I really wish Disney would start theming the exits, man that looks so plain. At least put some more pictures up on the walls, sheesh!

Hmm, well, I'll prolly give it a shot next trip (I have a feeling I'm going to regret that but whatever lol). Have to agree it'd probably fit way better in the Studios though.

Ugh... one of the things I hated about Stitch's intrusion on tomorrowland was the sign and now they've added a replica right across the causeway. They look like billboards! At least Alien Encounter and Timekeeper had signs that blended with the theming. Disney just keeps losing their sense of theming...the wand, the hat and now these signs that look like autopia billboards... :evil:

Its sad to see the two worst shows in the Magic Kingdom across the street from each other. The lack of success the show is having is really gonna put a strain on Tomorrowland when Space Mountain finally gets rehabbed. Every other SM around the world has been upgraded, and WDW is due for its turn.

It just gives me more incentive to move on down the walk to the better / more interesting attractions.

Is it bad that last night I dreamt that they brought back Timekeeper? It was so exciting. And rather sad when I woke up...

Awww I wish that was true. After reading rdeacon's review, it doesnt look promising at all. I dont like the idea of comedy, There is only so many jokes you can tell that ARENT R Rated lol.

I still havent seen the show so I will give it a test when I'm down there in August but still I know everytime I go in there I will think of Timekeeper.

I do like the idea of the live animation, but I think Crush is way better mainly because it isn't comedy, it's just cute and you NEVER know what the kids will ask usually. In Monsters Inc, it seems like the questions are always the same and less crowd interaction I suppose.

It's just sad that Disney didn't make any improvements. Where's that wow factor?

In fact, when is the last time we've seen a ride that's truly awesome that isn't a thrill ride. (Expedition Everest is great but isn't for "Children of all ages") Something on par with Pirates or Haunted Mansion? Imagine if they did an attraction where ALL the animatronics looked as real as Jack Sparrow? It's time they start dumping as much money as it takes not as little money as it takes.

Well I guess if you wanted to include shows, I would include Lights Motor Stunts but I guess that isnt original ride (from DCP)....I really dont know. They really should leave Magic Kingdom rides alone, so far theyve all been a failure

Nemo has got to be a good retort. Turtle Talk, the Nemo Musical, and even the ride. Now the ride may not be spectacular but it does offer a unique Aquarium view with the characters in a real world setting.

Granted, MK has been very scarce with its successes in Tomorrowland, but I think that some of the stuff is good wholesome family entertainment. Don't forget about the new ride they announced at MGM that will be a 3D buzz lightyear type ride with Toy Story characters. I really do think their successes are still outwaying the failures. Failures just seem so huge because its on a much grander scale.

One ride changeover that I did like in Magic Kingdom specially was Buzz Lightyear, It defnitely have the "re-ride" factor as I always like to try to improve my score.

Oh definitely, I have to ride it over and over every trip, both DL and WDW. I do have to say that I like that one change. But the laugh floor and stitch just need to not be in Tomorrowland.

I remember one time I got the perfect score of 999,999 so every time I go on there, I always try to get near there. I must have hit a hard to hit target
