2nd Fantasmic will start in about 10 minutes

yess! best part.. fire inferno!!

I love the way the show looks from up high, really helps you appreciate the fountain design/color arrangement! It's beautiful.

That was great, I always miss it when i'm at the park so it was cool to actually see it happen "live" ;)

there it goes!

should be any minute now! the cadillac range lights are already on there goes Mater :)

That's a good one, although in the park you will hear 'Sh-boom' playing as the neon lights up (same as the movie!)

InsideUniversal.net posted an update today. It's fascinating to see the amount of work going on at the park, it reminds me of DCA during its big makeover phase. The cottages of Hogsmead are taking shape: Forbidden Journey show building: Springfield has grown quite a bit! A wide...

Yeah, it's hard to believe someone actually approved that original lighting. There's a weird orange/red tint that is cast on the figures and everything else just fades into the background and looks blah. The new UV light actually brings out details that were there all along but I had never even...

They closed the ride on March 30, so it was down for about 1 1/2 months. TouringPlans has an additional update with some comparison photos of the ride: http://blog.touringplans.com/2014/05/09/pictures-video-dcas-newly-refurbished-little-mermaid-ariels-undersea-adventure/#more-62136

Here it is, and it looks amazing! Huge improvement, it makes the room seem bigger as well. They also added a lot of new sea creatures in the first half of the ride. The colors really pop!

I'm a bit wary about making those comparisons this early.. Only because WoC is primarily a fountain show, and the Rivers of Light art seems to indicate a focus on mist screens and live performers, sans fountains.

The TikiMan has a write-up about the changes: http://www.tikimanpages.com/poly/news/item/201-polynesian-village-announcement He confirms that Trader Sam's east will be more a family friendly lounge than a bar.

This new show doesn't have any fountains so perhaps there were some issues there? If they mount the water screens on moving platforms perhaps they can pump in the water from an outside source.

It looks really good at night! The main show scene is stunning with the new AA figures, but it leaves me wanting more. At least one more show scene would've been great. The outdoor/coaster segments are just okay since there really isn't much to look at, and with no onboard audio it makes for...

It seems like the updates for DCA's ride will not be as extensive as previously rumored. This is what today's article on MiceChat states:

The "kitchen sink" sundae is sold at Clarabelle's inside California Adventure, here's the new menu: Unfortunately it replaced the red car trolley sundae that used to be served there , which was actually a nice Buena Vista St. souvenir and it was also theme-appropriate.. I guess they save...

Fwiw, CNN thinks it's one of the most "insane new roller coasters in the U.S." http://us.cnn.com/2014/04/21/travel/best-usa-new-roller-coasters

According to the NYTimes article, Hollywood's Springfield will be bigger than the one that exists in Orlando. I heard some of the buildings will be multi-level -- I guess that is how they will make up for the limited room they have in the Upper Lot. Here's a look at the concept art that was...
