Shrek 4D Memorial Thread (USF)

[Joel]

I saw the Minions movie for the first time last night and didn't really care for it. SLoP was better but the first DM is still the best.

Agreed, I meant the minions in general, not the movie. Original DM will always have a special place in my heart.

Freeze ray?

We share opinions in that the ride definitely is not worth it. But also I love the minions and I'm 26, and two other people in my office also love the minions and they're like 45 and 50 respectively. They both have desks over-filled with little minion figurines/toys.

i stand corrected about preteens and children only enjoying the minions

I personally liked DM, and i found the minions in it to be funny - but I never was a big fin of them outside of DM.

I like the DM. attraction. I actually enjoy the pre shows even more than the ride itself. But I would never even think about standing in the typical 1 to 2 hr. long stand by line to ride it. We do it multiple times each vacation, but only with Hotel Express. The days we're at CBBR, I don't even give it a second look due to those long lines.

Yeah I like them in DM; the Minions movie is pretty bad. Even DM2 is eh....

Minions are popular though. They're also very opinionated on Facebook.

 

[Living_Bread]

it sucks because even the express line is always backed up so bad. Like you really need to hit this attraction in the morning to snatch a quick ride on it.

Is it as crowded and popular during the offseason?

We go in May, late Sept. and October, moderate crowds. DM is still always over 60 minutes for stand by. But Express has always been a walk on for us. I've waited 5 minutes, tops.

Weird, even during the offseason the express can be 30-40 minutes for us. We've also only tried it twice so not a big sample pool.

 

[Living_Bread]

for me express was 45 minutes, but timed it was about an hour. That was in August 2015.

I take a visual at the Express line when I'm in the vicinity. I've seen it go to the beginning of stand by a few times, but I just pass it up then.

@Mad Dog

They've been testing a separate stationary seating line recently. It's entrance is next to where express and stand by enter the sound stage. It almost never has anyone in the line, so if you like the pre shows and don't need the motion to enjoy the ride, then there ya go.

Thanks, but I do like the motion.

I'll have to try that, the motion killed my back and I'm only 26.

It is now officially official.
DreamWorks Animation is now owned by Comcast | The Verge
How long until more characters appear in the park for M&Gs?

And how long before we see them added to the Superstar Parade

Let's hope the acquisition prompts a complete makeover of the parade.

That's my hope. Anything to get rid of Hop!

While they're at it they should add Mario and friends.

I would be so depressed if Hop left.

The drum line is also enjoyable.

Realistically, if Shrek goes, what could be a suitable replacement?

IP wise, there is enough to choose from but we're dealing with about .7 acres.
