My theory for barnstormer is that it’s so short because it’s the first coaster most kids ride. Having a long ride on an entry-level coaster means more kids having to sit through a ride they hate or are sick on. No one wants that. It’s kind of genius to make the first coaster a shorter ride.
It was my first and I was 5 at the time so it was pretty exciting but now I prefer many of the other rollercoasters lol
Mission Space actually cured my husband’s motion sickness! After going on it was like something clicked in his brain. No more car sickness or ride sickness
WOA really?? 😲 I'm Phobic of roller coasters. it's kind of different from motion sickness bc the feeling of loosing my stomach gives me a Panic Attack. but I'm curious what gave him motion sickness? was it abrupt stops, heavy drops, spinning? I'm wondering if this would help me too.
@@mayganphynix8267 Pretty sure most of those things are on Mission Space. So maybe it's the enclosed environment?
@@wrongteous yeah possibly. that makes sense. heavy drops is the only thing I'm concerned about. I think I could handle the spinning alright. did you go on the green one or just the orange one?
Did he possibly have vertigo/labyrinthitis? The treatment for dislodging crystals in the ears is not unlike riding Mission Space.
They are complaining about no thrills for rides that are made for little kids lol
Or complaining about too many thrills when there are warnings signs all over the place for it (Mission Space) haha
And then complaining a literal spaceship launch simulator is too thrilling. Probably the same moronic lot that got rid of alien encounter
Good point 😂
I remember getting off the Seven Dwarfs' Mine train and this guy goes "well that wasn't a very good coaster. I expected it to be more intense." it's like Dude.. you're in Fantasyland.
The whole point of Disneyland is that the rides should be fun for the whole family, not just the kids.
If there's one thing Trip Advisor has taught me, it's that no one does any research anymore. Even on a trip that could easily cost several thousand dollars.
Our very first trip in the late '90s relied on Fodor's! ;) With Trip Advisor, there are some reviewers that turn people off when reading their comments. The key is to use it as a sounding board. Like these 'bad ride' ratings, different people love different things. My wife LOVES the Tea Party! So you find a 'well-travelled' reviewer that seems to have similar likes and interests to yours. Then see what they have to say about things...
@@troyjollimore4100 Exactly, I'm sure a lot (sure, not all) of bad ratings on any website are just from peoples frustration. But when it comes to things like FastPass where you clearly have a very limited number per park per day if you fly by the seat of your pants and just pick a ride not knowing anything about it it is really the rides fault? My kids broke into rollercoasters with the Barn Stormer which I think is the target audience for that ride. Every attraction has a time and place.
I usually spend months planning the trip to Disney..... Probably 50 to 100 hours per trip, planning is key when it comes to Disney!!
@@davidgrossett3241 My wife probably had that much or more invested in our trip last year (Hard to believe a year ago, we were there...), though she's not as efficient at planning as I am. I was able to pitch in some of AJ's tips, but we were staying on-resort with the Dining Plan, so she had it pretty much optimized to get our money's worth! The only thing that fell through was Oga's Cantina. One of our party couldn't stand the noise, so just got up and stormed off. So we couldn't stay and have some food and drinks... :(
@@troyjollimore4100 People just don't understand that it's not a trip to take lightly..... They say plan for success, which is true especially at Disney!
Mission: SPACE Doesn't get enough love! Its such a unique experience and everyone should try at least once. Still one of my favorites!
Ikr everyone seems to hate it
Mission Space is way to hated
Sorry, I’m a hater of that one. Rather have Horizons
Tried once, I'm good on a second time, thank you tho 🤣
I agree that’s the ride I mention the most when talking about unique rides in Disney World. It still one of the best from the Eisner era. If it’s too thrilling for somebody it should not be rated as bad.
Id be less salty about stitch's great escape closing if they atleast took care of the animatronic cause it was amazing
I miss that ride. sad to hear it's gone 💔
I rode it once and it was awful. It must have been different at some point, because I swore I wouldn't waste my time riding it again.
I could never figure out what in the world was the point of this ride. I can't believe a team of engineers worked on this and thought..."this ride is going to be awesome"!
