OK... Catching up Wishes Vids on YT from last night. Saw Tink fly and it looked like she turned towards MS??? Is that new? Is that for HEA and they just debuted that last night?

Didn't see that live last night..that was when the streams were acting up.

Thank you sir. You were an inspiration.

Pyro by itself does not interest me, I focus more on "feelings". To be fair it will probably be technically superior to Wishes but the IP selection and especially the music (which is the most critical element) seems to not be as good as Wishes.
Will look forward to seeing how you "feel" when you have seen the show live . A verdict on a youtube channel isn't valid when it comes to feelings.

Please do not start that. You already know how everyone feels and we all know how you do, just let it go.

That's right, we only allow opinions that we agree with to be shared here!

I will save my final review for tomorrow but considering the choice of films being represented, this will likely be a HUGE downgrade from Wishes.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a downgrade.

I will miss Wishes as it was very special to me and my fiancee.... as is all of Disney World.. sad to see it go but excited to see Happily Ever After in August... maybe for the only time as who knows what will be there when we next visit in probably 5 years :(

None of you know all of who will be used (unless you are an insider) and you haven't heard the entire show. Let's judge it when it debuts. Sounds like a very big mix of characters to me. Music, well that's subjective. Some just won't like it.

This show will be an upgrade no doubt. Disliking it is one thing but let's not call it a downgrade. JMO.

Speaking of music from Wishes, I've got a bit of an odd request.

There's the initial announcement audio ("In just 15 minutes…"), which then segued into an orchestral version of "A Dream is a Wish…", and a few other songs. I have tried for years now to find that orchestral audio. If anyone has any leads on where/what it might be, even if it's just a bad quality YouTube video where I can hear it in the background, I would be so grateful.
Here you go.

I don't know about others, but just in the clips we've seen I caught bits of Snow White, the Little Mermaid, the Lion King, Tarzan, Toy Story, Aladdin, Princess and the Frog, Up, Moana, perhaps Tangled, and Peter Pan among the 3 minutes of video we've seen. I know I'm missing some. Those areal solid Disney properties, and we haven't even seen 1/4 of the show!

I'll be watching tonight!

OK, This does sound more promising than I thought. We shall see what happens tonight.

I'll be at Disneyland tonight, and I just remembered that 4 minutes of Wishes is part of the fireworks show there plus the exit song. It'll be nice to still have a piece of the show playing.

Sounds like a typical modern pop song. Not getting much of a "timeless" vibe.

Other side of the country but I'm curious on your opinion of World of Color music wise. Great soundtrack but uses a pop version of the theme for exit music, maybe HEA will be the same.

And is it just me, or does anyone else find it odd that HEA is being shown tonight at 9 before OUAT at 9:45..shouldn't they have OUAT before HEA?

EDIT:
I'm particularly curious about Hunchback. Really hope it doesn't just fall back on another "Hellfire" sequence.

Bells of Notre Dam maybe?

I'm hoping for Out There from DLP's Dreams Since DPB mention Quasi at the start of all this.

OMG! Today is the day! The Wishes poster at the Train Station is already replaced with HEA! Saw it on Twitter.
PLEASE MK! Let tonight be just like the testing! I wonder if we'll see any lights before HEA? I also wonder if OUAT is upgraded tonight.
