I can see redoing the descent but they will probably ruin what is one of the best dark rides at Disney. Certainly, the best remaining at Epcot. Rat is a good ride but can't compare to SE.
Back in the day, the original SSE was awesome. Lost the decent (tomorrows child) and other things along the way. Hopefully they can get a decent refurb on this at some point.
