WHICH ONE? Indiana Jones or Space MOUNTAIN??

[junglecruise3]

I recently wondered which ride is better, Indiana jONES OR Space Mountain.
What do you think???

[barfownz]

indy, you can see more things. you have a better adventure in that ride too

[junglecruise3]

I dont know, space mountain has gotten a lot better!!!!!

[TowerGal_13]

How dare you ask me that... I have no clue!!! oh poo, Indy.

[111702]

First of all, I must say...YOU START A LOT OF THREADS!:icon_shoc

Second, do you know how to make a poll?:icon_roll

Third, I have no idea.:icon_conf

First of all, I must say...YOU START A LOT OF THREADS!:icon_shoc




most of it is spam and he should be warn (prolbably a little kid)

[WendyDarling1955]

hmm.. Indy or Space?? Well Indy has a really awesome theme and more detailed queue..... but space is fun andin the dark and fast.. Hmm I think I will go with.... POTC! hehe Just kidding... I'll go with Indy! :icon_lol:

[Disneyland_Wolf]

Indy! hands down.

[Lion Sleeps Tonight]

They're both fun and good in their own rights. I woudn't even try and compare them.

[Atlantis21]

Hard choice, both great rides. But my personal preferance would lean much more toward Space Mountain.

[Space Rangerlvl999]

Space mountain:

Cool special effects
Huge enviorment
Awesome music
very fast
very smooth

INDIANA JONES:
Vey cool special effects
very rough (that makes it fun!)
Cool animatroonic of Indy
The boulder effect
The laser that comes of Mara's eye

I have no clue which is better
But I like space mountain a bit better.

[napoleon]

The best story line wins, And that is Indiana Jones.

[junglecruise3]

Space mountain rules!! So does Indiand JOnes! But space might win.

[TopCat8]

I cant' decide, but if I really had to, I'd pick ummm...Space, no Indy, no Space: I can't decide.:frown:

[JDUB]

There is no way to pick one.They are both among the best of the best at Disneyland.
Without either one Disneyland would not be the same.

[azbob19]

I have to go with Indy!

[pixiedreams4ever]

How can you compare the two at all, they are both thrill rides, but I think one you ride for the rush, the other has a bit of a rush but more of a story.

[Brer Rabbit]

I love both rides!!! But I have to go with Space Mountain.

[lablkilz699]

its kind of like choosing one child over another...its near impossible....but i guess its possible...i know i could never do it though....

[PeoplemoverMatt]

Which one do I have a FastPass for? :tongue:

-- Peoplemover "Didn't think of that one did ya? :smile: " Matt

[Fantasmic!kid]

I'd have to say Indy, because I've been on a ride like it.

[HiddenMickey]

I like Space Mountain better, but IJA is def. fun!

[protostars]

check my sig..... but IJA is a close 2nd!!!

[Indy #1 Fan]

In Indy, the qeue is more interesting, especially the spike room. I'd go with Indy because there are things trying to get you and you are rescued by the world-famous archaeologist himself.

[Space Mountain Mike]

Take a wild guess.....

[DLRgoer]

Indiana Jones! There is no question about it, hands down!

[SilentMickey]

I have to go with Indy. although the Indy animatronics could use a refurb.

[Ratty12345]

There's no contest, Indiana Jones all the way.

[JasperGein17121]

I love both! But I will have to choose Indy, because I'm a big fan of Indiana Jones.

[Mighty Unicorn]

I would say Indy, but... That SMELL... What is that supposed to be, anyway? It probably is supposed to smell like an old tomb or something, but it actually smells like a reuben sandwich that has been sitting in the sun for a few days, LOL! The smell is just too sharp and synthetic. I wonder who decided that it was bearable in the first place. YUK!!!

So, for the sheer enjoyability of the ride, Space Mountain has to take the prize. As long as there's no line, that is. The queue is so much more beautiful on Indy.

Okay, now Indy is better.

Hans the wishy-washy Disney fan

[Disneyland_Wolf]

The smell in Indy is called the "Smell of Fear" MUHAHAHA!!!! ;) That smell in the temple is supposed to make the tourists afraid.

