OK. I'm fine for Soarin' but not so good with FJ (the screen parts are what do it).

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it sounded horrible.

I know the culture they are depicting is very different from my own and that I should try to be more open to what music "should" sound like. I'm really hoping to love Pandora. Maybe that voice will grow on me.

Do you think 50-60 year olds could do it? I am hesitating if we should book Fastpasses once our 60 day mark.

It depends on the person.

Last question.

I have never been to Disney and I don't understand the FastPass system. So basically we can only choose 1 of the two Pandora attractions and 2 other attractions outside Pandora (in Animal Kingdom)? And once we finish for example, Flight of Passage, can we book a FastPass directly for Na'vi ? Or do we have to do the 3 attractions and THEN be able to book 3 more attractions and so on?

You have to use your 3 fat passes than you can book additional fast passes one at a time.

Yes you book one of the Pandora rides, then two from the rest of the park. You have to use all of your Fps before booking any others. Now it is likely going to be very difficult for you to get a FP for river journey because it is so new and many will be using FPs for it.

Is a fat pass like a cheat meal? I need more than 3 fat passes at Disney.

We're visiting the 28th of July. Will it be really crowded?

You are going in the middle of summer, yes it will be crowded at all of the WDW parks. Pandora is brand new so its going to be a big draw.

Pandora will be slammed for the near future. At least until Star Wars land opens at HS to draw crowds away some

DH & I plan to do it, and we're in the 60-70 year old group. We routinely ride RnR, ToT, etc. so are not worried about FoP!

I watched a video today of the Shaman of Song from NRJ and thought it would be awesome. Supposedly one of the most elaborate animatronics ever. I thought the story behind the shaman was really neat and expected to hear a beautiful, melodious voice coming from it. Instead, I heard an unpleasant croaking sound that did not in any way fit the beautiful, graceful creature it was coming from. Is that really going to be the voice??

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought it sounded horrible.

Watched as well ............. and all while it's visually beautiful and am sure I could look at it over and over ........... all I could think of besides the voice was getting stuck in there with that music might be right up there with Small World. I had high expectations for music.

Darn auto correct on my MacBook Pro.

My mom is 74 going on 75, she rides everything but Everest and Space Mountain. She loves Soarin' and Star Tour and can even handle the bumps and ups and downs of Big Thunder Mountain and Tower Of Terror.

I guess a 60 year old would be fine!

Were there anymore reports with how taller people would feel on FoP? I'm close to 6'4" and my Dad is 6'7" and our height is in our legs. I have FoP FP booked for 2 days on our trip for the DIS 20th. I don't want to use a FP for it if we won't be able to ride it.

Craig is over 6' not sure how tall exactly he is but he seemed fine.

This ride is not friendly for big/ tall people. If you're husky at those heights there's a high probability you'll have trouble fitting on FOP...leg room is what is killed. If you're questioning when you get there ask the cast member up front for the test seat

That's like the absolute middle of the summer. Holidays aside it's probably the busiest time of the year.

Have you rode it or just speculating?

I thought the same thing. I need real reports. Not someone commenting based on what they saw in a video. I feel like it is going to depend how much leg room there is once you sit down.
