    <p>A couple of weeks ago AOL Travel had <a href="Latest-ID-76869.asp">5 Lost Disneyland rides</a> and we asked our readers which they would like back. Today they have 5 lost rides (and attractions) from Walt Disney World. Be sure to check out the link as they have video of all 5. Then come back here and let us know - if it were up to you - which you would bring back to life.</p>

    I would like to see the Jungle Book show back at Animal Kingdom, Millionaire back at DHS, and 20K and MK.

    If it was still around in the same way it was back in the day(and knowing the current FL, it would be), I'd agree.

    But man, when I was a kid that ride was a hoot.

    Not to mention a really good version of the ride still exists at DL. Do any of the other parks still have a Mr. Toad ride?

    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.

    My five favorites that are long gone:

    Horizons
    Journey Into Imagination
    World of Motion
    20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
    If You Had Wings

    Plus I'll throw in Mr. Toad for good measure as well as Snow White's Scary Adventures as it will be heading to Yesterland soon... :-(

    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.

    I would love to have them bring back 20,000 leagues nder the sea, with modern technology. 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.
