Old Nemo was really the last breath of old WDE, years after it was dissolved, helped by the fact they had literal Broadway caliber writers involved. Shame we'll never see the 2 hour version ever. As for Lion King, it's cheap for Disney (relatively) and extremely popular. Disney has never really tried, beyond the Tarzan later Nemo, to put other shows in AK besides FOLTK - and it's unfortunate they haven't.

I'd say the old Nemo was the best show I've seen at WDW in ages. Lion King...while it was fun to see 90's California parade floats again, the show was the definition of overrated. This show feels a lot like when my friend was in Paw Patrol Live. Except that had more than one actor onstage and the dog puppets were visually interesting. This is just projected vague scenery and really bad material being carried by one actor at a time.

Thank goodness, as the full screen option posted by this site seems to be broken. Although every time you try and click the option, it forces the video to restart and play another ad, so the broken site feature is obviously adding revenue to WDWmagic's pockets.

I'd watch a Villains production of My Fair Lady.

Due to a surge in interest, an updated Villains show will feature Maleficent reciting “The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plane” until, to the audience’s delight, she finally achieves a perfect upper class London accent. Hook is rumored to have a dramatic act wherein the pirates are briefly transported to New Jersey and come back insisting that the stuff they are sailing in is called wooder.

This board is notorious for grasping at straws to make a point. If you don’t like the Villains show or think it should be better that’s fine. But don’t start throwing out random examples to prove something when it’s not that deep.

Yeah, both shows are meant to be major attractions for their respective lands. Heck, Le Cirque Arcanus is the ONLY attraction in the land when Ministry is having issues. Which is... not ideal, for such a big grand land.

That’s what happens when someone opens a new theme park in orlando. Which hasn’t happened in decades. People gonna talk.

Not to mention they are entirely different concepts. So mark this down as the 4000th random epic universe comment.

While I think the Villains show looks terrible, I'm not sure that's a fair comparison. The Universal HP show (as well as the HTTYD show) seems like it was designed as a relatively major attraction that will likely run for a long time, whereas Villains is a minor addition for extra (and needed) park capacity. It's a bit like comparing an E (or maybe D) ticket attraction to a C ticket. Not that that means Villains shouldn't be better than it is, though.
