Default which attraction would you bring back?

I know this has been asked in the past, but what extinct WDW attraction would you bring back and why? For me, I would bring back Horizons, because I loved the scene with the robot in the kitchen spilling the cats milk all over the floor and the dishes piled in the sink with soap bubbles, and of course the orange smell in the desert. I would also bring back World of Motion, because I loved the scene with the kids stealing the ice from the ice truck, and I would bring back Dreamflight! An incredibly "hoakie" ride, but I don't know if it was the music, or what, but I loved it!! I think it is the nostalgia!!

At EPCOT, I would bring back Horizons and World of Motion...and the original Journey Into Imagination.

At the Studios...the Hunchback of Notre Dame show...it was amazing.

At the MK...the Timekeeper and from way, way back The Mickey Mouse Revue.

It doesn't seem like they've really closed anything at AK yet to want anything brought back.

I really miss the parade at Epcot, Tapestry of Dreams. I have the music on a CD and still love to listen to it.

I agree with Horizons, and would add 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea.

AK- Nothing, yet.

Horizons. I wish I had ridden it more times.

The skyride over the MK. I loved sitting up there and watching the goings on down below. It was a nice break, kind of like TTA but up high. It was also a great way to get across the park.

I'd bring back Horizons too. I never got to ride it. By our fist visit the building was already being ripped down. Hearing everyone talking about it just makes me wish I'd gotten to ride it

I would love to ride Horizons again. Also, the original Journey into Imagination was an absolutely amazing ride. I have nothing but great memories of that. I also agree with Monster Sound Show coming back. Sounds Dangerous got old the first time I experienced it. Monster Sound Show was much more entertaining, and it included audience participation, which was what MGM used to be all about. Plus, Chevy Chase's goofy ignorance and Martin Short's natural comedic presence was a blast. I wish they could change that show back.

I would love to see almost the entire original Futureworld of Epcot brought back in some form. I never felt World of Motion or Horizons was an less outdated than Spaceship Earth. They were educational and fun. and Journey Into Imagination was incredible with Dream Finder. Of course, The Land desperately needs to bring back Kitchen Caberet. "Veggie,veggie, fruit, fruit!"

I would bring back Horizons because it is the one classic attraction I never experienced.

i would love to see the electric light parade back. i agree w/ the original journey into imagination, especially the playground part of it. 20000 lgs under the sea would be at the top of the list to bring back.

445 days 22 hrs 25 min & 20 secs to the next trip!!

I finally got a chance to ride Horizons not long before it was torn down. For some reason, I just didn't get over to that part of Epcot much. (Remember, there was no M:S or TT, so the group of Energy, Horizons and Wonders of Life was pretty quiet)

Too bad there wasn't a way to keep Horizons and get rid of Wonders of Life.

My dad still walks around the house singing that song. He was crushed when he found out it wasn't there anymore. I would also bring back Horizon's.

In MGM I wish they would make the backstage tour as long as it use to be. I don't know if it is because I am older, but it seemed like the tour was really short.

we agree we would also like to see Horizions back in fold at Epcot. But if we had only 1 choice it would be the Huntchback Show at MGM, this is probably the best stage performance show the WDW offerered! here's a thought maybe when WDW imagineers decide to build another theme park it could be nothing but all the extinct rides that were once adorned at all the WDW theme parks! That would be pretty kool huh

I had posted this idea elsewhere, but it fits here too.

I would love to see virtual versions of all the extinct rides. With technology similar to Star Tours, it wouldn't be that hard to do. You could use the space in Innoventions, or maybe the Wonders of Life, and have several ride vehicles. You could even change the rides daily, so all the vehicles would run a particular ride during one day.

Monday you could re-ride Horizons, Tuesday the World of Motion, Wednesday it's Kitchen Kabaret.

The old Disney could live on forever.

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea revamped! Althought now in Disneyland its going to be a Finding Nemo ride, which might be cute, but I miss the excitment of the sharks in the Atlantis scene, and when the Squid attacks your sub.

Also Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Im sorry but Toad Rawks! Why did they pull that one? Boooo hooo
