Jordan Fisher & Angie Keilhauer were spotted watching HEA's return together last night.

Actually they are correct – when you projection map onto a surface, the projections have to account for the color of the surface they are being projected onto. The colors you see on the castle may not be the actual colors that are being projected, for example. HEA’s projections had to be entirely color-corrected when the castle was repainted. That process as far as we know has not happened or may never happen for OUAT.

No idea just pointing out unlike HEA OUAT never returned post Covid.

Is MK planning an OUAT Return???

Both shows were projected during the same time before the closings even before the 50th...That's on odd excuse that a paint job is the reason for it as HoE is showing fine right now...

Looks like they added new ambient sound effects around Main Street when Tinker Bell shows up.

That can’t until the 50th stuff comes down, also it would need to be modified to fit the new paint job.

Seems strange That "Once Upon a Time" projection show never came back as well...

Bumping this because it has returned. April 3, 2023. Welcome home HEA.

Same as Disneyland since 2019, rooftop fireworks were reduced or modified in older firework shows predating Mickey's Mix Magic in order to accompaning more small-sized firework shells behind the IASW and utilizing fountain equippment at the Rivers of America. Disneyland Forever (with reduced rooftop pyro) Halloween Screams (with reduced rooftop pyro) Believe... In Holiday Magic (with reduced rooftop pyro) 4th of July fireworks in 2019 (with modified pyro/fireworks)

Lasers. Rooftop fireworks are reduced.

Hi gang, I know I don't post here often, but I was at MK tonight and was heading to the haunted mansion during the final showing tonight. When I arrived at the mansion, all the location, almost all the caretakers of the mansion were outside watching the show, and totally enjoying it. Even to the point of smiling and dancing along. I know how hard this is for CM's, but I jokingly said, they were breaking character ( not in those words, but CM lingo) I told them to enjoy the show, as I went to ride. (I've see the show many times) when I came out, some were heading back in crying, and I totally sympathized with them... and I actually had a long talk with a couple of CM's saying how glad I was that they were able to enjoy the show.... In fact, alot of CM's were outside their attractions watching the show an I told them how thankful I was for them, and to enjoy the final show!! I am glad to always thank the CM's for doing an awesome job, and making that magic happen!!
