I was hoping that it would be representative of the first 50 years of DL, like the fireworks are. But, nope. Another boring one, IMHO. [I do like the finale float though. As floats go, it's pretty good].
Originally Posted By tcsnwhite "Parade of dreams is scheduled to stay for five years but would get changes in music and coreography as well as some costuming." is there anyway you can elaborate on new "music"? new show stop music? or possibly new float units from different films with all new music? do you know anymore about that?

Originally Posted By RAM1984 I didn't like Block Party the first time I saw it. Then a few months later I saw it with my grandchildren and that made all the difference.

To me, it's up there in overall entertainment appeal along with the Lion King Celebration, and the Mulan parade.
Originally Posted By deadmentellnotales yeah the Mulan parade was by far my favorite. It was alsom like seeing a cirque de soliel show in DL, too bad that one didn't come back, along with the toy story parade.
