The projections on the Sleeping Beauty castle have been broken (or disabled) for over 5 days now. Was last seen working last Tuesday 5/20.

If this keeps up we're soon gonna have more days of WJ being broken than working since the show came back this year for the 70th.

This is bad show at this point, but there is a backup B-mode with some basic lights. Although the castle pretty much stays a blueish purple color in the finale...somewhat uninspiring..
At least there's 2 other spots to see the main complimentary projections along RoA and IASW.

Also the vertical comets (castle pyro) have been missing in the finale song for the past couple days..

Tonight's livestream, timestamped at pooh finale:

I know people will think I'm crazy but I prefer fireworks without the mainstreet and castle projections and just having a normal castle with fireworks. I find it way more relaxing and ambient than video playing everywhere.

You may be getting your wish soon! Last night, the projections on the right side of Main Street was completely off/broken, along with the castle.


Also kinda same for this show. I dislike the portal style projections with movie clips and rather have simpler projections that fits and stylized the castle, eg. HEA.
However I adore the pooh projections in WJ during the finale and everything after that, so I do miss that currently.

Thats why I was commenting on it, cause to me the projections not working is good show! It's all too scatter brain for me.

The pooh projections during the 60th on MS I remember liking as well in a trippy sort of way reminiscent of Pink Elephants and Hephelumps.

I was about to say that I was there last night and the castle projections were working fine, so not sure when it got fixed.

Having not consumed any media about the 70th for the most part, I was also pleasantly surprised to see they were sending both the Blue Fairy and Baymax out during WJ.

I've seen the original World of Color twice (quite far apart from each other: 2014 and 2022), and SOL, One, and Celebrate one time apiece.

I thought all were fine and relatively equivalent quality-wise for me other than Celebrate, which was trying to be Remember 2.0 while also doing the Disney+ Hot Entertainment Of The Moment Showcase thing before that was a regular occurrence (though I suppose some might argue that WOC has basically always been that anyway). To me, Celebrate didn't work.

I'm looking forward to Happiness in a vague sort of way, I guess, but I would have preferred Seasons of Light play in December when I'm returning then, given that I'll also be visiting during the summer when the 70th is in full swing (though technically the website says SOL's still playing this year with dates included, so I suppose maybe SOL isn't SOL? We shall see.)

I've come to the conclusion that I just don't really have strong opinions about or attachments to World of Color or Fantasmic, in any incarnation, honestly (other than that they need to just fix the dragon already). I'm happy they're there to provide others joy and soak up the crowds, but really, I much prefer the fireworks and night parades.

Why is Japan releasing Disneyland music? 🤔

Bringing the discussion back to this thread.
And Wondrous Journeys still missing castle projections. Paint the Night is the only offering working correctly 😢

The castle projections during Wondrous Journeys is broken again. Looks like since Father's Day on 6/15.
So we are past 11 days now, longer than the previous period in May when it was out for 10 days straight.

Father's Day 6/15:


Last night 6/25:


Also been noticing that the projections on RoA or IaSW also not work sometimes. Very random and just very bad show overall..

So my 16yo doesn’t remember DL (but we’re definitely Disney fans) and serendipitously we ended up scheduling his upcoming trip to be there 7/18. Is it likely that anything ends up happening that morning/day or do we think it’s just folded into the 70th? We’re from Texas and don’t generally travel/attend events so…🤷‍♂️
