Terrific Tuesdays: Finding Nemo – The Musical

Walt Disney World is great about sneaking in some cool resting places, which get you out of the Florida sun and let you take a quick break, all while still entertaining you! One great spot is Finding Nemo – The Musical in Animal Kingdom. This 1500 person theater comes alive with our friends from the sea: Marlin, Nemo, Dory, Crush and many other larger than life puppets. Each puppet is controlled by human puppeteers, dressed to blend with their characters. In fact, I will bet by the end of the show, you don’t even realize they are separate from the puppets – they become as one! Read more

Disney with Little Ones: Finding Nemo (and Dory) at Walt Disney World

13522949_10102198672649454_8660555227642462857_oIf your family is anything like mine, you rushed to the closest theater to see Finding Dory on opening weekend. We prefer to go to the 11am shows on Sunday morning to save a few bucks (shows before noon are only $6 at our local theater!) and to beat the crowds. The theater was pretty full, but not packed and not anywhere close to being sold out. Surprising, considering that this movie grossed an excess of $136 million – the highest opening for an animated film at the domestic box office (according to USA Today). 

Regardless, this isn’t a movie review other than to say we LOVED it. My kids have been asking to watch Finding Nemo and digging out Nemo, Bruce, and Dory toys that they had all but forgotten about. There’s no doubt that the crowds will be a little thicker around the Nemo-themed attractions at Walt Disney World Resort following the huge success of this latest Disney summer smash.  Read more

Terrific Tuesdays: Finding Dory….and Nemo

13443098_10153768528581234_3299973430337741854_oI had the good fortune to see the new movie, Finding Dory on Saturday night at the IMAX Theater. I have to say, I absolutely loved it! But while watching it and experiencing all that 3D does for a movie, it brought me back to thinking about the Finding Nemo show in Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Read more