[Space Mountain Mike]

My friend had a burger in his trunk in the summer for about a week. They should have used that

[Spaceandthemountain]

I think Indiana Jones is okay, it's a little boring, but Space Mountain isn't a thrilling ride either, but I think I'll go with Indiana Jones, it is longer and has more to look at that white dots on the side of a building and ugly coaster machinery crammed together.

[Space Mountain Mike]

It's actually kind of difficult to see the coaster machinery because it's so dark, but then Indy is also dark.

I think that's more true of the other place (http://www.sixflags.com/magicmountain) "hey look an orange rollercoaster, hey look, that one is BLUE. Gee, such imagination and variety. Sorry I'm getting off track. No pun intended

[disneyfreak59]

^ i'll hafta say amen to that. hehehe i like the smell of indy, and space mountain just rocks my socks off, but so does indy. they're both top on my list.

[PeoplemoverMatt]

Well y'know, if Indy was some astronaut escaping from some clear-walled Temple in outer space, there wouldn't be much difference between them. :tongue:

-- Peoplemover "This really isn't a fair comparison" Matt

[kmoen@molalla.net]

I would have to go wtih Indy!

[Spaceandthemountain]

No offense intended sorry if i do.. but having a name like that i would respect that ride a lil more than you just did.

What are you trying to say? I DON'T like Space Mountain? I am offended! You did intend to say that. jk. I do like Space Mountain, it's tied for first in my top 5. I love Space Mountain....

[Pirate Boy]

indiana jones

[Sonic]

Whichever breaks down the least j/k I'll have to go with Indy becuse you're not just moving along the track you're actual vehicle is bouning like crazy!!!

[damxcnsxcn]

Indy!

[Taxx]

As much as I looooooooooooove Indiana Jones, the new space mountain has dethroned indy as my favorite ride.


In the immortal words of Sallah...

"Sorry Indy"

[Grimezy15]

Indy all the way.
-more of an adventure
-Gr8 qeue
-more to see
-in the best Land
-ETC ETC:old_wink:

[WendyDarling1955]

I love both, but I would have to say Indi is my favorite out of those 2. The queue is soo much better and the ride is so much more interactive.

[kodiak]

well.... i love indiana jones. so the ride is naturally even more thrilling. I like how you are thrown into the story. you become part of the experience. not just another coaster.

[ClassicDisney]

Psh Indy is better than space mountain... Space Mountain is still exactly the same. While it is a great ride, it just isn't astonishing enough to get my vote. Indy was a ground breaking new type of ride... it hadn't been done before, and has only been used in other disneyland parks (i think)... Space Mountain, although newly refurbished and with an awesome soundtrack, doesn't have much going for it. Like someone said, it is just a crammed up track with white lights... I mean i could do that at my house with some boards a wagon and a disco ball. There is just no comparison. Indiana Jones just blows my mind. It has fire... inside of the ride... and a BUBBLING lava pit. Not to menion one of the best themed qeue lines ever. It has little hidden things from all of the movies and just fits everything so perfectly. As for space mountain... Its themed yes... but, I think they should have made the qeue line more like mission space. They should have looked at real space station pictures, and made things more realistic... right now they seem like a disney space sci- fi film, especially since the qeue didn't change, and that stupid mission control thing is still hanging in the middle of the ceiling. GO INDY GO!

[rissaroo51]

Indy all the way baby!!

[dctrdez]

Incomparable, they are two completely different rides with two different stories. It's like trying to decide what you would have more fun with: a Ferrari or a monster truck? They both are fun, but in different ways.

*Cough* Indy *cough*

[disneyguy]

SPACE MOUNTAIN

[arrowfanman]

Uh...Indy.

There...that wasn't too hard.

[disneylover]

Even though Indy's overall theming is much better then Space IMHO, I have to go with Space Mountain. I get much more of a rush on Space then I ever have on Indy.:tongue: Hard to compare the two though;)

[CLASSIC HM]

I don't know, I haven't been on Space Mountain since December 15th, 2000.

