Ummm...well, I'm sorry that you're not a fan of Block Party Bash...really no need for that, though.
Anyway, the villains are the focus of the Boo to You parade as part of Mickey's Not-so-Scary Halloween Party. As for the future, who knows. There are rumors that MK may be getting a new parade sometime in the nearish future, but nothing is anywhere near confirmed.

Next time maybe spend an extra minute thinking before expressing yourself? I don't think your question deserves a thoughtful reply.

Why doesn't it? The OP asked a question and then he stated his opinion on the current parade at DHS. The only thing he didn't do was post a question mark after his question, but other then that he didn't do anything wrong here.

What's wrong with Block Party Bash?

I personally don't think there is anything really "wrong" with Block Party Bash, but I preferred Stars and Motor Cars MUCH, MUCH, more.
I like how Stars and Motor Cars used a LOT more characters than just from 3 Pixar films so there was a LOT more variety. You had the Star Wars characters representing Star Tours (it was always a highlight when R2-D2 would roll over to me and beep!) the Muppets representing Muppet Vision, plus a LOT of Disney characters representing both new and old animated classics from Snow White all the way to Mulan. And also, Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto were in it!
Even with all those characters, Pixar still got representation with Toy Story and Monsters Inc.
I also liked the motorcars themselves which were charming in their design and also fit the park's theme of "Old Hollywood" perfectly. I just feel that this parade was much wider in scope and really captured the spirit, theme, and scope of the park much more than the current one. In that sense it reminded me of Jammin' Jungle Parade at AK, because both of those parades really ARE their parks, IMO, and fit their parks perfectly like a glove.
Also, music is a big part of the park experience for me and the parades are no exception. I absolutely LOVED the catchy musical theme of Stars and Motor Cars, which was written just for the parade. BPB uses regular pop music from outside the parks, which is "less magical" for me. And even if you are trying to enjoy the music of BPB, it is unfortunately constantly being interupted by the Green Army Men in full "obnoxious DJ mode" with inane chatter like "C'mon" and "Let me hear you scream".

Not everyone likes everything. there are those who love block party bash, those who dispise it.. and those like me who may catch it every so often but not always.
I o feel the villans as a whole were downsized but their removal allowed for some more characters to be added to the parade route to interact with guests rather than all of the characters on the floats while only dancers on the parae route. I would love to see them reintroduced in the future.

why? really? so you think that "beacuse it is a bunch of bull**** " is a valid comment in any way?
Sorry I mistakenly jumped in the kiddie pool I guess.
