I loved BTMRR especially at night towards the back! Seriously had forgotten the added thrill (ok to us at least) of riding that ride in the dark and it's even better when you're towards the back.
I’ve also found the mine train is more fun af night. The tracks hard to see and all of fantasyland is all lit up

Agreed, I don't know why but it definitely seems faster/more thrilling in the dark than during the day. It's especially nice with some fireworks going off!

I didn't time ours with fireworks (that wouldn't have worked at I have sensitive ears and need noise reducing headphones around fireworks) but def. at night is such a different experience and very pretty. Not being able to see the tracks, the curves and with 7DMT with the ride vehicle swaying. Still wish 7DMT was longer though lol but I actually enjoyed the ride.
 
It is physics, not an anomaly. In short, the front of any rollercoaster tends to go slower because it is pulling the rest of the train. The back is being pulled and feels like the fastest ride.

On BTMRR the landings at the top of the chains are really short, so the people in the front are dangling while the train is still on the chain, making it even worse than physics would account for. The back is exciting because you get whipped off the top which is the scary part, but you also get held up a little at the bottom of the hill. The middle feels natural on coasters all the time, but in the case of BTMRR you might *still* be on the chain too long. I just let them assign me a seat, variety.

I'm really looking forward to Toy Story Land, hope everything works!

We sure liked it better at night! :) By the way, roller coasters make the best ride photos. We have some from Dollywood that are embarrassing (what the heck happens to my face?) to the point of being hysterical.

I told my wife I was going to get the Jessica Rabbit MB....my wife told me that I wasn't going to get the Jessica Rabbit MB. :(

Of all the MBs that have come and gone this is by far my absolute favorite. The colors are gorgeous as is the character. Well done Disney! I'd buy it for my husband but if I'm being honest, I'd be the one wearing it! :-)
 
This is a few pages late, but 32" is an average 18 month old. The height restriction is effectively a "no infants" rule. I'd hardly consider that too restrictive for a kids area.
