What was the Legend of the Lion King about? I don't remember this one.

dbm20th · 10-25-2006, 11:45 AM

I think I will need to put my anti-flame suit on here, but I am not sad that any of these are gone, with perhaps Toad being the only exception. 20k had the worst lines you can ever imagine and was so slow in loading it was down-right annoying. The Skyway is the same in any theme park orzoo anywhere. the Lion King show was ok, but just ok and the one in AK is far better.

Optimus Stitch · 10-25-2006, 02:15 PM

I miss Toad a whole lot.

**MickeyBabe** · 10-25-2006, 03:01 PM

I miss Toad in that I don't really care for Pooh, although I am far from one of the "Toadies" that lament the loss of the attraction daily.

The Lion King show was done with puppets and was entertaining, but not enough to want to go a second time.

In that area, I do miss Mickey Mouse Review. It was a first in being the first Audioanimatronic version of classic Disney Characrters and the sheer number of AAs used, 73 Disney characters with musical inclinations. Those characters were represented by 81 separate animated figures (8 of whom were alternate versions that appeared in different onstage locations.)

Of the four in the poll, I'd have to say 20K. The ride vehicles alone were an experience one will never forget.

Why do they keep taking out all of the great rides?

Optimus Stitch · 10-26-2006, 07:25 PM

What took the place of Festival of the Lion King?

goodsum · 10-26-2006, 09:23 PM

Mickey's Philharmagic I believe.

Optimus Stitch · 10-26-2006, 09:35 PM

I think that was probably a fair trade. I wish they would bring the skyway back. That was a very calming ride. I found a video on youtube that someone took during the whole ride.

I MISS THE SUBS!!!!!!!!!! but at least theyre comin back to me @ DLAND!

InStitches · 05-21-2007, 08:42 PM

Skyway definitely. I downloaded the ride on this site showing the ride from Tomorrowland to Fantasyland and showed my kids. It's really cool seeing the lagoon for 20K from above. I hate they won't be able to ride it.

WoL Fan · 09-30-2007, 11:42 PM

This was very tough for me. I rode all 3 back in 1980 during my only trip as a kid.

but the one I don't remember riding at all was Mr. Toad, so that's out. I distictly remember both 20,000 and the Skyway, but I went with Skyway just for the ease of transportation and the wonderful unique views of the Magic Kingdom you got.

Of course, if they said the subs were coming back, I won't complain.

LowesImpala · 10-17-2007, 03:09 PM

I chose Mr. Toads. It was still a great classic as was 20,000 Leagues.

Toad's Buddy · 10-17-2007, 04:36 PM

Hi all,

As much as I love 20k, I had to vote for Toad. I just can't figure out why...

Have a Great, Big, Beautiful Today!
