I hope Harmonious is a great show. The Epcot Forever is not very good in my opinion. There is no story at all, just a collage of mostly Epcot music. The songs aren't stitched together very well, someone with experience in Goldwave could have done that work. The kindergarten karaoke version of just one spark was horrible. The edit of spread your golden wings was sloppy (and why get rid of "America"?). They wrap the show with music from Aladdin, how not very Epcotty. The show is very short and it just ends with the annoying child announcing the tag line and saying good night. The fireworks were not well timed. The lasers were more like a dance club show. Having said all of that, it is a place holder show, I wish they had done better but I guess they didn't have time so there you go and its better than having nothing for a year (I guess). If Harmonious is going to be another exercise in "synergy" schilling other Disney products (read: how can we sell more merch) then it will be sad. As long as I've lived in Orlando I've gone to see Illuminations and grab a bite to eat fairly regularly because it was uplifting. I doubt I will ever actually drive to Epcot for dinner and a show with Epcot Forever, it's just boring and very unimaginative.
