Do I need fast passes for ...

[jmdisney]

Indiana Jones stunt show
Turtle Talk with Crush
Journey with Figment

Are these attractions easy to walk on to, or do you suggest the fast pass?

I can't answer for the first two, but I've never needed a FP for Journey with Figment. It's always been a walk on, but I have read recently where it's been a little more crowded in the summer. I would think if you're going during a lower crowd season, you'd be alright without it.

I have never needed FP+ for any of those, but I go in October when it's a little slower. Don't know what the waits are like during peak summer.

You can check Mesaboy's thread for FP+ recommendations.

ETA: I usually show up for the Indiana Jones show about a 1/2 hr before.

I don't know about Indy, but you shouldn't for the other two. Maybe for Crush on a super peak day.

You don't need them for Journey or Turtle Talk. If you plan to show up about 20 minutes or less before Indy, then an FP+ could be helpful. In March, we got there 15min before the show with FP+. They were telling the standby people that it would be standing room only. Since we had an FP+, we got a seat. I think all of the standby got in; they just had to stand in the back.

Our FP+ for Journey into Imagination actually did help us out. We were there for spring break crowds in March and posted wait was 30 min at the time we used it. I would never wait half an hour for that ride. We also used one for Crush during the same week and didn't really need it. However, there are not a lot of options that actually need FP at Epcot, so it didn't really bother me to "waste" one.

Same with us for Crush. There just wasn't anything else we were going on and we had to fill it. It's a "hurry up and wait" fastpass.

We just got home from our week at WDW and walked right on to Journey with Figment. We didn't do the other 2 rides so I can't help you there!

Indiana Jones is a huge theatre. Unless you get there right as it's starting, you probably won't need a fastpass.

The only one might be Figment but only if the park is extremely busy. It's normally a very short wait but sometimes I've seen wait time be 30-40 min.

Indiana Jones is probably the top show where a fast pass is wasted. I've used a fast pass there twice and both times the FP line was let in at the exact same time as the standby. So really making it pointless.

I would say maybe you might want a FP for Turtle Talk if you really want to do it? With FP+, if more people are getting FP for Crush, then you might need to wait longer without FP?

I can't imagine waiting 30+ minutes for Figment, never seen a line there, but don't usually go during super busy periods.

Indiana Jones was interesting on a non-busy weekday afternoon last month: there were hundreds of people lined up to enter with FP, but no line to go in standby. FP line presumably slower because people needed to stop and scan the Magicbands. Meanwhile the standby line just flowed right in, and there were plenty of seats. I don't think FP people have a special seating section? It was bizarre to see that long FP line on the left while people just walked in on the right.
