Best queue line for any ride

Well the themed ones are the best and Disney takes the cake when it comes to theming. So i'll have to say The Haunted Mansion in Disney World. That room with the paintings is just amazing.

theres been lots of topics about this. im not going to go searching but someone else can. my favorites are tower of terror and spiderman. the best themed is of course dueling dragons but its too long for the lines it always has so i dont like it anymore.

I think the best overall queue I've been in is either Hulk or Space Mountain. Not too long, and some theming, and a good look.

I really enjoyed Tomb Raider's queue line. Awesome themeing, plus it was really cold when I went and it was heated in there so that was nice.

I'm hoping you are being sarcastic. That small, sweaty, hot, sewer tube sucks.


Space Mountain is my favorite. The darkness messes up my eyes.

MF or S:RoS. Knowing you're about to get on the world's greatest coaster is the best feeling of all.

The one in disney world is good. I mean with all the special affects (old school) it is pretty entertaining. Actually now that i think about it every Disney ride has a great queue line.

Got to agree on that. I worked at Disney for 5 months and played at the parks down there. Haunted Mansion at Magic Kingdom is great. I have to say the only ride i never went on was Space Mountin Dont know why, just never got to there.

Oh cut it with the poetic crap. You know you're pulling your own leg. MF's queue is literally set up in a rat maze formation.

It would definatly have to be Test Track in Epcot. It really sets up the mood and something always seems to startle someone. Too bad the music is midley annoying, but when you get to see stuff get smashed it is all good.

I still don't see what's so good about the Space Mountain queue...the only mildly interesting things are the pics that turn or whatever...

Magic Kingdom has some of the cutest rides. It dosn't matter how old you are, once you go to Disney, your a kid once again.

I like the queue lines that give you a little show or i guess an introduction. A lot of Disney queue lines do that but one i can remember in particular was Terminator2: the show at Universal Studios Florida. I like those queue lines

O also another one i remembered that was pretty good. The King Kong ride at Universal Studios. That has a great queue line.

The big long dark hall that you walk through with all those pics on the sides are awesome. Plus the loading area is pretty cool.

Yea i like the loading area too. I love the fact that you stop and get too see all the people waiting on the line aside of you. I love laughing at them saying you have about 30 min to go before you get to ride what im riding.

Wow. I hope you're kidding. Which Small World are you talking about? I've been on the Orlando one, and it's just basically a ramp leading down to the place where you board the boats. Not too exciting. That song playing over and over tends to want me to strangle someone.

I think we can all agree that Disney has the best queue lines. They really know how to keep their guests occupied while waiting very long for a good ride.
