Should Epcot back down on having Disney music in Harmonious?

[THEMEPARKPIONEER]

For a show that represents the world there’s so much music and culture in Disney related to show that would make this show so much more impressive. They have never made a nighttime show all about Disney Music and I don’t think it should ever belong in a nighttime show at Epcot. That would make one more show to many using Disney Music. Happily Ever covers that already not to mention they both have the same song for the ending.

Since this forum is mostly an ANTI IP area I would say many would say yes. This is a bad joke. Please don’t hurt me.

Oh my noooo...They NEVER did that...
*cough*

*Cough*

 

[Tony the Tigger]

No.

 

[Tom Morrow]

I would say yes, but at this point, by then the park will be mostly about characters and IP, so it's like, not worth caring about anymore what the nighttime show is. "Epcot Center" finally died on 9/30/19 with IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth.

Perhaps the greatest aspect of Illuminations was the score. Illuminations was stunning, as is World of Color.

They will have to search far and wide to find a score that will give me the chills that Illumination did. I hope the show’s original theme song strikes the right chord.

For this park? Yes.

Or rather, that park.

 

[AndyS2992]

I'd like to actually watch the show before passing judgement

I'm beginning to think that too. At some point, WS will have become World Fantasyland. EPCOT music will be out of place, not Let it Go. It's a whole new world showcase indeed.

Shudder at the thought as we may, Mark Twain and Ben Franklin clash with the WS theme now, until they break out into Colors of the Wind together as Pocahontas shows up in the audience for a photo op.

I think that the parks itself are coming to a point they are their Own Lands making WDW the entire Magic Kingdom. By that I mean...
MK - Fantasyland
Epcot - Tomorrowland
AK - Adventureland
DHS - Can't put my finger on it but I can say Modern IP Wonderland for now...

DHS- Pixar and Star Wars.

The American Adventure was one of the crown jewels of EPCOT Center.

Now it's an anomaly that "doesn't make sense" because it's not "Disney" or "family friendly".

It does not make sense because they eliminated show elements trying to be PC. PC does not work when dealing with history. A fine example is POTC. Before long the pirates will be gentlemen swilling sherry and smoking cigars. Oh wait that is modern millionare businessmen. Corporate Pirates.

Wait a second...... we can change POTC to Corporate Pirates of Modern Times. CPoMT. Iger can be front and center. Chapek can be the barker parrot. Meg can be the Red Head. Perfection!!!!!

Muhuhahahahaha.
Muhuhahahahaha.
Muhuhahahahaha.

The show has not had its script or show scenes revised since it opened in 1982. Only the montage has been changed.

Hall of Presidents? Yes, multiple times.

Plus it would be a bit difficult to get John Anderson & Dallas Mckennon back as they have passed several years ago to add new Dialogue....

Back down from whom?

 

[Seabasealpha1]

I’d rather they did. I enjoyed the fact that there we no lyrics being badly sung to the tunes of illuminations. Now...

No imagery, just a soundtrack and fireworks and you get the chills. Back then they could spin a globe with pictures and have a great show. Now they use clips from movies, back then a Disney attraction could have hours of footage and a great attraction and there would be be one line or clip from a movie. Soarin is great because soarin is its own attraction, footage and music.
