Originally Posted By FerretAfros I don't know for sure, but I would bet that the Maleficent preview runs through the end of the month. I know that WDW's Maleficent preview is being converted into a Guardians of the Galaxy preview by July 4 (DLR's will be at Captain EO), so I would suspect both of them to close around the same time
Originally Posted By CuriousConstance I think, if they are going to continue with these movie previews, I think they should set something up in it's own permanent spot and location, so when they want to preview a movie, they don't have to take down an attraction to do it. So the Muppets, Tough to be a Bug, and Captain EO (not that anyone really goes and sees that, but still) can still play despite any upcoming movie previews.
Originally Posted By phruby Just use the Captain EO theater as a futuristic movie house. Just keep routing the latest preview and maybe even a full length movie. They could show John Carter in an endless loop. It would be fresh and new since no one saw the movie in the theaters.
Originally Posted By familyguy TTBAB is really one of our favorite things to do at least once a trip. It's a really great way to cool off, relax, and honestly I love the show.

Unless there is a new movie preview there next year when we go. :-/

Originally Posted By familyguy That's amazing, Hans! That's the part I love about the show! I love the dark aspect of it. It gets pretty scary for the young ones and their reaction is priceless.
Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt I have to admit that I had to fight hard not to laugh Familyguy. With my own fear of spiders and being in the show for the first time I was little terrified myself. lol
Originally Posted By FerretAfros I agree that the Tomorrowland theater makes the most sense for movie previews, if they insist on continuing to do them. There's no real loss by not showing EO, and the films are coming out "in the future" so it sort of fits...well, it fits better than a 28-year-old music video
Originally Posted By CuriousConstance My son was three first time he was old enough to know what was happening in ITTBAB, and I remember when the seat feels like bug are crawling under you he jumped up terrified something was crawling on him. He hates bugs as much as I do. lol
Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt I would love to take a kid to DLR for their first trip. It would probably be more fun for me than for them.
Originally Posted By CuriousConstance It really is so fun. Me and the kids talk about our trips all of the time, and planning for a new trip is so much funner with kids involved too. We still laugh till we cry everytime we look at the picture of us on Splash Mountain, my husband was so terrified, he literally went down into the log, you can't even tell he's there in the picture, lol. And something possessed him to ride TOT with my brother on one trip. My brother said the entire time my husband shoved his face into his (my brother's) stomach screaming at the top of his lungs. LOL!!!

Originally Posted By FerretAfros Wow, I had no idea that show created such strong feelings in people! I always think of it as just another 3D movie!
Originally Posted By LuvsDsnyTrips It is kinda hard for me too....as I am not scared of bugs and spiders. I am the one called (in the office) to remove spiders when the other coworkers see them
