Enchantment feels like a holiday party firework show effort. And that's perfectly fine! But not for a permanent show. HEA looks like it was years in the making whether it was or not.

Toy Story scenes compared. I don't know how anyone can look at these and say people are complaining because "it's new."

My last comparison (I promise) but this is the most heartbreaking comparison: the reprise we have now vs what we used to have. How is this giant step backwards acceptable?
Night and Day difference. Amazing!

Bad camera work

Uh, there is no camera on Earth that is going to make the reprise in Disney Enchantment (or any of the scenes posted) anything close to what it was in HEA.

I have watched Enchantment from every angle. I have seen some good things, some bad. I have a theory. I think the reason they decided to focus on only new(er) films is because they already had promotional/stock animation (like the kind used in commercials and trailers) of characters like Moana, Luca, Frozen, Soul, etc. and this way they did not have to reanimate anything or do any custom animation thus saving money. It's a good theory if I do say so myself.....

That kinda makes sense. If we recall back to HEA, they made it a big point of how they grabbed all these classic animators to redraw/reanimate their characters.
But was such thing done for DE, that’s the question. I don’t think any of the projections resembles hand drawn classic animation.
It's a fair question. DE looks more like stock images pasted onto the castle.

I remember them showing them animating Ursula and all that stuff. Nothing this time around. All the images are the same ones we've seen of like Maui swinging his hook and becoming a hawk, etc.

If i don't wrong, the "wrong pitch" score of Into the Unknown bears similarities to those who performed at Academy Awards 2020, but it was sung in multi languages not just English.

Jordan Fisher uploaded a farewell video to Happily Ever After on YouTube a few days ago, saying “on the final night of our show…”
Not suggesting he knows anything more than any of us on the topic, just that I hope he’s wrong. Anyway it was nice to watch and it must feel really nice to be a part of the best nighttime show the park has had. Hopefully April 1st 2023 will be a glorious day.

The Magic Kingdom fireworks shows through the decades (I started watching them in the mid 1980's as I'm sure many of you have) became my favorite experience at the park. The breathtaking beauty combined with the orchestral medleys of classic Disney songs made an impact on an emotional and heartfelt level. This new show in particular leaves me sad and longing for the artistic quality that once was. Particularly for this 50th anniversary, it was a chance to include more classic Disney music and Park themes unique to Walt Disney World. This is like some badly produced pop song commercial thrown together without much inspiration or respect for the great legacy in my opinion.
I'd like to add something about the projections as well that I know won't be a popular opinion, but I'm not a fan of them. Cinderella Castle is such a gorgeous structure. The subtle lighting and changing colors showcased it to its best during the firework shows. I know the projections are fun and exciting and have their place, I just miss the classic look of "Wishes" and "Fantasy in the Sky". They were stunning.
With my tastes going back to the classic formats aside, I still think this show was lacking in overall concept and music. This is seriously what we were given for the 50th of this great kingdom that has meant so much to us for decades? What happened?

She added to it last night.
Since Disneyland has Walt & Mickey in their projections, she felt that WDW needed to add something for its own park history -
Have Roy and Minnie walk towards each other and then sit on their bench.
Walt and Mickey could look down at them smiling.
They could wave at each other.
