    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.

    Carousel of Progress - a platform by a slowly spinning building with a sign and a poster. Not that the queue is important; there's never any real wait.

    Maelstrom and soarin.
    of course, the queues for Dumbo, the caroussel and the tea cups are not very fun but what could you do more...

    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.

    Because the landscape art becomes interactive games. It didn't last time I was there, but it did the time before that. Are the games still working or did they change it again?

    When I was there in February, it was a game, then about 5 different pictures of the "art," then another game, and so on.

    Ok I loathe waiting for cars in MK. The exhaust fumes combined with the heat gives me a bad headache. Now I also hate the Nemo line. Not becuase its unattractive but theres never anyone in there and you have to walk and walk what seems like forever around and around till you get to the ride. Thats my experience with it every time we go. If the line is ever at the door for Nemo there is no way I am getting in it!

    I have never seen any interactivity. Just some abstract-ish modern art that changes every so often.

    no kidding!

    dull, unimaginative, and a VERY long wait! i would say that the Mad Tea Party would be a close second, but then again there is no queue area whatsoever...

    I don't recall when I last did the Indy raceway, but I do recall that it was hot, noisy, and smelly.....but without Fast Passes, the most poorly planned, and boring queue of all is Soaring...just getting to the start of the queue is a problem. For the Imagineer who suggested it, and for the executive who ok'ed it, ....What were they thinking! Just putting the queue entrance on the upper level instead of the lower level would have made much more sense, and obviously would not have changed the design nor increased the cost very much. And, yes, the exit could still be at the lower level...

    My vote goes to Test Track. Yikes. It's very annoying.

    and...in defense of the Soarin' queue...everytime we've been in the stand-by line, we've played the interactive games. Kind of fun when everyone wants to play. No so fun when only a few people are into it. I actually like the art, too.
    Nice work, pal.
