18 mins was short?

Guess I enjoyed it so much I didn't want it to end lol.

I figured it was that! Sometimes it's good to leave people wanting more, like your favourite song that fades out at the end but you keep turning up the volume to try and stop it from ending.

Saw it tonight! I really enjoyed it! There are definitely some things that could be improved on. I feel the show was a little short and the large lotus could use some more effects, But overall much better than Jungle Book and I look forward to seeing the final version when it officially opens!

Iluminations was shorter

Gosh I hope they don't pick Pearl Harbor day. I mean, sinking floats and all..

Rethink that as much of pandoras outside is bioluminescent making it an entire different atmosphere during the evening.

Photo of that very concept albeit from the outside. If it looks this magical from across I wonder how it looks like inside?

It was just a little joshing about everyone guessing. Though I could see it being in roughly two and a half weeks

oncept is generally way overblown from what is finally built...I would not expect any of the Star Wars Land or Pandora to actually look and feel like the concept art....there will be similar architecture, but the sense of staging and scale will be way off.
Now I am a huge fan of "World Of Color", but really it doesn't look a thing like it's concept art...

yes there are fountains and pyro, but it sort of ends there.

okay. Just like "a bus driver told me" joke. I'll be there this Sunday but it probably wont be ready to go by then. It did sound like last night was a better run through then Sunday.

Actually.. WOC concept looks more to me like Tokyo DisneySea's Fantasmic! does... Same sorcerer hat and everything.

This made me laugh and groan at the same time.

It wasn't a very pleasant noise.

Reminds me a bit of Tokyo Disneysea

The domes were in the show too, but they don't use them anymore.

Well, per the FAA clearance, Disney only is allowed to fly the Drones over large bodies of water. So if they are to use drones at either MK or DHS, the only place they can be used is over Rivers of America or in Fantasmic, respectively. I can see Fantasmic maybe adding drones, but not RoA.

I thought I read somewhere it just had to be a distance of one hundred feet from spectators. Didn't someone also draw a map of possible drone route for Disneyland with the I go available on where they can fly them?

Hopefully in the final version the large lotus has more fountains like the concept art where flat like water is pooring out to the sides with moving fountains in the middle like the other four lotus. I'm thinking sadly that was one of the changes/cuts.

 

[PorterRedkey]

Some of the effects from the concept, but not seen last night, will arrive soon. I know fire is coming; I don't know about the lanterns.

Fire is coming! Yeah!

The finale is still be worked on. It has not been cut.

The finale is still be worked on. It has not been cut.

So it will actually have more fountains than what was used in the preview?

Nice to know that the finale is still being worked on. I think once the finale is perfected then the rest of the show will be perfect. I still loved every second on it last night.
