    Galactic Hero!
    Art T.

    Speaking as a Galactic Hero (picture attached), I have to say that this ride offers no challenge to us Space Rangers. Okay, kidding aside... LOL! This is a fun attraction, and it hasn't really lost its luster over time. You are in a two-person car, on a slow-moving, constant-loader attraction. The difference here is that you also have a "blaster" that shoots "lasers" at villainous forces led by the evil Emperor Zurg! Aim for the targets, earn points, and try to max out at 999,999 to earn the title of Galactic Hero! You can be as competitive as you like, just remember you're in public... at a theme park... where everyone can see your behavior. ;) It's a fun ride, though, with a great interactive element, even if you're in a car by yourself. It's very colorful inside with a mix of scenes and targets that respond to your attacks (items get knocked over, a volcano explodes, etc.). Because this attraction has been around for a bit, lines can vary. It's not the most sought-after ride in the park. But, lines can build, so be sure to check the app for wait times. Also, if you're there in summer, it's a great respite from the heat and humidity for several minutes, longer if you wait in the line indoors!

    Buzz Lightyear is at Magic Kingdom in Tomorrowland. Park tickets are required to visit. They have a standard line but also offer lightening lane options for a price. There are times when this ride is a longer wait and other times it can be a shorter wait. This used to be one of my favorite rides, and still one I really enjoy however, this attraction is long overdue for a refresh. It has become outdated. The line is about 50/50 outside and inside. Once you get inside its much better, cooler and almost to the front of the line. My main issue with the line is it moves so slow. For a ride that is continuous movement, it should be a continuous movement of the line. Recently the wait was posted at 20 minutes, but we waited almost 40. If there are people in the lightening lane, they will continue to allow them to go at the merge point so you can be stuck there for time. My issue with the ride is that its old and has seen better days, it's in need of repair. The ride is on a continuous moving track, you can control how the car moves and spins by using a joystick. Most of time the joystick does not work or will only allow you to spin in one direction. I've even been on it recently when it did not move at all. This is a shooting game to earn points. The "gun" is attached to the vehicle so you cannot not pick it up, just move it around and such. It is nearly impossible to determine where your light from the gun is and again most times, it does not work. The ride overall is fun, you can control your car, there are targets on every side of you as well as in front and behind you. It is a great ride for children. For adults, especially competitive adults its just ok. It really needs to shut down and do a massive rehab of their vehicles and guns. It would be great if the guns detached much like Men in Black at Universal. I think it would be easier to get targets. Overall, I would check it out, wait for the line to go below 30 minutes. But I do think its worth checking out.

    We had a 20 minute wait today, 1/11/23. Most of the line is outside, not inside, so the wait looks longer. I'm still awful at scoring and husband beat my score for the umpteenth time. The ride is smooth, and all of the displays before and during are fantastic. It's a shooting gallery with laser guns, and it's fun for the whole family. When you exit the ride, be sure to find your photo and link it to your magic band. I did today. It didn't work last time, but it worked today - when we visited this time before lunch and at night, when we only had to wait five minutes to get on.

    Disneyland has a similar ride and this game is similar to Toy Story Mania in Hollywood Studios. It's basically a shooting game where you're shooting at targets. In this ride, there are laser pointers so you can aim at the Zs and you can even control the rotation of the car itself. This ride brings out the competitive side of me and I enjoyed aiming at the targets and racking up the points.

    This ride was somewhat of a letdown. I think it's because we are spoiled with the better version of this ride in Disneyland California's Magic Kingdom. That ride is called Astroblasters and is much better and one of our favorite rides in the park. Why you ask? - The blasters here are stuck. They very much limit aiming or movement. Spinning the cart therefore very much becomes a must to get any points in. Unfortunately the spinning is kind of annoying and janky and not as much fun practically as the name suggests. - It's outdated. You can call it charm but ultimately you can't take away the fact that this limits the experience, especially when compared to the updated parts of the parks like the Toy Story Land in Hollywood Studios which is beautifully done and imagineered to perfection. - It's meh. The storytelling part is a bit missing and you're left to fill in the blanks yourself "what are we shooting?" "Zurg I guess?" which again is more clear and thought out in other Toy Story themed rides. What I did like was the more black lit theme of the ride. It made it very colorful and fun. All in all, still a fun family ride.

    Buzz light years space station is a Walt Disney world ride and attraction inside the magic kingdom park in the Tomorrowland section. It's is a ride for all ages featuring buzz light year or Pixar's toy story fame. The ride itself is a classic ride along shooter style attraction that spins you in all different directions as too shoot specified targets and "bad guys" to see who in your cart will score the most points. The ride is accessible to ages and heights and is very colorful and bright with tons of targets to aim at or focus on. Overall This is a solid little ride and a cool edition to magic kingdom. I'm not the biggest on shooter style attractions but if you are into that type of thing this is a good one.

