I could hardly hear the dialogue when the seats started moving in synth with the Carriage scene.

The Shrek Pre-Show is excellent. The main show is awful and the seat moving is a detriment because of how poorly it's executed.

I'd really like to hear from somebody who's actually been in the theater and seen the show. Has anyone?

I'm gonna give Shrek 4D an edge over Pixar. At least you get physical elements in the preshow, as well as the Tinkerbell effect in the theater. Do the seats move in Pixar?

All the best jokes were in the pre-show for Shrek 4D.

If only there wasn't precedent for this already (see: 4D, Shrek)

Embarrassing to the entire amusement park industry.

I'm liking this idea

True.. However, it would definitely be a totally different experience, though. And wouldn't rely on musical numbers! Therefore being able to use many non-musical Disney films.

I like the idea, but the story is kind of similar to Philharmagic, where Donald traveles through different Disney universes.

I saw it in 2001, 2012, and 2013.

I, personally, still prefer the Wonders of Life pavilion Inside Out takeover instead... With a new family-thrill Dreamfinder/Figment 4D attraction in the Magic Eye... Similar to the STYLE of say the Jimmy Neutron attraction that was at Universal.. Have Dreamfinder and Figment go on a high-flying adventure with Dreamfinder's new Imagination-transporter, transporting through different Disney universes.

Riley's First Date wasn't exactly that good a short for a theme park 3D show. Thing I've heard is Inside Out's just gonna be the long-term replacement for the Magic Eye rather then a full pavilion takeover and I'd rather it stay that way and we get Figment and Dreamfinder back together in the ride itself.

Sooooo..... Has anyone even stepped foot in this attraction yet? Even over new years? Or is that maximum 10 minute wait during the holidays just a MDE prank?
