Icon5 Tarzan Rocks? Or used too..?

Yes, I know! Where the Mickey have I been, right? I am sure this was discussed before...

But, the last time my family visited Disney - two years ago - we really enjoyed "Tarzan Rocks." I heard they closed the attraction and replaced it?

They replaced it with a Finding Nemo show. It is good, but we miss the Tarzan show.

Re: Tarzan Rocks? Or used too..?

Do you think my 12 year old son would like it?

Honestly i don't know if he would. It is really long and i found it to be just so so... I wasn't a fan of Tarzan Rocks either but i did enjoy it more that the Nemo musical. The only good thing is that the Nemo show is in air conditioning unlike Tarzan Rocks.

It depends on what your son is like... if he's Mr. Macho who doesn't like kiddy things, then no. If he's open-minded and enjoys watching gigantic puppets, then yes.

okay... I'll stop dissing the puppets. and the show. but I didn't like it. I'm 15.

Re: Tarzan Rocks? Or used too..?

If it is air conditioned, that might be something to consider if it gets too hot... But, I can imagine my son will be really bored.

That's too funny!

Yep, he is a little bit of a macho man... We should probably stay away from the show...

Yes... air-conditioning and a break from the sun are two positives.

Re: Tarzan Rocks? Or used too..?

WDW has a little video on the page for the show that includes the main song Big Blue World
Walt Disney World Resort - Detecting Browser Properties . . .
It is the same song used at the end of the new Nemo ride at Epcot. For cryin out loud why don't they just gut Small World and replace it with Nemo Dolls and I heard that the HM will reopen with nothing but Nemo ghosts. And next up to be plused is Jungle Cruise and it will have a piranha scene in it like DLs but it won't be piranhas no it will be attack of the Clown fish. Space Mt. is going down for rehab and when it reopens it won't be SM no it will be Submarine Mt. and guests will zoom through the Big Blue World around Crush, Ray and Nemo! and another thing, I heard that if you dress like Nemo you can get into MNSSHP for free!
And over at the new Hollywood Studios they are going to fill the pool used for the special effects tank, you know the battle scene you watch on the walking tour, anyway they are going to fill that with clown fish too. Ariel will still be aloud to work over there but she now has to sing Big Blue World at the end of the show and Nemo will be making a cameo appearance in Sebastian's Under The Sea Number! And over at Epcot everybody thinks the new SE is going to be redone to tie in more closely with its new sponsor Seimans. Wrong! this is yet another opportunity to cram Nemo down our throats as it will be the evolution of the clown fish as told by Marlin.
Where's Nemo? where's Nemo? where's Nemo? I tell you where Nemo is PICK A PARK YOU CAN'T GET AWAY FROM HIM!

OMG I feel so much better now thanks

I totally agree. I am sick of Nemo.

And I hate "It's a Big Blue World." My brother sings that song all of the time to get under my skin. He and my little sister sat on both sides of me during the show, singing along. I was about to strangle both.

Re: Tarzan Rocks? Or used too..?

Wow, some strong opinions. Well, everyone is entitled to one, so here's mine. This is my new favorite show. I recently bought the cd at Wod NYC so I can listen to Big Blue Worl over and over.

I think you should at least see it once. It is truly awesome. The actors are top notch and the puppets add something new.

Definitely check it out. I think your DS just might enjoy it.

Re: Tarzan Rocks? Or used too..?

It was different, not what I expected and something I do not need to see every trip.

Oy! We had some heated discussions over this show before. We're all entitled to our opinions, just keep it nice please?

If you're interested in seeing a preview, go to youtube and search for Finding Nemo the musical. There are several clips posted there.

I agree . . . my DD3 LOVES it and will sing the song all day! My DD7 likes it too, but she is a Broadway Baby, loves stage shows, musicals and artsy stuff!! It is different, but it is done really well . . . and you are in a dark blue, a/c filled room with "mood" lighting . . . so its a great place to relax unwind and enjoy the show!

I agree, simply opinions. The CM's were great, the music was great, etc. again, it just was not what I expected. I LOVE The Lion King, never miss it and I cry everytime the show starts. There is just something so powerful about that show for ME. We also really enjoy The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast. We will go see Nemo again, just not at the top of my list. On a short trip we may skip it but I will be at The Lion King!
