Which all just goes back to a very important tidbit that folks are choosing to overlook - I was right. Let it burn, let it linger, let it eat away at your soul - I don't particularly care, but let it be known that I was right. Right right right. Me me me. Quoth the Simpsons "Ha-ha!" Oh, and "I told you so."

Got it?

I just think it's misplaced - it should be in kiosks in the post show, not featured as the ending of a ride that, other than the ending, is pretty spectacular. The old ending was MUCH more interesting than the current one. Even the Tomorrow's Child original ending was better.

I really thought it was lame, though.