OMG my mom wouldn't stop spinning the damn teacup! And she was laughing hysterically the whole time LOL
On our last trip to MK, I took my then-4yo on the Barnstormer. We got through the line in about 5 minutes and she said she was scared after her first go. 20 minutes later, she asked to go on it again. After her second time, she asked to go again immediately. Each line wait was less than 10 minutes.
It's a bit jackhammer-y.
Sounds like a good day.

*seven year old me riding rockin roller coaster*
i’m 13 and scared to do it still
@@vic_ruesga it’s fun you should consider riding :) I was rlly scared when I first went on it like I was hyperventilating 😂
OMG GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!
I'm going to Disney World for the first time this July with my best friend and I'm bingeing all of your videos to plan our trip!!
Have fun! My hubby and I went for the first time last January for my birthday :)
Unsolicited advice: Do NOT go expecting thrills. That just isn't Disney. Their most intense rollercoaster are FUN not thrilling. Which can be a blast, as long as you're prepared for it. Also, in general, don't get your heart set on much; food and rides are much more satisfying when you don't have to wait in a huge line for them.
This is a great resource for Disney World knowledge! These videos helped my wife and me make the most of our honeymoon trip back in January 2020! The tips and advice on things to avoid really helped us.
Have fun!! I have been four times.
Im going with my dad for the first time in october, and we went there 2 years ago but couldn't last year bc 2020
"Did the chili dog really smell that bad?"
Yes it did, and I kept smelling it the rest of the day when I walked around the center of the park.
I still enjoyed stitch's escape though.
I'm not sure why, but to me the chili dog smelled like froot loops 😂! I can still smell it to this day...
My mom remembers when stitch used to be alien and that was far more terrifying lol I went on stitch once and wasn’t really impressed
I went on it in 2001. It was so funny. I wasn't scared of it at all! My parents were worried I'd be scared, but I wasn't!
There's something nostalgic about riding Astro Orbiter! Love it!
I actually liked the Stitch ride and missed it last time I was in WDW.
I remember the original journey to the imagination..... it was great!
So do I!
The most frustrating aspect of the Stitch ride was that it always felt like it was about to really take off and be lots of fun, but it just kept fizzling over and over. Such a great movie and great character deserves a better ride.
Figment is one of my favorite rides! I've been riding this one since the mid 90s!
I laughed out loud when I heard people waste their fast passes on figment 😂
Considering the tier system Epcot had, the only other rides you could select weren’t much better honestly lol 😂
I've walked on it since maybe the past 5 years ive been at disney, can they not read the 5 minute wait line sign? lol
Sometimes I do it just to use my 3rd one so I can snag others afterward.
XD....yes, you can literally ride figment 10 times in a row since line is always at 5 min.
@@lifewithliz7489 especially when the "fast pass" line is longer than the regular line! 😂
If kids got to vote, this list would look totally different! 🤣
I took my daughter when she was 4 and she loved all the rides on this list 😂😂😂
@@emmyxprep2970 green wasn’t that bad. She rode everything at DW except Rockin Rollercoaster. First day we were there we rode Tower of Terror. She never complained about anything. The only thing I didn’t like was the whiplash I got from Tomorrowland Speedway.
I agree, complaining about tea cups is an old people thing.
So true. I havent been to Disney world but I loved the teacups at Disneyland as a kid. Now I feel like just watching from outside the ride would probably make me sick 😂
Not for me I totally agree with this list lmao
When I went to Epcot for the first time and I didnt know who Figment was, I thought he was Spyro lol
That Nigel moon on Journey Into Imagination is pure nightmare fuel...
*my sleep paralysis demon*
Ikr. When I first saw it as a kid it was a major WTF moment
The barn stormer used to be my kids’ favorite ride. I will never knock a ride my children enjoy.
I only remember going to Disney since 1999. Figment is is one of my favorite things. 🤷♂️ Never been on the others. The Stitch ride used to be Alien Encounter - which sucked then too.