[disney_hopper]

Hard choice, but better RIDE: Space Mountain. Better themeing and all around better attraction: Indy.

[kennyrules]

Exactly my thoughts. I love the ride on Space Mountain, because it's fast and I feel it's more worth the wait. The first time you go on Indy, though, you're just amazed and you have to ride it again because you know you didn't see everything.

[volcomnator999]

umm i dont know ....i think that both of them are one of the best of indy...i always try to go to Indy when i enter the park...and space mountain i always get a fastpass...i refuse to stand in line for it lol..but yeah indy then space mountain

[jccarebear]

i'm gonna go with indy... only because it's a big thing in my family :)

[taronga]

I'm going with Indy, only because i never got to ride Space when i was at the park last December '04.

Why don't we have a Disney park in Australia yet??

[Disneyland05]

I go for is Indiana Jones it cool.

[protostars]

Uh...Indy.

There...that wasn't too hard.

I guess you should change your SM avatar then!!! :eek:

[disneyfreak01]

this is hard
they both are great rides
if i had to choose it would probably be indy
but i havent rode space mountain v2.0 yet so maybe ill change my mind
well see when i go on thursday

[Indyjohn]

I am going to have to go with Indiana Jones because they took out the Dick Dale soundtrack on Space Mountain and Indy is worth going on more than once. The whole thing of taking the Dick Dale soundtrack out on Space Mountain in my opinion was unnecessary. I want to know why they changed it.

[Mistikal]

It's hard to compare these two rides but I would have to stick with my favorite ride and that is Space Mountain people...

[RollingBoulder]

Indy for sure. When you think about it, most of Space Mountain is in the dark with nothing to look at. Although Space Mountain is a close second for me for the thrill factor.

[azbob19]

Space Mountain is better in my opinion.

[MidnightMagic]

Space Mountain for sureeee... But I do like POTC :)
And Cali Screamin and Maliboomer, for thrills!

[mkextr]

can't decide. Like them both, but I like Space Mountain because its nice and cool inside. They're both Fun!

[tomserwin]

No thought required: Indy all the way.

[princesschloe777]

WEll since you are asking Between SPACE AND INDY.

OH MAN that is a no brainer- INDY ALL THE WAY.

I really don't like the new space mountain, and I have always favored INDY. SO for sure INDIANA JONES!

[ryguy222]

I honestly don't think you can compare these two, they are way to different. SM has speed thrills, and somewhat of an adventure, while indy has some thrills not much speed and big adventure. I pick both!

[Disney_Guy]

In my opinion, Space Mountain is better. Infact, Space Mountain is my all-time favorite ride. But.. Indy closely follows behind it.. It is always hard not to favor that ride, as they are both superb rides.

[crystaltink]

As much as I love SM. I'm goin to have to go with Indy. Space is one of my favorite rides, but it doesn't have the "let's go on it again, and again, and again" factor that Indy has. I can ride SM a couple of times during the day. But with Indy I can hop on it over and over again through out the day and I never get tired of it.

[CLASSIC HM]

I consider both Space Mountain and Indiana Jones equal because they're in the "Top Five". And I like the "Space Mountain--New Daytime Track" in Space Mountain. Indiana Jones is cool because it was rough like what the Rocket Rods used to be.

[adrianne]

I honestly don't think you can compare these two, they are way to different. SM has speed thrills, and somewhat of an adventure, while indy has some thrills not much speed and big adventure. I pick both!

Applause, Applause! My thoughts exactly!

[islandchica]

I love them both very much but I think I'd have to go with Indy. It's just so detailed and cool.

[Fantasmic!kid]

Both were awesome!!! But, Space Mountain beat out....Indy kept breaking down.


~:mickey:

[DisneyJunkie]

I'm gonna have to say space MTN.. i mean i like indy and the Que is amazing.. but space is cool too... I think i just like walking to space up the QUE line on top of the bulding into the tunnel then into the launch station... Really sets the mood... i Think indy needs to fix some things and maybe get a refub on the que put more stuff to do.

