Wow, completely disagree about Test Track. It's by far one of my least favorite redos. Was good for one ride, and now I'm bored with it. The designing a car part is not fun and doesn't really seem to impact your ride at all (if it's even working). The "Tron-like" setting like other Epcot future looks felt dated soon after. Give me the original with the fun ride instruction video and "practical" setting. It was understood by everyone that rode. The new designing a car theme is way too overly complicated to understand on the ride.

I also think the change from California Screamin’ to Incredicoaster should also be on this list. Yes, there are no animatronics (just static figures), but the ride now has a story and isn’t just a generic, boring coaster anymore and it also has a soundtrack that improves on the original (although we will forever miss the California Screamin’ soundtrack).

The Little Mermaid is still a super cheesey, laughable ride. Never a line to see it. List was solid until then.

Nothing about the awesome plussing of the Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom?? The new staircase area replacing the giant spiders is absolutely amazing. Not to mention the new bride in the attic and the interactive hitchhiking ghosts. Yes, I know that there were mixed reactions to the new interactive queue, but it works for the most part. Overall, the new Haunted Mansion is the way plussing a Disney ride should always be like!

Seconded. The refresh of the Florida Haunted Mansion was absolutely top-notch.

Ummm... Pirates? Let me be honest. I, like nearly everyone, was against the idea of Sparrow and Barboza being added to the ride. However, my opinion changed immediately when I first went on it saw how well they fit in. I was expecting this change to top the list.
