It’s cast previews, unsure if they could invite normies to this event, but I am sure even CMs can skew positive.

Regardless, public feedback is public feedback. Don’t need to disregard their opinions.
Why wouldn't they give positive reviews? Those are their friends working hard to put on a show. You're going to be supportive of your friends.

"Limited Time" at Disney means the same as "limited time" geologically.

Oh who knows. It seems anything positive these days is labelled by some on here as coming from "shills", "influencers", and "pixie dusters".

Not like humans can actually maybe enjoy the new things Disney produces, including CMs and GP.

The people who haven't experienced something seem to be the loudest when it comes to having an opinion on it. See the Galactic Starcruiser which is apparently better judged by those who have seen a few YouTube clips instead of those who have been.

Having said that, there's likely some degree of positive bias in these early reviews.

Is it as good as Beauty and the Beast at WDW? That is also in a limited run, right? 🤭

I’m excited to see Rogers in August. I wish the east coast had a new show for anyone to gush over!

Trailer looks solid. Cheesy but not to the point where it's so bad that it could be painful to sit through.

Which was my question. Can they do something that is a parody of Broadway shows but still being good enough to be enjoyable.

Is this something the average theme park visitor wants to sit through?

Will your 6yr old sit through it and ask to do it again?

Remains to be seen, but I imagine there are several six year old Marvel fans out there.

But its not just topic - but style and form too. The previews show nice attempt at the target product. I just don’t know how that will ring with the bulk of guests today. Most kids aren’t into stage dancing and 40s revival stuff.

I liked everything i saw… except the nick fury bit. But i don’t know if I’d actually enjoy it.

I can appreciate something is for a different demographic… i just fear the lack of overlap with disney day guests… and not just rabid AP types.

Based on the video, super fun, high energy, some fun new songs, Nick Fury's song is a blast. Lots of spectacle, it's cheesy, has heart, and I think it will entertain many.

I predict it gets extended....

The paid experience is 100 tickets a show, 400 tickets total, first come first serve basis. Being sold day of at Studio Catering Company. Can select show if early enough, but if shows sell out, have to take what is left. Once gone, gone for the day.

Line up will form each morning in backlot area behind Hollywood Boulevard.

(according to DAPS Magic)
