Which should we choose? WOC or F!???

[HydroGuy]

I don't know if you are in the minority HydroGuy, I think it's a close tie for F! and WOC! I'm excited for the chance to maybe see both!!

If you look at the poll results then I am clearly in the minority.

If you haven't seen either, I think Fastasmic is such a classic show and truly magical! This is something my kids request every time and we make sure to fit this in each time, as it never gets old! Def a family favorite of ours. Friends who have asked for help in planning always come back saying they were very grateful for the recommendation to see F!.

Don't get me wrong, Disney doesn't put on a bad show, so you will be happy with either, and even happier with both. Just a personal rec if you have to choose!

WOC is my favorite. I like F! too, but WOC is amazing. Ferb & Dez is crazy

Again, you'll be able to see both.

Crazy like a fox.

As others have mentioned, you should be able to see WOC as it would normally be shown at least once a night.

If not, however, I vastly prefer WOC to F!, but opinions vary. I find F! to be a bit dull and in need of an update, while WOC seems fresh and new. I hope you are able to see both and tell us which you prefer!

I agree! F! always seems a bit dated to me, especially now that WOC is around. If I had to choose one, it would be WOC, but you should be able to do both, which I highly recommend. We were able to do that on our trip last fall, and that was with the added complication of Halloween parties, so you guys should be just fine. They are both wonderful, but people do have their favorites!

In my opinion, WoC tops all of the nighttime shows in all of DL and WDW. I feel it's worth every second of planning or waiting for a spot. It's definitely not to be missed.

I just saw WOC for the first time last month. It is very good for a "dancing" water show. I got the glowing ears for the show, but I think its best if tons of people have the ears at the same time, so that you see glowing ears everywhere.

But I must say I am a fan of Fantasmic! all the way! I love the music and excitement from start to finish.

As others have said here, with the time you have you should be able to see both shows.

However, be very midful of the time required to see World of Color and how tollerant your kids will be waiting for that show. Even if one of you "holds your place" in the show entry queue line, you should all go into the show area together to insure your standing spot (30 minutes or more ahead of show time). That is a lot of time for kids to be standing in one place.

Also, the WoC viewing area is terrible for younger kids viewing. The viewing area is mostly flat with a small rise in each section and kids standing normally will only be able to see the tops of the fountains and projections. This is what prompts kids on shoulders. Otherwise they have to see though all the taller people around them.

Fantasmic! has a better area for kids viewing. Get to the show area early and secure a sitting spot in the area right in front of the Rivers of America (center is always best). This sitting area provides a great view for kids and also gets them close to the show itself.

If you can only see one show, choose Fantasmic! for the kids.
