Mickey's Philhar Magic

Mickey's Philhar Magic

Just to make sure you get the point, THIS IS A MUST SEE ATTRACTION DURING YOUR WALT DISNEY WORLD STAY!!! This is one of the newest attractions. This is located in fantasy land in the magic kingdom. For those of you who love the lion king and have been to see the lion king show at the magic kingdom, sorry, it was replaced by this. (My mom almost cried. She loved that show.......) Now where was I? Oh yeah, this is a must see. This is a 3-D movie. I know what you are thinking. "I have already seen 3-D movies. I like rides better!" Think again. This 3-D movie is shown on a HUGE screen that spreads toward the edges of the room. This movie is full of laughter for adults and kids. This movie has Donald Duck as the main character. (Surprise surprise!) Donald Duck steal mickey's magical hat, (you know, the blue pointy one.) during the "philhar magic orchestra." The instruments are all controlled by that hat. Obviously, Donald Duck has no idea what he is doing and the instruments start attacking him. The hat goes away through a magic protal that the instruments shove donald into also. Donald goes through movies such as:

Beauty and the Beast, Fantaisia, The little mirmaid, the lion king, and aladain. (Did I spell that right?) If that still doesn't persuade you to come to this show, maybe this will. The show is full of sensory effects (don't worry, they are not scary like Stitch's Great escape's effects are.) These effects include, smell (the smell of cinimon.), water, and wind. I will make a short spoiler edition review about this attraction just explaining the sensory effects.

The first thing you see when you enter the line.

The line actually splits in two at this sign and the two lines meet up later.

This is a great attraction for all ages. AND IT HAS AIR CONDITIONING!!, making it a great place to cool off. I wouldn't worry about being here first thing in the morning. This is a movie after all, it can take many many people at a time. If you are still woried, use the FASTPASS available for this attraction. I have heard reports about little children being scared by the ending for this movie. It doesn't involve anything scary or loud, it is actually supposed to be funny. At the end of the show, Donald Duck heads right towards you and you hear a crashing noise, like he crashed into a wall. If you look behind you, Donald Duck's head is stuck in the wall and he yells for help. He then falls into the wall. Some kids could actually think Donald Duck is hurt. Take this into account if you are bringing REALLY young kids to this attraction. Kids 7 and older should be fine with the ending.

This is a show. Don't worry about the wait times. I THINK that times for the movie are on the Disney Times guide but I am not sure. If it makes you feel more comfortable, get a FASTPASS.
