Sounds very exciting! Disney is always doing stuff to make it better for us, the guests. I guess that's why Disney is always cutting edge. I hope they use some of the technology for "Memories and you" as they create a new fireworks show.
Wow! What a week. TGIF!!!
I hate to be a tease but I pitched two amazing new projects and we were given approval to move ahead! YEAH!!! Sorry I can't get into details yet, but some of you will be very, very happy!
What is so hard about creating a new show? I mean haven't they done Pirate & Princess fireworks, Summer Nighttastic fireworks, Hallowishes, and Holiday Wishes all in the same year? Does Disney really sit there and think that they have to do nothing? I can't even wrap my brain around it. lol
Those shows they're building on a pre-existing platform. New shows they, have a bit of foundation but not the same infrastructure to go off. It's like why Cinematic Spectacular took almost a year, where as a quick retooling of 360 would have just taken 2 months.

Those shows are essentially the same thing with different tweaks to the Wishes show. A completely new show would probably feature new rigging, incorporate the castle projections, new platforms, synchronization, narration & musical score, and find a way to make it really different than Wishes. Not to mention, there technically is no "need" for a new show so Disney hasn't exactly been in a rush.
Perfect way to market Epcot I hate to say it but one of my favorite fireworks shows ever (IllumiNations) has suddenly gotten very stale..shells don't synch with the music, the globe is hard to see, and the fountains are dull par-lit fountains..let's just say Wishes is the only show that holds WDW's firework/night show legacy in tact right now, and that is slowly growing old.Yes but from a marketing standpoint.. for the years where they're not opening new attractions (which, for the past two decades, has been most of them), wouldn't they want to at least have a decent fireworks show to push?

Wishes still is a great show, just dated. It always draws good crowds. Illuminations needs to go before Wishes.
Hey, Wishes is 8 years old!!! Illumuniations is a decade +.
