    Some people love Rivers of Light, some people think it’s fine. I love it, but it’s not worth the FP imo.

    Thanks @SEJ101 I think if we did it we wouldn’t use the FP as we would go on a quiet day in MK. How would you compare it to Fantasmic? I haven’t seen that one in many years.

    Fantasmic I would say is better, but the message and tech isn’t as impressive. The tech of Rivers of Light blew me away but it lacks some story. :sorcerer: :mal:

    @grumpytude Honest bare bones review on RoL. It’s BEAUTIFUL! It truly is a beautiful show and I think the theme of it fits well with Animal Kingdom. However, it is way too short! We were expecting probably a good another 10 to 15 minutes and just like that it was over. Heather summed it up well I think when she said it doesn’t really build to a climax. See it if you can, I wouldn’t use a FP on it though. We had the dining package but we wanted to eat at Tusker House anyway so it wasn’t anything we weren’t going to do. Fantasmic is the better show in my opinion.

    I’ve seen ROL one time. I wasn’t impressed but… I was also extremely miserable that day – the air was so still in that stadium (in August) that I felt sick from the heat and general exhaustion of park day number 4. Unlike @nascfan, I thought it lasted way too long but, again, I was just THAT uncomfortable. As it stands, I’m planning to see it again next month and I’m hoping to enjoy it more.

    Thanks @connie96. I think it will depend on if we get a FoP fastpass and if the pass is in AM or PM. If it’s in the morning we would probably not stick around but hop to another park after we are done in AK. :santamickey:

    @Grumpytude I was also very excited to finally see ROL and was left dissapointed. It’s definatly worth seeing once. The length was ok it just didnt seem to go anywhere for me. The music was also not very memorable like a wishes or ROE score.

    Try Tee public @Grumpytude. They have lots of cool different Disney shirts.

    Thanks @ferg that is a good one. We have done the I’m going to Disney World shirts before but different Dinsey shirts would be great. @jamiedawn27 what is the name of the place you get the fun tees? :pluto:

    I don’t really remember thinking RoL was either too long or too short. I will agree that there isn’t really a story, or a climax. The show is kind of the same thing throughout. Lots of really beautiful and impressive effects! You’re also pretty close which is cool, even if you have good seats at the front, you’re pretty far from all the action in Fantasmic. I did not care much for the RoL music but it fit with the show I guess. It definitely is a good fit for Animal Kingdom. I also agree, go see it for sure, but if you can only see RoL or Fantasmic, go see Fantasmic. But then that is my favorite nighttime show at the World :sorcerer: :mal:

    Site is http://www.teepublic.com. Watch out cuz you will lose hours just looking! Sales are frequent and usually $14/ shirt.

    Btw I liked RoL. I thought it was beautiful. Hubby thought some of it was cool but too long and a little boring
