Personally I love HarmonioUS. I love most things new at EPCOT. I feel like I might be on a hitlist for the older folk here but I'm enjoying it all rn.

Duck and cover my friend.
He's got the right idea about the older folk here though.It’s okay. Someone has to enjoy it.
Older? Nah. More…. class? Understanding? Maybe.
Where?
Indeed. Not much left anymore.
On that much we agree.
Anywhere it seems. Sadly.
Wow, twice in a row now.

You are allowed to like it. Just know many of us who don't aren't salty. We just don't like it or hate the barges or both.

My comment that I made when I resurrected a thread from February wasn't really to also resurrect a discussion about whether or not people like HarmoniUS. What I wanted to know is what holds this show together. What's the story? To me, it seemed just like a very loose montage of Disney songs. I'm sure there must be something that I'm missing.

I mean the title of the thread is questioning if HarmonioUS can maintain its existence. Don't people have to have opinions on it to determine the length of its existence? That discussion ain't as irrelevant as you're making it out to be.
Also not every show needs some super deep story. Illuminations was made better by that but shows don't require it. Both shows are still inspiring to me. They both spread similar messages to me. I think HarmonioUS will last as long as Disney wants it to and if people don't like it (which not everyone hates it), then they'll make changes through the years until they're able to perfect it. That's what they did with Illuminations, no?
I watched a couple more viewings of it on YouTube this weekend. You still get that feeling of different cultures but one world with the songs being sung in their native language. And most people probably know the songs regardless of language by the music. Can't wait to see it in person.

They would have been better off just adding a 50th tag to Illuminations

Fair enough. I just felt like the like/dislike discussion had been beaten to death, and I was hoping for a slightly different angle on the discussion.
If I'm being completely honest, I think part of my issue with HarmoniUS is that I *really* liked Illuminations. My day at Epcot started with Spaceship Earth and ended with Reflections of Earth. I really liked that the park celebrated human achievement and potential. Of course, the park is changing . . .
Like you said, perhaps I just need to give the show more time to develop.

The best part about this fireworks show and the previous one is that you can head to the bus and get on while they were/are going on. I didn't care for either show.
that's what I usually use the MK shows for. Not leaving but power walk rides. My son and I hit Pirates, Thunder, mansion, speedway and buzz once. It's was great.

Sounds like a good plan. Have you ever done Jungle Cruise during the FW? I hear it's better.
I have not yet. I'll put it on the list.
