Yes it is "smaller" than previous shows and not quite as ott, but it ticked all the boxes and delivered exactly what it should- pure Disney magic. I cant believe people are actually bad mouthing it, is there REALLY anybody who thought it was TERRIBLE?!!

Does anybody know if she flies around the World?
Originally Posted By Mickeymouseclub I just re-read that . I meant she only flies for real around the castle at DL and prefers to show herself having more fun with DL guests. She does fly around the Worlds but must be saving her energy Good for her and good for California. If anything the Florida guests should be complaining. Not California. Of course most of the guests in Florida have no idea.

Magic Kingdom may have a mediocre flight of Tinkerbell, however the music and pyro is on par, if not, better than at Disneyland. I mean, come on, what beats 360 degree fireworks? lol.

Originally Posted By TMICHAEL >>>So is Aladdin just a stage show? <<< umm YES, if not what else is it? Disney has been putting stage versions of their cartoons in the parks for decades. Aladdin had a large budget but for me didn't add anything worth while to the film experience. >>>Or Peter Pan just a dark ride?<<< again, YES, if not then please, what else is it? Any more questions ya little pixie dust snffer? LOL! So back to the topic: RDCT was a terrific fireworks show for the 50th. But that's all it was, a fireworks show. Magical is a good fireworks show and something different for the summer. Better or worse is all in the eye of the individual but once again, it is just a fireworks show. And this time around, the hub is not a CC mess.

Originally Posted By Ursula I saw Magical from a side view and I wasn't terribly impressed. And yes, I LOVED Remember like nothing else. It could be that I am comparing one to the other. One was longer, had a storyline, and was emotional. The new one is dull, no storyline, and (once again, no surprise here...) I HATE the music. I'm just not a fan of boiled down elevator music. It has no soul. And I only got to see the backside of Dumbo. SO, I do need to see Magical again, but this time, it shall be from the front of the castle so I can really view it. Would I go to City Hall and complain? Probably. If I paid $X and got Remember and now I'm paying $X and get somethng smaller and less enjoyable, yes. I enjoy Kool-Aid but I don't gulp it down.