Stitch ride was so wack
@@netty1221 I don’t see why they thought having a standing show where stuff hit your shoulders and sprayed in your face was a good idea
@@carschmn and remember how the water used to surprise u and if u jumped in chair the shoulder straps would hurt 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ who sanctioned this ride in the first place 😂😂😂🙄🙄🙄 was a total waist of time and my shoulders hurt thinking back to it lollll
Alien Encounter was the best "show" style attraction at Disney. My whole family loved it. Sad its gone.
So you caused 2020...
Thrill King what are you going on about?
Love your videos, AJ! I always binge listen while I’m working on a project and building stuff. I love your videos!
Great vlog as always. This and two others are letting me keep warm thoughts during the blizzard here in NY.
I actually LOVED Stitch's Great Escape! It was always one of the first rides I headed for! I will miss it!
Stitch great escape was so scary to me when I was a kid. I still remember sitting there kicking and screaming thinking an alien was going to eat me lmao.
the shoulder thing when stitch jumps around the place glitched out when my family went and it was strangling my mom 😭😭 i couldn't help but laugh so hard.
Same!!!
I subscribed and turned on notifacations this channel is amazing and helpful for a disney trip I just got back from disney world and had a great time thanks to dfb!
OMG! Mission Space????
This was my sons’ and I MOST favorite ride!Trip Advisor(s) are a bunch of Mary’s!
Leave it out..
" How many rides do you need to go on that only go in circles? ". LOL. Love it.
There are too many Disney Videos and Vlogs on CZcams. You are the best!!! Thank you for your Videos! They are amazing!!!
I LOVED the previous alien version of the Stitch ride.
I hope they never get rid of figment we love that little guy
i keep holding out hope that maybe, JUST MAYBE, they'll bring back the original ride with the EPCOT refurb. I'm not holding my breath, but I can dream. Lol
Subscribed! Great tips videos! I have been to Disney three times and looking forward to my next trip in the future!
Person looks at the tea cups.. "I wonder what that ride is about"
Well, it's only in every back-country 'Carny' show all over North America. But it's still fun for those that love their rides 'dull'. Of course, I almost got my wife sick from WATCHING me and my nieces and their friends on a ride like that. Hard to do, these days, but I spun it so fast the kids were pressed back into their seats from the G-forces! LOL... And they just kept screaming, "Faster! FASTER!!!" XD
Or they say "I went on the teacups and got sick, I hate spinning." Well...it's not like they spring that surprise on you last minute! It's one of the few rides that you can see from beginning to end!
Having gotten stuck on Small World for an hour, that song now nauseates me, so Small World is my least favorite ride.
I agree. And I didn't get stuck. I rode it when I was 12. I keep thinking what is the point to this ride. Thinking the purpose was to make me go krazy so I could jump off
Wasting your Fastpass on Figment...
now that's a bruh moment
I love mission space! I HATE roller coasters so i was surprised that I liked the "Orange" one.
I've been so curious about that! what don't you like about roller coasters? did this ride make you loose your stomach? deep drops give me a Panic Attack, but I really wanna ride this one. sounds epic!
@@mayganphynix8267 ive never vomited after a roller coaster, but the big drops are the worst! I Dont like the feeling that some people call "thrill" you know? But I do like spinning rides which is what mission space is.
So have you ever gone on mission space? If not, I suggest you try the "green" line. Its mission to the moon, but the more intense one is the orange, mission to mars. 😉
I am 69 and Teacups are still a favorite.Dumbo and like rides are great for grandparents to ride with the under 5 set. The kids love being in control of the height you fly !
Always ride the Orange side of Mission Space. My husband road it once and was hooked it’s now his favorite since he can’t ride coasters anymore.
how similar is it to a roller coaster?
Yes Please share. Does it feel like you are dropping, being pulled up, or being ripped apart
Figment deserves a better ride! Really hoping it gets an overhaul!
Agreed! I remember it when I as a kid (Dreamfinder era) and I LOVED it! Took my kids two years ago and the dang thing broke down 3 times in one ride. We got off and I apologized to them, swearing it used to be so much better. I complained to the park about the repeated break downs, saying I miss the old one so much!
