I would love to see it become a Tangled theme too, make the tower replicate the actual tower Rapunzel lived in.

I think that Big Thunder is more intense, and I can get my very coaster-verse mother on that one
Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt Yes, the WDW Space Mountain is especially tame. It starts off great, but it ends up feeling like you're riding the Matterhorn Bobsleds inside of an empty big box store with the light turned off.
