Originally Posted By TDLFAN I agree. DLP's Lion King blew me away. It's too bad we don't have the same quality in the shows we get at WDW, and at the risk of sounding like a broken record...if I was OLC, I'd be extremely embarrased about having the Tokyo Disneyland name associated with the MK's version of Cinderellabration. It's a very miniscule version of what is done in Tokyo during their "Cinderellabration: Lights of Romance" event. As for Paris' stunt show versus MGM's, they are pretty similar in every respect but at least we have the jetski sequence that doesn't play in Paris anymore, and they took out the crowd participation element from MGM's show, except for having a kid pretend to drive a remote controlled vehicle. But just like Paris' version, a lot of talk is necessary to perform the set up necesary for the stunts to be performed. ..and to finally answer post #3, yes, they can do better IMHO, but it takes a bit of money and better production staff to make it happen. With DL's new parade and fireworks playing to rave reviews, it's still a sign that Disney has it, but they need to commit to it to make it better, and that's the problem with WDW's current live entertainment musicals at the present time.

Could someone explain to me why, when WDW is surrounded by water, they chose to make this narrow little strip of water for the jet ski to basically go from one side to the other? Why waste the effort when the jet ski really can't do anything -- there's no room!!! Anyway, yes it was enjoyable and different but would I stand in line for an hour to get in and see it again? NO
