2nd tier fastpass+ choices for Epcot with teens?

[mtemm]

planning out our itinerary for Epcot since our FP+ time is approaching soon (end of July trip). I hope to get FEA for our top tier, so will rope drop tt and hit soarin' right after. Will do nemo as one of our 2nd tier fp+, but what would you recommend for the 3rd fp? Kids are teens if that makes a difference, and I'm not a huge fan of spaceship earth and think we can prob get on at night easily.

What is the Pixar movie like? Is there anything special to it?

For Tier 2 options, it doesn't much matter. Pick the rides you want to experience and get FPs for them. See the FP FAQ Post #8 Priorities and Tiers for some suggestions.

Quite honestly, I usually use Pixar as a 'throw-away fastpass' - I book it as one of my 3 fp+, usually at a timeslot before I plan on even arriving at the park or while I plan to be on line rope-dropping Test Track. I have never seen it - or any version of the short movie.

Disney makes me do it! I just try to get the tier-1 fp+ that I want and the other 2 tier-2 fp+ done right away, so that I can get on my MDE app asap and see if I can schedule a 4th fp for one of the Tier 1 rides. I do try and pick the attraction I think that attracts some of the lowest fp desirability (the short movie or maybe Ellen), so that I'm not wasting a pass that someone might actually want.

Otherwise, try Journey into Imagination or Crush.

I'd do Living with the Land

Pixar would be a waste of a FP. It's a nice 3 short story films though

Thanks! I wasn't sure what the Pixar thing was, if it was something special or just shorts. Not thaf they aren't special but something only doable at parks

Looking at the list I think I'll do turtle talk. Nothing else really jumps out and I know it's not necessary to FP+ but I also know my younger son will love it!

Can't wait till I can schedule these and stop fretting over getting them!

Living with the Land is interesting - both my teens enjoy it.

With teens, I'd definitely pick Mission: SPACE

My 14 yo always requests Mission space for one of our tier 2 FP.

Mission Space is down for refurb until July 29th. Hopefully the OP will still be there then. That would be a good choice for teens.

 

[mtemm]

My kids will NOT do mission space. Just not going to happen. And neither dh or I like it so it's not on the list. I do like the land and think the kids would find it interesting too so maybe that one instead of crush.
