Skip ToT intro ?

The only reason you make that connection is because you know the story little kids don't automatically assume what we do.

I doubt it since I have never paid any attention to the tv and the story. If a child is oblivious to the scary two floors they will travel, I believe they will be oblivious to a small tv that they can't even see if they are standing in the room full of people.

I just feel there is no fear level difference in standing in a room full of people while a little tv runs it's preshow vs an elevator that shows a scene of "ghosts" who are then electrocuted, then travel through a floor that has very strange creepy objects and being pushed into a pitch dark elevator shaft. There is no rationalizing to me that is not scary - but the pre-show room is.

I mean it doesn't matter to me, the parents can ask to skip ahead on the ride.

The parents know her best and other parents in this thread said that their kids felt the same way. I've never seen the show either, sorry I just can't buy it that after that many trips you don't know what the story is about. Heck most times I can't even see the TV but even if I am not paying attention to words I can hear the story ... "Hollywood 1939...
