Originally Posted By Kevin Isn't it interesting that the top 3 rides are dark rides...assuming you count TOT as a dark ride. Then, we have a nighttime show, an audioanimatronics movie and audioanimatronics water ride and then an AK animal attraction. These 7 attractions are what makes WDW so great. All are great inventions. Not a rollercoaster in the bunch (but no spinners either).

Originally Posted By daffy1 I wounder if anyone high up at Disney has looked at this. I would like to hear what they have to say about the top 5 rides at WDW voted by fans and people the go there. You think if I was high up at Disney and saw this infomation you would build one these kinds of rides. But they are building two spiners and a rollercoaster. that does seam rite to me.
