[MorphinePrince]

ok good, I'm not crazy then. I was at the Poly doin my normal "waving of the hands to direct the fireworks" bit and was totally thrown off lol

Omg, glad to know I'm not the only one who does this when I watch HEA

Weird random question, but does anyone have a map of where all the perimeter launch points around world showcase lagoon are?

I ask this because I’m taking my sister to WDW in august and she loves jump scares, so I figured I’d find a spot right next to where they launch those surprise perimeter fireworks lol

The majority are easy to spot.

My favorite places to get "scared" by the perimeters are near to the outdoor kiosks to the left of La Hacienda in Mexico and on either side of the America Gardens Theatre (if I recall correctly). I believe there is a good spot in the UK pavilion as well, but it may be in the handicap viewing area.

I appreciate the tips!

However The Castle went July 4th colors after HEA just like a normal July 3rd! LOL!

It's on Twitter/YT

I did not realize how much I actually missed fireworks until I watched HEA tonight. Welcome back!

 

[gerarar]

Imagine they surprised the guests with perimeters tonight for HEA.

One can imagine.

I really missed the lazers today. Are they waiting on FAA clearance to restart?

I wouldn't say pyro issues but they cut a significant amount of fireworks in the castle and the roofs beside it. Like at the finale the really bright one that shoots up is gone and there are usually four sets of Rainbow Brite shooting up but now it's only three sets.

Try it again in a few weeks and if they’re still missing it’s a cut.

You have it wrong. When the show debuted there were 4 sets, but that was reduced to 3 sets a couple months later.

Now, as seen before the closure in March 2020, there were only 3 sets.

And now here’s when it returned, which still shows 3 sets.

What is missing from this last part is the big bright white ones (like you said), the fanning rainbow ones, and also some white ones on the very last dun-dun-dun.

You are absolutely correct that a ton of castle
Pyro is still missing… but as I have an embarrassing knowledge of the show from the countless videos I’ve watched, here’s the issues I found:


2:14-2:20 - wrong shells, instead of all gold bursts we have some of the gold rocket used during “you can fly”.

4:21-4:28 - Hunchback Red fans wrong direction on castle left.

9:58 - “Love is an open door” fans are meant to fire in same direction across the castle, then back the other way - wrong direction fired.

17:17-17:29 - The golden bursts that were replaced by single golden rockets at the beginning are now here, replacing the rockets used by mistake. So it seems someone put the wrong shells in the wrong mortars.
