Then you were responding to the wrong post because I was never discussing show or themeing. You quoted my post which was entirely about the visibility during the show.

I hope they announce the new hours and times for the night time show soon! We are also going the end of April. I heard they might be offering the dinner show package, like they do at Fantasmic! so I've been keeping my eyes open!
Yes. And in many of the props around the lagoon, like the beached boat props at Mexico or the Gondolas at Italy.

I know i'm not the first to say this, but as much as I am looking forward to this show, I'm getting very frustrated with WDW management for keeping such a wrap on releasing the details of any FP or dining package info and we are just about 1 month away from the opening. And the crazy part, is that it doesn't even effect me...I won't be there until August.
But, It just is a rub where the company expects us to make our dining 180 out and FP's 60 out and here we are with people wondering how they are going to have to alter their plans and risk throwing days plans into the crapper if they can't get a FP for their planned AK day/days.
we are 30 days away, this info should have been planned and released by now!!

I'm sure it's planned just not released yet. My guess is that they are waiting for the 30 day mark to release it so that it opens to everyone at the same time as opposed to giving resort guests a 30 day head start.

Or RoL may open with no FPs and dining reservations at all. There was a rumor of those starting May 1st. I'm thinking that will probably be the case as Disney will not want MDE to crash on Tuesday and be dealing with complaints.

Also possible. Although I think the system will probably crash regardless of when they become available. April 22 or may 1st the demand will still most likely overwhelm the system.
I think they really should just offer fastpass for the show seperate from Fastpass+. Similar to World of Color.

Small update from the blog. Sounds like we might be hearing more about the ToL awakenings soon.

Looks like the people in the comments are just as frustrated with the lack of FP info as the people here.

Or Disney could try something smart and open the reservations in a rolling update. People within 30 days have exclusive time to reserve for one week. Then the next week it opens to those 60 days out. And so on and so forth until it's expanded out to the 180 days as expected. But that would require someone to think for a change about IT stuff. And by the way this system crashes when you breathe, that obviously doesn't happen.

Even just park hours and showtimes would be a start so you can plan dining around it. They may not offer FPs immediately anyway.

OMG - people will have to stand in line for a new attraction????? People who can't afford the dining packages will actually be standing in line with those who can???? People may actually have their minute by minute plans perturbed???? What is WDW coming to?

You know you are being ridiculous.
I see your point. HOWEVER, Park Hours along with ROL & TOL Twilight(if that's even going in the Times Guide) Times is a different story. How long before FOF's Opening Date was the date announced and Times put online? Granted, we all had a good guess on what time FOF would be, but WDW still had to put it online.
For those like me who stay offsite, or go to tourist centers around the area, when does the current Times & Information brochure expire? The next one may or may not give us ROL times but it would have to have AK's new hours I would think!

Do you always intentionally miss the point. Because it seems so. Do you need me to go back and quote the various posts in question and show you where you apparently misunderstood.

Dogs and cats living together!!!
my 'frustration' has noting to of with any of those, but thanks. More to the ecosystem Disney built for itself where we are forced to play by the 180/60 day benchmarks they set for us, yet not a peep out of them close to 30 days out of opening when they know so many people are waiting to see this.
Could they not offer FP or a package for this show....yea. Will they...not a chance. So yes, it will disturb peoples minute by minute plans b/c Disney made us make minute by minute plans. Trust me, I would love for FP+ to go away. I had no issue with the old FP system and yes, remember when there was no FP's. I remember going up to the TV screens in Epcot and making ADRs for that day.
So yes, there was a time when the masses all waited together....but Disney changed that on us. And you can make the argument that I don't need to be a slave to that system, but I guess we can debate that as we listen to RoL from outside the theater b/c there is no way all 5K of those seats will be claimed in advance.

I wouldn't mind as much if these were out during the day compared to the Illuminations barges.

And apparently you think the conversation is solely about you.
Last time I seen, this thread had like 30 people actively conversing. Not only YOUR point.
Now I understand why so many people have you on ignore.
*edit*
the hilarity is, I started talking about the bubble fantasmic globes even before YOU started talking about them. My first comment about them was back in page 142 talking to @ChristianG 's photo about the first Towered bubble fantasmic globes.
And the first posts about the permanently visibly globes were way back near page 137.
Page #148 is where I talked more directly with another person who thinks the same.
Asia side = very well hidden. Dinoland = not hidden,always visible.
