Spectro Magic changes

Admittedly, I haven't finished Epic Mickey yet, but I think Oswald would fit great on the three little pigs float! The pigs paint everything from white to color during Spectro. Not to mention they are classic Disney characters.

I may have missed this, but is he getting his own new float?

Thanks Drew!

I like both parades but I find that MSEP was very short. I liked Spectro better because it was the first Disney parade I saw so it brings back some magical memories.

And The Main Street Electrical Parade was the first Disney parade I remember seeing and holds some very special memories for me which is why I enjoy it so much. That's what is so great about Disney, there is something for everyone.

The float will shift from colored to black and white.

this shouldn't be too shocking.. thats what most of the floats do now, as well as most of the costumes.

Don't know if I'm going to wade through this entire thread or not. But this post exemplifies the different generations. Just substitute MSEP for SPECTRO and you have my opinion. I like MSEP better because it has better music and always reminds me of my first trip to WDW!! Specifically what's better about the music is the much more uptempo pace.

My first night parade I saw was spectro, and after the cast preview of MSEP I was hooked. Spectro puts me to sleep yyaaaaawwwwnnnnn does anyone clap on the streets? do you see CMs bouncing as they walk around the park to spectro? no, cuz it's boring. MSEP > Spectro in every way

Only seen Spectro so I can't say anything about MSEP...but I loved Spectro and would love to see it return, ESPECIALLY with Oswald.

A little less Sleeping Beauty and a little more something else would be a welcome change from where I sit, when SpectroMagic returns. Sleeping Beauty is a classic and all, but do the individual fairies really each need their own float?

On the other hand, the multiple floats from Fantasia are a highlight of the parade, so hopefully they will all come back. :D

Oswald in Spectro? How funny would that be! I wonder what other characters would be on such a float. That would be great to see.

It's really more of a "garden" segment than a Sleeping Beauty segment, it's just that the three fairies happen to fit in nicely with the garden theme. I'm sure if they wanted they could cut down the segment a little and put all three on one float and then rebuild the other two floats to be reintroduced with a different theme/design elsewhere in the parade.

Actually it's specifically mentioned in the intro as Sleeping Beauty's Garden and they even play Once Upon A Dream in the soundtrack for those floats.

I will disagree 100% about Sleeping Beauty being it back.

This is the ONLY place in the parks where she is represented with any focus. She doesn't get a pontoon for Fantasmic. Or a story thread in wishes. Her castle an caroseul are on the left coast.

In fact the only love that Aurora gets at WDW at all is her $250 tea party at the Grand Floridian.

Please don't shill to cut her back any more. There isn't much left.

Malificent has a starring role in Fantasmic, much more memorable than a pontoon scene. You are going to play the Carousel card here, seriously? :lol:

That's fine, everyone has the things they like the most. To me, each fairy having her own float, garden scene or not, was the weak link of the Spectro parade because the three fairies don't hold that strong a presence in Classic Disney treasures. One person's opinion, that's all. :D

You must have forgotten about the purposed Aurora cottage that was suppose to be part of the Fantasyland expansion though plans have changed.. it was announced in the beginning.

Pardon me, but I'm a CM who sees the night parade practically every night, and I danced to Spectro all the time and had a ton of fun doing it. :( Music doesn't have to be fast to be entertaining or good.

Seconded! Parade was my favorite shift. Too bad F-Land doesn't get to anymore.
