  • After an absence of over a year, the thrilling nighttime spectacle of Fantasmic! has returned to the Rivers of America at Disneyland. While the majority of the show remains the same as ever, two big changes were made - namely the return of Peter Pan and a reimagined Maleficent scene.

      The dragon is expensive and right now is a bad time for Disney to buy a new one. They are under a mandate to keep their profit/loss numbers as positive as they possibly can. Investors are very worried about the health of the company right now. Disney needs to implement smoke and mirrors to keep the illusion that Disney is in really good shape.

    These seem to be just minor show show changes with big removals. I know the floating carpet effect was often problematic and we know about "Murphy". Maybe removing them was an additional cost saving measure? The Peter Pan scene was developed years ago so that was not to tough to insert. Question: Why did it take so long to bring this show back? This show just has some elements removed and a well-known Peter Pan scene put back in. It didn't even require a new orchestra recording or any real studio or sound work. I would guess this show has a lower nightly maintenance cost over the last one? I dunno,...this feels like a "Fantasmic Light" or maybe "Diet Fantasmic"???

      I have a feeling that the true answer is “The fire did a lot more damage to the technical show elements than we were led to believe and most of the time/financial budgets were spent repairing electronics, wiring, and physical set pieces damaged by the fire rather than actually developing a new show. You should be happy we got the show up and running at all and be quiet while we slowly update the actual show a little bit at a time to bring the elements that we didn’t have time or budget to repair or develop earlier into the show later.”
      But Disney will never actually say anything like that out loud.

    20:20 Watching a drag queen on stilts is what people have been waiting an entire year for in this updated version of Fantasmic, which is the B-Mode that occurs whenever Murphy (the dragon) wasn't working.
    Since 1992, I've witnessed the changes, and I must say, it's thanks to people like you who still go and endure the crowds that I don't have to waste money on a downgraded experience. Disney had a whole year to improve, but they kept it in B-Mode. It's disappointing that they couldn't invest in a new dragon, especially considering how much money we spend on sodas alone. It's a slap in the face, but not surprising since Disney doesn't prioritize creativity anymore. They're more like financial engineers than "Imagineers." If they can't even fund a prop for a historic show, it's clear they don't care anymore and it took the dragon burning down for them to finally fix all the fountain nozzles, lol.
    Disney doesn't prioritize creativity anymore. ALL the money they get, they give it to their exes and cut departments like Disney Imaginary that Universal is beating them in theme park industry. Hell, there new drone show Disney Springs was pathetic compared to what the Angeles (Anaheim baseball team) did for May the 4th Be With You.

      They are still in the show!! The cast members who play those roles on the mark twain also double as pirates in the Peter Pan scene, unfortunately on this night the boat broke down and instead of operating on its own, it had to be pushed by a separate mechanism which made the boat a lot slower so those cast members weren’t able to change from pirates to their finale costumes and make it to the mark twain on time.

    I just watched the original, 2.0, and this new one in succession and I can say this is actually a great mixture of the 2 versions! I can actually appreciate this one for what it is and actually like it better now that I have compared them. The 2.0 version was way too busy and the music changed a little too much. This version brings back a bit of that original magic with updated technology.
    I think the lighting, water, and pyrotechnics are closer to the original and match the music a lot better than 2.0. I also love that percussion is more prominent again in the jungle book set because I was really bummed when 2.0 made it more electronic. I also do think Peter Pan fits better than PoC, even though I love the music & effects of it, because Fantasmic is all animation so PoC doesnt fit.
    Now that I've seen all the versions, I'm pretty happy with this one! And i just hope it continues to improve (add dragon and characters on Mark Twain).

  • @SparksEchidna
    @SparksEchidna Před 22 dny +3

    Honestly, this is an improvement over the other version just by removing Pirates alone, that scene really killed the flow of the show and was the main reason I hated 2.0. However I do agree with everyone about the dragon gone and the disappointment after a whole year of the show being gone. The year hiatus I understand completely because not only did they need to rework the show, but the whole area needed to be repaired, I'm sure there was more problems and damage outside of just Murphy. However Without the dragon, it feels like something is missing in the show. I do understand that safety does come first and Murphy is probably burnt to a crisp beyond repair. Maybe soon there will be a new dragon in it's place, but for now at least Fantasmic can continue to enchant the night.

    y’all need to understand that yes there are lack of animatronics in the show, but also remember the reason why there was a hiatus in the first place, and why we got to this point? obviously with safety being the top priority, the safety of the show and the audience is most important. and does that mean cutting some animatronics so there would not be a fire in the middle of the show (cause that happened before)? unfortunately it is what it is but it’s still the same show without it.
