Perhaps, Manncab, but the house (exterior AND ride) itself is so much better at DL...

ok, you want specific pictures from the queue. The ones I posted are just general pics. People say the Land Pavillion and leading up to Soarin looks like an air terminal. I prefered the old look. Guess I am just old school EPCOT.

Haunted Mansion

I've always enjoyed the line at the Haunted Mansion, the grave stones are entertaining and I like the building's facade.

Tower of Terror, The Great Movie Ride, Space Mountain, and Mission: SPACE have the best ones in my opinion.
Haunted Mansion, Rockn' Rollercoaster, and Star Tours have pretty good ones too.

Star Tours and Test track were pretty good,

I know this isnt the forum but the Phantom manor in Paris is my
favorite queue, with the gazebo and that whole area like a court yard,

As said before, when the queues are done right they are amazing. I too love Space Mountain and Splash moutain. And for Nostalgia I love Pirates and Mansion, and even The Great movie ride.

They are all pretty cool in their own way, some just stand out a heck of a lot more than others.

I agree with Star Tours. It's almost disappointing when the line is short and I don't get to hear "I've Been Working on the Same Droid".

In DL, it seems like you never have to actually wait in the front room of the Star Tours queue any more... you miss out on all of C-3PO's and R2-D2's banter and back-and-forth... I like a short line as much as the next guy, but I remember being mightily entertained by the ST queue as a kid.

Soarin' in DW isn't ANYTHING like that. It's actually a pretty sterile, but very large queue with massive pictures of California and triva the rotates occasionally.

As for the Land, they did change it but not so that the whole thing looks like an airport. Just the entrance to Soarin (that also serves as a guest services desk for backlot tours of The Land).

Here's some pics I snapped during a special preview we got into:

Land 1
Land 2
Soarin' Entrance


The only I have to comment on is the gawdawful carpet, which looks like the Land threw up breakfast all over it. I guess it's good for spills, but it's hard on the eyes. Soarin is tucked well away from the rest, in the location where Food Rocks used to be.

Food Rocks, you will be missed. :)
