News Round Up 2018

[Harry Wallace]

So for someone who is directionally challenged, which is which? I assume the closest two are EPCOT and DHS and then MK in the distance on the right?

Magic Kingdom is on he far left corner (you can tell because of the circle around 7SL and the huge fireworks)
Epcot would be middle (I am guessing because you can see a lot of the low fireworks through the trees that illuminations use)
DHS would be on the right (guessing based on the others)

DHS and Epcot could be the other way around though lol

Ah, ok so that is the later part of the show when they were using the wide spread fireworks at MK and why they are all similar height

Makes sense - thanks!

Loved the video of the MK fireworks on the 2017 thread.

I watched a live stream and it looks really cool. The industrial vibe is big throughout. They have live entertainment. It definitely is more adult friendly than kid friendly. I have not seen any initial reviews yet.

Besides the film (which is now pretty awkward), any word on what’s changing?

Upgrade to digital projection vs. film and the ending scene are the only things I have heard changing.
