Originally Posted By DlandDug LM is a continuous loader and even when the line is long, it moves. By all means, get there early and don't be put off by the appearance of the line. We're talkin' Omnimover here.

It seemed a bit faster than either Mansion or Buzz. Just wondering if that is one way they might handle large lines in the beginning.
Originally Posted By FerretAfros I didn't notice it moving particularly faster or slower than the Haunted Mansion, but I know that Buzz is set at a slower speed, due to the small size of the building. This means that the queue should move at least as fast as the Buzz queue, especially since there are no FPs to slow it down (though Buzz doesn't have FPs any more either). I think it might feel faster in comparison because the time that you can view the main features in each scene (like Ursula or Ariel) is fairly short. That's due in part to the track design, as you are only looking at them when they're directly in front of you. The brighter lights also make it easier to see details, so you notice a little more, making it feel like you're moving faster (like going 70 mph in the desert vs in the woods).

It's what I live for, to help unfortunate merfolk, like yourself, poor souls with no one else to turn to. You got it, sweetcakes. No more talking, singing, zip.
