MouseBuzz.com - View Single Post - Which ride should Disney close, and which one shouldn't they?

I believe that Disney is a young company. The parks will continue to appeal as long as they refresh and replace their rides. There are some rides that should be refreshed with new technology and new story telling (read, not new stories) and others that should be fazed out (which I believe is the point to this thread) and replaced with totally new rides that reflect current "classic" content.

I think that EPCOT should be updated more often. This would keep with Uncle Walts vision. Body Wars should be replaced.

As I've said in another thread I would love to see The Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean updated. These where great break through rides in their day and could be again with a little updating. But Disney's money is not endless. I'm sure that a lot of the development money is being spent on getting AK up and running (which I think is becoming a very good park).

My pick to close would be "The Great Movie Ride"
