This premiered last week. I'll try and take some photos after work tonight or tomorrow.
I see Disney updated their calendar (Disneyworld.com) for early November yesterday and added a bunch of Fantasmic! shows. I am going the 6th - 15th and instead of just 2 shows I now see about 7-9. Many nights picked up an additional show at 8:00pm along with the scheduled 6:30 showing.
Do not get me wrong, I like HS. However, it is the most boring park to me. There is no DISNEY magic. I feel like when I am at HS, I am in Pixar or Disney Channel Studios. It bothers me that the main Disney characters are NO WHERE. On NON Fantasmic days, I never see Mickey and gang unless you do a character greeting. I also HATE High School Muscial. And the Pixar Parade is TERRIBLE - BEYOND TERRIBLE. Im sure little kids enjoy it but it has no Disney magic. It seems like something that would be at Universal. There are NO DISNEY CHARCTERS in the parade (Mickey and Gang). I like the rides but HS needs to HUGE UPDATE. I spend about 4 hours at HS and I am done.
:ROFLOL:I dont know why,but that made me laugh SO hard!:lol:*waits for EpcotServo*
:king::lookaroun
Yes! Kill it with fire.
I love HSM3, I get to walk past all the twitter happy tweens and get in line for other attractions without them.

Also, they have ruined the Back Lot Tour. I enjoyed it with Residental Street then when they tore that down, I still enjoyed it. But the Back Lot Tour is nothing more than just a tram ride through the back of the studios. BORING. And the pre taped speech is HORRIBLE. I always enjoyed the tram ride driver making jokes.
Do not get my started on Fantasmic. The reduction in the show is terrible. It has been a year, I have gotten used to it but at the end of the day it sucks.
Finally, American Idol is a JOKE. While I give kudos to the attraction - it is similiar to TV. It is something that belongs at Universal Studios. Little Kids would rather wait in line and see Fantasmic vs. waiting in line and watching people perform whom may or may not be good.
Sorry for the rant but it is just my personal feelings.

I know I wait for the evening, and this is just a observation, but walk into the Emporium an hour after Rope Drop? PACKED. :shrug::lol: Worse than the crowds at closing, IMHO.Thanks for the update, Drew.
It's amazing they can cut Fantasmic drastically and close the park so early (even in peak summer seasons) and then wonder why their in-park spending is down drastically. What did they think? That people did all their spending in the mornings?
The one morsel you mentioned that I really hope happens would be the return of the WDW Easter Parade. It was a wonderful tradition that was killed for money reasons. I wonder if Michael O'Grattan has his hand in that ... or even Fantasmic too.
Will Tiana and gang be out for Meet and Greets or just the show?
HSM isn't leaving anytime soon...sorry! And if you think that this is the end of the HSM franchise then I'd recommend googling up some info on HSM 4, which begins filming soon.
If it's not your cup of tea, don't stand to watch. If you're not the demographic, then it doesn't really matter - does it?

:brick: I thought the brats graduated?:lookarounHSM3 will close sometime next year because a new HSM film will be released. At that point, the show will just change over to the new film, like it has twice now.
