Originally Posted By magic0214 I would like to see Horizons back. I wouldn't mind the original Living Seas too. Mostly because when someone asks me what the weather was like yesterday I could say "It rained, and rained, and rained." I would like to see the Jungle Book show back at Animal Kingdom, Millionaire back at DHS, and 20K and MK.

I'd want 20K back because the lagoon added a lot to the Fantasyland landscape, and not to mention the Nautilus is a beautiful piece of art design.

Originally Posted By brotherdave Nostalgia, I guess... I loved the song and the "simplicity" of the format. I certainly wouldn't put it as one of the best experiences ever at WDW, but I do have some fond memories of it!
Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer >>>I'll never understand the love for If You Had Wings. It was so lame.<<< I never went on it, but I have heard that the effect was akin to the TC ending to SSE. Video imagery....EVERYWHERE. And the fact that it was quirky, and kitschy, and Disney without having a single character helps, too. And remember, this was the 70's.

That would be awesome as long as they make it a family ride instead of a thrill ride. My children are adults and they still talk about it.
