One, I can't wait to ride. Two, no way am I going to ride tower again. And yet I find myself strapping in and asking myself why?<<< That's me with Splash. I audibly doubt my sanity all through the queue and probably all through the ride. the first AA Tableau usually does distract me for a bit, though.

Originally Posted By plpeters70 <<DHS is the best, yet I've never heard or read a solid argument against my point of view>> Nor should there be one - your opinion is just as valid as anyone else's. For a short time, Studios was starting to be one of favorite parks (behind EPCOT, of course!!), but lately they seem to have really lost their way there. It's a jumbled mess these days, with a lot of areas that just don't really work - and for God's sake, they really, really need to take that stupid hat down!! With that said, they do have a few really strong attractions there - I just wish they could get the whole park up to same level of quality!

Basically the most romanticized look at the Hollywood of the past, present, and future where movies come alive and you're part of them. At least that's how I feel about the park.

It doesn't mesh.
