What a travesty that Mr. Toad is losing to the worst video game ride Disney ever made. While the game part of TSMM is very fun, the ride part is truly bottom tier.

The actual ride part of TSMM is incidental to the experience, which to me is unforgivable. It doesn’t spin or move in any way other than to ferry guests from screen to screen. The experience would be the same (except for capacity) if the vehicles were removed and guests walked from screen to screen.

Also, unlike on Buzz or the Falcon, if you choose to sit back and “enjoy the ride” there’s nothing to enjoy at all. There is nothing happening in the background, and only incredibly basic cut-outs and paintings of characters on the walls. Not super-basic Small World tier animatronics. Just flat images. UGH. If you do nothing on Buzz, you still get the experience of a half-decent Buzz dark ride. Or on the Falcon you still experience the ride passively like it’s Star Tours.

I'd rather burn in Hell than vote for Woody''s ride (you know what you did, Woody!!). So I voted for Alan Sepinwall's FAVORITE ride, the one where you go to Hell!
