'Once Upon A Time' projection show to replace Celebrate the Magic

[JohnD]

Then obviously you don't get it period. Celebrate the magic was more than projections thrown on the Castle, there was a somewhat loose storyline and there was no 4 min Frozen section there and def not for the entire run of the show. Yes, Frozen was there for the end of it's run but before that it was Brave etc. CTM had fantastic music and I loved that it included Pixar films as well and very creatively. I just watched the show that's coming on YouTube and bleh. I may watch it once and then enjoy the rides the rest of the time I'm there.

Not to mention, Angela Lansbury gets on my last nerve so there's another strike against this "new" show.

I liked the show. I also get that the only constant is change, so here's hoping the new show is just as good. I was in MK over Labor Day weekend with a family who had never seen CTM. They had been to MK multiple times but always showed up in front of the castle just before Wishes. I got them there 30 minutes prior. They really enjoyed the show.

I get that but like I said, I watched the new show on YT and no thanks.

I think I know where you're going. What I do like about CTM is the "random" element of it. Quick snippets of many of their properties. I get the impression that the new show will be several longer vignettes. I'm going to miss it on check out day but I'm sure I'll see a video of it at some point so will reserve judgment.

Why wait?! Just go look it up on YT.

Thank the maker Celebrate the Magic is leaving, that show was one giant Frankenstein mess! Once Upon a Time however is Steve Davidson's only show that has a focus, and has class. There's finally a nighttime show at WDW that is modern and is kosher.

 

[Sped2424]

At least it won't contain a Frozen segment.

About that..don't be shocked if there's a new edit.

 

[Tiki Queen of Outer Space]

Steve Davidson is as overrated as they come

My problem with his shows is they mostly lack a plot and feature 15+ finales.

Disney really should have Cinderella or the Fairy godmother host the shows at the castle. Too bad they missed the chance this time.

They both have a full sequence in the show... is that not good enough?

 

[asianway]

Well would you look st that! Disney announcing something A WEEK prior! WAHOOOOOO!!! Cmon Rivers of Light you can do it!!!!

Anything with performers cant take anyone by surprise with union mandated auditions and entertainments' history of being unable to keep anything confidential.

They are both in the show and who better to Host than Angela Lansbury.

Elsa and Olaf are in TDL'S finale, no frozen music though. I wonder if MK Will get TDL'S Digital files?

Celebrate was entirely forgettable. Look up 'Disney Dreams' on YouTube in Paris for how good castle projection can be.

In the past 6 months we have an updated projection show, a new stage show and a highly acclaimed addition in the Muppets.

Could whoever's showing MK entertainment some love and attention make their way to DHS where they're still showing the same shows they were 20 years ago, because that'd be great.

Don't forget there is a winter edit of the tdl show which has a frozen segment that can be integrated here to our regular version very easily.

It is beyond time to get over this pressed attitude that Cindy and Co were evicted from the Castle shows.

If anything this is a big step up for the characters from the last projection show.

 

[Sped2424]

The winter edition of the Tokyo show which features a 3 minute frozen segment for those curious to see how it would be done.

I also don't think it's fair to put CTM and Disney Dreams in the same category. Much as Once Upon A Dream w/ TDL, Disney Dreams functions as DLP's fireworks show.

I agree....didn't mean the whole show, more the quality of the projection aspects

 

[Jedi14]

I like that the castle stage show has the more recent characters while Once Upon A Time will have some of the more classic characters like Pooh and Alice

But what about the show with Anna and Elsa for the castle lighting? When I've been there the last two years the Frozen part of CtM was removed during the holidays because of that (I'm assuming).
