The fireworks show sounds like it is going to be unbelievably amazing. I'm more excited about it than ROL, but then again I'm a Star Wars nerd. I'm disappointed however, that I finally convinced one of my non-disney friends to go on a trip with me, and we will be there the week BEFORE April 4th. I'm wondering if we moved it to Memorial Day (the other weekend we were considering) if the new fireworks show would have started by then. I probably wouldn't consider moving it for the other stuff.

I agree, the current Star Wars fireworks show is good and this is even going to be better.
 
Come to our park. There's hardly any rides, but we do have a pretty fireworks show at the end of the day!

Sounds like a nice plussing actually, and I assume the fireworks show will benefit from the new launch pad they're building. They just need to get the actual park sorted out now.
Yep, that fireworks show should be the first to use the new fireworks launch site.
 

The comparison I was making wasn't to Tokyo because of Disneyland...

What I was saying is the Chinese economy is In pretty big trouble...their manufacturing growth/expansion is now looking like they may have mortgaged the farm...much like Brazil.

What I meant was that the Chinese government could change/lose the ability of propping up a failing park in Shanghai...

Remember they built a multi year hoax for 2008 Olympics...it was all a sham...and they are notorious for paying people "just to live" or "just to work"...they may not have the economic muscle to do things like that forever.

Actually they could prop that sort of stuff up for a very long time. It's one of the advantages of being a semi-communist autocratic regime. At that point however the money earned in China might not be worth very much anywhere else.

Hopper this is not a direct reply to you, just the DPB article.

"And starting this summer, fans won’t want to miss the grand debut of a new Star Wars fireworks show, “Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular.” This new nightly show is the next generation of the current Star Wars-inspired fireworks show. The show will combine fireworks, pyrotechnics, special effects and video projections that will turn the nearby Chinese Theater and other buildings into the twin suns of Tatooine, a field of battle droids, the trench of the Death Star, Starkiller Base and other Star Wars destinations. The show will be punctuated with a tower of fire and spotlight beams, creating massive lightsabers in the sky. This new show will be the most elaborate fireworks display to take place in the history of Disney’s Hollywood Studios."

...I'm sure I'm in the minority here, but holy English class Batman! Didn't anyone ever teach this person to not start every sentence with the same words?! It's great news and all, but just reading this paragraph made my head hurt.

Maybe they were excited too :jumping1: and trying to get it out there fast!!! and didn't proofread it. Been guilty of that myself, but then it's not my job.

To be fair they did actually vary it a bit. "This new nightly show", "The show", "The show", "This new show". Not great but not really a full on grammar faux pas.

The important thing is that we all understand it's a show!

Semantics. It was close enough to make me twitch. I think we get that it's a SHOW! Lol, how could you not, after that? Still, a thesaurus would be helpful.
 
Is it wrong to hope this Star Wars fireworks thing is going to last through the end of the year? I don't want to get my hopes up too much but this would seriously be fantastic to see.

I'd be amazed if it doesn't at this point. They're clearly spending money on this.

I know enough not to say anything to my son one way or another, but I'd rather not disappoint myself too! I'm already kinda bummed at how much has been closed so this would be a very nice addition for sure.

They are building a new permanent fireworks bunker and launch site for DHS. I think fireworks are now going to be part of the long term plan.

They're also going all in on advertising DHS as "the Star Wars park" so it's a pretty safe bet they will be Star Wars fireworks for the foreseeable future.
 
Come to our park. There's hardly any rides, but we do have a pretty fireworks show at the end of the day!

KInda true of course, but this will be top our list when open, over any ride they have at least currently.