There are water features and it's a really cool retreat from some of the summer heat or the hotter days in fall or spring. Overall, the ride itself is smooth. It's a good transition.

If you are in the under the C-section of the song area, it can get a little bit loud for Littles and frankly for adults too, if you are sound sensitive. I wholly recommend this as a wonderful attraction and ride for all ages.

    Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid is OK. Ariel looks weird, mainly in the face…read more While I still enjoyed this ride and thought it was fun, the overall quality of the animatronics was a step below most other rides at Disney World. I thought maybe that was because this ride opened around the same time as the movie in 1989. However, I was a bit surprised to learn after the fact that this ride actually opened 23 years after the movie, in late 2012. On the ride, you board clamshells that take you on an adventure under the sea. Pretty much all the characters from the movie make an appearance and the ride is filled with Alan Menken and Howard Ashman's popular songs like "Part of Your World," "Under the Sea," "Poor Unfortunate Souls," and "Kiss the Girl." The "Under the Sea" song and dance segment is bright and colorful. It reminds me of going to E.T.'s planet in the E.T. Adventure ride at Universal Studios. It's a festive party; both rides have that neon-colored, crowded "creature party" aesthetic. During our visit, the animatronic Ariel in this section was broken and inanimate. Kind of funny and creepy. During the "Kiss the Girl" segment, the plastic water coming out of the fishes' mouths didn't look great. It added to the overall sort of "knock-off" and kitschy look of the ride. Also, right before the end of the final scene with King Triton and the wedding of Ariel and Eric, the ride stopped on us. So, I was able to get a good, long look at the different animatronics and scenery. Finally, I thought the transitions between the high-quality video and the actual practical physical ride props were a bit jarring. Other rides do it better like, for example, the Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros at EPCOT. We had Lightning Lane passes at around 1:47 PM on a non-holiday Monday and experienced no line and no wait.

This is an incredibly popular and all-time classic ride, not just at Disney theme parks, but in the amusement park industry. It spawned a multi-billion dollar movie franchise, after all. At Disney, Universal, etc., I love the old-school rides with animatronics and practical special effects. They have a certain charm about them. The Disney World version of this ride opened at Magic Kingdom, in Adventureland, on December 15, 1973. The original version opened at Disneyland on March 18, 1967. I rode one or both of these versions when I was a kid back in 1989-1990. I think I enjoyed the ride more as an adult. Two other versions of this ride exist in Tokyo and Paris, making four total. A variation exists in Shanghai, but is different. The setting, the story, and of course, the music (from 1967) are whimsical and a lot of fun. "Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me." In 2006, the ride was refurbished to incorporate characters from the film series that started in 2003, most notably with appearances from Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow. The ride has a distinct smell caused by bromine, which Disney uses to treat the water instead of chlorine. It's become such a signature part of the "practical effect" charm that you can actually buy candles that smell like "Pirate Water." You might get a few little splashes of water on you and there's one small dip during the ride. We had Lightning Lane passes for this ride just before noon on a non-holiday Monday. We experienced little to no wait.

The tower is not accessible for entry, however, the outside of the tower has been detailed extremely well. The tower appears as though it could have easily come right out of the film. At daylight hours, the tower is quite nice. However, when evening arrives with lights like the lanterns from the movie, the entire atmosphere changes and becomes much more immersive! Although this area contains themed restrooms, there is no indication that they are bathrooms! This is not your average restroom stop in Magic Kingdom though! There are details throughout the area including Pascal hiding within some of the design elements, wanted posters of Flynn Rider and many other small details to give off the idea that this is essentially a mini Tangled town. I was happy about this being a slightly less crowded area of Fantasyland as well. It is nice to be able to step back and stop for a moment to capture some photos and take a quick rest from the crowds. Unlike many of the rides surrounding this area, there isn't always a huge crowd of people here! It is definitely worth stopping by especially at night. There are so much details to Rapunzel's tower!

