people don't come off It's A Small World feeling inspired or unified. Instead they come off angry they wasted all their time. Side Note: Did anyone notice that the hippo used to be in the water but now it is up on land?

I just want to remind everyone that the topic was not intended to start a debate but to ask the question "Who admits to liking this attraction?" Sharing viewpoints is part of the fun of Intercot and no one has to defend their own opinion.
Okay, let's mosey onward from here.... [img]smile.gif[/img]

[img]graemlins/mickey.gif[/img] I LOVE THIS RIDE [img]graemlins/mickey.gif[/img]
It is not my favorite attraction, but it is an ESSENTIAL part of WDW for me.
And it was the ONLY chice for my daughters' first ride at WDW on their first trip in May. Very simple plan: First we see the Castle, Then we ride IASW, Followed by a Mickey Head Ice Cream. This is the perfect recipe to instill the proper level of Disney magic in their tiny little bloodstreams, trust me, it's a family tradition. Happy to say, they were hooked immediately. And while they love other rides more, Pooh for the baby and COP (that's my girl!) for the first born... they KNOW the drill. Upon our "next" trip, they talk about: Chef Mickey's the night we arrive, then MK for the Castle, IASW and a Mickey Head.
You just gotta.
