New Illuminations and MK Parade?

I know a couple years ago there were rumors about a new parade to replace Spectro and a new fireworks show to replace Illuminations that never happened. But will there be?

As much as I love both shows...they are getting pretty old.

The last I heard Spectro should return looking better than ever (and potentially somewhat different here and there)

IllumiNations: Skydance was scrapped from what I was told, but elements of it and WOC should be introduced to plus ROE, possibly starting as early as Q1 2011.

I am hoping the spectro rumor is true because spectro is way better parade than msep imo. I am also hoping that they will update illuminations since it is really in need of an upgrade.
Also did you hear anything about when spectro will come back.

I hope they never replace ROE. Its a work of art. Just plus it with WoC or BraviSEAmo type of water effects during the middle section of the show.

I agree IlluiNations is getting VERY old. The show needs a refurb for sure. SpectroMagic could use a good upgrade as well, though I'm one of those who thinks Main Street Electrical Parade is the vastly superior parade, especially with the new LED lights.
I am sorry, I love Spectro BUT imho MSEP is the better parade....
Darn right.
Since I've never seen MSEP, it IS a new parade for me! Now, if I can just get back to WDW to see it before it leaves!:lol:
It's worth the trip. Go see it! Best parade in the world.

Does anyone know when or if MSEP is leaving?
Rumor says late 2011 or 2012.

I would love for ROE to have WOC touches. That would be awesome. I bet it would have character tie-ins. That would be okay with me though as longs as it didn't overdo it.
 

Crush Dude!

Back from WDW!Counting down to DLP in November!

They could project updated images similar to what appear on the spinning globe on WOC type water screens at several different points around the lagoon. Maybe they could even put smaller screens in front of each country and images from that country would be projected onto their respective screens? I would love to see them plus the show, and I know it would cost a lot of money, but adding more water effects, and maybe even effects we've never seen before would give the show something new and exciting!
