[keith - SuPeR K!]

If you don't want to deal with any hassle, viewing from the pier side near Mickey's Fun Wheel is quite decent! I recommend standing at the railing directly to the left (if you are facing the water) of the hot dog stand, staying as close to the stand as you can without entering it. From there your view is mostly unobstructed and pretty close to centered so you can still see the projections including Zurg, albeit reversed! (You are basically looking between two of the lighting buildings that are out in the bay.) The two times I've watched from there we've arrived 5-10 minutes before showtime, though on busy nights it could get crowded early on for the 9pm show.
