    2) Space Mountain
    -The ride is great, but the exit queue needs revamping. Who wants to see the mechanical boy who USED to be holding binoculars staring you down? There's no more audio there, and it's wasted space. Put SOMETHING in there for those of us who remember what it used to be.

    Add to the list...

    Although likely then it will be closed when I am there, and that is a drag...it really needs it, I hope it is a 'major' refurb, not a once over....close it for as long as is needed to return it to it's proper place

    I think the ride has deteriorated to where it's now way too rough. Just compare it to DL's refurbed ride - smooth as glass!

The work done on IASW was minimal and added little to the overall experience since a nice new queue set hardly makes up for the dated look of the ride's set. They need to add the same special effects from DLP. Peter and Snow are deplorable. Just ride TDL or DLP's versions to see how much nicer these rides could be. Jungle Cruise.. well, HKDL's version elevated it to a higher degree, so bring on the fiery finaly and add new AAs and special effects. And have only male skippers.

    I was following you real well until you got to this. What does this have to do with refurbing? And other than "that's the way it used to be," why is it important to the storyline?

    Do you agree? Should they refurbish your newer Small World to have that authentic dank smell?

    Or have they just od'd on chocolate or something....hmmm.
