PEPPER ANN* (BTW how do you show the m,usic symbvol on the boards) Anywho...lets hope...leave leave leave! Drew CArey isn't even as Disney person anymore. He is on CBS (which is home to my favorite show ever, well next to Samantha Who?, Big Brother) What ever happened to Power Of 5? Again anywho... wow we need some new shows at DHS *Begins talking to stuffed mickey then dozes off ino a dream about Spaceship Earth the movie*

It's to bad that so few people got the premise of the show, but I guess it was predictable.

The previous Monster Sound Show with Chevy Chase was FAR superior... it (gasp) actually showed how some sound effects were made and (double gasp) involved the audience. Sounds Dangerous should be replaced with something like that.

Originally Posted By plpeters70 <<Sounds Dangerous should be replaced with something like that.>> I completely agree, but they're not replacing it, are they? They're just making it seasonal - like the Wonders of Life went seasonal before they shut it down for good without a replacement. So, while I agree that it should be closed and replaced with something new, I don't think it's a benefit to the guests to just have an attraction closed most of the time. Especially in a park like DHS which already is lacking in things to do. (And for what it's worth, I thought it was ok the first time I saw it. Clearly not nearly as good as the old show, but not horrible.)

I mean, it was just bad. 7 minutes sitting there in darkness with headphones on. I was thinking, "Wow, this is some really unfunny stuff. I wonder if other people are laughing?" I removed my headphones to listen to the audience. Not a sound. It was dreadful.

We rearly missed it. The new one came we saw it once. We did go into the wait area a couple of years ago to give it another try but just couldn't make ourselves go in. My husband said he would rather sit on a bench and watch people yell @ their kids.
Originally Posted By brotherdave Our family actually enjoyed Sounds Dangerous. It wasn't our favorite attraction, but it was fun, especially the first time we saw it. And unlike Kar2oonMan's experience, it seemed like the whole audience was laughing during the presentation when we saw it. Regardless of how some people may feel about it, having it opened is better than another closed attraction.
Originally Posted By jmuboy A revised version of Monster Sound Show would be a great replacement. Its been so long since this show was in the park that a updated version with new stars and a fresh spin on the old script could work. And it would actually tie into the movie making theme of the park. Call me crazy, but I think its a good idea to revive Monster Sound. It certainly can't cost that much to produce.

Very unsanitary, even for an old bachelor like me! And the show just wasn't funny. They were doing things like this back in the 60's on the first stereo albums. What made Disney think that this old gag would have any longevity? While I don't like to see show buildings sitting quiet, I really won't miss this show.
