Will vomit bags be made available... like at Mission: Space? Only no spinning... but twice the nausea inducing effects. :lookaroun

I predict this to be one of the bigger flops in Disney Park history....

Don't count your eggs before they hatch! It's going to be fun.

I have been known to be wrong about upcoming Disney attractions. I hate to admit this but before it opened, I thought Stitch's Great Escape was going to be fun! And I also had no interest whatsoever in Toy Story Midway Mania before that opened, who knew I would have been completely off base about 2 new attractions!! However, I just can not understand how AIE could be enjoyable for anyone who is not in it. Especially for people to be so emotionally vested that they're going to stay all day in a park with not a lot to do to go to the final show to see if some stranger wins a karaoke competition. How is that better entertainment than saying going to Magic Kingdom to watch Wishes or heading over to Downtown Disney for a nice dinner? I guess you could do both but I anticipate a big exodus out of DHS after Block Party Bash on the nights Fantasmic is dark. But, again, I have been wrong before!

cm previews are this week.

 

[Figment1986]

wow... that was a lot of things saying if your not a passholder then you wont be able to do anything... lol

I think i will wait to experience it later... esp since i had issues with having 3 APs signed up for the tour, but then one could not be signed up for the time...

 

[MousDad]

Hope there's passholders out there who can sing.

:lol: Yes, they may need them.

Yes, I hope it flops big time!

 

[bgraham34]

Oh well I am just a few weeks early. I guess I will see the attraction in about a year and a half or so.

 

[Matpez]

Yeah, personally I could care less, but DHS need anything to eat people and add time to their day.

We signed up for Sunday at 12... that way I will have seen it and most likely never have to again.

 

[DMC-12]

Agreed... I will go see it... and then cast my final judgement... and then continue to walk by the building... as if it were still empty. :lol:

I'm at the same seating. We'll see you there.

 

[MousDad]

Okay, all you guys that are going to hate the attraction have fun at the passholder preview you signed up for. :wave:

Me smells sarcasm!

 

[disnyfan89]

More like him trying to point out the irony me thinks!

 

[Vernonpush]

I would rather see AIE then Motor, Lights, Not Interested (never been, never will) or Sounds Boring (tried it once - time I will never get back). I would not go out of my way to see any of the three (unless I was promised a YOAMD prize for going- oh, wait, that's over :ROFLOL.

 

[jakeman]

Yes, I hope it flops big time!

Why would anyone hope that?

You know what happens if it flops? They have to spend money and time to correct it or more likely they wasted money and have nothing to show for it.

If it is the first case, then the likelihood that other project will suffer is increased. Perhaps even a project, you were looking forward too.

If it is the second case, then this attraction does not eat people like it is supposed to, leading to more people in the parks, and increasing wait times in other areas.

Why people wish bad things are beyond me.

Because it will flop , they should have put something else there like a 3-d show or something. I dont think anyone wants to hear SEACREST OUT! God forbid he's featured in that somehow , like on a intro video. -shivers-

Look at it like this , how many kids can actually relate to American idol? I think more kids relate to say the star wars , the indiana jones , the pixar stuff there then a bunch of teens trying to be the next big singer.

does anyone know when this officially opens to the public?
