I really liked the People Mover, too. It was fun to go through the attractions and listen to the narrator. After comes the Skyway because it gave such a great view from above.

I voted for the People Mover, but anything on those tracks I miss. Which other than the People Mover is Rocket Rods. I know it wasn't the most popular of attractions, but it was fun to me. But you gotta love the Tron segment of the People Mover!

Glad to see that I am not alone in my love of the people mover.

Now that Disneyland/Anaheim has so many good reasons to move people around, I wish that they would make that a technology of "todayland" and install it in and around the resort.

As an east coaster, I've only been to DLR once when I was 9 years old. Innerspace was such a unique attraction, and there was never anything like it at WDW (or anywhere else). Sadly :cry: , I only rode it once. I also loved the People Mover. However, I get to ride the TTA at WDW when I'm there. I don't get to do anything that even comes close to Innerspace.

Why can't the PeopleMover come back? I mean, it's not a matter of time or people - I mean, there are Imagineers that are desperately trying to find work so they're not fired, space is not an issue, the track is already there (possibly eliminating a couple million bucks or so) - so that leaves money.

What a surprise. :roll:

Perhaps the People Mover was not accessable? I am fairly certain that is why the Skyway and the Sleeping Beauty Dioramas are gone -- they were inaccessable by wheelchair.
That may have something to do with the problem, but wouldn't Rocket Rods have been affected the same way? Even though that attraction has also been retired to Yesterland, it was for reasons other than ADA compliance.

PM followed by skyway. Both relaxing, though I have to admit -- I was a little kid on both. I miss PM now since I enjoy the one at WDW.

I have fond childhood memories of Adventure Thru Inner Space (even have an original attraction poster). But the Parking Lot item in the vote made me pause and say, Oh yeah, I remember when I'd arrive later in the evening and they let me creep all the way up to the very front. Nothing beats parking right next to the entrance turnstiles!!!

Country Bear Jamboree, especially the Vacation Hoedown. I loved when the bear band sang "Ghostriders in the Sky." At the end of the song, the band, while the platform moved backwards, would hold the last note and sing to the sky, and then the thunder and lightning would start. It gave me goosebumps every time! And of course, it was fun to clap along and laugh at the silly humor. (On a side note, I have not once gotten goosebumps on Winnie the Pooh, nor have I clapped or laughed. Not bashing the ride, but the impact of the new attraction versus the old show isn't the same on any level whatsoever.)

I think we need to send these stats to Disney so they can get the People Mover back into DL!!!!

With 1061 views on this topic and only 31 votes at this point, I think we would need to encourage more folks to vote.
Remember you don't have to post to vote you can just vote!
