Since you brought Temu up, I took a peek. And what they have is ALSO much better looking than Starlight. 🤣

Well, it's time to be mean again... While these are cheapo garbage quality that won't hold up past the first couple of uses, there are kid's wearable butterfly wings on Amazon that cost less than $30 that still look far better than Starlight's. I am not exaggerating... And before you say...

For fun, I made this little timeline collage of the butterfly costumes from past light parades. From left to right it's MSEP 1972, Spectromagic, Fantillusion, and Dreamlights 2001- They're all really pretty in their own way, ranging from good to excellent. Even that ancient 1972 one still...

Originally yes during its early years. Though later on they would sometimes put it before Mickey. There are 2000s era videos of this. Probably the size yeah. It's extremely small even by the standards of traditional "filler" floats, not even motorized AFAIK as the cast members seem to be...

I think they probably prefer "anything can save money if you cut it".

FoF is over a decade old now, so things may have further changed since. There's also the dragon float in FoF, but I'm not sure it fully counts. I assume Maleficent is supposed to be dead, and the dragon is a mechanical replica of her. Not really complaining about it since it's a cool float, but...

Eh, technically kinda-ish. The problem is that they used her Frozen 2 design (the song attached to her float is also from the sequel). That design far more bland and forgettable than the one from the first movie. The braid and blue dress in Frozen 1 are much more iconic, the design most people...

It looks like the twinkling lights in the upper parts of their costumes are what illuminates their faces. So it's inconsistent and relies on the position of their head as well as those particular upper lights activating. That's why still photos show them lit up while others don't. At least...

I wouldn't say it feels particularly similar to Spectro, unless you consider any "classical" sounding music to be Spectro style. If anything, blue fairy, train and the borrowed music cues scream MSEP lineage. The idea that Starlight is even remotely in the same universe of quality as Spectro is...

There are some other Disney attractions in the world that have somewhat brightly lit environments in that same vein. And there used to be a larger amount at WDW years back. Several of the old EPCOT Future World classics did, and Great Movie Ride with some scenes. One attraction that has some...

I've been very clear throughout my time on this forum that I highly dislike Paint the Night. I find its music obnoxious and inappropriate for a castle park parade, it's short, the float designs are mostly poor (with a couple exceptions), and I detest its very straight-lined modern grid patterns...

How did you get any of this out of that post? They said the exact opposite. The only real similarity with the previous ride is that they reused the same building and track layout. The reason why that's an issue is because TBA does not work with this layout. A more talented team probably could...

No, I do not like the "vision" for the costumes at all. And I vehemently disagree that they match the rest of the floats and theme of the parade. To be very blunt, I would not use the word "creative" in a sentence with them. I'm sorry if that seems harsh, but it's the truth and I say this as...

The low quantity of performers is disappointing, but not surprising. It is the terrible quality of the costumes that is surprising. Yes it needs more people out there as well, but more than anything they need to go back to the drawing board with the wardrobe.

List of critiques I have thus far (long post ahead)- 1- Fix the street performers. I've already gone into detail about what is needed. Their outfits are ugly and there's not enough. Unacceptable, back to the drawing board now. 2- The Frozen and Wish floats need work. I won't debate whether...

Some of things he pointed out aren't what I have a problem with. It's the blocky bits of ice they project video onto that looks bad. Frozen is one of one two floats in PtN that I actually like (along with Beauty and the Beast). And yes PtN's Frozen float is better (though neither are as good as...

People complaining about the Wish float, but honestly it's not that bad. Frozen is worse. That's the worst Frozen float i've seen in a night parade so far. Though not for the reasons that ThemeparkObsession is saying. It's the ice pattern (with video projection) on top of the float that I think...

The idea that you can't have a lot of dancers with a score like this is absurd. Spectro had a ton of street performers. The soundtrack was literally a waltz, designed to be danced to. Starlight's music is sort of a halfway point between MSEP and Spectro, with more of a fast beat than the latter...

While not quite as flamboyantly crazy as the ones from PtN, Dreamlights has also had very elegant costumes for decades. I don't know if they have the same supposed discomfort or maintenance issues (OLC doesn't follow the same sort of managereal cheapness as TWDC). But still, i'm sure something...

I agree. I think it's a solid parade float wise (and I like the music), though I do have further critical thoughts. But they REALLY botched the costumes for the street performers. Shockingly poor. For as much as I despise most of Paint the Night (and stand by that opinion 100%), i've always...
