Another Roger and Indy queue?
At DL they have probably the most creative and most interactive queue lines at any park. Indiana Jones' decoding the messages on the wall, the "don't disturb the bats", "don't pull the rope", or watch overhead for spikes!!
Roger Rabbit however has too many interactions, I could not possibly be able to write them all down.
OK, the 90's are over, so what happended? The queue became less interactive. There are still some good queues but still not the ones like Indy and Roger have.

Do you think have enough time to go the bathroom before the next show?

I don't know if they really have lessened the "interactivity" of queues. I like the Muppet Vision one at DCA where they kept a lot of the poster gags from the one at Disney Studios. I've noticed in the boiler room of Tower of Terror (DCA) there are some references to Twilight Zone with sounds and a bit of sights (there's a reference to an episode on the second floor queue where there's a circle drawn and every once in a while you hear a voice).
I think it could depend on the ride. Buzz Lightyear seems a little interactive with the AA Buzz, but I don't think it needs an elaborate line because of the speed of getting people through the ride.
I can think of one queue made in the 90's that I can't stand waiting in line for: Rock N' Roller Coaster. Until you get close to the preshow it is sooo boring (to me).

See, I just REALLY want those queues that even though the line is REALLY LONG like Roger Rabbit, you have so much to do and look at. Roger Rabbit I think is probably the best queue even compared to Indy.

Star Tours for me... Although the Paul Reubens stuff has aged a bit for me, C3P0 and R2D2 is still pretty cool for me, along with the "space terminal" audio...
The "making of..." pre-video for Captain Eo added a lot to what you were about to see... Kind of behind the scenes for Disney though...

No, no... He's got a point.

Yeah. I really wished the Finding Nemo line at Disneyland had something interesting. (Since it is an outside line, there isn't much that can be done.)
The Indy line is great. The line moves fast enough now that they don't hand out the decoders for the walls anymore. I would have liked to decode the walls while waiting. Luckily, I'm sure there is some website that has decoded the entire thing already.

I used to collect these, my friend and I did decode the whole ride when it first opened. But now I forgot a lot of them. We almost got to the point where we could translate without needing the card.Magique wrote: I would have liked to decode the walls while waiting.

The Pirates queue at WDW is pretty important to the attraction story itself. It's basically the whole first half of the Disneyland ride. Both Kali and Everest have a lot of stuff to read and look at. And as much as I hate to say it, I think the new JII queue is the only good thing that came out of redoing the pavilion. There's lots of things to look at that have to do with imagining and inventing.

How do you know. Have you ever actually waited in line for it?Cheshire Cat wrote:The Pirates queue at WDW is pretty important to the attraction story itself.

Heck, even on days when Spaceship Earth is an hour wait, an HISTA fastpasses are gone by lunch, I've never even been in a full car.
