Rivers of Light or Boma Dinner?

[100acreHiker]

Pretty sure I can't do both. We haven't seen Pandora yet. Right now we have a 5pm reservation at Boma. We're looking forward to it as we haven't been to the restaurant in about 5 years. Our FOP FP is for 7pm. I figured we'd do stand by for Navi after FOP. But I did grab a ROL FP just in case. Show time is 6:30 (FP entry is good until 6:15). Barring a change in the space/time continuum, I can't imagine we can make dinner and ROL work. So I'm curious what all y'all DisFolk would choose: ROL or dinner at Boma. Youtube video of the show looks pretty but not amazing, but I'm looking at it on youtube, not in person. Is there a general consensus on the show? We will have other nighttime spectaculars in our 4 or 5 days there.

Boma! It's my favorite Disney restaurant

I like the show, but I don't think you're missing anything (especially since you've seen it on YouTube).

I'd stick with Boma.

Would it be possible to move Boma to 4:00?

FWIW, I wanted to see Rivers of Light too on my last trip. One of the families I traveled with nixed going because he said the Jungle Book show was atrocious. I caught some glimpses of it while we were in the park, and while it looked and sounded pretty, it seemed kinda dull with no "wow" factors.

Boma opens at 5 for dinner, so it looks like this is the earliest they can do. Would be great if Boma could begin dinner at 4, though!

Boma! The show was ok. We were glad we watched it but agreed if we hadn't seen it we wouldn't have missed it.

It would be so perfect if Boma opened at 4! I think it’s really a shame they're beginning the show during prime dinner hour, too. Oh well, lots to do anyway!

Yep. That's how we felt too. We didn't think it was horrible or anything. But if given the choice, we would pick Boma.

Boma. Watch a high quality video of ROL and call it a day.
