There are so many awesome rides at IOA. The Hulk and Dueling Dragons are among the best coasters in the world, Spiderman is arguably the best simulator, and the water rides of Toon Lagoon are great. Which ride at IOA is the best?
Oh, yeah. We all know how the moderators feel about this kind of thread, but I think it's a good topic. Just, ya know, keep it under control. :)

If it has to be a Roller Coaster, My Vote goes to The Incredible Hulk
But for Best Overall Ride, It simply has to be Spiderman, The Ride is simply stunning, and just amazing. I was very impressed

Coaster: Hulk
Ride: Spiderman
Best out of all the rides/coasters at IOA: Spiderman -- the ride is simply incredible. Is this is only ride to merge live action effects(i.e. sparks/flames/etc.) with 3D movies? Not to mention the fact that the car moves perfectly with the 3D... wow.. I was blown away totally.

I thought the best ride was Incredible Hulk. Spiderman close behind in 2nd and Ripsaw Falls a distant 3rd.

I think the best coaster is the Fire Dragon, hands down. I'd even say it's the best inverted period. I like the Hulk, but I think it'd be better w/out the launch -- lift hills are great.
As for Spiderman, I'm probably the only Coasterbuzz member that would say it's a disappointment. I just didn't find it that thrilling; it had its good parts but I kept waiting for that really great section of the ride and it never came.

1. Hulk-The launch is great!
2. Fire Dragon-I like the loop-helix combo.
3. Ice Dragon-Cool near misses.
4. Spiderman-Amazing effects.
5. Dr. Doom-I thought the story of the movie was clever.
6. Jurassic Park-The end is the best. ;)
7. Pteranadon Flyers-Fun little things.
I didn't get to ride the other two water rides.

LOL If it didn't have the launch I don't think it would make it up the cobra roll. Seriously that thing is huge!

Best start to a ride ever!
As for my fav ride, I'd have to say Fire Dragon followed closely by Hulk. Fire Dragon packs a lot of intensity and Hulk's dive roll is amazing. There really isn't a bad ride at IOA.

I would have to say Ripsaw falls but only by a very narrow margin over Spiderman, Hulk and the dragons. All are awesome rides but I never would have imagined that a flume ride could be that intense. Way to go Dudley

All time Top 5: (1) Milleniun Force (2) Alpengeist (3) Hulk (4) Ice Dragon (5) Raptor

I am among the few that like Ice Dragon better than Fire. In the back, you get whipped down the first drop way faster than you should, the zero-G roll is great, and you get the best foot chopper ever on that. I like how Ice takes the time to set up each element before executing it. Also, Ice is definitely smoother than Fire. The Immelman elements on Fire don't do much for me, nor do the corkscrews. I must say I do love that camel hump for airtime.
Well if you asked me what was the best ride at USF/IOA I would actually say Men in Black: Alien Attack, but since you only asked about IOA I would have to say Fire Dragon, followed by Dr. Doom and Dudley. Hulk didnt do much for me and Spidey got boring by the third ride.

I didn't say I didn't like the launch, I just like lift hills more. The buildup to the actual ride is what makes them worth it. The Hulk is good, but it could be better. But I'll agree that IOA doesn't have any bad rides.
My pick goes for Fire Dragon. That thing is paced just right from beginning to end. And the immelmann/helix element is insane!
I found Hulk to be lacking, actually. The launch was great, but everything after the tunnel seemed boring to me. Especially all of those turns just before and after the block brake.
