Add Winnie the Pooh to that. Those germ walls that people don’t need to touch but do. But they also have the play area for the kiddos.
Maybe it should go on the best and the worst?
The posters were punny but not enough to offset that room.
Up to about 2004 we did its tough to be a bug every trip. Started leaving it off when it wasn’t a good fit for the new kid in the family.
I couldn’t recall that room from our previous trips. Has that area been changed?
I was totally awe-struck by Winnie the Pooh when I first went through that queue in 2018. I see it’s not winning any awards with you folks, but it would totally be in my “top queue” list.
JC is just the worst. Reasons have been detailed. Give it the gold.
JC and BTMRR are the worst. Deceptively long, so hot.
EE is the best, so much to look at.
Worst - Soarin’, Buzz, JC, MMRR, SDD
Worst: Astro orbiter. It is actually a very cool ride but I hardly ever ride it because of the terrible queue. It’s another where you just stand there and think you are finally making progress, but then ride an excruciatingly slow elevator to stand in another line.
Best: Peter Pan. Just so delightful and gives me big Disney nostalgia. The shadow wall is the best.
Best: Expedition Everest. The outdoor portion is beautiful and the indoor portion has so much interesting stuff to look at. I’m a sucker for all of the theming in the Asia section of AK.
Ooh, this is a good contender for worst. While in theory I like the elevator (kids love elevators), it slows down the boarding process, especially with Covid and limitations on parties in the same elevator. (I think those have been removed, but it was a real pain in May/June.)
Best: Frozen Ever After. Feels more realistic than the sets during the ride.
Worst: Tomorrowland Speedway. Hot and Loud.
and smells of fuel… cough… gag…
I’ll nominate this one for one of the worst (but not worst), actually. The more recent additions to the queue have made it more tolerable. But that’s a very recent change, relatively speaking. But it has been such a slow moving line, it can feel like you are never going to get there.
I do agree Astro Orbiter is a very bad queue.
One of my favorite queues is PotC.
Um, I can set off “explosions”?
This is an older article but it outlines it all for you.

There are videos if you search youtube too but for some reason I can’t get to youtube from work today
Wow. Mind blown. Granted, we are usually flying through that queue with fast passes. Thanks!
Best: Rise, FOP, Falcon, Tower, Everest, Frozen, Nemo, Toy Story Mania, Pirates,
Worst: SDD, Safari, NRJ, Soarin, Test Track, SSE, JC, SDMT, Splash, and prob unpopular opinion… but I didn’t love the Remy line. The outdoor waiting portion was brutal in the heat this past week.
Best:
EE because this is my favorite ride and I love how something that feels kind of like an amusement park roller coaster queue actually has you immersed in the world of “Yeti’s are real” by the time you get to treturned.
Worst;
ASTRO Orbitor for reasons already stated, but the queue actively keeps me from riding it.
Splash: I feel like I am in a never ending cattle shoot and half of the sparse decorations remind me of why that ride needs to be rethemed.
Keep the nominations coming! I will probably create the poll tomorrow sometime.
One per park, I guess.
Best: PPF, TSM, FEA, EE
Worst: TS, SDD, SE, KS
I think Spaceship Earth is the only one of mine that hasn’t been mentioned yet. Boring turnstiles outside, maybe in the shade, maybe not.
Actual poll is live:
meh…this took too long to put together. I have no interest in participating now.
