I think they are at the new theaters...
Yes, they are at some. We have a new semi-IMAX (it isn't full IMAX but it is bigger than regular screens) theater and they have those here.....

To get back on topic, however...
...thinking on it, is the Great Movie Ride a possible nap-able ride? It's slow, you're seated, it's air-conditioned, no quick turns - seems like the perfect ingredients for a nap...

Except for the gunfire and gangsters

I suppose if you could sleep through that, Robin Williams'
"GOOD MORNING VIETNAM" would wake you up...

Just wake me up in time to disembark...

Really with the Great Movie Ride it can depend a lot on who you get, how well the cast member is getting into the role. I have had great ones and ones who just kinda blahed their way through it. I can tell you which one I liked better..
But still, not the most exciting. I like riding it cause you get to sit down and stay cool for a while and rest your feet

I find The Hall of Presidents to be a total snooze... I can't stand it! Never have been able to, never will.

I think it has already been voted as WDW MK's #1 Snoozefest.

Yeah I'm sure but I still had to throw it out as my personal favourite one to nap to.

I can't think of anything more boring than The Hall of Presidents. But I already voted for that 3 pages back.

Did anyone ever fall asleep in Spaceship Earth? I didn't, but I think it would qualify...slow, smooth, no too bright lights...

The gentle flickering of a little television screen on your descent...

...not to mention a dumb script that could put you to sleep if you tune it out...
