Instead of dumping the ride why not spruce it up with some new effects? What Imagineer wouldn't want the challenge of a re-do of this classic ride that makes it into a more vibrant and well-attended attraction? Or perhaps, why not bring back Toad to WDW? Never could understand why a ride that seems to be so popular at DLR wouldn't be so at WDW (although the original WDW world version did not ever have the charm of the DLR version).

Because that would MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE for them

Originally Posted By CoolDisneyFan Boo on this. They should keep this ride. I like it, and my kids like it. And most of the time it is the shortest wait of everything in fantasyland. I am not happy about this. I've not been happy about much of anything lately and chose not to spend the $5 grand to go down there this year.

Unlike all the others--which focus too much on the wicked queen--the Florida version told most of Snow White's story from beginning to end. And it wasn't in such terrible shape as some people want us to believe. It's in better shape than Peter Pan's dark ride.

Originally Posted By magic0214 I will be there the Saturday before riding it all day long. Nothing else, just Snow White!

The Evil Queen is much more fun than that bland Snow White. Also, if I want the story told to me, I'll watch the movie. The dark rides should aspire to do something other than regurgitate the movie's story.

Something has to have the shortest line. SW in DL also tends to have one of the shortest waits but there is no sign of removing it. Removing even a unpopular attraction will probably put even more strain on long waits like Pan.
