One would hope!
That means that the walls and this whole refurb thing was just a cover up....something to distract us from what was really going on......while we were paying attention to the fountain I'll bet they turned SSE into a DVC kiosk.

Does anyone else remember that show in which Mickey fought of Aliens that were trying to steal the color from the fountain? The dinosaur head monster is sitting behind the Central Shops building on your way to Disney University/MK CM parking. I also remember after that show folded that they brought that guy behind a plant in front of Cosmic Ray's on the side that faces Fantasyland. That was very short-lived though.

The first show you're thinking of is Splashtacular which is documented wonderfully in Martin's two-part tribute to Communicore/Innoventions.
I can't help you with the second show, sorry.

When it was in the Magic Kingdom, it wasn't a show per se...it was just there almost as window dressing. Just doing some basic moves as guests would walk by. I thought Splashtacular was pretty good. (Not saying that I miss the days of Epcot '94, I am an EPCOT Center boy through-and-through)

Seriously...the walls went up when we were there beginning-mid January and now it's mid-late March...what could they possibly be doing?

They're building Beastly Kingdom, Star Tours 2.0, The Adventurers Club, and moving the second phase of Pop Century in there.

AND NO ONE TOLD ME?!?!
Hmm must be underground!
We wanted you to be surprised...(seriously though, I agree with you. It has been a long time. There better be some cool things coming with this fountain.)

I know...like Mickey himself with sparks and fireworks shooting out of his index fingers while eating a turkey leg.

There is water in it now....Just got a text from EPCOT.nut. Trying for some more info.
She says it's very pretty thus far.

I wonder if the water is going to have any more dances. The Rocketeer and Rescuers Down Under music tunes are great and right before it went down I remember hearing a Tokyo DisneySeas tune that I hadn't heard there before but I would like to see some new music there added to some of the great ones they already do.
