I wonder if the show is visible from the International gateway bridge at Epcot while watching Luminous while both shows are on the same timetable.

Too bad, sugar puff. We could have been something.

The show is best viewed from the west side and from the opposite side of Saratoga all other angles are pretty lousy, but it’s still decent show

Yes
Needs more Television Animation representation aside from Lunella/Moon Girl and Launchpad McQuack getting some love

Maybe a King and a Scratch, then we’ll see a pleasant collection of properties represented which are more than enough

This looks quite amazing! Unfortunately, it's scheduled to do its final show on September 2nd and we are arriving on September 10th. Think there's any chance of it being extended?

Yeah, I'm a little confused as to why it's only scheduled to run for the summer. Why not make it a full-time offering?
Well after seeing the mass of humanity..... The main drag at Disney Springs was a sardine can of humans for a solid 30 minutes after the 9pm show AND so I loitered. Got to my car at 9:45ish and did not get out of the Orange Garage until 10:30. Phew!

I am sure they will get better at this and more then that this IS a holiday weekend.

But all that said I guess the temporary nature of this show is, due to this being more of a proof of concept then anything else.

I heard crowd control last night was terrible. I spoke with multiple guests today that said it was so crowded that they felt unsafe. I wonder how they can improve upon this.
