Gotcha. I’m trying not to spoil too much before I see it in person and only saw clips from the first one so far.

So yea, at least in this case, that sign is a little disingenuous.

One thing Universal continues to struggle with is entertainment. They should have spent the money on that sweet parade they’ve got going on in Japan. Disney doesn’t have anything like that and it’s a strong enough production that it’d keep people around til park close. This new Fantasmic Lite tucked away in the corner of the lagoon is NOT representative of a destination theme park.

Actual guests seem to think far differently.

100% Agree

I absolutely agree that that should be the next thing they focus on, but this show was a step in the right direction and is flexible enough that they can make additional versions/changes to it every now and then. It works and people ARE staying.

Oh I get that and agree 100% but we all know their potential, even if the corner fountain show is a step in the right direction
 
Having Rivers of Light in just the tiny portion of the "River" is amateur, the show should go all the way around the tree of life.

Let's not kid ourselves, Rivers of Light is a much larger production than this. All I'm saying is that for as big of a park as USF is, it deserves something that's complimentary of that. Now if they had done those fountains with more pyro, fire, and some live action "Dynamite Nights" stuff I think I'd be singing a different tune.
