Certainly popular. The line was well formed an hour before the show during our trip. They even changed the schedule awhile back to add a show during the day.

My guess, this will be the next Disney Broadway selection.

Maybe it's because there aren't that many attractions in Animal Kingdom, so people don't have much of a choice. :P

I love the musical... the only problem is I haven't seen it yet... I just hope I don't make myself sick of the music before I actually get to see it

This has quickly become one of my favorite attractions at WDW. For one thing, it's a great show. And second, it reminds me of my daughter when she was very young.

We saw this attraction on our last visit. DD4 (at the time) LOVED this. We sang the music "In the Big, Blue World" all throughout the vacation. The music is very good and the puppetry and presentation is excellent. This is a must-see attraction.

But Nemo has a much-more sentimental feeling to me. When my daughter was around 7 months old, we were shopping at Toys 'R Us. I was holding my daughter when she began kicking, pointing and saying 'Mo. Mo.' We looked around and there was a Nemo poster. That was the first thing she told us she liked. Needless, we've seen the movie at least 200 times. Still, everytime I hear the music, I cry. And I cried at the attraction, as well. (I was holding my daughter in my arms.)

My goodness, I just love WDW!!!!! And I love sharing it with my girls!!!!!

I really love this show! My family and I were blown away by the beauty of the costumes, and music. I love before the show when nemo is on the walls and every time he appears everyone is shouting "Nemo Nemo Nemo" lol I have never walked out of the show without enjoying it!

Agree! When I was last in AK the queues were very large for this and we ended up having to stand at the back. That put a bit of a damper on it (that and the cast members running around shouting "no cameras" at people throughout the performance).

I thought the show was very well done and love the music.

The full un-edited show has now been put on SR! :lol:

Just because "fish are friends, not food" doesn't mean they're not part of the animal kingdom :wink:

I love the show, love the music, love everything about Finding Nemo the Musical!!! The music fits perfectly with the movie, I dont know why Disney*Pixar didnt incorporate the music into the movie in the first place. Love it, love it, I think that everyone should see it at least once. I definitly would suggest that you get there early b/c if you are left with standing room only you wont appreciate it as much as you should. My opinion, if it means anything to anyone. :mickey:

There is no music in Finding Nemo. I mean, there is a score like any movie, but there are no typical Disney songs. They created all of that music specifically for the live musical.

I thought that Finding Nemo the Musical was cool but in all honesty I didn't like their arrangements and some of the music sounded... not so well. I loved Dory in the movie and in the musical she was annoying. Also I had to stand up even though we were almost the first ones to get it!

However, I loved the show's atmosphere, oh and the AC.

Did you ever hear a broadway score/songs before seeing the show? In a way, it's the same thing. Sometimes, when you just hear the music and you haven't seen all of the visual entertainment, it's hard to enjoy just the music. Nemo really does have a great deal of visual entertainment. Although the story line is the same as the movie, seeing this show puts a different spin on it. It is not to be missed!!

I think you either love it or you hate it. The show itself is good and probably will wound up on broadway like the little mermaid however it probably wont be the same show
