OMG STOP! After all of that, only running for 3 years?! I guess Disney wants to bury it. Lol
Yikes... well....
So....they spent more years developing this show than it will actually run?

Yes it's Jim Hill but yes he has been right before. Reminder this is the Disney Rumors and News board and we can discuss these kind of things.
Can they not change it sooner than that? I saw it for the first time a few days ago and it was probably my last time to see it. I won't waste a fast pass or the time waiting in line for a show that doesn't really impress me.
They are going to want to try and make money off of it first. I haven't seen it in person but I find it to be a good show in that its original and true to the park's vision. I think many want flashy bang bang firework type moments and that's not this show.
I disagree but let's stop there.
It's definitely not your typical Disney show. It's conceptual and doesn't have pyro. Personally without seeing it in person I think its a great fit for AK.
I did like the fact that Disney tried to make an original show rather than rely on Lion King, Pocahontas, A Bug's Life, etc for Animal Kingdom. If there weren't so many delays and issues, a filler show that was thrown together last minute, and awkward previews cutting 1/4 of the show, I do not think RoL would be receiving such harsh initial reviews. I think it was hyped too much and independently operated GPS floats do not cut it for the guests when the projection wall cannot be mastered like it is in Fantasmic! which is about 20 years old in HS.
My dad and I were just reminiscing about it when we were at Epcot last month - we both thought it was one of the best parades they've done. I remember seeing the shed where they kept all of the costumes for it while I was there too. Anyway, to each their own!
