And I think its a really good effort from the Steve Davison and his creative team. This is exactly the sort of parade the park needed and a worth while replacement to Disney on Parade. This surely must be a sign of things to come with both Mickey's Soundsational Parade and Fantasmic also opening up in California and Japan this year. Its just a shame that while some Disney Resorts are happy and understand the need to spend large amounts of money to create something special for its park and all its Guests. We than have another Resort that gives you abysmal offerings like this weeks debut of that new Pixar Parade at Disney Hollywood Studios.

The soundtrack is great...and the variations for each float unit are quite nice. The vocals and overall musical direction are very contemporary, but they work. I think Steven used Mark Hammond (Parade of Dreams, etc.) for this...at least it sounds like his work. And as for those costumes reminding anyone of Jubilation!, that's because they were all designed by Mirena Rada.
