The snow effect is what I am really excited for as I have never been in L.A. to see it done at DL and always wanted too . Besides, its the ONLY time people from L.A. and Hong Kong can experience snow .

Although some say it's a bit "tired" in the US parks, since HKDL's primary audience is one to which Disneyland and Disney stuff in general is new, I think the MSEP would be great. It's just the kind of thing that Disney does so well that's hard to find elsewhere.
