Yeah, it looks to be roughly the same angle as the live stream, which was from the Polynesian Village beach. The live stream was a wider shot and you could see the bungalows

In addition to the blog mickey live stream, it looks like they uploaded a higher quality video too

Brb. Crying.

Great watching that video. I'm sure we were told on here that fireworks would never return by somebody, glad they were wrong. Whilst we don't often stay to see them, it's nice knowing there's the option for guests to have a fantastic end to their day with fireworks.

Several people said they would not return until October because they don't need the draw. Obviously, such sort sighted 'wins' are not something Disney considers appealing.

You’re joking?!

You’re joking?!

I should clarify: obviously no one with any real information, just pessimists lol

most knew they would be back sooner

No I mean somebody (can't remember who & doesn't really matter who) said, "Fireworks will never return as people going without fireworks will convince Disney they aren't needed" or words to that affect.

While that is true, that people are showing up regardless of fireworks, the problem they fail to see is that guests are leaving the parks early. Nighttime entertainment is needed to keep guests in the parks and continue spending $$. They only see fireworks as a huge up-front cost to Disney while not seeing the indirect effects of fireworks.

True but I think people also fail to see that the negative effects of discontinuing such experiences aren't immediately felt. The company knows what sets them apart from the "competition."

I'm pretty sure some people said that all the fireworks in the world were being dumped into the Marianas Trench and there would never be fireworks again, which is sorta OK since were all going to get masks surgically attached to our whole face.

I guess this shows them!!

Wasn't 10/1 in question for a little while??? Obviously not anymore thanks to the last 2 weeks.

 

[Bullseye1967]

Saw on Twitter that that the 28th is still a rumored test night before Cast Night on the 29th? True?

MK will not be a "full test run" on the 28th.

OK then. If there's nothing to see I won't look. LOL!

 

[jrhwdw]

I'm surprised DPB hasn't announced a July Stream yet. Is that still in the works???

What do they need a stream for? They aren't debuting anything new.

That hasn't stopped them before.
