so much fun! my favorite part about it is letting yourself loose in the cart and letting your body slide side to side! lol it enhances the intensity and makes it more fun!

Pros:

speed, hills/drops, cool visuals, runs in the rain, wait time is mostly never TOO high if you ride at the right times, fun for kids and adults

Cons:

none, its very enjoyable

Pros:

exciting ride

Cons:

needs the Disneyland updates!

I have always loved BTMR...always a go-to when we go to WDW. We didn't get a LL for this one; but the wait wasn't that terrible. It kept moving at a nice pace. Plenty to see in line so not a bad wait.

Pros:

Very fun ride, scenery is nice. Line moves at a good pace.

Cons:

Lines are mostly outside in the sun; but other than that, good ride.

This one’s awesome! One of my faves. It’s the perfect amount of time, has many sudden drops and stops, and overall it’s just a really fun ride. Fun fact: when you exit your train, take a look at the very front of it. Each one has its own name, like U.B. (Something), or I.M. (Something). It’s a cool detail. I recommend this ride, especially if you’re a thrill seeker. The line can get long though, so get a LL or Rope Drop this one.

Pros:

Experience, fun fact, details

Cons:

Long line

This was a great coaster! We went on it after the fireworks and you have beautiful views of the lit up castle. My 8 year old loved it too so it’s not too scary. It whips you around but not enough to make it uncomfortable.

Pros:

Thrilling but not too scary

Cons:

Whips you around
