I've heard that Spectro is coming back this summer after MSEP goes back to DCA after Carsland and Buena Vista Street opens.. I'm stuck on this rumor because that's the one that says Spectro is coming back the soonest :)

I LOVE Spectro -- favorite parade! I'd be fine with a refurb (DEFINITELY a touch-up), but please no change to the soundtrack!

Hmm, well Martin have you heard about any visible changes to the floats? Music changes? Anything? I am thinking, sadly, no :-(.

I have to say It does seems a little strange why they would want to go back to a parade that is not updated with LEDs, requires more performers I think, and will all in all cost more to run. Like what advantage is it giving them by bringing Spectro back? Unless they have no choice?
The work I hear about was electrical. Spector could be used as a counter to the new USF show. Many normal guests would probably think it is a new parade anyway.

The same way some guests thought MSEP was new when it came back in 2010. I haerd so many people said "oh wow, this is new!" or "I don't remember this music/float/announcement" when it started. :hammer: HA! Disney sure knows how to keep people guessing... :rolleyes:

I'm not so sure FantIllusion would fare well at WDW. It's essentially Fantasmic! in parade form. I'd like to see it...but not when I can go see the bigger and, in my opinion, better "Fantasmic!" at DHS.

And yes, it still runs at DLP.

Sadly you are correct lol. Although Spectro has been around for a looong time. But gee I wish we would see Some noticable changes :-( Unless the electrical work you speak of was on a much larger scale like adding LEDs... I don't think you meant that type of electrical work though lol

Im still wondering about the music... Disney it notorious for changing music lol. Especially to claim something as being "new" and a "new experiance".

Yeah, like when they boasted that the new Main Street Electrical Parade music was "new and enhanced" despite the fact that that version has been around since 2001 at Tokyo Disneyland :confused:

I dont understand the hate for MSEP and the love for Spectro...MSEP is more fun IMO and is classic while Spectro is just boring...like really boring

What happened to Fantillusion? Is that still running in Paris?

Certainly is. Can't wait to see it this summer again :D

It's nice to see where MSEP and Spectro led tech-wise. I can't see however a link to Fantasmic. Apart from both begin with an F :)
 

Crush Dude!

TDL does have another that WDW could potentially reuse lol... Nightfall Glow. Not exactly sure how they would replace the "Night Fall Glow" lyrics threw out the soundtrack however, but the exit music lyrics could easily be changed.

I would actually not be against this at all. It is really pretty, flowy, calming. They could do worse lol.

Oh man, does that look tacky! I hate it! Haha! I'll take anything over that!! Heh heh heh.


They could also use Light Magic,,,hahah I know its a thorn in Disneyland's side to many, but love the soundtrack!!

I'm pretty sure there would be riots in the street if they brought back Light Magic.
