Top 10 Worst Disney World Attractions

The top 10 most horrible and pointless rides and attractions in Disney World.
The Top Ten
1 Stitch's Great Escape!

I absolutely hate this ride. I went on it 4 years ago and it is TRULY the worst ride in Disney. It's not actually even a ride. Also has nothing to do with the movie. The harness is also useless. Also there is a height limit for 42 inches! What!? No height limit needed. I remember it like this. There's no line for obvious reasons. You walk in this hallway and some police of some sort tell you that stitch has escaped. I thought you would have like fake laser guns and would fight bad guys or something exciting. NOPE. Your sitting in a giant, dark room, in seat with a harness over your head. The "ride" is stitch burping and laughing loudly in your ears, and the harness is for getting shook in for like 5 seconds. Worst. Ride. EVER!

If you like loud noises, uncomfortable seats, and animatronics burping in your face, this ride is for you! I think Lilo And Stitch is the most underrated Disney film, but the ride is truly awful. You sit in these seats that clamp down on your shoulders and cut into them if you move. The plot of the ride is that experiment 626 (Stitch) has escaped and is causing mayhem the whole time. The noises that are made (ie, things exploding, lights flickering, contraptions operating, etc.,) are loud as heck and will make anybody deaf. While Stitch bounces around the rider's seats, they thrust down on you, and it is hell on your shoulders. The worst part is when Stitch eats a tourist's chili dog, and burps. The seats have nozzles on them that spray scents, and it is the most disgusting thing ever. In fact, when my friend went when he was about 8, he actually threw up because it was so gross. I love the Lilo and Dtitch movie, but this is just bad

2 Journey into Imagination with Figment

A dull, and annoying ride in a big and beautiful pavilion dedicated to Imagination. Made by people called "imagineers", who are supposed to be inspired by the worlds greatest dreamer and doer, Walt Disney, and this is what we get? An annoying dragon, a fart joke and a creepy face in the moon, along with mirror tricks and yet more video (Epcot loves their outdated videos). I don't buy the excuse that Kodak couldn't support it financially. This is still Disney property and they are a financially strong company and could do this ride properly. It's long overdue and is insulting that they keep such a cruddy ride in an expensive park.

I have been to Disney five times this year already we are very thoughtful about all the rides and think about the planning. This ride is so not Disney and not up to its capability and standards. It is at best something you would see at a local fair or carnival. Lots of empty space throughout the ride that could be utilized the scenery is it best below average This rug is our families vote for the worst ride at Disney. We range in age from 52 to 8 years old

3 Circle of Life

This isn't the live show. Anyone thinking this is the live show is an inexperienced Disney world tripper. This is the show that is in Epcot, based on natural conservation and how as humans we have made mistakes.
I love the educational aspect that disney is trying to teach, but come on, this attraction is outdated, theater is ugly, and the story is old. At least update the theater, the show, or anything about this attraction, or just take it out completely.

I have no idea how this is so high on the list, let alone on the list at all. This is one of the most amazing Disney live shows ever. Amazing music, costumes, and acts. It's hard to notice an outdated theatre when the show in it is so amazing.

The story's nice and all but they really need to re-film it and RESTORE THE THEATER. If you ever view this attraction you will see what I mean, the place look's like it hasn't been restored since the ride came out in the 90's.

4 Conservation Station

To make a long story short, it sucks, there is nothing interesting, you have to wait in line twice, once for waiting for the train, they force you off the train and you have to wait in line again to get back into the park. That wasn't exactly making a long story short.

One of my favorite things to do in AK! Seeing the goats and characters is always a blast.

Really boring

5 Tomorrowland Speedway

You wait up to 2 Hours in the BURNING HOT SUN for much of the time waiting, and yo go on these cars that only go 7 MPH! and you bump onto the tracks as well as get BUMPED ON by other "drivers", getting whiplash.
Disney decided to keep this ride even with the making of Tron.

Worst Disney attraction of all time! I have been operating it for almost eight months, felt like eight months of pure torture. I am extremely thankful to be transferring over to Test Track in early August.

I think they should fix it up and retheme it to sugar rush from wreck it Ralph. It could be cool if the fixed it up.

