We were there about that same time last year. The crowds were on the small side. The only big crowd was on Sunday for Star Wars Week-end at MGM. That didn't bother us as we went that day just for that. The real crowds were around the Star Wars area. Star Wars Week-end is very cool, I think the crowds were so large because the movie had just come out. It In 2004 there were people there but nothing like last year. We wanted to buy SW t-shirts in 2005 and they were sold out of adult sizes by lunch. If you go on a week-end in May and do not care about Star Wars just go to another park and it should be fine. But it really is worth a look at all they have during this time.
