It's an amazing parade, buuuut... I would LOVE to switch parades with Tokyo's Dreamlights... it's the perfect mix of MSEP and Spectro! *even uses MSEP's Baroque Hoedown as an underliner! There are some great videos out there of it.
I LOVED MSEP and was sad to see it leave, but welcomed the new technology in Spectro. Now I love Spectro, but almost cried when I got to see ELP in Disneyland last year! All that said, I would love to see a new parade at MK, ONLY if it's an upgrade.

MSEP was GREAT to see, but if I had to choose between it and Spectro on a nightly basis, or even as a Guest for the first time, it would be Spectro.

maybe while we're switching, & or cloning parades from other parks later this year we can swap spectro for fantillusion for a while. if it went from tokyo to paris it can cross the atlantic to wdw.

This year should signal the end of Spectromagic as much as I love it.
Talk is it's being replaced with Tokyo's version of the Main street elecric light parade.

I think we're to point where we can do something better than Spectromagic.
I think the technology is there and they just need the budget and dedication. I've seen spectro like 5 times in the past week, and there's always huge gaps in the vehicle spacing, the audio system needs help, and some of the floats and costumes were showing major wear/tear.
Those troll-doll look alikes are creepy and the light effect in their masks i dont beleive works the way they were intended. It just looks "off."
I also thing we can do better than the "Christmas light sewn-in" look for the costumes and floats. There's a lot more available nowadays for a "magical" parade than that style of lights on black or white.
For example, those dragon-fly things just look sorta silly. They're rope lights with an obvious massive battery pack.
I think it's time for an upgrade.

What, "S for Spectromen?" :lookaroun :lol:
Well if you've seen it enough times to think it's getting old, then you've seen it too many times.
The magic eventually fades if you abuse the term 'vacation'.
I honestly think that if you visit WDW more than an average of once every 2 years (going to different parks on visits doesn't count, obviously), then inevitably you're going to stop feeling the sparks and electricity that made it so special in the first place.

I think it's moreso they've never changed out the effect in Mickey's spectroball thingy rather than me not feeling the sparks.
Some of the lights are faded/broken and the parade seemingly can't run without huge gaps.
It's like when Tapestry started axing the number of dancers of each type. It's time for it to go.