Yes somebody who gets me
@@danak8185 Figment is the only ride I've been on that's ever broken down so bad we had to actually get out of the vehicles and walk out. It constantly stalls too.
Imo, it should stay just get fixed since it breaks down a lot. Its so nostalgic and I would be sad to see it any different unless it's changed back to the original.
I'm going to Disneyworld for the first time this May for my honeymoon with my soon to be wife. I've been watching all of your videos since August to help me plan the trip😂
Congratulations! Disney is the best
Congrats!! 🎉
@@chelseabrocenschi7827 thank you! We are super excited!
congrats!!!!
Congratulations have fun and stay safe and healthy!
You are so helpful I am going to Disney soon so I am binging your vids
People go to Disney World for the best theme parks have to offer, not a recreation of an experience they could find an hour away from home, especially since state fairs and carnivals were the kinds of things Walt Disney was trying to avoid when making Disneyland.
Great video! (from a parent of Disney 80’s kids). Going to Epcot the first year it opened - Figment was our favorite. Went on the newer version - will never go again. Unless Figment comes back (like before) this ride will not be visited by our grandchildren,
ah I love Mission Space, I've only ever done the orange side!
The reviews she read make me want to ride it even more. I’m an orange only kind of person myself.
Before I went back in December, I was a bit nervous having seen a number of reviews about how intense Orange is. After I got off, I was confused what people were talking about. Didn't feel all that intense to me. If I went in blind, I would have never considered warning anyone about intensity if they asked me.
it made me naseous
One of my favourites for sure, I know is not for everyone but they did an amazing job recreating the feeling it always reminds me of my dream of going to space one day
G-Force has different effects on people, I’m not really affected by it in small doses (aka Mission Space) but my boyfriend had a headache for the entire rest of the day after riding one of those gravitron 3000 rides where you go into this UFO looking thing and get plastered to the wall.
I LOVE LOVE LOVED the speedway as a kid. 50+ years ago. Time for an true futuristic upgrade! Show us what can be Disney!!! Thanks A.J. always fun to watch!
Coming from someone who's experienced this myself, don't ride Mission Space Orange right after eating a Dole Whip.
I'm fine with all of these except Astro Orbiters. I think it's a really neat attraction plus it's a classic. The speedway might be ranked bad but for some reason it's so popular. I've never done it but always see long wait times.
Where did you get a dole whip in EPCOT?
@@lakenalexander5334 this was before quarantine and I was eating one on the way to EPCOT from Magic Kingdom lol
Our family loves Figment. It’s a must-do since the 90s. Disney is (for us) all about the memories. 😍
I love the tea cups, it's a must do for me. I have always loved them and my kids 23/17 love them as well.
Mad Tea Party?!? Seriously??? This is an awesome ride! (And I'm 60 and haven't gotten to the point when I can't do spinning rides! 😁) Great video!!!
I’d like to see Figment’s ride changed into a Monster’s Inc ride where they go through doors into different countries. This would update it and tie into the global theme of Epcot.
love this idea!
I'm 3 into the video, and all of my personal favorites (granted Tomorrowland Speedway should get a much needed upgrade) have been in the listing. Ngl, I have a MASSIVE affinity for Dinosaurs (even if they aren't *exactly* what you think of when you think Disney) so knowing there's an area of the park dedicated to them has always made me super happy.
I love watching your videos but personally idk what Disney world is even like. Could you make a video about all of the parks and rides. Or do you already have one?
Go on Astro obiters during the fireworks. It was stunning
Figment should be brought back to closer to the 80's version.
I'll never understand the hate for Mission Space. It is about as realistic as a theme park ride can be for a space experience. Spectacular.
what does it feel like? 🙂 are there any heavy drops?
I think people don’t like that it’s so realistic, especially those who are claustrophobic or get sick easily.
My grown kids want me to go to WDW with them in 2022. I have been trying to wriggle out of it, but watching these videos is slowly changing my mind.
At 48, I still have the best time at WDW, so I hope you'll decide to join your kids! It's awesome for adults too!
There's probably more for adults to enjoy than for kids!
