Make sure you look for the key under the mat at Muppets 3D
And, A net Full of jello.
Oh, I will! I just love the Muppets! I want to spend some time in the gift shop too!
Little Mermaid runs pretty frequently. I have never had trouble getting into the show.
OK- I think you may have convinced me to give it a try!
Indiana Jones and cuteness just go hand in hand.
I have been drooling over her pictures all weekend! I can't wait!!!
Yes, he is a cutie. I may go see it since it's been years. And I can't wait for F&W either! Just read the article on allears you mentioned!
Let me know if you decide to book it! The more I read about it all, the more excited I am. There are over 500 DISers on that trip now! :woohoo
-Sounds Dangerous is.....lame. We did this in 06 and I remember Joe kinda looking at me, like "What the heck?" You sit in the dark with headphones on. It's not even funny. Really, a complete waste of space!
-I've never seen Beauty and the Beast or the Little Mermaid either! I hope to hit one in September.
-Sci Fi. I am looking forward to this! For the exact reason you mentioned-a cheeseburger! Yummmm! I hope it lives up to its cheeseburger hype.
-Tune in Lounge. I read that you can just order a shake at the bar, like their famous Peanut Butter & Jelly shake! You can even get them to go.
-Indiana Jones is pretty fun, if you haven't seen it in years it might be like it's new again to you. I read a tip on the DIS that if you stay until after the crowds leave you can go MEET Indy on stage.
I will let you know about the DIS cruise. It sure is tempting!
I hope the Sci Fi lives up to the cheeseburger hype too!
Maybe I'm nuts but the PB&J shake just doesn't sound appetizing to me at all.
But there are plenty of other concoctions I'd like to try there!
Okay C, Sounds Dangerous is still physically there, but they are closing it seasonally....aka almost all the time....because I think it is just NOT THAT FUNNY!!!! I think there is something better they could put there. Maybe they are working on perfecting that right now!!! I don't think you will have to bother with those, but VofLM is good---a must see at least once...even if you just want to sit in the A/C....and we also like catching the Beauty and the Beast show too! Enjoy!
Thanks Jen. I think I will try to catch at least one of the shows. Especially since there aren't too many rides I do in DHS. I'm going to be spending most of my time eating/drinking between Sci Fi and Brown Derby and possibly Tune In Lounge!
I know I commented very quickly yesterday, but figured I would do a longer reply today. (I am avoiding the laundry
).
You get my seal of approval on all of these!
Me too on the wimp thing although I can claim I rode ToT in 1998. LMA is on our must-do list for next time; Fantasmic I would love to see one day; Beauty and the Beast is amazing (it's like a mini-Broadway show and its success actually spurred the Disney company into going into musical theater); the rest I would skip, personally.
All of these sound fun
Ummm...although I hate to say it, if you have seen it once, that's probably enough.
Still a shell
.
I never watch the actual show, and I didn't regret not doing it this summer.
So happy to have the CP seal of approval!
And happy to help you avoid laundry! You did ride ToT once? And vowed never again?
Part of me wants to try but I don't know if I can do it. I am thinking about trying Everest this trip, though.
C:
I vote for the Lights, Motorcars, Action show. I think everyone should see this once. It is really good. I will admit, the second time I saw it I was much less impressed. It's one of those shows that is best the first time. Once they reveal how the stunts work, it loses some of its appeal.
I also vote for Beauty and the Beast. It is very nicely done.
I have never seen the Little Mermaid or done the Animation class. I plan to do these in September.
If you are going to be in the park at 7pm, then I recommend AI. The finale I saw was very, very good. But I like AI and I am a big fan of singing. But I have heard several people comment that even though they don't watch the show in real life, they did enjoy it as an attraction. Sort of like Who wants to be a Millionaire. I never watched that show in real life, but I really enjoyed the attraction.
Really? LMA? I hadn't really considered that. Interesting. Thanks for the recommendation! I'll have to check out the times and see if I can work that in. I have seen in on some of the travel channel specials and it does look neat!
Oh, I've never done the animation class either! But I can barely draw a smiley face so I'd be frightened to see what I'd produce!
Fantasmic is a must for us. We get chills when good defeats evil and the big boat comes out with a zillion characters waving! It's very cool. We just get some food and wait in line with the masses. To us, it is worth the wait.
Lights, Motors, Action - I would say see it once, anyway. We've seen it 4-5 times.
We also love Tower of Terror and Beauty and the Beast. Little Mermaid is a nice cool place to sit down for a while and a cute little show. It wouldn't so much be amust-do for grown-ups, but with Brooklynn, it is a must-do!
If you're a wimp, the take-off on RnR may be a bit much. I don't mind the ride, but the take-off hurts my neck.
Sounds Dangerous - I'd walk on by it. We did it once, and that was enough.
American Idol - I guess it depends if you're into that on TV. I know what it is, but have never seen a show in its entirety, so I don't care about going to it in WDW.
I'd say do everything once, because only you can say from personal experience how you like something. What one person thinks is pointless (for us it is Stitch and Sounds Dangerous), someone else would really enjoy.
Have fun with the planning!
Thanks, MeMom!
I am a bit distressed about the cut back in Fantasmic shows. It makes it tough to fit in but so many people say it's well worth it!
Walk on by Sounds Dangerous... I think that attraction's fate has been sealed. At least in my touring plans!
Poor Drew Carey.
I am definitely a wimp and don't think I can do RnR. Doesn't it go upside down? No WAY can I do that!
Hey C! I'm still here, with being away last week and catching up, I feel bad for not posting, but wanted to let you know I'm still reading!!!
Hi Kristen! No worries. I've been neglecting my OWN TR. Have to soak up the nice weather while we're having it!
------------------------------
So AllEars posted an article/interview about the F&W festival. Some things I'm quite excited about:
A new dessert and... wait for it...... CHAMPAGNE kiosk!! 
The tequila bar will be open in Mexico with tequila tastings on Fri/Sat/Sun!
Some special Mexico demonstrations... I Mexican food (but not San Angel Inn )
The ice cream area over by Imagination sounds pretty neat!
Two other new kiosks - Rio - might be good? And Thailand - which will have beer not wine.
One thing I'm a little disappointed in is that this article describes the "Deen" event as just the brothers and not Paula. The newspaper article said that Paula would be there too. Guess I'll have to wait for the official announcement. 
Gasp. Just kidding. But we'll have to see them in Sept. 
at the same time about the thin shell of the backlot tour.
Next time you come too. A solo trip in March... hmmm... how about April?
