Something is going to happen to Fantasmic

[rk03221]

I’m a former cm and I still have a lot of friends working at wdw. The ones who work in studios have been posting alarming Facebook posts such as “please leave fantasmic alone”, “I hope fantasmic doesn’t go” and “don’t touch fantasmic” etc. The cms said there is a nighttime show making its final curtain call and everything seems to be pointing to Fantasmic. Keep an eye out

Speaking of Fantasmic, Tokyo DisneySea will be losing their version of Fantasmic in March.

No offense to your friends, but if they are front line CM's they rarely have access to accurate information on this sort of thing.

This photo went semi-viral in CM groups. Probably no there there

This sounds too good to be true.

Don't throw stones at me but Fantasmic has been low hanging fruit for year....

I wouldn't mind Fantasmic getting an update.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the current version of Fantastic, it's still a great cleaning project..

p.s. I am aware that this is probably a result of auto-correct.

It's a cartoon that someone slapped the names of Disney shows on. I'm not buying it.

Actually no, one is a manager in galaxies edge lol. Even so, the frontline cms do know higher up people within the company. Once something like this gets out frontline are almost the first ones to know.

If Fantasmic blew up that would be no loss. For most of the day, the huge patch of land is not utilized until the evening shows at night. Not surprised if the powers that be (WDI) have their wheels spinning on what the next thing will be....

I have two friends that are imagineers, one of them helped build galaxies edge and toy story land. I will try to get something out of her later but I highly doubt it lol

Changes to Fantasmic! have been proposed for years, but other shows keep moving ahead on the priority list. There is no doubt it will happen at some point, and with it being the longest running at this point, it will likely be next.

I mean... anything they can do to improve the DHS version is welcome in my books... Moving fountains, new and better pyro, lighting, laser, projections... dragon.

If they're going to revamp the show, I say revamp everything including the stage. Fantasmic has been the most deserving out of all the attractions in WDW to receive an update. Disneyland get little tweaks here and there for their Fantasmic, while WDW's version has been stuck in 1998. The only "recent" thing worked on was the video montage at the start of the show because they HAD to include Frozen characters, which ended up ruining the video montage. Even the costumes have gone to $heit!

But I still see Disney doing away with the show and brining another concept to life.
