MK All-New Nighttime Parade Disney Starlight Set to Debut at Magic Kingdom in 2025

[rhythmlife07]

Leaving June 29.. going to miss it by a few weeks. Guess that’s gives me a reason to go back!!

 

[Comped]

I managed to score a reservation for opening night, just in case they restrict non-reservation-holding guests from getting into the park. Any chance we're going to see any special opening night merch?

LOL!!

Thank You!!!!!!! We Appreciate You and all the Insiders on Here!!!!

Music doesn’t sound bad. My fear: you hear that for 90 seconds, then 10 minutes of movie tunes followed by a closing minute of original score.

Feel like the best use case of intertwining movie tunes into a soundtrack/theme is Magic Happens. Hopefully they can pull it off.

And yet…the sun would have rose in the east tomorrow nonetheless

For you kids at home: this is what is going on. We are in a “desperation” period

They added some whizz bang for about 5 years…and now we’re a few years clear of that and it’s in stagnation

This used to happen…late Eisner and iger’s first 6 or so years.
So now really clawing for anything. The uber fans are looking for validation and not accepting the period.

Those that have made enough rotations around the sun know I’m right…so a reminder to hate the game, not the player.

A parade? Now merch for a parade. Incase you’re curious…That’s a “oh…they have that new parade…let’s watch it” type of thing. No buildup needed.

The 100 minute wait for the little mermaid show today?…everyone remember what happened there?

Just Check the scoreboard

Can you please stop being so rude and negative in every single thread? you really don’t have to to jump into every single thread and talk this way. We’re all getting really tired of it. we get it you don’t like what’s going on right now, but please God stop talking down to people that do.

I was hoping it was be a larger parade, like MSEP.

But it seems 9 floats is about what we will get these days.

Hit the button…
Problem solved

I never expect anyone to agree with me…which goes in hand with not expecting people to have the same perspective on things. Life is way easier if you accept those two things.

 

[Jedi14]

I feel like the preview of the soundtrack they showed is probably either the intro overture or the finale.

That shouldn’t be necessary

Nine floats is about average with most of modern parades.

This guy is about to see a boom in business.

"Parade packages, you talking to me?"

Best you can do is create a few topics about Bob and hope they act as voluntary pseudo-containment threads.

I need the shirt and pin

Can't wait to finally see the nighttime atmosphere of the Magic Kingdom to feel more alive again. It's been 35 years since WDW gained its own electrical parade.

Are you going to opening night?

 

[MisterPenguin]

Remember folks... beside the 'ignore' button, there's the 'report' button.

 

[SpectroBro]

You can’t help to wonder, if this parade was supposed to be part of the 50th at one point.

It was.

 

[jrhwdw]

That's because one of WDW's original plans for the resort's 50th Anniversary prior to COVID was creating a brand new electrical parade. It was the most discussed topic for the 50th Anniversary Thread.

I wonder if Starlight or anything else really was planned for D23 2020? Of course, we never got that far.....

 

[TTA94]

It was.

Was it always going to be Starlight and these same floats? or was there another idea at one point?

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

That shouldn’t be necessary

It never is…

I get darts thrown at me from the weeds unannounced all the time…no matter how well behaved I am.

I don’t call them out…just move on

But airing of past grievances always happens.

Here’s the cleaned up version: we’re back in a park malaise…and I’m more convinced than ever they are being propped up 100% by lightning lanes (Mostly unnecessary) and jockey tours

100% vanity…not quality product

The traffic is not there and falling.

Which puts it in such a precarious position where my hunch is we all lose.

But I’m a “hater”…as you can tell

EDIT: and oh look…one already came In from one that never actually makes a point…set your watch by it
