Eh.. It's showing it's age. Quite a few effects are starting to become degraded versions of their past quality and some have just stopped altogether. Seeing how great the refurbishments have been for other attractions, I'd say PM would more than benefit from it.

The RR station, BTMRR, the riverbend, restrooms, the Lucky Nugget, Silver Spur, sidewalk pavement, entrance fort, they've refurbed just about every other thing in Frontierland. Might as well do PM while they're at it.

Sound promising! The official press release also states that extra surprises and features will be announced in the future.

I'm wondering though why they have chosen for 'Disney Illuminations' to replace Disney Dreams, while there is already an Illuminations show running at Epcot at WDW. Also the name for the new parade is not really exciting. We are moving from Magic on Parade to Disney Stars on Parade. I would have loved a more fancy/magical name, like Festival of Fantasy/Once Upon A Dream/Storybook Express, without the '-on Parade' tag. Besides that, I hope that the music for the new parade contains individual music pieces for each float, instead of one song playing over and over again.

Edit:
The copy of a 'spectacular float from WDW' that will be in the Disney Stars on Parade, is confirmed to be the Maleficent/Dragon float by this image from DLP:

I don't believe we'll see any changes. When it was rumoured for the changes it was down for 8 months.

Probably just a temporary stop gap - I don't think the attraction will be around for too long, but 4 months is a long time so would expect some enhancements/improvements.

Can't wait for concept art.

This year's Christmas parade will include two new floats, one with Max & Goofy and the other with the Three Little Pigs.

There's also a new commercial that for once is all done with footage filmed at DLP:

Unreal how good they managed to make those Hollywood cut-outs look. :D

The Three Little Piges are terrific! I don't really get giddy about characters, but these are one of the few I actually am excited about. :geek:

I wish WDW had a commercial that interesting besides using the word "Magic"
