Obviously, SSE is the RUNAWAY favorite... 6 out of 13 ballots listed it first, it's the only attraction to appear on all 13 ballots, and it never appeared lower than 3rd!

is the Land on there twice? how coem there is no love the the living seas? or even the new one is pretty cool

[spaulo]

"Listen to the Land" and "Living with the Land" are apparently different... people voted for them separately, I think. I may be confused, in which case, the 12 points of LttL would go to LwtL, which would actually bump it to fourth.

And the "Journey to Seabase Alpha" is the old Living Seas attraction

Here we go:

1) Spaceship Earth
2) Journey Into Imagination (Original)
3) World of Motion
4) Horizons
5) Soarin'
6) Living with the Land
7) Test Track
8 ) Maelstrom
9) Journey Into Imagination w/Figment (Current)

Re: the Listen to the Land/Living with the Land thing - I think it officially changed names when they took the song part out. Whether or not people are really voting for the same thing or old version vs. new version you'd have to ask them though. I really don't remember how different the two were, apart from the song going away. >_>

My top ten (not as easy as I thought it'd be to do!):

1) Spaceship Earth
2) Horizons
3) (Original) Journey Into Imagination
4) Illuminations
5) Mission:Space
6) The America Adventure
7) Living with the Land
8 ) Maelstrom
9) Wonders of China
10) Test Track

Haven't been there since Soarin' opened but I imagine that might mess up my list when I finally get to see it.

[GhostHost]

1. Spaceship Earth
2. Illuminations
3. The American Adventure
4. Horizons
5. El Rio Del Tiempo
6. Journey into Imagination (original)
7. Living with the Land
8. Maelstrom
9. Mission: Space
10. Test Track

I really am not sure about my order here but these are the first ones that came to mind. Spaceship Earth will always be at the top for me. It's the anchor of Epcot and just a little world in and of itself. It's normally the first and last thing I ride at WDW period.

From what I remember, they are virtually the same ride. When the ride reopened as Living With Land, the song was removed and the opening Symphony of the Seed scene was replaced with the storm scene. I also believe that the original attraction was entirely hosted by a cast member.

When I made my list, I considered them to be the same attraction, however, it's fine with me if you guys want to list them as seperate attractions. If that is the case, I'll change my vote to Living with the Land.

[spaulo]

Actually, when I update the Top 25, I am going to mix votes together. I'll use "Living with the Land" in the list since that is the current name of the *essentially* unchanged attraction.

[yodiwan1]

ok, cool, i really thought i was alwasy living with the land, with the song being lsiten to the land. And i never realized teh living seas atrractio was named journey to sea base alpha. I just bought a book from when EPCOT CENTER opened and it just talks about a futre pavillion called the living seas.

I believe Living with the Land and Listen to the Land are different as in 2005 refrub. The original with the cast member boat captain and the groovy song, the latter with the track boat and no fun song.

4 of the top 10 are extinct. Wow... too bad the internet "geeks" don't have more pull - we'd have some favorites back.

Extinct: #2, #3, #5, #10 (assuming people didn't mean Ellen's Energy Adventure).

[Captain Schnemo]

OK, I'll play.

1. Horizons
2. Seabase Alpha (the pavilion itself, not the lame and pointless ride)
3. Journey into Imagination
4. El Rio del Tiempo no Ducko
5. The Stilt Birds (they walked around World Showcase terrorizing children)
6. Magic Journeys
7. Living with the Land (the old song was cool, but the rain forest scene is a winner)
8. Monorail
9. Spaceship Earth
10. The American Adventure

Ranking these was incredibly difficult, and on any given day, the order would probably have been different. Horizons and the Living Seas without Nemo are the one-two punch no matter what, however. Figment is a solid #3. After that, it's all a jumble.

Also the Japan pavilion would have been in there, but it's actual "attraction" is that little museum which is not so wonderful (but has extremely refreshing air conditioning). Terrific food, but that doesn't count in this game.

Eventually I just used the tactic of which things would I want to see in what order right now, if I had the chance. Considering my Top 6 no longer exist, and Test Track might be #1 on my Bottom 10, you can see why I haven't been in a while.

Have not rode Soarin yet, so...

[yodiwan1]

i dont feel the monorail is an epcot attraction at all. If you don't have to board the ride in the park how can it be considered an attraction of that park? thats like saying the tram that takes the guests to teh parking lot is an attraction. Don't get me wrong, i love the monorail, i just dont think its an attraction of epcot...
