I think the ride would have been much better had they put in more anamatronics and just installed moving cars like SSE (forget the proper name for them). At this point I would hope there are plans to put this so called ride out of it's misery.

And while some individual parts are truly great ... the scale of many of the sets for example ... as a whole the attraction doesn't really work. And the film montage, updated last about 18 months ago, is definitely weak especially as an ending. But I'm still glad it's there. It beats a 2-3 minute thrill ride.

It was cute once, but I wouldn't want to do that everytime I rode.
