Definitely the better of the two attractions compared to it's sibling in WDW. While I may not have maxed out the score, my first attempt here was definitely higher owing to better accuracy from being able to pick up the blaster. Maybe a few more trips to the west coast are in order to get that second badge? The fun factor was huge here, seeing different layouts. Lines can be long though, so if you're time is limited (i never thought I'd say this) Disney Genie+ is going to be your best friend if you're traveling cross country
Pros:
You Get to pick up and hold the blaster!!!!Cons:

One of my favorite attractions at Disneyland. Everytime my husband and I go to Disneyland we always have to go on Astro Blasters for some "friendly" competition. It adds a little more fun to our Disneyland day. It also helps that we're both big Toy Story fans.
Pros:
Interactive attraction, very funCons:

This is my favorite Pixar ride ever. While I'm at it, I should also mention that it was my first one. Every time I go to Disneyland, I always have to ride it. It doesn't matter when. It just matters that I go on it.
Pros:
fun ride for everybodyCons:

This ride is a blast! You get to ride a ride and play a video game at the same time. The major downfall is that some kids may not get it. We took my niece when she was 2 years old, and she was scared and didn't enjoy shooting the aliens. As she's gotten older, she enjoys playing and trying to beat the adult's scores.
Pros:
Video game and dark ride combinedCons:
May not be suitable for younger children, even if they are tall enough to ride.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 01/27/2021

SOOOO much fun!! We ride this over, and over, and over, and over again every time we go.... Trying to max out your score is so much fun! Great for kids and adults. Perfect!!
Pros:
- Interactive - Re-ridability - Good for all ages - Great pre-show/queue with the Buzz animatronic and the etch a sketch!Cons:

Super fun interactive element. I like that there is a trick to getting a higher score with some targets being higher points than others and still skill involved as they are harder to hit. Fun for all ages as you can ride without playing or ride it over and over again to beat your score.
Pros:
Re-rideability, interactive.Cons:
If the wrong person has the joystick the movement can be a little nauseating.Reviewed by mcenut Review Date: 11/30/2020

Amazingly fun interactive dark ride. Fun for the whole family. Since the ride vehicle can rotate 360 degrees some riders may get motion sick if they are extremely sensitive or not feeling well. Overall one of my favorite must do attractions in Tomorrowland.
Pros:
Interactive, fun for all agesCons:
In extreme and rare circumstances riders can become motion sick.Reviewed by Falbo Review Date: 07/09/2020

This ride is awesome. You have laser gun things where you try to shoot the bad guys. I once got the highest points that you can get and a sweet cast member gave me a special pin I still have!
Pros:

"Dark" omnimover ride where you use an arcade style blaster to hit moving and nonmoving targets to rack up points and help defend the galaxy from the evil emperor Zurg. One of my spouse's favorites. We do this three or four times a day whenever we visit. Great for competitors. The ride automatically takes your photo in the main room and shows it to you on the way out to email to yourself.
Pros:
Super fun for the whole family, cute interior queue with giant Buzz and a few hidden mickey's, cool and indoorsCons:
The exterior part of the queue is completely exposed to the heat, shuts down often, though usually only for a few minutes, blasters often inaccurate, photos often don't come outReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 01/14/2020
