I actually once had a CM offer to let me do the Star Wars ride (the old one) without the movement. But alas, it is the movie that also gets me. But I can handle the 360 movies.

I was sad to find that the main street trainers has neglected to inform last fall's CPs of its existence in trash cans. Sad when me the EHH guy could take care of Code Vs better than the locals...

5. Stich's Great Escape. Ruined the Alien encounter.
4. Ellen's Universe of Energy. The dinosaurs were fine on their own.
3. Mission to Mars. Please that was sappy in the 1990's.
2. The abridged Backlot Studio Tour. It was better with the Golden Girls house.
1. Disney Hollywood Studios. It was better named Disney MGM Studios.

Voban is still in use. I was in the WDWCP in 1991! :eek: Smelled bad and the use for vomit was not to appealing.

The other day I saw a drum of the stuff backstage. Said on it "aromatic" something or another. Aromatic is right, you can smell the stuff a mile away when it's a big Code V. At least it is better than the stuff it covers.

Does the latest version feature a flying Newt?

Same way Mickey's Toon Town Fair was a land. (Of course, it's not anymore...) Pocahontas used to be back there too. Obviously, no one misses that attraction... :-)

And CMM's a great place for special events.

At the 2011 Magic & Merriment event, we had dinner back there after AK closed.

There was more than enough room to fit all 200 of us there, only one exit (which is close to the park exit), and a bathroom facility. Worked out great. I do admit I think it was only the third time I was back there...

Neither one was worth the space to write about it, in my mind!
4. Ellen's Universe of Energy. The dinosaurs were fine on their own.
The problem with that is that the dinosaurs are only about 3 minutes of the entire ride (if that much). Ellen's presence greatly enhanced the rest of the 37 minutes, or whatever.
3. Mission to Mars. Please that was sappy in the 1990's.
I'm not sure here if you are retroing into the past or referring to Mission Space. Mission to Mars...was sappy, but I have to disagree with that opinion if you are referring to Mission Space.
2. The abridged Backlot Studio Tour. It was better with the Golden Girls house.
Can't say I disagree with this, but it never was much even with the GG house. If memory serves me Disney MGM didn't even come into existence until Golden Girls was off the air or almost done it's run. It was hard to get enthused by a bunch of things built to look like something famous.
1. Disney Hollywood Studios. It was better named Disney MGM Studios.
Why? What difference does the name make?

Random comments just for fun! :cool:

Oh, jeez. I can think of a few...

1. The ride in the Mexico pavilion.
2. The France film is so insanely outdated, the horrible fashion reminds me of my childhood in the 80's. The landscape shots are beautiful, but the ones of people...yikes.
3. Country Bear Jamboree.
4. The Nemo ride at Epcot.
5. Captain EO. I know I should duck lest people throw things at me, but I didn't like it when it came out the first time, and still don't like it.

Welcome to SGT, lucretziathevagabond. The marsupials should be by shortly, as should the beverage committee with your complementary refreshments. I suggest saving those until AFTER the safety spiel.
