These marketing campaigns never seize to amaze me. I’m actually excited for these changes. I visit WDW at least once a year and it seems like the entertainment never changes. I’ve been watching the Share a Dream Come True parade since 2001. I was very excited to see it updated for the Year of a Million Dreams. I was also happy to see Dream Along With Mickey replace Cinderellabration. The only thing I like about these marketing campaigns is that the entertainment gets a fresh coat of paint. Here are my theories of what we’ll see in 2009:
The Dreams Come True Parade
- It will probably be updated with a new soundtrack (something else for me to look for), and a few new decorations added to the floats. It will be called something lame like the “Disney’s Magical Celebrations Parade” where you can watch your favorite Disney characters live out their celebrations. Mickey will have new audio where he celebrates something, Pinocchio will celebrate being a real boy, Aladdin will celebrate something, the wicked Queen will celebrate her power, Peter Pan will celebrate something, and the princesses will celebrate their dreams coming true. I’m sure Mickey and Co. will also receive new outfits with a new color scheme.
The New Castle Stage Show
- I love Dream Along with Mickey. I think it’s a great show and it includes Disney’s most popular franchises. The new show, if we do get a new show, will probably be called “Mickey’s Magical Celebration”. In the vein of Dream Along and Cinderella’s Surprise Celebration, Mickey and friends are having a get together to celebrate something magical, a few princesses come, maybe Hannah Montana makes an appearance (jk), and then a Villain shows up to ruin the celebration. However, Mickey with the help of the audience proves that celebrations are indeed truly magical and the villain is defeated. Everyone sings about it and the show ends.
These are just my theories. They are NOT rumors, and they are not fact. They are my theories based on what I have read in this thread, so please don’t flame me.
