OK then, what is the WORST queue at WDW?
Just curious as to what y'all think. Remember, what you think of the actual ride has no bearing on your answer.
2002 - 2022: 20+ visits (POR, BW, All Stars, VWL, CSR, BLT, BC, SSR, CB, Dolphin, OKW, Poly, offsite x8)
DL - 1996, 2019
Next up - January 2023 short trip! We just want to try that 50th Anniversary chocolate monstrosity at Mexico!

I'd have to say Dumbo or Tomorrowland Speedway

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.
The Speedway is bad, too.
Peter Pan queue is deceptive...with the way it kind of bends...

By worst I take it you mean by the experience not the time or unexpected time you spend in the que line.
By far the worst as far as experience is the Kilimanjaro Safari que at Animal Kingdom. Well I should say it is the worst when it is hot and humid but then it is hot and humid in Orlando 3/4 of the year. lol The majority of the que is outside twisted through the trees and vegetation but a lot of sun still makes it through and the heat and humidity is almost unbearable. Why they build any ride now without an indoor air conditioned que is beyond me. I understand the whole atmosphere for the ride but geesh make the air conditioned que line building look like an old run down hut or store or something instead of making us suffer in the heat and humidity.

I also am assuming you mean the worst themed and not the longest ...
I would vote for Philharmagic. It's like a bunch of blue curtains hung around with a few little decorations hung up. Quite lame, if you ask me.

If we're talking as of right now...then it's Dumbo. There's just nothing to it save for those odd clown thingies and mirrors for youngsters to get distracted by and slow the line down.

I agree. The posters are kind of funny but it really looks like they took some fabric and a staple gun and went to town. Plus right when you get your "opera glasses" the ply-wood floor bounces and feels like its going to break.

This opinion is based on my visit last month. The worst queue for me would have been Big Thunder Mountain. I had to ride it after dark because there was no way I could stand in the sun at the start of the line. It was bad enough at night, there is no air movement or breeze in there and those lines are packed pretty tight with hot,sweaty bodies.
The other wait that was almost unbearable was sitting and waiting for Beauty and the Beast at HS. It was 1040 am and we were waiting for the 1rst show of the day. They had fans blowing air but it did no good. Wow. I've never felt so hot in my life and it wasn't even the hottest part of the day yet.
Any queue that was air conditioned and out of the sun was fabulous with me.

My least favorite queues are Test Track and Winnie the Pooh, both mostly because of the sounds. I start getting a headache after just a few minutes of the banging and clanging in Test Track and the constantly repeated "Ta ta for now!" in Pooh!
I also agree with those who said Peter Pan...what a looooong, boring queue to wait in (even though it is one of my favorite rides in MK! )

Is Backlot tour a ride or a show? If you consider it a ride, it gets my vote ... multiple rows of inclined concrete and no breeze is not fun.
If not a ride, then I would go with Tomorrowland Speedway ... the exhaust fumes

Most unimaginative: Peter Pan, tied with Spaceship Earth
Most ANNOYING: Test Track
Most boring: Tomorrowland Rockets, because you can't even watch the ride while you are waiting.

Peter Pan for sure! It moves so slowly for a continuous moving ride.

Gotta agree with you that one -yikes - bang bang bang and I'm ready to throw myself in front of the next car.
Speaking of cars.... my next least favorite would be Tomorrowland Speedway. Noisy and toxic beyond belief.

I find the queue for test track painful - the banging and the siren.

My vote is the Winnie the Pooh ride, not just because it's one of the back and forth, through the chains, non-themed amusement park queues, but because it's psychological torture to move only a few feet every five minutes while Fastpass people are moved through. So of course I will only ride if I can get a FP for it.
