    I know not everyone is a Princess meet and greet fan, but gazillions of young girls are, so what a nice addition to the parks.

    The pass-through allowed access to the restrooms, as well as to Zocalo, so I would imagine they'll keep it.

    That will stay, but what about the trail from the Frontierland Pin Shop to the Carnation area?

    I have less of a problem with it when Disney themes things well and keeps the storytelling in context. An elaborate character meet and greet in Fantasyland makes perfect sense, and like you said, this is going to be a nice addition for the legions princess fans.

    Hey, if people are willing to pay to see her, she should go as long as she enjoys it. She's made a great career of it (and good for her).

    I just found it odd that an old woman is playing a young boy.

    "I know not everyone is a Princess meet and greet fan, but gazillions of young girls are, so what a nice addition to the parks."

    Big improvement over what was there. I won't be standing in line for the princesses, but is sure looks great.

    Although, I have to admit, that's better than, say, Kirk Douglas playing Heidi.

    "Old" is relative. I don't think of 60 as "old". Especially, since I passed 50 a few years back and am racing towards it!

    I'd pay to see that at least once. Especially if there's a real bear.

    Personally, I don't think the Pixar films would go over well, at least visually, in a live stage show.

    I don't see how it would go over any worse than your standard rubberhead Disney show.

    Besides that, <a href="http://travelwithkids.about.com/od/disneyworld/ss/finding_nemo_sh.htm" target="_blank">http://travelwithkids.about.co...o_sh.htm</a>
