| I am a huge fan of the C S Lewis books and will be interested to see the film of The Lion ,The Witch and the Wardrobe.
Timed for its release is a new exhibit at Disneys MGM Studios. A press release was issued
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- In the great tradition of Disney attractions which put guests in the middle of movies and stories, Disney-MGM Studios will host an exciting walk-through experience based on the upcoming Disney Pictures and Walden Media motion picture release, "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe."
For fans of C.S. Lewis' timeless adventure, and for the worldwide audience who will be entranced by the new movie, Disney-MGM Studios transforms a soundstage into the frozen world of Narnia and takes guests behind the scenes of the movie-making magic of the epic film. The attraction, "Journey Into Narnia: Creating The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe," is scheduled to open Dec. 9, the same day the film premieres around the world.
Guests will enter the frozen world of Narnia through a giant wardrobe and be surrounded by a wintry landscape, enormous trees, and a replica of the lamppost as seen in the movie. In the distance, they will see the house of Mr. Tumnus, one of the central characters, beneath a rock bluff outcropping and the White Witch's Castle. All in all, Walt Disney World guests will feel as though they have really entered the magical world of C.S. Lewis' story.
Guests will exit through a gallery that showcases elaborate creatures, costumes, armor, maquettes, storyboards, props and set pieces used in the making of the film.
Something to watch out for if you are there at that time

| Hi Folks
This feature was still there last week. I have to say it was a bit of a dissapointment. The set is quite impressive (but alas no photography), you get a brief (live) appearance from the snow queen and then a 5 minute trailer for the movie.
There are a few props and models to view on the way out.
If you are a big fan and there is no queue it is worth doing though, just to relive the film!! | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| | We found this to be a huge disappointment. The best bit was walking through the wardrobe doors. The snow queen bit was very short and then it was basically a trailer for the film. I thought that we were waiting for the main attraction - as we walked out we realised that was the attraction. If there is no queue have a look just so you know but otherwise I wouldn't bother. | | Report this post to a moderator | goto top of page |

| I have to agree with the above. It was just a glorified advert for the new film, and was a massive disappointment. Saying that though, it was a relief to have a break from the blazing sun!!
