Ride Overview
Our Rating(Out of 5):
Presentation
The show is very original in how it shows how sounds are important in the movie making process without actually making the guest feel like they're being educated.
4.5
Guest Appeal
Only those afraid of the dark or loud noise will not enjoy this attraction. Grandma and little Johnny should have no trouble.
4.5
Disney World Veteran Rating
This is no Tower of Terror but it's still a worthwhile attraction to experience.
4
Teen Rating
Drew Carrey humor usually goes over very well with teens.
4.5
Lasting Appeal
The show is the same so it may get old after a while. Enjoy it while you can.

Full Description: Sounds Dangerous replaces the old sound effects show with Chevy Chase. This new one, features Drew Carey, and pits him as the star of a new television show that the studio is piloting(showing to see if it works) which to us, the guest, is a quick demo of how sound effects make movies and TV that much better. It's quite funny, and great for those with a well developed sense of humor. During the show, you wear earphones to maximize the effects of the sounds you hear and as your introduced to the stars of the show(Drew et al).
The only pitfall of this is that two thirds of the show is in pitch blackness. We're talking you can pick someones nose and they won't know who did it. For most people, that's fine but those who are afraid of the dark(young ones in particular) may want to avoid it. For everyone else, its a great little show and worth stopping by.
Comments: Sounds Dangerous is a great attraction. The wait is, unfortunately outside, so there's no air conditioning for those to wait and if you get to the wait later than others, you'll be right in the sun. Since it's a show, there's only one audience at a time, so lines can appear long. The good news is once you get in, you're greeted with frigid air conditioning that makes you forget you're in Florida, and a nice chair to sit in. The comedy appeals to just about anyone, and although some jokes are a bit crude and may make Grandma cringe, well....she'll be in the dark so no one can see her. :)
