I liked the idea in the Slow Rides Surivior Game about doing defunct rides. I don't know about you but I haven't ridden many of these (I've done Mr. Toad's and 20k Leagues in DL, but never in WDW). Since most of us haven't ridden these, just vote based on which one you'd least like a chance to ride or to be brought back.

I never rode Alien Encounter, but all of my friends who went to WDW as kids say it was absolutely terrifying. That's not to say that they like Stitch's Great Escape, but they said if Alien Encounter were still there, they wouldn't ride it because they were so scared the first time.

This is a tough one for me since I don't remember much about the rides during my trips to WDW in my younger days. I'm thinking I probably wouldn't have like Alien Encounters back then. I'm also taking another off of the Swan Boats since Kris and mrhub both dinged it.

The best thing about Alien Encounter was it's preshow. The ride, while not that scary to me, would terrify children... it really wasn't a Disney ride, but I kinda liked it.. it was 100X better then the ride in it before: Mission to Mars.

I have to ding the Swan Boats

Plus The Skyway, Mr. Toad's and 20,000 Leagues remind me of my first Disney trip when I was a kid.

LOVED "If You Had Wings!" Even though it was a very slow dark ride, at one point, it made you feel like you were going really fast. I loved that! And I can still hear the song in my head!

Hated AE. Glad it's gone.

I'll ding Mickey Mouse Review. Just because no one has and I don't remember it.

I am going to ding If you had wings. It was gone before my family ever went to MK so I never rode it but its leaving eventually made space for Buzz Lightyear Ranger Spin which one of my family's favorite.

Yes, I remember Mission to Mars.. the ride that tried to push the seat up your butt. Seriously. It was supposed to be a simulated space capsule to mars.. same round seating system.

As the capsule left the planet, it tried to 'simulate' gravity's pull of you being pulled down into your seat by pushing your seat up...totally uncomfortable and I felt like I should call the police to tell them where the bad man touched me.....

Had to take out the swan boats... Never rode it but it is probably the least appealing to me. I'm gonna call it now I think Mr. Toads Wild Ride will be the survivor!

Gotta ding one off Leagues. It was THE most uncomfortable ride for anyone over 4 feet tall. Plus it had atrocious load times.

I'm taking one from Skyway. I kind of remember 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (I would have been under 4 ft tall back them). From what I read about If You Had Wings, I think I would have liked it. I can't bring myself to take a point away from something with Mickey Mouse in the name.

20k Leagues is losing a point, cause I can ride it in DL.

Sorry, Mickey Mouse Revue. That's the only one I never did or at least do not remember. Alien Encounter was outstanding because it was so different and scary. This is wdwfgu after all! If You Had Wings was great. 20,000 Leagues was dull as I recall and am surprised with such limited space at DL that they haven't put some thing else there. I will be out at DL this week so I might go in just to ride it quickly for old time sake if I can get away from a trade show long enough.

My big disappointment at MK last week was walking from It's a Small World which I reluctantly rode toward the Mansion that the chalet up on the hill that used to be the loading area for the skyway has been demolished as a part of the Fantasyland expansion. I found that to be a loss because I always like to look at it for a minute or so and remember back to when it ran. I hope that whatever replaces it will make up for it.

After watching the YouTube video of If You Had Wings the song alone is what did it for me! Had to extinguish its torch and tell it, "You are not the survivor."