6 Universe of Energy

The Original should be here, but if were talking about Ellen's Energy Adventure. That ride is my favorite at EPCOT due to Bill Nye and 45 minute's of Air Conditioning.

You know this is closing

They got rid of it

7 Primeval Whirl

I got hurt on this ride. Burns from the bars and seat, and got the wind knocked out of me.

It so painful and not the quality for Disney, it's a ride you find at a local carnival.

My favorite ride at animal kingdom, and hollywood studios combined.

8 It's a Small World It's a Small World is a water-based dark ride located in the Fantasyland area at the various Walt Disney Parks and Resorts worldwide; these include: Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California, the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, Tokyo Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, and Hong Kong Disneyland.

I just looked this ride up, and it looks creepy, stupid, and boring. I know it is trying to spread a good message, but can they put cultural music and pictures of all cultures instead? The dolls are creepy, they look like Chuckie's siblings, and the stare at you. The ride is really boring, all you do is go on a boat on water and see some dolls, not fun or interesting, you can look at dolls everywhere, including stores. And that song though, it is creepy.

This ride isn't very fun. I disagree that the props are creepy, the animatronics are kind of cool, but it moves so slow, doesn't really do much and has really annoying music. Not to mention to incredibly long line just to sit in a plastic boat.

It's not like this ride is really bad it's just that it's really overrated. Everyone says it's an amazing ride and really it isn't they should replace with like something else for sure!

9 Enchanted Tiki Room

WHAT?
Are you guys insane, how is this the worst Disney World ride I thought this was a Disney classic and innovated back in the 1960s at Disneyland which was the birth of the Audio Animatronics.
If you are talking about the Under New Management one yes it's awful, not the original.
Country Bear Jamboree and Carousel of Progress should NOT be on this list.

THE WORST. Complete waste of time. And you can't leave in the middle of the show. Why do they still keep it? Disney world needs major renovations.

Come on, guys! Grab a Mickey Bar! The burning heat of Florida is worse than you think! And this is less annoying then the Bear Country Jamboree!

10 The Magic Carpets of Aladdin

It wasn't as magical as the Dumbo one. Reasons due to hot location, bad views, and less carpets. The spraying camel doesn't help either.

What a huge waste of space in Adventureland. Another dumbo spinner?

I've been on this ride, and I agree.

The Contenders
11 Mission: SPACE Mission: Space is a centrifugal motion simulator thrill ride at Epcot in Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.

There's a reason, it's caused 200 paramedic 911 calls and sent 1000 people to the hospital ER from 2003 to 2006, and the G-forces are unrelenting and will actually traumatize you.

They made it so that it perfectly simulates what it's really like to go to space.

This Disney ride is without a doubt, more violent than any other you will EVER go on, you can't even breathe, yet your bones crack, and you can't even have consciousness during and after this ride, and I'm not an overreacting chicken, yet I've been on every other ride around.

It's technically one of the best, but I can see why?
People have gotten hurt and some died, yet the intensity means this ride is not only for those with good heath, blood pressure, or those without heart, back, neck problems, motion sickness or pregnant people, but also for those who don't have headaches, inner ear problems, migraines, vertigo or elevated anxiety.
It's so intense that Disney made a mild version, Green or Earth.
The Orange or Mars mission is so intense that it makes this the only attraction at Disney and the first theme park attraction to have barf bags.
If you don't like the original or orange, which is now Mars, then you can go to the green one, which is now the Earth mission, for comfort and safety, though it can be boring.

12 The Barnstormer

What? I get that it's not exciting but come on it's a kiddie coaster and fits the theme

It's only on here because of Toontown fair closing and the retheming. it sucks now.

13 Frozen Ever After

Totally boring ride with lots of empty spaces. The few animatronics in there were nice, but the ride is very sparse (like 2 characters per room with blank walls everywhere else) and there is no coherent reason for anything that is happening. It just felt like we were watching a commercial for the movie with 30 seconds of song per room. We only had to wait for 15 minutes due to being there during extra magic hours and even that was too long to wait.

