For movie buffs, there is Disneys MGM studios where you can watch and take part in Indiana Jones, sitting in the audience in a huge outdoor arena, you see how parts of the film were made, watch out for the huge explosions. Mickey's extravaganza is a huge hit, the show starts at night, try to get there early (6-7pm) as it fills up very quickly.
