I LOVE IT! ITS PERFECT! Finally a parade that deserves to be in the Magic Kingdom.

I can't wait to hear a clearer version of the music. The crowds were so excited it was hard to hear at some points.

Well if you tune into the livestream right now, you'll see them doing just that!
(Just kidding..)

I think the Ravens and creatures fighting with Prince Phillip are scarier then then dragon.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! Loved the Ben-Hur style fanfare at the beginning but when I saw the Mime-Thug leading the way in front of the Tangled float, I almost fell out of my chair! The dragon was, of course, the best part. Loved the fire effects and having Phillip out front in a mock battle was an especially dramatic effect. Bravo!

We just lost a whole section of the parade!
That was my favorite part of the parade, Prince Phillip and the birds fighting. Nice choreography and amazing costumes.

After all the great movement in the Tangled Float, I speculate if this float will just have a different type of movement pattern and not be consistently swinging.

Twitter and Instagram is just lighting up with rave reviews from virtually everyone. Magic Kingdom has a phenomenon on their hands.

Wow a great parade...and this is from watching the Livestream! Can't wait to see it person. Btw the complainers have already begun on twitter "the floats are too tall/too big" " little ones can't see Peter Pan and Wendy" "too much going on" ugh
You can't please all of Dis-Fandom.

I just finished watching two different streams from two different angles and I hate to be the first person to admit it, but I thought it was just OK. While I admit it is a blessing seeing any new parade travel down the streets of the Magic Kingdom, it just didn't connect with me. First off, the music, to me wasn't as gripping or catchy as something like Tapestry of Nations, Jammin' Jungle, Spectromagic or even the 25th Anniversary Parade. Also, I thought it was funny that every time I was impressed by something, it ended up being one of the supporting cast ex. the mime, the crows, the seahorses, Dopey and Sneezy etc. Maybe they should have put more money into the cast rather then the floats (the ones that are actually original that is). I'm also glad I wasn't the only one to see Captain Hook on that anchor and think "Why didn't they make that swing as well". As far as the dragon goes, I do agree that, that was the best of them all but I couldn't help but think as I was watching how cool would it have been if the head and neck could move around more and hover over the guests like it was going to attack them. I know these are all just nitpicks and that overall the parade will be quite popular, but I don't see myself fighting large crowds or using FP+ to catch this parade in the future. Finally, I know we had that amazing dragon, but no love for the other villains? Just sayin'.
