Obsolete technology. Plus, there was a pre-holiday sale at Wal*Mart on fancy pants Christmas lights.Way to go WDW... you upgrade F! at about 1/5 the rate of Disneyland.. and you give out about 1/5th less hats. Seems about right...
Does anyone know why the boats finally got upgraded? Forced because they could no longer maintain the old ones?

There was actually two shows tonight, one more than what was planned. As for tomorrow, there will be one show at 7:30 PM.

I don't ever see myself shelling out $25 for them (sorry if I missed it, IS that the price?) but I admit in the video it wasn't as awful as a I thought it would be. It added to the experience, HOWEVER, that was a video. In person it could be a different, more annoying in-your-face, experience. That's of course if everyone wears them, which I seriously doubt unless WDW just keeps giving them out. And that's not going to happen.

Not sure why all the hate for the Pocahontas. Just watched the video posted on here and I liked it. Just my 2 cents.

I agree. I've always liked the Pocahontas segment. Perhaps they could add a bit more to it so all of the action doesn't seem so far away, but I really have no problem with it. Plus the transition from the Pocahontas music to the Princess Segment music is perfect.

Totally agree about the music transition...flows really well. They should bring the fighting into the crowd. It would be exciting to see them fighting on the stairs. Well maybe that's not a good idea, I can picture some child getting into the middle of a mock fight. Sounded good at first.

Agree always enjoyed it and thought it unique to our Fantasmic, and its the only thing left where shes represented since they cut her show at AK and cut her song/snippet out of the magic kingdom railroad spiel. She really ought to be somewhere permanent at AK or Frontierland.

I don't get the hate either. The Pocahontas canoe/action sequence is one of the only really coherent parts of the show.
If anything, the rest of the show should be more like it.
Oh man, that was the worst.
It was so loud too.

I love the Pocahontas segment too but in all honesty if there wasn't the Peter Pan segment from DL's Fantasmic for it to be constantly compared to, I think more people wouldn't dislike it as much. The Peter Pan segment on the Columbia is pretty awesome though, I'm a huge Pocahontas fan and I found myself still liking the Peter Pan segment more than Pocahontas.
