Ah, I thought you meant an attraction and were confusing it with SGE in MK. I saw Lilo & Stitch outside Dinoland USA. I don't have much of a problem with that, after all the characters aren't stationary and Stitch is animal-esque. They especially make sense at Camp Minnie-Mickey.

Now AwallaceUNC! I know I make my spelling errors(I don't proof-read at all, just not something I'm good at) and make more edits than most people, but being a huge Disney theme park fan, I would NEVER say something like SGE is at AK! C'mon, give me a break!

I am actually happy to hear this. Out of all the shows in the Animal Kingdom (Lion King & Pocahontas), I thought Tarzan was the weakest. When we saw it, it was so loud and I felt like it was a waste of my time because I didn't enjoy the show.

I partly agree with danamichelle. Tarzan Rocks really was very loud and in your face, but I found it a nice celebration of Phil Collins' music, but not really the story of Tarzan. I guess that's why they added "Rocks" to the title. The show was good for me, but not good enough for multiple viewings.
Someone mentioned a Jungle Book Show...I don't remember one. What was it about? Was it short lived? I remember when we visited AK probably a year after opening, the only shows were Festival of the Lion King, Pocahontas and her Forest Friends, and the bird show. We only saw LK.
I agree with Timon / Pumbaa fan that there shouldn't be a Finding Nemo show in AK. Finding Nemo has every reason to be in AK seeing as the characters fit in the kingdon animalia, but a FN show seems ridiculous. Finding Nemo on Ice has already proved how ridiculous fish look with human actors. Unless they do something with puppetry, I don't see how Disney could pull off a stage show staring mainly fish. Would Disney be writing new songs for this show? Nearly all...okay maybe all... of their shows have at least one musical number.
You'd think considering where Tarzan Rocks is located (Dinoland), they'd put a dinosaur themed attraction in its place rather than a show about Austrailian coral reef fish and sharks and turtles...

It only lasted a year since 1999 was also was the year Tarzan came in theaters.
Well I'm glad to see people agree with me!

Okay, fish are animals, I actually never said they weren't animals, but they aren't land animals which just kills the entire theme of the park! They already have alot of Nemo at Epcot, and quite enough at MGM, do they really need so much Finding Nemo overkill? Heck do they even need so much Pixar overkill... okay I'm not going down that road again!:lol: Just read my thoughts above!
Also, how about Brother Bear for a new attraction! Bears are good land animals! It can still keep the original idea for a "rock" show, since it has music written by the same artist(Phil Collins). Plus Brother Bear needs a good attraction, unlike Nemo.
