The paris show must be a preview of what we can expect to see at the new Disney Shanghi park. I would love to see the Florida Fantasmic reworked to incorporate this digital projection technology.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros Well now we know what happened to the WOC pre-show at DCA! After it quietly went away at the end of the first summer, I wondered if it would ever return. After a Christmas season and the following summer without it, I had lost a lot of hope. Then, in September, I ran the DL Half Marathon, and the puppet of Mike (from Monsters, Inc) from the show was 'greeting' runners backstage at DCA, which gave me hope that it would return. Now, it seems, that the puppets (suspiciously, all but Mike) have shown up in Paris for the Dreams premiere. It wasn't the greatest show ever produced, but it was a nice way to kill time for the people waiting for the show to start, and it was only able to run before the first show of the night due to the FP logistics. It's a shame that now F! at DL and WOC at DCA are both without any entertainment for the crowds waiting. Hopefully they'll get some more use in Paris, since they were pretty neat to see in person. And did we ever see a picture of the 'finished' castle moat? I'm wondering what they did to cover up those big metal poles that were sticking up from the middle of the water...

It will take a few more weeks, because of last minute changes they made to the fountains. According to DLRPToday Steve Davison said that in a Q&A during the press event. The video of that Q&A will be uploaded on that site.
