Should I FP Lion King or Finding Nemo Musical?

[selenak]

I can't decide if I should FP Lion King or Finding Nemo the Musical. Our family went 3 years ago and we really enjoyed Lion King performance.

My boys are 7 and 9 now and not into Nemo like they used to be, but I heard this is a good show. Worth it or no?

I currently have Lion King as my 3rd FP selection but considering a switch.

Opinions please

I read mixed reviews online about the Nemo show but considering it. I know Lion King is fabulous though, so I'm on the fence. We waited in a long line for Lion King last time and may skip seeing it unless we FP it. IDK. Hard to decide.

We have EE and Dino for our first two and skipping KS since we go to the Memphis Zoo all the time and saw KS three years ago and it was good but not exciting enough to use a FP on. Will do it at the end of the lines aren't that long. Don't like getting drenched so not doing Kali unless we can get in later on a short line at the end of the day. May try for that 4th FP there for one of those.

Both shows are great. Depends if you have better use of the FP+ and when do you want to see the show. I have no problem get into the first show of Lion King and the last show of Nemo. I did miss a Nemo show once due to long line and then had to leave due to tech difficulties . I booked the Nemo pkg at Tusker the next year just to be sure not to miss the show which turned out to be unnecessary.

Personally, I prefer to use the FP+ on Safari, Kali and Everest.

My kids like Nemo more than lion King. I'm not sure which one to FP, but I'd plan on going to both if you can! We've never used FP for either show and never had any issues. ( We go during the off-season).

We love lion king. I wouldn't miss it. Nemo is kind of long and slow for us.

Both shows are a must see for us. The first time we saw the nemo show, my youngest was only 1 and it did seem a little long for her at the time, now she loves it! If you haven't seen the nemo show, you may want to try it. We have seen both in one day without using fp+ for either.

My kids still talk about Lion King to this day and we went in 2008. They loved it! A must see.

We were just there this month. It was busy and we had no problem getting into Lion King without a FP. All the seating seems to be the same to me since it's a round theater. We skipped Nemo this time but FP+ for shows seemed to have some of the better seats reserved for FP+. I personally would use FP+ for rides. Is there something in Dinoland you can use it on? If not I'd say use it for Nemo and standby for Lion King.

From reading reports, since Lion King opened, that would be a better use of FP as standby doesn't always make the current show seating. All reports seem to be that Nemo does not have this issue.

Nemo show is my #1 show on property, Lion King is meh in my opinion, but everyone is very divided on this.
