Last year, I saw the MK show on 7/3 (as they now do it two nights) ... they call it 'Fantasy in the Sky' which is really a very bad choice as it isn't the old Disney fireworks show. It's largely patriotic music ... mostly military themes that I kinda feel are out of place but ... and feature the almost perimeter fireworks. It's nice. But doesn't feel me with the WOW feeling I get at Epcot. Have never seen the Studios Fourth show so can't help you there.

Also, i've heard that MK is reverting to full 360 for this year's show, and it will be the last MK "Fantasy in the Sky" 4th of July because it gets a whole new show next year.

I'm strongly considering parking my car in cast parking at Epcot and just walking to MGM. From there its a pretty fast drive over to the Cirque lot.
