News Round Up 2016

[mara512]

I've got an idea but wanted to gauge interest. I'm wondering how many of you would be interested in a rumor tracker thread. This would track rumors if they came true, where they came from, etc. Just an idea.

Love the idea!

Rumor

Well an Illuminations redo is in serious talks right now that would go away from the millennium theme. While I have no timetable right now the way it sounds though is its going to be much sooner than later.

I will be one of few people who won't miss it at all.

Like how soon? Next year?

 

[Goofy2015]

I personally would rather see a Wishes redo but that won't happen anytime soon.

I wouldn't mind an update to Illuminations as long as it isn't IP related.

Not that soon apparently

So far no IP is attached

Interesting, its my favorite WDW nighttime show. I love the soundtrack.

For Blackish fans the show premieres tonight with an episode in WDW

It was pretty good - though spent most of it noticing the innacuracies... Like how they were trying to find the exit in Magic Kingdom and wind up in the line for Soarin' ... A line that is outdoors :|

Just happened across it - a 30 minute commercial that would really confuse (and set unrealistic expectations for) an uneducated park-goer. The show had the family going on one ride in Epcot, eating in AK, going on another in MK - it was all over the place. For some reason they never went to DHS...

My DH got a kick out of my commentary, though.

Yeah I thought that line outdoors things was really weird. Then they kept appearing in different parks. They would be in AK then minutes later in MK and then in Epcot. Never showed DHS...

I love the show but yes I agree as a Disney fan it was very strange.

I'm guessing because there's not all that much to do there and the construction, of course.

I won't be entirely cynical - the ending was sweet and DID capture the Disney magic of bringing families together and creating memories.

@Taylor Nicole - yes, it was said tongu-in-cheek

 

[nkosiek]

I'm guessing the outdoor Soarin line was because trying to film inside The Land pavillion would've meant they had to shut it down, based on width of walkways and how crowded it gets without filming.

You could have just typed that then.

Yeah, I don't hate it just dont love it like a lot of people do. Although I do like when the torches get "blown out"
