Disneyland ( Theme Park )
A
I’m not gonna go into why Disneyland is ridiculously awesome, but here is the breakdown I wrote my friends in an email right when we got home:
1. Splash Mountain 9.7
I think on a hotter day this would’ve been more apparent, but I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt.
2. Space Mountain 9.5
This ride is killer. Nice length, no bullshit. Maybe one more thing big happening would make it a winner.
3. Indiana Jones 9.4
Really solid line, great JRD video beforehand, and great, unique ride. 10 more feet on that last drop and I’m in love.
4. Fantasmic! 9.3
I really enjoy projected water effects, classic Disney characters, and sappy good vs. evil conflicts. Three Strikes.
5. Finding Nemo 8.8
Nothing super spectacular, but just a change of pace and really well done effects made me happy.
6. Matterhorn 8.7
Liked this one. Could’ve used one more run to form a higher opinion. Sort of a basic rollercoaster on a bobsled.
7. Pheening Ariel 8.6
Really nailed this one. I can’t imagine they were going for anything else.
8. Mad Tea Party 8.6
This was a good length and surprisingly fun. I felt terrible afterwards though.
9. Haunted Mansion 8.5
I think this might actually be a low rank but there are so many good things. This was just solid all around.
10. Thunder Mountain 8.3
This one disappointed me because I had such big memories. Pretty good all told though. Worst Mountain by a mile.
11. Peter Pan 8.2
Really enjoyable, if childish, storybook ride that made me smile. Quick enough but still cohesive.
12. Star Tours 8.0
That girl was overrated but the ride was underrated. Pretty fun. Bigger jolts would’ve made this great.
13. Pirates of the Caribbean 7.4
I liked this. Pretty good overall. One out of place drop at the beginning and then easy sailing from there.
14. Dumbo 7.2
Very enjoyable in a creepy way. Liked this way too much I think.
15. Buzz Lightyear Blasters 6.9
Pretty nice. I’ve seen similar at Universal “MiB”. Kregg sabotaged me. Pictures were cool at the end.
16. Foodie 6.5
Solid cat. Did we find out if those people owned it?
17. Pinocchio 6.1
Wait a minute - he doesn’t become a real boy at the end!!! Unbelievable.
18. Snow White 5.8
This was Snow White: Memento version.
19. Autopia 5.5
Pretty boring. You should be able to ram people. And bad for the environment. Zzzzzz.
20. Tiki Tiki Room 2.9
This would be last save that Pineapple Whip. Give me a break with that one face.
21. That Duck 2.1
It was a duck.
22. Jungle Cruise 0.0
They should hand out copies of this email and they’d get more laughs. BOyoyoyoyoyoyING.
**THINGS THAT I’M ACTUALLY MAD WE MISSED NOW THAT I LOOK THEM UP**
1. Sleeping Beauty Castle Experience
2. Innovations
3. Toon Town
4. That pigeon
