News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

[MisterPenguin]

Well they brought in a 26KV service to one of the islands with the numerous pad transformers on it for a reason.

Maybe that's just to electrocute the gators?

Those fountains already look a little crooked, that authentic Epcot Fountain look.

Or the imagineers. Sorry Instagramineers.

Will there be enough energy to destroy a planet is the question? Will it all combust in one fantastic fireball when finally ignited? Imagine what a fantastic show it will be and an exclusive one time performance!

Is it even worth it to stop by Guest Relations to drop a complaint about this?

I wondered this myself, but I assume they'll simply note your complaint and then fire it off down the memory hole.

 

[ShookieJones]

Unfortunately, yes.

Thanks......I think. Now I know why this thread is topping 238 pages and counting.

This is really unfortunate.

Wonder if Tokyo’s show will give us a idea somewhat of what to expect from Harmonious? Minus certain parts like, barges moving.

Oh God please no. A big bright LED screen will ruin the ambiance/ambient warm lighting in world showcase. Just like when I visit Universal Citywalk that is very nice except for NBC Grills huge bright LED screen showing useless sports clips and ruining the nice warm lighting in city walk.

It’s not like Humungous has got 8 of them.

Between those giant screens and all the other lighting, WS should be pretty bright lol. Should be able to see all the spotlights miles away to I would imagine. That was possible even with just the pavilion spot lights.

 

[MrPromey]

I'd call that a benefit

You wouldn't if you knew what the bottom of that "lake" consists of, especially in the area near the Odyssey/Mexico.

20 minutes of flashy bling for the Instagram crew.

Then forget about it and move onto the next thing.

Would be awesome to get this fire effect. But that would require lines in the water.

I do like that fire patern on the water! Very mystical.

 

[Brenthodge]

I believe that’s the same fire effect originally installed for BRAVISEAMO.

Here is a look at today's Harmonious fountain test. You can also see some testing of the icon barge lighting.

I hope I get a good boarding group for Guest Relations.

Hope Disney has applied for some of that Covid Relief money to hook this up with Green Power!!

Out of curiosity simply because I don't know, what does the bottom consist of?

Rotting "organic matter".

That area was home to a sinkhole that had been naturally filled in over time with leaves, plants, the occasional unfortunate animal, etc. - we're talking about something that started long before Disney showed up on the scene.

They went through a process to compress the muck which pushed most of the water out to make it less muck-like and condense it to make a more solid base but that original debris represents the foundation of that area.

In truth, it's probably more gross to think about than dangerous save for a brain eating amoeba or two* but I still wouldn't want that water spraying on me.



*chances of getting an amoeba from that water, even if it's present, without engaging in in serious water sport activity is about zero but I throw mention of it in for dramatic effect.

 

[THEMEPARKPIONEER]

I wonder how many die hard Epcot fans will go storming out of World Showcase when they start blaring “Let It Go” and “Into The Unknown” hahaha . I can almost guarantee you those songs will be in the show in some way lol.

That’s my bathroom break time, if they start laying Remember the Magic I’m staying away until that song cycles out again.

@marni1971 are you aware if Harm will have a similar amount of fireworks compared to EF and RoE?

I am, but I’d have to find the numbers.
