Interesting. There aren't a lot of Small World lovers.

When I was a ride operator in college we used to send annoying/rude people through twice.

It's also the ride most cast members don't want to get stuck working.

Or any of the new rides of the last 10 years or so.
Mission space
Soarin
Kali River Rapids
Rock N Roller Coaster
Buzz Light Year
Toy Story Mania.
I know I missed some

They also continually update rides. Recently they have redone, Pirates ,Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain, Test Track and Big Thunder Mountain. There were plenty of rehabs on smaller rides too. Shoot they have built 2 new parks in the last 20 years. It's kind of hard to bee old mechanical rides old when the park opened in 1999

It's cheesy and silly and I've taken a few people through just because I knew they would hate it. They didn't disappoint. I think it may be because it's the first Disney ride I ever went on.

I prefer the mechanical rides to the newer ones. I also dislike when rides are redone, but I'm a very sentimental person. I hate when rides are redone to be politically correct.

I don't do motion very well. Once when I was a child I got stuck on the top of a ferris wheel for 3 hours and I remember that nightmare well. I've never mentioned it to my kids cause I didn't want to project my fear onto them.

When we went to Orlando, I barfed on the kiddie tea cups ride. I told you I don't do motion very well!

I agree, I'm not talking about updates like the PC one they did on Pirates a while back.. Some have been for the better some not so much. I like the updates to Spaceship Earth, The Haunted Mansion and Test Track . I hate what they did with the ride In Mexico though.
I hope they leave the Carousel of Progress alone, except to maybe make some minor changes to the one section that is supposed to be the future
