I've never riden the MK version again!!!<<< I've only been once to WDW and the MK in general was a disappointment for me. It was just not as beautiful as DLP, especially Fantasyland. Tomorrowland didn't look good either, but SM, one of my favorite rides in Paris, was a total failure for me. It felt more like a coaster for chldren than a journey into space.
