    I live near Six Flags (the original) and I get dragged there maybe 2-5 times a year, because of family, friends, etc. Where the wait time for most rides is 1h+ for a fraction of the fun.

    If I had a choice I would wait 1.5h to ride Star Tours over a 1h wait for The Titan

    Seriously, I defy anyone to go into your neighborhood Best Buy and find something like that Finding Nemo subs experience. It's projections of characters and effects elements (like that flowing lava effect) integrated with practical sets, both wet and dry, except for the parts that don't involve projections at all, like the first five minutes of the ride before you even enter the dark show building. I would never have thought of it as "watching television".
    Still, the "Ghost Galaxy" overlay is kind of mediocre. That seems to be the consensus, but I think we can all deal with it for a month.
