Pros: Um, um...give me a minute...um
Cons: Too jerky, jumpy, and dark with few visuals to follow what is happening around you.
Summary: By the time I got around to riding on Dinosaur on my trip to Disney World last year, it was just one friend and myself. This friend is a steady companion at Disneyland here in California. The importance of all this will be explained ...

Pros: Interesting history prior to ride
Cons: If you are scared of dinosaurs or reptiles avoid this ride. Jerky motions and dark.
Summary: Ok I'm not one to admit when I am scared out of my mind but this ride was super scary. If you are not a fan of dinosaurs, apparently I am not, this is not the ride for you. When you wait in line you will get to see the dinosaur artifacts and there is a ...

Pros: Fun, thrilling, a great time.
Cons: Can be scary and cause motion sickness.
Summary: Dinosaur is properly placed in the Dinoland USA section in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World. This attraction is really a hidden gem among the rest of Dinoland and can be found to the very back of this area. Dinosaur is the original ...

Pros: none for me; it will probably appeal to roller coaster fans
Cons: fast, jerky, diagonally downward movement, dark, started ride without seat belts fastened, staff misrepresents ride
Summary: I don't like roller coasters. I'm afraid of heights, I'm not fond of fast sharp turns, and I certainly don't find hanging upside down with twenty strangers the least bit appealing. I avoid roller coasters like the plague, even ones that are supposedly ...

Pros: Fast Paced, Realistic, Thrilling
Cons: Not suitable for most small children, very rough cars
Summary: I was an adult the first time I rode Dinosaur. I have been on tons of thrill rides. I have never not went on a scary ride. I was expecting this to be just like all the other Disney rides: Fun with amazing animitronics, but not at all thrilling. Boy was I ...

Pros: Dino Institute theming is good. Features largest animatronics to date.
Cons: Wish they'd teamed with Universal Studios on this one. $17 for a picture
Summary: I have not seen the movie Dinosaur. I have seen Jurrasic Park, JP2 and JP3. I have not been on the Jurassic Park water ride at Universal Studios. I have ridden on the Indiana Jones ride as Disneyland a lot.
Why is this important?

Pros: Very exciting. Gives riders chance to laugh at themselves.
Cons: VERY rough. Not as scary as it used to be. Dark and loud.
Summary: Countdown to Extinction (now renamed Dinosaur after the Disney film of the same name) is one of the few rides offered at the Animal Kingdom. On my first visit to the park, I had little to no idea what the ride was like, and wondered why there was no...

Pros: Fast-paced and thrilling
Cons: Tamed down version inferior to original yet still too scary and rough for small children
Summary: Dinosaur, as Countdown to Extinction is now known, is a first class thrill ride with great animatronic Dinosaurs, surprising effects and good theming.
Your journey to the Dino Institute begins, as with all Disney attractions, with the queue,...

Pros: An exciting ride for adults that is not as scary as roller coasters
Cons: Not a good idea for small children.
Summary: Dinosaur, formerly know as Countdown to Extinction, which I think is a better name, is a very thrilling ride. I am a chicken when it comes to roller coasters or rides like Tower of Terror but this one I can handle. You enter the "Dino Institute" and are...

Pros: You don't have to ride it
Cons: dark, bouncy, & no fun
Summary: I cannot stress this enough -- don't waste your time with this ride! My wife and I rode it on our last trip to WDW and were very disappointed. The ride is set up as a "back-in-time to save a dinosaur" ride. It's rather realistic.

Pros: Great special effects
Cons: Scary for younger children
Summary: This was a great ride for older children, but be wary if you have young school-age children. You truly feel like you are traveling back in time as you progress through the ride(with lots of bumps, jerks and squeals of laughter--and fright!) To combat a...
