Disney's biggest blunder?

While I don't like the Stitch for AE trade (a litte Stitch goes a loooooong way for me), my vote for biggest blunders all center around Epcot:

1) Horizons - not much more to say. This is really a missed attraction, and was one of my all-time favorites.
2) Journey Into Imagination - How much more can they mess it up? Bring back the original ASAP.
3) World of Motion - Not sure of the feasibility, but I would have liked them to keep WOM and add Test Track to it. Best of both worlds.

The removal of Mr. Toad's Wild Ride from WDW.

It still exists in CA, right? I hope so.

Yeah, we still got it. What is in place of Mr. Toad in WDW?

Yeah Winnie the Pooh replaced real classics on both coasts... Mr. Toad in Florida, and the Country Bears in Anaheim

Croaker, you sure know how to kick a man when he's down. The Jamboree is a classic attraction.

Don't make me sic Rufus on you.

I agree with what many of you are saying. I think they messed up the Figment ride badly. Also, it's pretty well known I hate the Stitch ride. Simply hate it. One good animatronic does not a good ride make.

But I was wondering. Can DisneyQuest be considered a blunder? I mean, it's never really packed is it? And now they are talking about closing it down.

What about the big blunder of deciding to paint the castle up to look like a B-day cake? I have heard many people say that was quite the blunder.

P.S. For the record, I love the Country Bears as well.

I've never actually been inside DisneyQuest, but I heard it was pretty fun. But the ads they have dont make it look too appealing. How much is it to get in? I know cast members get a tiny discount.

I never got to experience Country Bears in Disneyland, so I'm glad that at least WDW has it. The Winnie the Pooh in Disneyland is a blunder as well.

Did DisneyQuest once, wanted to do it again this summer when I was there but coudn't justify the price with the g/f. I think it was around 35 dollars each at the counter.

I personally think Walt's biggest mistake was smoking.

Sorry for being kind of cold, just he would have lived longer...

Stitch wins this award. I was so disappointed with this attraction. I will never waste time on Stitch again!
