As I was walking past Poseidon's Fury, thinking that the show could be quite a bit better, I realized that the facade is just so incredible that it almost doesn't even matter that the experience on the inside isn't the greatest thing ever...it's so cool to look at.

I realized that IoA is just full of great facades, as are many theme parks. I thought it'd be interesting to hear what everyone thinks are the best facades out there. I know this is Orlando United, and even though I don't think any parks outside of Florida have great facades, you can include any theme park facades. I'll make my list to start, but I know I'm probably forgetting a ton.

-Poseidon's Fury
-Radiator Springs Racers
-Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey (would be number 1 if so much of that darn showbuilding wasn't visible)
-Expedition Everest
-Haunted Mansion (MK)
-Ripsaw Falls
-Tower of Terror

Oh yes, I wholeheartedly agree with your opinion on Poseidon's Fury, and the rest of the attractions you posted as well. I believe some other great ones are:

- Journey to the Center of the Earth
- Splash Mountain
- Tower of Terror (Tokyo DisneySea)
- The Great Movie Ride
- Indiana Jones Adventure

The Little Mermaid's facade at MK looks great, even if I hate the ride.

^yeah those are all some really great ones too, but I'll have to disagree on Tower of Terror at DisneySea. It's impressive but I always thought it was kinda tacky and stuck out. Even if it is still a very awesome facade.

Poseidon's Fury is a great facade, and also Dudley, Forbidden Journery (of course), Splash, and Mythos! You didn't just say rides! :thumbs:

It may not be the best, but I'm really happy USF did a cool facade for DM:MM.
