1) I hope they put up another theater.
2) The Studios could sure use another live performance.

The current Sounds Dangerous theater is where they used to do the Monster Sound show, right? So it's not that one. The one where they used to do the Doug show is now the Playhouse Disney place, right?
I never realized how confusing all those Studios theaters are.
The ABC Theater is the theater where Superstar Television was once housed....

Body Wars? That can't be right....
How do you use a FastPass for an attraction that doesn't have a FastPass line, anyway?

What is the point of this? I don't believe I have ever had to wait any longer than the next show, at least in the last 20 years. And Body Wars? So if I get one of these do I get to use it?

In December of 2003 the Mission:Space FastPass kiosks gave out Surprise FastPasses for Body Wars while the Wonder of Life pavilion was operating during the 2003 Holiday Season. The Surprise FastPasses ended when the Wonders of Life pavilion went back to being dormant.

The pass essentially serves as a front-of-the-line pass since there is not a dedicated FastPass Return Queue.

Meet and Argh?
9/10/07 Character Cast have reported that the Magic Kingdom is preparing to test a Jack Sparrow Meet and Greet in Adventureland during regular park hours. While few details are available at this time, the test period is expected to start sometime this month.
I'm confused ... why would they issue Fastpasses to an attraction that is always a walk-on? And has no Fastpass?
They must be trying desperately to drive traffic CoP's way.
Also, haven't they had a Jack Sparrow meet-n-greet for months now? I know I've seen him out in Caribbean Plaza a bunch of times.

I'm pretty sure that this was operating in May of 2004 when I was at Epcot because I distinctly remember first laughing at the surprise FastPass for Body Wars and then laughing harder when I never ended up using it.
Also, FastPass for the Carousel of Progess might be the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard of.

Pretty much.

Street Show, but not a Meet and Greet. Jack Sparrow is not available for photos, autographs or the like before or after the Street Show.
The only time there has been a Meet and Greet has been during the Pirate & Princess Parties. Likely based on the average 30 minute lines during the parties, park management has decided to try it out during regular park hours. It should be of-note to see what happens to the Street Show during this test period.

Quite probable. I seem to recall it coming back once more, but wasn't sure of a date.

Any idea wgen all 3 rooms at Toontown will be back open. The wait is soooo long with 3 I can't imagine how long with only 2. We will be there in 6 weeks. I hope they are all open then. It would be great if there was a 2nd princess room.
Here you leave Today and enter the World of Yesterday, Tomorrow, and Fantasy
Next Trip-February 5th-16th! Happy V-day to me!

I am pretty furious about the crane being up while I am there, and while a bunch of us Intercotees will be there. I hope that they will be able to move the crane so it is possible to get some pictures without it. I hope it isn't in the way all the time.
I guess it will make my dad happy, since he says I take too many pictures of it anyway. I'll have to take a million of SSE!

SO excited about the (tentative) Jack Sparrow meet and greet! BUT...does this mean they won't be doing the pirate tutorial during these dates? Or do you think the m&G would be after the tutorial?
