I agree with you about the fireworks thing. At IoA, the show has to be the worst I've ever seen. 4th of July fireworks shows at local parks (I'm thinking of Red hot and boom at Cranes Roost Park...Other locals should know what I'm talking about!) do stuff better than that show. It also kind of copied Epcots show, in it's idea at least (the story is "the creation of light). I think one way to make it better would be to play the music to from the rides that they have at IoA, like they do at Universal. At least then, you would have something to relate with, even if the fireworks themselves do nothing special, and look like the same ones you could buy at a fireworks stand around 4th of July.
I'd have to say that Universals show is better than IoA, but not great, and it has some major problems. At least for this park, the music selections work with the park's theme. But, at this park, the fireworks do the sme thing over and over again, in different sequences. If you're standing in front of a barge, you could feel the ashes from the fireworks exploding on you as well, which I would consider is a bad thing!
The parks also play their fireworks with a five minute difference between them, and they are right next to each other, so you kind of get confused which fireworks are from which park, once the otherone starts up.
I'd have to say that who ever Universal has in charge of their fireworks needs to be fired, because all fireworks shows that they have ever had, have never been good. That boat stunt show that Universl used to have was bad, and their shows now are nothing special...They definily need to hire some new people, that have enough Imagination to come up with something unique for their parks shows. (lazers would be a good edition anyway!)