I definitely miss the old figment but I still love him and see him every time we go to Epcot. 🥰🥰🥰
I think it's great that the barnstormer is a super short since it's an introductory coaster. That way your kid can get a taste without being traumatized.
The Orange side was a complete thrill. The immersion of being in a shuttle is crazy. having Gary Sinese direct was a joy to listen too. I love immersion and it may not be for everyone but it did its job well.
how similar is it to a roller coaster?
The Barnstormer was my first rollercoaster ever. I remember being scared to go on at first but then I absolutely loved it and made my dad ride it with me multiple times. We even skipped the parade cause I just wanted to keep riding. I haven’t ridden it in a long time and would probably find it boring but it has a special place in my heart for introducing me to rollercoasters.
Mission space needs to make it more clear how intense this ride is. I’ve literally never gotten sick on any ride in my life besides mission space. It made me intensely nauseous and I had to lay down for an hour afterwards to finally feel better.
It’s a recreation of the kind of intense tests they put astronauts and pilots through. In my opinion it is massively too intense for most normal people and we should absolutely be earned as such
I had the same experience... so awful. I’ll never go again 😂
I loved it, I was a little to scared because of all the precautionary warnings and to me they made it clear on how tense it was. I overcame my wearyness and fear and took a chance because I’ve done spinning and upside down rides before, and to come out loving the ride was the best part.
So I got VERY VERY sick on this ride, but I really should have known better. My husband and kids encouraged me, and gave me the courage to do it with them. I blame them. 😂 Throughout the queue they literally warn you every single step of the way, so all I can say is lesson learned?🤷♀️
Mission space is one of my top rides! I am also use to fair rides spinning and going upside down so maybe I’m use to the sensation. But reading all the warnings and precautionary pamphlet I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect but I took a chance anyways (like I did for tower of terror or California screamin’) and came out absolutely loving this ride, unlike the other thrill rides they have at the parks.
The fact that the magic carpets is above mission space is the worst insult to mission space😂😂😂😂
I actually love mission space and stitch’s great escape (i miss it 😢) lol ❤️👏🏾
I'm am so happy I subscribed a long time ago bc I'm finally going to Disney world in March with my family
Yay have fun and stay safe and healthy:)
Not Figment!! I love that little purple guy. I’ve never waited in line for that ride....always a walk on. We sing his song all the time at home lol 🤷🏻♀️
Barnstormer was perfect for us. We were back there late during extra magic hours and there was no line. My kids ran around and went about 5 or 6 times, while I relaxed. They were so happy to have the freedom and no line!
*when you went on mission space orange mission at twelve and didn't get sick at all*
;-;
I understand that some people get more sick while on rides such as mission space, but I actually enjoyed it and definitely didn't feel like it was a "near to death experience".
what did it feel like? 🙂 deep drops give me a Panic Attack, but I really wanna ride it 🙃 it sounds epic.
I’m relieved the Carousel of Progress wasn’t mentioned.
COP is awesome but the last act needs updating
It should have been mentioned! In 10 trips I have done Carousel a total of one time!! And it put me to sleep. So i guess that is the nicest thing i could say about it.
@@rilenaveen5695 hardy har har
@@mattwas2896 They DO update it every so often. When I took my kids two years ago, I hadn’t been on it in a long time and the final scene was new to me. The kids, btw, LOVED it and still sing that catchy tune. We’re headed back this year and hoping it’s open when we’re there.
@@danak8185 cool yea I heard before the pandemic that there were plans to update the last act but who knows when it will happen now. ....Enjoy
Alien encounter was awesome! I'm so glad I got to experience it before it closed.
hey AJ! great vids! I love binge watching ur videos! These rates aren’t really that accurate! But I do kinda agree with the journey into imagination one, because I not as good as it was, but it’s still a wonderful ride! I mean comon, figment is the cutest! 💜💜💜
love you AJ so sorry again for your loss.
I love mission space! If you love really immersive experiences this one is great! I am crazy about all things space and I totally felt like I was in a rocket launch... I was mega impressed by how real it felt. Agreed, if you don’t like cramped spaces or spinning probably skip, but I was like this is pretty cool
My family LOVED Stitch’s great escape! The 4d experience was so fun!
