By far one of my new favorites. Stunning and elegant

I love rivers of light if you are in the right seats. I am just all for that park being open later like the rest are. They could however mix up the show a little bit for Lion King with maybe a new song or two, it's getting that since I've seen it so many times, even though it is awesome, it's getting a little tired.

Well at least now the stilt walkers can come out more than twice a day in Pandora! ;)

I hope they add Up characters and some Rivers of Light inspiration to mess up this show too.