This is just truly disappointing from epcot, in my opinion, this whole ride was a cheap excuse to use up space, and there is almost nothing having to do with Norway except for the music on the lift chain, overall, it's just a cash grab

Excellent ride that makes you feel the Frozen buzz all over again! Don't listen to the haters, they probably didn't get the ez pass and are mad at the world because they have no life and need to hate on Disney rides...

14 Carousel of Progress

The song kinda sticks in your head to the point of shoving an ice pick in your ear to make it stop, but it is informative and has stood the test of time, except the future kitchen sceen, I highly doubt that part was around when this was in the 60's world fair. But it was neat and gives you a 30 minute AC break

This ride is not terrible at all. You people musthave a pineapple where your brain should be. This is one of the BEST rides in the Magic Kingdom.

Ok what? Walt Disney created this attraction. And it's perfect and the only place where it's not the rainbows and princesses. It's actually a good ride.

15 Journey Into Your Imagination (Epcot)

THANK GOD they closed this. It was the absolute worst.

16 TriceraTop Spin

Again, another copy of Dumbo, along with the Magic Carpets and Astro Orbiter. This one is the most boring one of all though.

I love it it is like dumbo you like dumbo right?

17 Captain EO

Old, poorly scripred, makes no sense at all, just dumb in general. Also, I couldn't care less how the stupid thing was made 26 years ago, yet alone stand in the slanted room for 8 minutes watching the making of movie hurting my neck looking at the screens over head...did I mention old?

I hate the story line, the acting, the singing... The film itself seems to have been made to show off 3D, and 3D doesn't awe people anymore. So it's just a bad show, and you have to wait for it by watching a boring video about how it was made and blah blah blah...

Why did they put this on the list!? This was Epcot's other popular attraction.

18 Tom Sawyer Island

No one cares about this attraction, it is just a waste of good useful land.

How is 10,000 leagues under the sea gone and this is still there?

I wish they still did the hidden paintbrush thing...

19 Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros

Awesome ride that shows the true beauty and compassion of the Mexican culture. Although not as good as its predecessor "El Rio de Tiempo" it is quite an awesome show.

I went on this so many times with my 2 friends and my sister and would give this ride 10/10 great for taking a break on a hot summer day and does not have very long waits

Should still be "EL Rio de Tiempo" if you ask me, but hey they just closed maelstrom at Norway for Frozen and it doesn't even take place in Norway!

20 Monsters Inc Laugh Floor

That pretty goo

21 The Land

I understand this is educational and that's the point of Epcot but it is a good excuse for a nap. And this would fit a lot better in Animal Kingdom

I have bad memories of this. Parents really enjoy this one because it's relaxing, but it's really really boring too.

It think it's pretty miserable to see the alligators and fish waiting for their death. Plus it's a bad location.

22 Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith

If you hate roller coasters and loud music, then this is not your ride, but if you like roller coasters, then your in luck. The takeoff and inversions will satisfy any hardcore roller coaster fans and Aerosmith music will delight any Aerosmith and rock music fans, and if you like taking off so fast that you can’t breathe till you die, then this is your ride. Seriously, this may be one of the best rides for thrill seekers but not for wimps.

The restraints make the ride suck. My shoulder and head banged on the restraints and left me bruised and marked. I came off with a big headache and I swore it off and said I'm never riding this thing again.
The music didn't make it any better and that's another reason I got a headache.

It's fun and all, but the shoulder restraints cut into you and the music blasts into your eardrums, raping them.
The speed is thrilling though.

23 Living with the Land
24 Space Mountain Space Mountain is the name of a space-themed indoor roller coaster attraction located at five of the Magic Kingdom-style Disney Parks.

People have died in this ride. Must've been traumatic and violent, not to forget it's so dark, so yeah, worst nightmare for ride haters.

This ride is awesome! It doesn't belong here! Country Bear Jamboree isn't even on here yet! This makes no sense!

This is the only ride in Disney a World that makes my Dad giggle to no end. Great family memories here.

25 Sounds Dangerous

I'm a huge Disney fan and I've never heard of it. Must not be very popular.

They shut this down for a Star Wars movie

Glad they took it out.
