Best Extinct Theme Park Attractions

The Top Ten

  1. Countdown To Extinction (Disney's Animal Kingdom)

    This ride was better than the current Dinosaur ride, even though it was scarier. It had better effects, including animatronic Compsognathus and a movable pterodactyl animatronic.

    There was even the meteor prop in place of the current last Carnotaurus finale animatronic. This ride needs to return in place of Dinosaur.

  2. Terminator 2: 3D (Universal Studios Hollywood)

    I really wish this ride returned and changed the year from the 2020s, made the characters more accurate, etc., so this ride would be there for much longer.

    Also, this ride should replace the empty parking lot area.

    Never been on it, but T2 is one of my favorite movies, so the ride had to have been good.

  3. PeopleMover (Disneyland 1967-1995)

    This abandoned ride has been sitting for too long. This ride should return to its glory days.

  4. Flying Saucers (Disneyland)

    This ride would have been good if there weren't errors and other issues with it.

  5. Twilight Zone Tower of Terror (California Adventure)

    I can't believe that this ride got replaced by the Guardians of the Galaxy ride, which is a cash-cow move.

  6. Backdraft (Universal Studios Hollywood)

    I went to this show when I was little. It is sad that it was removed.

  7. Maelstrom (Epcot 1988-2014)

    This famous ride got replaced by the less famous Frozen ride. This ride should have stayed, and the Frozen ride should have been built on an abandoned park area.

    Replaced with the Frozen ride. I miss this ride.

  8. Jurassic Park: The Ride (Universal Studios Hollywood)

    I went on this ride either two or three times. Sadly, it was closed earlier this year and is being replaced by the Jurassic World ride, which is considered a bad cash grab move.

  9. Deja Vu (Six Flags Magic Mountain)

    I really miss this ride, and it should return.

  10. Universe of Energy (Epcot)

    I miss the animatronic dinosaurs of this ride, even though they looked outdated. I can't believe this ride was replaced by the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy ride, which is also a cash-cow move.

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    Kingda Ka (Six Flags Great Adventure)

  12. ?

    The Wild Wild Wild West Stunt Show (Universal Studios Hollywood)

    13. The Contenders

  13. ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter (Walt Disney World)

    Lots of people loved that ride, even though it is considered one of the scariest Disney Parks rides ever created. Sadly, it was replaced by a much-despised Stitch attraction, which was also permanently closed down.

  14. The Great Movie Ride (Disney's Hollywood Studios)

  15. America Sings (Disneyland)

    I miss this ride. It was a childhood favorite for many who visited when it was open.

  16. Journey Into Imagination (Original Version) - Epcot

  17. California Screamin (Disney's California Adventure)

  18. Ghostbusters Spooktacular (Universal Studios Florida)

  19. Snow White's Adventure (Walt Disney World 1971-1994)

    This ride became so low-quality in 1994 when they made it less scary. And don't get me started on the Princess Fairytale Hall.

    This version was much better than the sugarcoated version that replaced it in 1994.

  20. Kingdom of the Dinosaurs (Knott's Berry Farm)

    I went there only once as a toddler, at least that's what my dad told me. I really miss this ride, and I want it to return as an updated version of the old ride.

  21. Horizons - Epcot (1983-1999)

    If it weren't for that damned sinkhole, the original ride building would probably remain intact to this day.

  22. King Kong Encounter (Universal Studios Hollywood Studio Tour)

  23. Nature's Wonderland (Disneyland)

  24. Cinderella Castle Mystery Tour (Tokyo Disneyland)

  25. Rockslide (Universal Studios Hollywood Studio Tour)

  26. Battle of Galactica (Universal Studios Hollywood Studio Tour)

  27. Castle Dracula (Universal Studios Hollywood)
