I am glad I read this thread and especially watched the comparison videos in post #273 of FEA vs. Maelstrom.
For me, this ride is a great disappointment. It appears to be a similar experience to the Under the Sea ride. Yes, classic Disney "dark ride" suitable for everyone. But, just a simple ride through of disconnected sets, with some of the music and animatronics similar to those from 1950.
What makes it special? What senses are stimulated? Does it snow? Is it cold/winter in sections? then warms at the end?
Having just returned from USF and the new HP land, London, Hogwarts Express, Gringotts, Diagon Ally, Nocturn Ally...WOW Factor!
Don't get me wrong, I am a huge Disney fan, but I think that Walt would have dreamed even bigger than this ride.
