Wow, you got some fantastic inside pictures of SciFi!! I was looking for something like that for ages and never saw non-blurry pictures which gave a feeling of the room! Well done!
Thank you! It was a challenge to keep them from blurring. I think I leaned up against the wall to try to keep the camera still for the ones from the side of the room.
The monster actually lives in Epcot - there was a sighting last December as you can see
here!
That is hilarious! Thanks for sharing that. That's pretty much what the gila monster movie trailer looked like.
I actually preferred these inbetween news programms and the clips about the future to the trailers...
They were good. It's always funny to see what they thought the future would look like fifty years ago. James was disappointed that they showed all these movie trailers and never actually showed the movies.
We had that too and regretted getting the healthy option. Who would come up with a dish like that. It was more or less without any taste....
It was really...not good. And that's coming from me, who'll eat just about anything. Yes, I wondered what chef would put that on the menu. Are they actually trying the stuff they're serving.
Love the pics of Sci Fi. We went last year after a ten year absence and absolutely loved it! I had the burger which was really, really good. If you like reuben sandwiches, this is what Mark had and said it was as good as the one at The Plaza. And the onion rings? Oh my, I could make a meal of those (although I'd need several orders).
Yes, I like reubens. Dang, looks like I could've either gone with the Angus burger or a reuben and somehow picked door number 3. Now I'll know for next time. Yeah, I love those onion rings. We easily could've downed a few plates of those.
And I can understand the mistake with the Fast Pass. Once would be more than enough on that.
Yep, it's an easy mistake. Now she's not a rookie anymore.
Haha! No, it wasn't us. I suppose it could have been if it was a guy...DH or my BIL would have hounded them until they got what they wanted!!!
That's a relief! Both that it wasn't you guys I was "DISing" and that I wasn't waiting for a Jawa autograph behind your DH or BIL!
LOVE your pictures of Sci Fi!!! I didn't get any that were nearly that good. Of course, I was trying to placate my two older children who were apparently terrified by the cheesy 50's movie trailers.
The goofy kids were scared of those, but have seen and are good with all 6 Star Wars films, including the one where Anakin's legs burn off (I didn't want to let them see that one, but DH was insistant they see them all in order, and to his credit he sat and talked through what was going on with them)!! What the heck?? I was very glad to be in the dark and the air conditioning, though, and I love the car booths. I think I need to try those onion rings, too....yum!
I remember reading that on your thread, that your kids were upset by the movie trailers. That's kind of surprising...they're so over the top cheesy.
Yes, Judy wasn't sure she wanted to let James see that Star Wars episode either. When he did she was all worried that he'd have nightmares or something. Nope. No problem whatsoever.
So, you were there later in the afternoon right? I forget, did you have an ADR or just wait for an opening?
Your pics of the Sci-Fi really have me thinking that I need to re-consider this dining location.....do you know if that have any "healthy" options on the menu?
First, I believe this is your first post on my thread Dug (Donna), so
Thanks for joining in. I might know a thing or two about Wilmington, DE.
I wasn't really looking for a healthy option when I was there (although I did think my smoked turkey on multigrain bread wasn't a bad choice), but I just looked on allears.net and a vegetarian option is "Seared Marinated Tofu". Mmmmm.
I don't think I'd go for that, but maybe it's what you're looking for?
Great pics of Sci-Fi! I don't recall some of those from our September 2008 meal there, they must occasionally change the movie clips....good thing!
Thank you!
Yes, we saw the whole reel of stuff about 3 times while we were there, so I'd definitely look forward to a little change-up if/when we go again.
I agree with what your family found at Sci-Fi - gotta go with a burger there. Most everything else seems to get a "meh" review most of the time. I *think* I have read good things about their reuben as well. But the shakes...YUMMY! The onion rings look delicious!
Yes, careful choices need to be made here. I thought that my sandwich was pretty close to a club sandwich, which is always my stand-by lunch order if nothin else grabs me, and it's never failed me. But this did not turn out to be a club sandwich.
I agree about Sci Fi Food !! The burghers are GREAT and the oreo cookie milkshake is to die for !!!!! I have a new fav desseert there too the cheesecake !!I ordered it last year and had to fight of the kids trying to eat it !!!
The steak there is pretty good at dinner time too !!
I wish I had gotten a burger Rosie! With those shakes, we were too full for dessert. I may have to try the cheesecake sometime.
Excellent update. Love your pics inside Sci-Fi. They could totally be the promo pics Disney uses on their website!
Oh wow, thank you!
I must say, I was not actually ever intrigued to eat there. I always thought the food choices were just so-so to be using a TS credit (I know, insert
here). However, I think your post may have made a convert out of me. I may need to try it on our next trip (which sadly isn't for a looooooong time
).
Well, I'm learning...stick with a burger, or maybe a reuben if you're not in a burger mood. And while the shakes are good, I'd go with a vanilla coke for the free refills.
Meaning of Life is my least favourite Python movie. Mostly due to the "Live Organ Transplants" and the entire restaurant scene with an obscenely overweight Terry Jones. I don't see the humor in excessive blood and/or puking. Not for me. That being said, I do have a few favourite parts from that movie:
Every Sp**m is Sacred - so catchy!
"Middle Age"
When Eric Idle as the french waiter takes us on a long tour through the streets to the house where he grew up
"The salmon mousse!"
"It's Christmas in Heaven every day"
Wow there's quite a bit more that I like than dislike in that movie. For you Python fans who haven't seen it, what are you waiting for?!
This is exactly how my friends would talk about the movie 20+ years ago! "It's not that good." "Don't waste your time." Then, rattle off about half a dozen things they liked! Maybe some day.
Glen, great update. I absolutely love that picture of James looking back at the camera with his food. Adorable! I just want to pinch those cheeks
Thanks. Maybe I'll pinch him for you. You gave me a good excuse.
Nice review of Sci-Fi. That bean cucumber salad you got looks rather unappetizing. Note to self: Don't order from the healthy choice menu at Sci-fi
It was
When the crop dusters are buzzing our house I'll think of your daughter getting FPs. I haven't tried the Sci-Fi but it's starting to pique my interest, I love a good burger. 
Can't wait to see what that is all about.
and when the time came, I strayed from the wisdom I learned here. 
That is amazing stuff!
