One theory on why they wouldn't do that at WDW is it helps keep all the other night-time shows different. Illuminations & Fantasmic use a lot of fountains, plus the new Rivers of Light at AK will too. Adding lasers and fountains at MK, in my opinion, means Illuminations is no longer as different.

Be careful what you wish for. Personally, I prefer to keep a show that still provides a decent view outside of Main Street and I would miss the high level pyro that would largely go away.i wish they could have that beautiful nighttime show that DLP does with the fountains and all!

They really missed their chance to install fountains when the moat was rained last year as the Hub refurb started. :-/

It's easy enough to drain again.

The story goes... The Paris nighttime show was actually designed and proposed for WDW...But TDO did not want to spend the money to improve the infrastructure for it....and it instead went to Paris...i wish they could have that beautiful nighttime show that DLP does with the fountains and all!
Maybe they regret that and are finally going to do a similar show...we could only hope.

That it is, but two birds with one stone, eh?

Yes. Unfortunately, Disney's ability to commit to something these days is about as strong as that of the average 21-year old male.

Disney has some epic keggers in his dorm room, though.

I've always thought Wishes should have been replaced a good 5 years ago. The Summer Nightastic fireworks (essentially the old Pirate/Princess party pyro) showed how out of date and "weak" Wishes was and still is.
Whatever the new show becomes, can it at least utilize the castle projectors properly? Still can't believe that 4 or 5 years after being installed, projections STILL have yet to be integrated into any of the MK fireworks shows. That's just sheer laziness/cheapness on Disney's part.

Agreed in full, though it's not cheapness... it's capacity. Disney wants people in the Hub during all parts of the night because the park is too crowded.
So, cheap and lazy in the way of not expanding capacity, but it has a reason for guest ops.

No reason the projection show couldn't still run. Im talking about using the projectors for something like the stars of the Sorcerer's Hat, or the mirror during the villains section - use the clear, full color projectors instead of the fuzzy, dim gobo projections.
It would also allow for better effects to be added, like projecting lightning bolts for the "thunderbolt" sequence rather then using the barely noticeable strobes.

Gobos were very popular in 2003. I'm sure any new show would use the park's new projection system.

Ahh, gotcha. Yes, that would be preferable.
Also preferable, using actual projections in Wishes and not running Celebrate the Annoyance 348957 times a night.
