Oh thank god, Grizzly is beating Autopia. I think I said it already on an earlier post but can we move on past Autopia already? Disneyland can really use the space and it’s loud and smelly and also not the future.

Iv’e thought for awhile now if Autopia wants to stay they need to, at the bare minimum, convert the cars to electric, because there’s nothing “tomorrow” about combustion engines.

What would really make them futuristic is if they went with hydrogen cells engines

Ooof. Rough day. Not sad to see Autopia lose, but it's kind of embarrassing to go down to an off-the-shelf water ride with minimal theming and zero storytelling. Maybe WDI will realize it's time to update or retire Autopia.

I'm a Rock 'n Roller Coaster hater. The worst example of Disney spending money on a thrill ride while cutting corners on the design. As a coaster it's less exciting than Space Mountain, as a themed attraction it has all the subtlety and investment of Superstar Limo. Compare that to Swiss Family Treehouse, which just exuded charm and discovery and was the perfect walkthrough attraction. I'm really excited to see the reset/update at DLP.

And I can't blame anyone for voting for the Monorail, but I'm saving my vote for WDW's version and going down with the Dapper Dans today.

I was going to write a nice long diatribe about why Swiss Family Treehouse should beat Rock n' Roller Coaster, but you nailed it.
