They are moving CRUSH to a much larger theater and getting that make-shift queue out of the center of the pavilion.

It is VERY TRUE!!!!!
When I asked the CM Tuesday when it was going to be open they said they didn't know yet......

The line for this attraction was getting ridiculous. It is a very funny attraction for young kids but there had to be two or three hour waits for with the lines blocking the rest of the attraction

Wow - I know it sucks for those there right now, but this is a much needed iprovement. I remember when it first opened there were no lines and there were no worries. The lines have gotten ridiculous and it's silly having them in the middle of the lobby of the Living Seas. I hope they come up with something better. Fast Pass would be sort of cool or maybe having a much larger theatre will take care of the problem!

Thanks for the info!

Turtle Talk moving into one of the large theaters where they used to show the opening film ("The Deluge") as guests made their long and complex trek into the former 'Living Seas' area.

There were actually two of these theaters in the pavilion.
One of them is gone as its space has now been incorporated as part of the new Nemo Clamshell attraction.

Since the other theater remained empty, it can now become a much larger space to present 'Crush'.
It can hold many more folks at one time, so the number of guests waiting can be reduced by a greater degree every time a new 'Crush' show begins.

Another positive by-product of moving to this theater is that the queue can be routed off to one side instead of being threaded through in the center of the Seas Pavilion by those ugly temporary stanchions .

Certainly a much needed upgrade.

When is Nemo's clamshell ride officially opening (if it hasn't already)? It sounds so cool!

 

[Mariposa]

The Seas with Nemo and Friends (the Clamshell ride) is already open. It's cute, but not a "not to be missed" attraction, IMHO.

Thanks, Mariposa. I was hoping it would be similar to the old 20,000 leagues ride....but it sounds like it might not be that good? At least I won't be too disappointed when I ride it in May.

Just throwing my 2 cents in...we thought it was really well done. Let us know what you think.

It is "cute". Simple and attractive to younger kids. Older teens, and some tweens will probably yawn through it.
It was a nice get off of our feet ride.
