    Yeah I thought it'd be spectacular. It'd be okay for the kids...but for older people, it wasn't impressive. And I'm not being biased against these "story" rides. Snow White scares me as does Pinocchio. I thought the Winnie the Pooh ride was better executed.

    like you said, I was expecting more...

    a 40-45 min wait doesn't justify this. I hope Cars land rocks my socks off

    i think that you need to go into this expecting a fantasyland style dark ride, rather than a full fledged e ticket type ride. the story is really choppy and the ending is abrupt, but that is like most of the dark rides.

    considering that peter pan is regularly 40 minutes, i think its definitely worth a 40 minute wait, as i think the audio animatronics, especially ursula, and all the fish in the under the sea scene are really impressive as well as the set designs.

    I went into this expecting a snow white/alice in wonderland-esque type feel, but didn't get it. Ursula was the best part. Man she was creepy. The Under the Sea scene was great and Sebastian looked too real.
    If you've been to the Blue Sky Cellar, its revealed that the giant mural in the passenger loading/unloading area was HAND PAINTED Freakin' amazing

    I went today, I really like it. I also really enjoyed Star Tours and the Soundsational Parade. I walked right on to Star Tours and I waited about 25 min for little mermaid. Not bad

    this. yeah, the billboards are going to be cool, and i think it looks a lot less tacky; however, the ride itself isn't different.

    DCA, pretty much the upper right corner of the park where all the construction is going on and it's blocked off. . in paradise pier

    edit: if you're talking about Little Mermaid it's right before the pier bridge, in golden st, in front of/near the water where world or color would be.
