Happily Ever After 6 minutes longer than Wishes...

I hope this is a good thing, maybe as many or more fireworks. Or longer to add more projections in between.

I watched Disney Illuminations last night which is 19 minutes. I wonder if we will see similarities between the two.

 

[Madonna3]

I'm excited to see the new show and perhaps it has been extended since there is no longer a parade.

 

[BigRed98]

After hearing the music being added and now that it's gonna be longer than wishes, I personally think Happily Ever After is gonna be great. I think Disney realizes how much Wishes was loved so there gonna do there best to make this one just as good or maybe even better.

 

[DVCCarly]

I'm going to reserve judgment until I see it! I'm excited but also so sad to lose Wishes at the same time, it will always be my all time favourite! The little snippet of the song they released so far hasn't won me over, but it's hard to say how it's going to feel once the fire works actually get going!

I'm gonna wait and see...if this were a casino, I'd better the under on your assessment though.

I don't honestly think Disney cares nearly as much about these shows as they used too...they seem to be trying to balance revenue tied to it and cost...

I bet there are less fireworks to reduce costs...but we'll see

No Disney Illuminations is the new Paris show.

 

[lockedoutlogic]

Oh THAT? Ok

 

[Madonna3]

No Disney Illuminations is the new Paris show.

What?

 

[lockedoutlogic]

What?

Apparently there's a new show in Paris...and as always Disney is reusing names for no valid reason whatsoever

 

[rteetz]

What?

Disneyland Paris kicked off their 25th anniversary celebration this week. Their new projection/fountain/firework show is called Disney Illuminations.

Sweet! I can't wait for a lot of Star Wars and Frozen in MK's nightly fireworks spectacular!

Ugh.

 

[hakepb]

Ugh.

Honestly, I would be extremely disappointed if we got any "pew-pew" fight scenes in MK.
Star Wars is a lot of fun, but there's a park for that, DHS.

Wishes relied a lot on the most popular , recent Disney cartoon at the time, Aladdin. I would not be surprised if the new show includes the current, most popular Disney cartoon.

I saw this before and totally zoned out, but seriously, no BatB, no Cinderella, no Pan, nothing from the golden age? For real?

 

[cdnusagurl]

So no more Tink flying over the castle at night? Well that is disheartening.

They have said she will.

Well that is wonderful to hear.
