They're definitely hiding the IP at the moment since the arched barges are always shown with what looks like generic transitional media, but the water screen still looks comparatively unfocused to the point of seemingly not meshing very well.
) I'll be in the minority, but I actually think this looks pretty neat.
Try as I may this video will never get wiped from the interwebs. At least it'll be irrelevant in a couple months lol
As long as there is a recognizable song or two and fireworks the general public will love it. But that's exactly the issue at hand, the average guest will love the most basic songs and fireworks so it's up to the Imagineers/show team to create a cohesive theme and plot for the show to fit with the park.
Agree on all of the above. I have yet to see a show photo where the fountains impressed me; if anything, I feel all the shots so far would look better WITHOUT the fountains. There's just nothing attractive about them - they don't seem particularly big or impressive, they're surprisingly poorly lit, they're spraying at all kinds of wired angles... you're just left confused about what they're supposed to be doing.
Bingo. I suspect the general public will find the pyro, lasers, and lighting effects dazzling to a degree, but I wouldn't be surprised if some of the feedback also ends up being along the lines of, "It's neat, but it's just a weirder/messier version of the Magic Kingdom show. On a lake."
While not as large, we have a pretty good timeframe to go off of for an unpopular show being closed; Rivers of Light. (personally, it was my favorite but I know the sentiment was not largely shared)We know the vloggers will lose their **** over HARModious. I just wonder how many casual visitors will also eat up the modern Disney movie references and whizz-bang-flashy-stuff, though. That is what concerns me. This thing becoming a dud within a year (generous but, for the $$$ they’vewastedspent on it, appropriate) would be optimal for its removal, if you ask me. Ok, removal is going too far and hoping for too much, but if you can dream it…
an original story and score! - we can only hope

Opened in 2017 & closed in March 2020. (pandemic could have sped up the process who knows)
So even if it's not popular, ~3 years minimum would be the length of the show's run.
Far more likely however would be the show being redone with new digital scenes from different movies or maybe even *dramatic pause*
Which is what they should have done all along. ROE could have been “plussed” instead of this mess ….
