Disney Survivor Game: Slow Rides

Some of you may remember our highly opinionated Disney Survivor games, like this one. Time to resurrect the fun! (We may have to do reboots of some of the old topics for all of our new friends!)

For now, let's rank the slow rides, or non-thrill rides, if you will. Maybe our next round can be Fantasyland rides. I hope you don't disagree too much with my choices below. Rules are, copy the list, and take a point off the one you least like, and we'll see what is left standing. Feel free to offer an opinion about your choice, too.

I'm taking one from Spaceship Earth. It's alright but not one I have to ride every trip.

Ellen's Energy Adventure gets the axe from me. Been there done that and once was way more than enough.

I'll take one off Living with the Land just to be different. I sort of get a kick out of Ellen.

I'm surprised by some of the answers so far. I'm actually more likely to go ride Ellen than GMR right now, so I'm going to ding GMR. (I think I'm in the minority on that one).

Ack! I love this game even though I always seem to screw it up.

I've got to put the final nail in Ellen's coffin.

I am going to take one away from Space Ship Earth. The only reason we ride it is because of it being the iconic symbol of Epcot. Put it in a square building and we would skip it.

This is disturbing on many levels. I Googled it. Interesting! But no clue.

I asked Joe if he knew about it, and he says we rode it once our first time there and it was so cold. I remember nothing about it and don't even remember seeing signs for it. At. All!

I shall take this time to reflect. And reevaluate my worthiness....

MicRac, Chuckers and JeffC all took off the MMR so i make it should be 2, and I'm going todrop it as well. I love Donald and this ride just doesn't do him justice.

I got to knock the Land, we didn't go on that for years. Just started going again, so it didn't hold our attention.

Given that this supposed Mexican River Ride has tarnished my reputation and standing, I have no other choice but to put in the final nail....

I think Joe is thinking Maelstrom. I remember that and it was cold.

After much reflection, I have decided World Showcase is my weak spot. So in April I will make a considerable effort to get to know you, WS! Then maybe I can hold my head high again on these boards. laugh

As much as I love the People Mover, Spaceship Earth is something ive been riding since I was a weee one. So got to take one off the People Mover, but LOVE both.

I really like both rides. I am taking one from Spaceship Earth just because we will sometimes skip that one but never do we skip the People Mover. In fact we now make sure we ride it at least twice a trip. Once during the day and once at night.
