Since this caught on after all, I'll keep adding them. Remember to do your own ranking before attacking other people. ;)

Pirates of the Caribbean Image
Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye Image
The Haunted Mansion Image
The Enchanted Tiki Room Image

Winnie the Pooh Image


Image Excellent attraction that should be experienced more than once.
Image Great attraction that you have to do at least once.
Image Good attraction that you should try and do, but don't worry too much if you don't make it.
Image Decent attraction that you should do if you have a chance, but shouldn't go out of your way to do.
Image Horrible attraction that should be avoided at all costs.


Based on enjoyment, theme, wait time, queue enjoyment and area relevence.
