My DS(9yrs) and my DD(6yrs) hated, and I mean hated the Stitch Escape. They were upset that we had wasted time on this and that it was not one bit scary, only "boring, gross and babyish." Their words not mine.

Sort of a Mission:Space Lite, guests could be passengers on a ride to a space station.

That the folks who created it, greenlighted it and supervised it all still get paychecks from the Mouse.

Originally Posted By Mickey4President I didn't hate it, but I didn't like it enough to stand in line to do it again. At the start the noise and darkness terrified my DS8 (6 at the time), but he was fine after a few moments. He loves Stitch, so if he just really really has to ride it on our next trip (and I can't bribe him out of not riding it), then we will ride it.

Certainly the imagineers could come up with something a little more creative and enticing than this. Perhaps they were sick the day it was created and their 8yr old sons and nephews came up with the plans, including the smelly burp-o-rama?
