We leave in a few days and I was just looking at the app and it shows that the Frozen characters have moved to Stage 17 and out of them Animation Academy. I just want to confirm this? And it inside Stage 17 or in the little outside area where Olaf has been?

I thought I had read about Guardian of the Galaxy meet & greets. Are there any and are they more roaming characters or so they have a set spot?

Same with Jack Sparrow over in DL? He's roaming? Does he sign autographs? Is he still meeting? I saw a report from a few weeks ago but wasn't sure if it was just for the release of the movie.

And this might be common knowledge, but Moana is back on the app as a set meet & greet.
 
The Animation building is closed. They still have AA drawing, but you enter through the exit. They're using the area where Olaf was meeting outside a line, but the characters were inside.

Thanks! Didn't realize the building was closed. But glad to know we can still do the drawing - it's a favorite of ours!

There is a Guardians Dance Party where you can see the characters. After the party Groot meets. I've seen some information online about the best way to meet him quickly afterwards. It's basically getting in line to see him and not watching the show. The other Guardians characters are not meeting, only dancing. Black Widow though is having some kind of M&G where she drives in an armored vehicle and then gets out to meet. Spider Man and Captain America are both still meeting too.

We saw Jack, he paused for a picture with oldest. He's roaming and roaming characters won't sign usually. Peter Pan also is a common roamer in Fantasyland, but he might sign, maybe...We met Burt and Pip the Penguin during our last visit and they were doing an actual meet and greet.
 

Guardians (Star Lord and Gamora) do a dance party in front of the ride at set times. Immediately afterwards, there is a Groot meet, but there is no personal meet with any of the others.

I thought Animation was only supposed to be closed through June 2. Is it still closed? If so, have they announced a date when it will reopen?

It was still closed yesterday; I asked a cast member who said "hopefully later this month."

We saw Jack this morning right by PotC. He is indeed a roamer. He does not sign, and will not stay in one place long, but will let you walk with him.

Huh, I'm still not seeing Moana. You're seeing this in the list of characters?

She was on the app yesterday, in her Adventureland spot, but I just went and looked this morning and she's not there. But I know she was on the app yesterday!

This is making is very hard for me to decide what day to wear my Moana t-shirt. :laughing:
 
I was there last week.

Moana was on the app most days not not all.

We saw Jack Sparrow wandering around. He stopped for a photo. We saw him signing an autograph later that day but I think you would have to make it really quick and easy for the roaming characters to sign.

For Frozen the line is right where Olaf met a year or so ago outside. Now almost the entire line is outside (so what you see is almost the entire line) is was SO SLOW though for us. And I've been in a lot of these lines. Inside there are two areas. One had Olaf and Kristoff. The other was Anna and Elsa.

We were able to get into a pretty short line for Groot after the dance party was done (meaning after Star Lord and Gamora had left). The day before we had seen a HUGE Groot line. Groot stays to take photos for quite some time afterwards it seemed to us.

Thank you for the detailed answers! This helps a lot. One more question- once inside the Frozen area do you move from one to the other or do you pick which of the two pairs you want to see?

When they were in the Amination Academy building, you moved one to the next.