The first time I went to Disney, as non english speaker when I was eight, I thought Figment was Spyro from the video game.
I remember when I was around 5 the barnstormer was the first rollercoaster I went on, so it will always have a place in my favorites.
Mission: SPACE is my favorite ride at Disney. I rode it 4 times (including a back-to-back) on my 2004 trip, and I rode it again on my 2015 trip.
I actually kind of love the Riverboat. It is really relaxing and I really enjoy watching the steam engine work. It is also a very good representation of what it would have been like to be a passenger on a riverboat in the 1800 hundreds.
Agreed! It's a great ride. So many people don't seem to value it or Tom Sawyer's island.
Riding the Barnstormer, Astro Orbiters, or Thunder Mountain during the fireworks show is fantastic. On barnstormer they just let us all ride a second time since the fireworks were going and there was no one waiting in line.
I love all the scenes and really enjoy just Watching people from this view
i liked the stitch ride :( and the old alien thing that was there b4 it :( stitch is one of my favorites i hope he makes another apearance some how
The barn stormer is a highlight for my three year olds. Thankfully lines have always been short & I love watching them experience a “coaster”
Aw, I love the riverboat. Very peaceful and relaxing. Everything doesn't have to make your stomach flip, people!
I agree! I’m definitely a thrill seeker but the riverboat is so scenic and really helps to establish a true sense of the American frontier. I love it!
While dinoland definitely felt very dated when I went around Christmas 2020. When I was resting at a table with my niece, who loves dinosaurs, a lady who had won multiple stuffed animals came up to her and just gave her one said "Here you go." and left. It's still one of her favorite toys. So while it may be dated, it can still provide magic for the kiddos.
I always love to hear a non-Disney, Disney perspective 😆
Barnstormer is really short but my daughter went on it when she was 2 years old and absolutely loved it so it’s the perfect length for someone her age
The Barnstormer was my absolute favorite ride as a kid, because it was the only rollercoaster I could handle. A lot of fond memories of that ride.
I love mission space, I reinstated my pass and the first ride I rode was mission space Orange. Love love the Gs
I like to hear AJ's smiling voice! Plus, I do love Disney, but will probably not go anymore as I can't stand crowds .
I love astro orbiter! I love the speed and the height! But the wait time, I agree with. Also, we lost my daughter's shoe here hahah
In 2013 the jumping on my shoulders actually hurt my back! This happened the first park day and I was in pain the rest of the trip. And AJ as an 80's EPCOT kid, I spent close to an hour explaining the amazing differences of Eric Idle vs the wonderful and kind Dreamfinder. The song was so much better back then. I'm really surprised the Carousel of Progress didn't make the "meh" list. My family loves the storyline. Following the family through the years allows my kids to see how things were in their grandparent's time and okay my time. Yes I crimped my hair, wore jelly bracelets and remember Captain EO.
Absolutely love Barnstormer. Loath Astro orbiter. I get sick every time on it out the other circle rides nothing. But that one code green every time
I’m 22 and I love all of these rides mentioned. They are all so much fun !
Astro orbiter is the go-to-ride if you want to catch a gorgeous sunset view of the castle from above.
I loved Stitch’s Great Escape. I thought it was really funny and a cool take on a 4D/5D experience
I came here to see if anyone felt the same. I really liked the attraction! I would understand not wanting to stand in a long line but i thought it was fun. Lilo and Stitch deserve a ride.
Love Magic Carpets! When you’re up there it’s like being above a small marketplace from the past! Defiantly at least worth a cool breeze 😌
2:13 lol at Eric Idle for forgetting all about Figment!
My 16th visit to WDW I finally rode Astro Orbiter for the very first time. PreCOVID closure, this was exactly one year from yesterday that I rode it, during off peak, on a weekday, and it was a 45 minute wait. Peoplemover, which I have never waited for, was a 20 minute wait. WDW had become so overcrowded that pretty much everything we rode that we did not have a fastpass for was on this list.
