They say that at Disneyland anything is possible.

In between he critiques the pacing and content, but overall his review is positive, unlike your viewpoint of the show, which is all wet.

Although the original show had a lot of great technical elements in it, it always felt like the end product was less than the sum of its parts. Although I haven't seen the new one, it seems like it may have also gotten bogged down in the attempts to rely on video footage and awkwardly scripted transitions, rather than the fountains themselves

The floats were pretty incredible though, and the whole thing was really well done.