[Mick Balboa]

Indiana Jones hands down, both rides are okay when not being compared, but when I have to choose there's no contest. Plus, the whole runaway jeep feeling is awesome. Space also isn't as themed.

[tomserwin]

This is the way I look at it:

What if Disney said "OK, listen up people!! Today we decided to blow up an attraction, but we can't decide between Space Mountain and the Indiana Jones Adventure. So you all riot and duke it out old school."

Which would you fight to defend?

[toratorakisa]

Indiana Jones! I love it because of the story and all of the little details! (I know that Space has lots of little details too, but what about the cool story?) I think that I could ride Indiana Jones over and over and oever again because it's one of those rides where you can see the people next to you and just enjoy their facial expressions and hear them screaming like crazy.

Space is awesome too, it's just that my heart belongs to Indy. :D

I wouldn't be able to decide which one. I love both of them.

Indiana Jones Adventures and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye is a great attraction that has a great theme and has parts in it that interacts with you so that you wouldn't be bored waiting. Of course, the attraction involves you right in the beginning when you enter the queue. Those are the great things about this attraction.

Space Mountain has always been a crowd favorite. For those of you who said that it's dark, all I have to say is that you're in a rocket going through space. It's suppose to be dark and it's a cool effect having the stars moving around. It's a well-themed attraction that has a great feeling and music.

It's just too difficult for me to decide which attraction is better.

[Lostboyfan]

I would have to go with Space Mountian.

[ImtheMadHatter]

hmmm thats a hard one.....how about HTH!!!!

[IndyJonesfan#1]

Indy Jones, Indy Jones, INDY JONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bbt931]

Wow.......I think my brain might explode if I think about this one any longer.

It's a very difficult decision, and I feel an obligation to say both, because I'd feel bad if I chose one over the other. It's like trying to chose between ice cream and mashed potatoes, I really like them both, and it's simply impossible to decide between the two.

Indy is extremely exciting. It gives you this sense of adventure that you can't experience in day to day life. It's creative and fascinating. The ride is very well done, and it's complexity is mind-boggling, I mean for heavens sake it has 160,000 different ride combinations!

Space Mountain is, and will always be a classic. It's very thrilling, and and an excellent roller coaster. It's remained popular among Disneyland guests for a very long time, and is the favorite ride of many people. I would definitely feel a loss if Space Mountain were to disappear. I mean, how many roller coasters go through outer space!?

I can't decide, it's completely impossible. I love each ride equally and I'd never be able to choose.

[mrhappybomb]

Indiana Jones for me I like Space and all but to me just barely escaping an old acient temple is just more fun to me

[Datameister]

Wow! Of all the impossible-to-answer threads I've answered lately, I think this one takes the cake. These two are quite possibly my top favorites at DLR--I've been known to ride each one two to four times in one day if given the chance. I'd be devastated if either were ever removed, but I guess I'd have to say that loss of Indy would be slightly more devastating for me--simply because it'd be a harder experience to recreate. Space Mountain is an incredible experience. I rode it four times last time I was there, and happily would have ridden a fifth time. The intermingled senses of creepiness and adventuresomeness and wonderment and fear are simply mind-blowing, and the ride itself is quite a thrill. I love swooping through the dark with the cold wind in my hair.

But...and I HATE saying this...it's not quite so unique an experience as Indy. While on a given day I may enjoy SM more than Indy, it's the latter that features the most unique and involved theming. TDL's version is different in numerous ways, making ours truly unique. Space Mountain exists in four similar-but-different incarnations. I've only ridden the Disneyland version, though I've extensively researched the others, and I have to say that while Disneyland's version will always be unbelievably special to me, I would still be able to get a somewhat comparable experience at WDW, TDL, or HKDL. DLP...well, that's a different beast, and one that I fear I may terrifiedly take on someday...

Anyway, I guess I'd have to say Indy is my choice for this thread. But saying such things feels like stabbing a dearly beloved friend in the back. :(
