No I don't think I am familar with Stitch's Great Escape. Is there something I should be concern?

Ok since so much time has passed since we started this thread and people now have a better sense of their plans do you guys want me to add a list to the first post of who, dates, and maybe which resort? Might be a fun way to see who is where and when in case anyone wants to coordinate meets/exchanges of anything/etc?? If you're interested add a post here and I'll go add whoever wants to be added

Argh...I missed roll call
The wife and I are celebrating our 10th anniversary at CBR 11/27 - 12/3. And we are going to our 1st MVMCP 11/29.

In my humble opinion, you aren't missing much! Dark theater, loud noises and some minor surprises. Can be frightening for little ones.

You should read reviews. I don't recall if you have young children in your party or not, but if you do, definitely read reviews!

My 6yo was NOT impressed. Nor DH lol. I wasn't going near it after experiencing it when it was Alien Encounter!!

i agree but not for the same reasons......I know Stitch has a following but in my opinion it's one of the worst Dis attractions there is, but then I absolutely LOVED Alien...sorry...If you really want to check it out, I would plan to Stand By it, and not waste a FP on it....

Alien scared the heck out of me! Stitch just doesn't appeal. Just a blah attraction.

We actually loved the preshow part - the little movie at the beginning, then the Tim Curry robot "SIR"...the actual sit down part was less of a draw....we still quote the lines for the movie portion though! "Profits are just a necessary by-product we've learned to live with..." Love it.

 

[BDFmom]

Yes

All you MVMCP people are starting to make me think I need to go haha. I've never done any extras in all my trips as a kid and adult. So tempting!

@BDFmom did you ever find someone to share you fireworks cruise with?

@JamieOak i had EMM booked at MK and my DH talked me out of it. I think it sounds amazing and you totally should do it!

I'm still really on the fence about the SW dessert party. Gah it's too hard to choose with all the fun stuff, especially when Disney 2 years in a row is already so crazy haha.

Yes.... @serenitynow and another family from FB. We are so excited!!

We'll have 3 boys around 15, one 8, my DD 17 and the best adults.

Woohoo! Sounds perfect

I haven't eaten there but it sure gets good reviews overall. I know it's one of my TA's favorites.

Shannon from WDW prep loves garden grill. I'm pretty sure from listening to her podcast on character meals that the characters are the same for breakfast/lunch/dinner. I have breakfast ADR. DD really likes Chip and Dale.

 

[CCxmas]

Which meal are you doing? I tried talking DH into breakfast but he's a 3rd shifter lol. Mornings are not his favorite. But at Disney he sucks it up for me

Sounds like my husband. Although I'm doing a conference while I'm there so we don't get to the parks until later in the am.

 

[CCxmas]

From the News & Rumors board, our first ride refurb to impact our trip. Thought y'all would want to know.

NO!!!!!!! This is one of our faves!!

Thanks for the kind words! I can't wait!

Hmm, three 15 year old teen age boys ... Hope the boat packs plenty of snacks!

I know!

My boy is on the skinny side his Ped told him he needs to eat a minimum of 4000 calories a day!

If only that were true for the rest of my family!

Wow, lucky boy. We don't have that problem in our family, for sure.

 

[Princess Amy]

We will be there too at this time. Staying at Pop from 11/24 - 12/4 with DH, DS14, and DD 3. Celebrating our anniversary and our DS upcoming 15th birthday.
Almost time to do fast passes!! Can't wait!

 

[BDFmom]

For those doing EMM what your FP strategy for that day?

I have no clue... actually i really have no clue with all the 60 plus FP-. Last time we were in Disney they still had paper vouchers from the kiosks.

I think I'm more stressed about the FP booking than ADR
