STITCH'S GREAT ESCAPE Full HD Ride - Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom

[@ghoulbusters6805]

I understand some people found it a little scary but this was honest to god my FAVORITE ride as a child. It breaks my heart that it’s gone.

[@psychem7758]

For real though. The only reason why people shit on it, is because it replaced alien encounter, but as it’s own thing this ride was pretty enjoyable. Take away the cringe dialogue from the guest, and the Chili dog burp smell, I think it would’ve been a better attraction.

I gotta say, the animation is really impressive. Like a direct to DVD sequel, albeit, a very good one in the ranks of Lion King 2 and Cinderella 3. Why couldn’t Stitch! The Movie and Leroy and Stitch be more like that? Then again it was made by Disney TV animation, not DisneyToon and they were a pilot and ending to the tv series made on a television budget. The animatronic 90210 robot voiced by Richard Kind was a bit creepy, yet funny at the same time. Same with the Lt. Sludge and Stitch himself. But, alas, the ride will be missed, along with the fully rendered hand-drawn animated segments.

[@infjelphabasupporter8416]

I went to the Stitch ride when I was 6 and I remember every single thing. The moment I entered the huge room and sat down in the first row I knew something was off. I was crying to be let out before it even started but I was already strapped in. I felt that it was designed to be terrifying, the way you're so exposed but also so held there, the proportions in the room... I don't know. They'd tried to redesign it, but the essence of Alien Encounter was still there. I would have been scarred for life if it had been Alien Encounter, but now a part of me wishes I could ride the latter as an adult. If even with a bright, childish retheme, there was something about the structure of the ride that was still panic-inducing... The real Alien Encounter must have been incredible.

I remember been on this ride and when stitch jumps on your shoulders it really hurt me and the seat thing didn't go back up and every time he jumped the deeper it went into my shoulders.