Many many years ago there was a sky way gondola ride that went from Tomorrowland to Fantasyland...basically from Carousel of Progress to It's a Small World. The area that is now the village & tower (AKA Bathrooms) are now located where the abandoned Fantasyland station closed and was disguised by trees for at least 15 years. Now, to save the day and turn this area that became a stroller parking lot, no seriously...it was a parking lot of strollers w/ an attendant, I kid you not. This area became very narrow and there are nowhere near enough bathrooms at WDW in general, but that's a whole other topic. Point being is that they knocked down that old building and cleared way for increased traffic flow, added toilet facilities AND add additional theming to Fantasyland expansion. Originally it's said that the tower was going not be to be forced perspective, but rather a "real life" full size tower. The execution of the overall area is really done just how you would expect it to be: perfectly themed and artistically on point. I love the wanted posters and if you look for an employee doorway at to the right of the ladies room you'll find a very serious Maximus greeting you! I love it. Why not 5 stars? Well, because it's bathrooms and planters and a cool tower. If there was a bit more use for the area, other than 1 and 2, then it would be five star with an attraction, show or character meet & greet area. I really do like this addition. Rapunzel was a big movie with my girls when they were younger and Ive a soft heart for it. Its a cool area that I look forward to seeing develop over the next few years.

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, located on the ground level, is a salon where kids can get a "princess makeover." Cinderella's Royal Table, located on the second floor, is a royal-themed restaurant with Character Dining. Disney princesses like Cinderella, Snow White, and Aurora show up to greet guests and for photo ops. Speaking of photos, there are lots of good vantage points in front of and around the castle to take pictures, especially at the central plaza / castle hub. We found the Disney PhotoPass Memory Maker package worth it, especially for the castle, since there were several photographers stationed at the best spots with little to no wait. Since 2006, Cinderella Castle has been used as part of the Disney movie logo. From 1985 to 2006, it was Sleeping Beauty Castle in the logo. In real life, Cinderella Castle is bigger and newer than Sleeping Beauty Castle. Cinderella Castle opened with Disney World on October 1, 1971. Sleeping Beauty Castle opened with Disneyland on July 17, 1955. A second version of Cinderella Castle opened at Tokyo Disneyland on April 15, 1983.

It's not a ride, it's a memory machine. The ride itself is short--just a couple minutes of glowing sets and twinkling lights--but it's pure magic. Flying over the tiny London streets, drifting into Neverland, seeing Captain Hook run for his life--it's as close as you'll ever get to feeling like Disney bottled childhood. It's the ride that proves nostalgia doesn't need G-forces. The problem? The line. Always long. Always. Doesn't matter if it's rope drop, midnight, or during a hurricane--you're looking at 60 minutes minimum. This is the only ride where the wait time is longer than Peter's attention span. You'll stand there for an hour for a ride that lasts three minutes, and you'll still walk out smiling like a fool. A little history flex: Peter Pan's Flight was one of Disneyland's original 1955 rides, imported to Disney World in 1971. Back then, Imagineers wanted you to "be" Peter Pan, which is why Peter wasn't even in the ride originally. Guests were confused, so they added him later. Translation: people waited an hour just to wonder where the main character was. The line is longer than Wendy's bedtime story. Peter Pan's Flight is short, simple, and still one of the most magical rides in Disney history. The line is brutal, the payoff is quick, but the memory sticks with you forever. Because in the end, everyone grows up--except this ride, and that's exactly why we love it.

    I really enjoyed the Tomorrowland Transit Authority (TTA) PeopleMover in Magic Kingdom at Disney…read moreWorld. It's a relaxing ride that takes you on a tour of Tomorrowland with elevated views. The ride goes inside and out--you'll go through Space Mountain and also see Cinderella Castle, the Tomorrowland Speedway, and the retro-futuristic Astro Orbiter (to name a few attractions). I love the 1920s and 30s pulp science fiction and 1960s Space Age look (Googie architecture) of Tomorrowland. The PeopleMover at Magic Kingdom opened in 1975 (four years after the park opened) and includes a model of Progress City, Walt Disney's vision for EPCOT in the 1960s. The PeopleMover actually stopped on us when we were next to the diorama of Progress City, so I got to look at it for a while. I found the seats in the vehicles to be quite comfortable with good lower back support. There was no Lightning Lane for the PeopleMover. On a non-holiday Monday around 4:00 PM, the line was long. We waited about 10-15 minutes, which felt like a long time since we had been using Lightning Lanes for most of our recent trip to Disney World. This is the only Disney PeopleMover still in operation. I hope it never closes. The PeopleMover in Tomorrowland at Disneyland (California) opened in 1967 and closed in 1995.

    The peoplemover is a nice way to get an overall view of Tomorrowland.

The continuous moving loading and unloading platform can be slowed to accommodate people with some movement challenges. It is not uncommon for the ride to shut down at times for various mechanical reasons but it is not usual for it to not be operating for extended periods of time. Overall it is a nice relaxing ride around Tomorrowland with views of the various attractions and castle. If timed just right, you can get some really cool views during the fireworks shows. It also has views into Space Mountain. Even after multiple visits we usually still ride the attraction even though it is virtually unchanged in years. Likely the next "change" will be when the updated version of the Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin attraction nears completion you may be able to start getting a sneak peak at the updates.
