Snow White?

Snow White?

Shhh... nobody tell him

I mean a lot of what’s already been announced will be part of the celebration I just hope they do lots of cool small things too.

The new security booths and tram stops are my favorite part of the celebration.

Never let it be said that Alicia is high maintenance. :thumbsup:

Yeah, they did a lot of small updates to older rides at DL for their 60th. I’m hoping for the same here.

I also am hoping for a new nighttime parade for MK, but I have a feeling it’s for naught.

OMG I could have sworn they still had that.

OMG I could have sworn they still had that.

I mean technically they do... she’s just in the Mine Train ride now.

At this point, all I ask is that they bring back the big mortar fireworks for A Galactic Spectacular at DHS.

Pretty please...

Never gonna happen since cars were literally being set on fire by the fall out and World Drive is too busy of a road to shut down.

What? The whole purpose of the new launch site was for the large mortars. You’re telling me they didn’t take into account wind??

The new launch site has been a bit of a failure on the whole, but they also had no choice as the old fireworks launch site was where TSL now sits, so it had to move anyway. Launching across the street from the park, off-center and over top of what is essentially a highway within Disney property does not make for an ideal set up.

Take it with a grain of salt but...

They NEED a new night time parade! The rush out at fireworks is a pain in the butt, and a new parade would help mitigate a lot of the problems and the crush on the transportation system.

Paint the Night would be incredible

We will probably get something Pixar related if that happens though

Paint The Night is a great parade, but it debuted in 2014 at HKDL so it’s already going on 6 years old.

I know beggars can’t be choosers, but I would prefer a brand new parade over a clone of a parade that’s already been around for a bit.

50th Anniversary arches are looking nice. I like the color scheme a lot better than the outdated 90's design.

I’m sure that I’ll agree in time. It’s just that I’ve never seen anything but the old aesthetic.

The old color scheme screamed 90s. I don’t know if I’d call the new scheme modern though. It feels dated but in a different time period.
