Thirded, always been a bit lost on me, even when the kids were younger.

In times past, we were the same - looked at the queues and thought "is it worth it?".

I'd quite like the choice now to make my own mind up. Amazing how lockdown has changed perspectives on experiences we never took the opportunity to look at.

Another one who doesn't like it, but it's always good to see them bringing entertainment back. Looks like a huge refurb based on the latest aerials, so probably not any time soon.

I've always quite enjoyed it, the pre buildup with americans is often pretty good as well, Mexican waves etc, there wasn't really anything really similar at the time (projections on water) etc, now there are other shows and things that are maybe better, I haven't seen this on my last visit but would consider seeing it again on my next for sure.

We love Fantasmic! It really feels like it has heart - and interesting to try sitting in different places because you really notice different details sitting right up front vs sitting further back.

Love how huge the cast is for the show (instead of it just being projections all the way through)!

Pro tip is that they used to have a candied nut stall at the back of the stands, loved munching on sugared almonds before the show started

It is my favourite thing to do/see in WDW hands down. I hope it’s back soon.

Insidethemagic.net are reporting on the construction going on in Fantasmic.

Lots of construction which can only be a positive sign.

Personally I've always enjoyed Fantasmic, I think for me it is just pure nostalgia I still remember my very first time when I went when I was 15! Don't get me wrong it's not amazing, but always one I don't like to miss.
