SSE hasn't been in good condition since 2007, when like Nemo, *its* budget was slashed and its finale reduced to flash animation.
Agree, SSE was actually fine for the most part before they nuked it into this current version that were now left with for who knows how much longer. Though its limping, it can't go on much longer without some serious work. They are going to have no choice pretty soon whether they like it or not, and of course we know they don't like having to lift a finger to do anything necessary. They only seem to do what's unnecessary.

To be fair, I don't think drones were ever going to work, and I'd argue that they would be counterintuitive to a proper Lagoon show. WSL is staged as a rich canvas to expand upon, not overpower.

Music is going to be the kicker here, and I think they recognize that. "Original composition" seems to be an indicator that this can't just be another "Disney Concert". In fact, I'd be surprised if this show was lyrically heavy.

I think there's an inclination to make this more of a simplistic IllumiNations-style show, amplifying the remaining infrastructure and effects around the Lagoon. So, something like culturally-inspired orchestral Disney songs while the respective country lights up is what would serve as a slam dunk, especially if the "original composition" ties it together.

Here's to hoping they ask Pinar to put in just a bit more work and deliver a score. She's really bailed them out with the acoustics of this project, especially with the new BGM she's composed.
That's what I would love to see and would serve them best, but Im not sure they have the knowledge to carry that out . By knowledge, I mean of how previous shows worked, its like they dont even know they already have a canvas to work with but will see. Like others have said its been sounding like more cobbling together again, I really hope not in the end.

And it's completely unsweetened.
Can it vomit color yet offer no complexity?

Have they released the dates and cost for the "Dismantle Harmonius Barges" hard-ticket events yet?

They better hurry up.
I want to be there when they rip those things to pieces as fast as they dismantled the RoE ‘globe’.

Hard ticket event i hear will be $575 per ticket, backstage viewing in a small roped off area next to the barge marina.
Clear views of the killing field where the carnage will take place before Park opening.
First however, Guests at said hard ticket event will have the exclusive opportunity to cheer as the ‘burnt tacos’ are motored through the bridge to their deaths.
Light refreshments will be served afterwards.


I would not be the only one that would probably pay to see that.

Do “light refreshments” include drinking chocolate? Asking for a friend.

A select number of VIP tickets will be sold that allow the guest to beat on the barge with a baseball bat ala the guys in Office Space to the printer

I’m thinking popcorn buckets made from the taco scraps along with a celebration cupcake of course
