When reading these forum's ive noticed that people generally seem to think that the creation of Space Moutain Mission 2 was a bad decision. Sorry if this has already been discussed, I was just wondering what were the main differences between this version and the original and why you preferred the original?

Yeah, feel free to discuss this in the official SM:M2 topic. I'll close this one.

But generally, it comes from the feeling that Imagineering destroyed the original attraction's soul, it's time-specific Jules Verne theme, in favour of a much more modern and -- here comes the dreaded word -- "relevant" sequel.

In fact, I think SM:M2 is a better ride than SM, which I was never that impressed with. Better launch, a lot to see inside (when it's working) and issues with the queue solved (it never made sense that you looked into "space", even if it was interesting). It just feels a bit all over the place, there's no heart to pull it together like the Jules Verne story did.
