Which All Star???

[WDWFUN]

I know that the rooms at Sports are being renovated right now, and that Music was recently done, but has Movies been done or is that next? We are going in March and trying to decide between Music and Movies.

I would like to know this too? Anyone??

Movies has the best food court. No 2 ways about that.
Theming is all up to personal taste.
I prefer the bus service at Movies. Here's why:

When the 3 resorts share a bus, Movies is the last to be picked up. Some people complain about this, but seriously, wouldn't you rather just be picked up and head directly to the park as opposed to being picked up and making 1 or 2 more stops? Plus, if it's ever so crowded that there's only standing room left, they will send another bus soon after.

Let's say you're leaving the Magic Kingdom at closing. It's packed. You're staying at Movies. You get to the bus area and the line for the Movies bus is long. The line for the Music bus is short. Just take the Music bus. The walk to some of the rooms at Movies is shorter taking the Music bus.

You'll notice, at super busy time, all 3 have their own bus. At busy times, Sports and Music share, while Movies has their own. At slow times, they'll all share. Overall, Movies is your best option in terms of bus service.

I'm glad to hear this, as we are staying at Movies during Pop Warner.

I like Pop the best. It is newest, it has a lagoon, the pools are themed well (except for the 90's pool, which is small), there is a walkway around the resort, and has a nice layout (not a far walk to the main building from anywhere). You can also see both the Epcot and MK fireworks from your room if you are in the 50's building facing the lagoon. But ask for a room on one of the top floors. My kids both enjoyed the Arcade.

AS Sports is my least favorite. I like well-themed pools and didn't like those at Sports. It is an OK resort, but only OK, not fantastic.

Movies is themed well, the rooms are all close to the main building and bus stop. I haven't stayed there, but walked through the grounds and it looked very nice.

I have stayed at AS Music and it's my 2nd favorite after POP. Some of the rooms are far from the main building and bus, but in my opinion, it has the best themed pools. I have never had an issue with the buses at any of the resorts.
