The one at DLR is a ride like Dinosaur at AK. They use the same ride vehicles, and I belive even have the same track layout, but with an indy theme instead of dino's

Space mountain really puts you in the mood for that ride. TofT is neat for all the detail. My favorite though is inside the barn at Splash. It would be neat to have a rec room decorated like that.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that Indy opened first at Disneyland Resort. I believe it opened before Animal Kingdom was built in Florida.

What a tough decision :mickey: ok, I'll decide this way. At the MK it would have to be Splash Mountain or the Pirates. At Epcot O Canada, so beautiful, hard to believe it was all manmade, amazing. Tower of Terror at the Studios, it transforms you to a different place and time, and I love the music, it gives me chills! And AK would have to be Its Tough to be a Bug, or the safari, has anyone seen the baby elphant statue? I WANT ONE! I think you only see it if you have a really long queue. Well, I guess I didn't make a decision after all, there all so amazing!

I absolutely love The Seas with Nemo and Friends queue. The way you go inside, through the beach, under the water, and up to the clams is great, and so relaxing. A perfect break for a hot day. The fishing bobber on the ceiling in one of the later rooms is genius.

All of the queues are great - the attention to detail of the folks at Disney is incredible.

My favorite has to be Tower of Terror...it's so beautiful and yet creepy all at the same time.

Journey to the Center of the Earth at Tokyo DisneySea. The elevator from one queue to the other is the bomb! :shock:

I think when it comes to theming and keeping you distracted, Kilimanjaro Safari does a good job as does the Great Movie Ride...having short films playing is a nice distraction, even if the video is "edutainment" :D

I would probably say Pirates, but even after thinking about it for a while, I'm not really sure. When I start thinking about cool queues, I start thinking about Spider-Man at Islands of Adventure and then my mind starts wandering.

Anyway, while it's not nearly the best, I wanted to give props to that huge painted mural in the Maelstrom queue. The endless switchback sucks, and the way the line sometimes spills over and creates a mess outside sucks, but that mural is pretty cool. Gives you something nice to look at when you're stuck going back and forth and back and forth and back...

Yes mural is one of those amazing things that doesn't get the props it should. Especially the viking with the Mickey Ears.
