I'm going home! I have questions

Thanks for linking that post! I should add that blurb of “things that are different” to the Disneyland Genie+ thread. I’ll do that now …

Ha ha! I’ll put it in the lead post too. :blush:

I did already see this one but since DLR was our first home we already have VERY STRONG opinions on what is better there :wink::rofl:

I expanded the Disneyland vs. WDW comparison section:

Practically everything? :grin:

:rofl: yeah it’s probably a shorter list to say the things that are better in WDW!

Tron Lightcycle Run
Flight of Passage
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind

There, done. :innocent:

:rofl: I was thinking more their counterparts.

Castle
HM (unless it’s the Holiday overlay)
Peter Pan (if you have to wait an hour for a dark ride you might as well have cute stuff to look at)
Monorail (it actually serves a function in FL beyond saving you a few steps) I’m old enough to remember when it took you to the front of DLH!!
Dumbo

Dumbo? Really? I can see your case for the others although I don’t necessarily agree. I think the castle is bigger in WDW but not necessarily better. I prefer our quaint little cottage of a castle, but know my opinion is the minority.

Astro Orbiter is probably better.
Peter Pan too.
Having trouble thinking of anything else…

Oh yes.

My thinking on dumbo is the extra tower (or whatever it’s called) and the AC playground :grin:

Okay. I get it. I was thinking ambiance and I’m not too fond of the Storybook Circus theme. Also Barn Stormer is not a direct comparison to Goofy’s Sky School. (Not that you made that comparison but others have.) It’s a direct comparison to the Gadget Go Coaster and is sadly lacking in charm.

Geez, I’m such a critic! Listen, I like WDW, I just don’t particularly like MK. Except … Tron!!

I’m honestly not a fan of either one :rofl:

:rofl: it’s all just for fun! Any park is better than no park!

This is the list. Some other honorable mentions:

  • Jungle Cruise at least is a little different, not sure I’d say better
  • Swiss Family Treehouse
  • Big Thunder also gets points for being different, just not better due to lack of enhanced effects.

At DCA, I give the edge to Tower of Terror but I LOVE GotG!

I should go back and look at the list I made to see if I still agree with myself. But I’m too lazy. :joy:

I like the GOTG version better.

I don’t know that’s I’ve ever noticed a difference :rofl:

Never climbed the WDW version

It’s a tie for me. They are just different, one isn’t better than the other :woman_shrugging:

There’s like a tunnel in the WDW version. That’s about it. :joy:

I thought of Jungle Cruise right after I posted that! I am waiting to see the re-themed treehouse at DL before I commit (again) to Swiss Family in MK, but I agree it was better (i.e. more nostalgic) for me than Tarzan. Big Thunder in MK is fun, but I don’t think it’s better than DL’s version. And I would ride GOTG Mission Breakout every time over ToT!

Yes, a weird dark tunnel/temple with a tiger.

I give an edge to DL BTMR rather than a tie. But it’s a small edge.

Oh yeah! We don’t ride it often :rofl:
