Opa! A Monstrous and Magical Disneyland Resort Pictorial Update

The Disneyland Resort held a 24 hour long event on May 24th to kick start their Montrous Summer campaign.  Unfortunately I was unable to attend and couldn't do my Friday update. I was able to visit the next day though and so I present to you this weeks pictorial...

I felt like I just watched an updated version of Disney's California Adventure's old Hyperion show "Steps in Time".  It had that same kind of feel and vibe.

    I disagree. I have seen this in person and I enjoyed it. If you dislike it, fine. Keep being negative and overly critical as usual. At the end of the day, if you don't like it, it doesn't matter. You're in the minority.

    1. How is comparing it to a theme park stage show of the past inherently negative and critical? It's an observation that a theme park stage show that uses a thin narrative to string together musical numbers from various Disney movies is similar to, well, another show that does that. Reminded me a lot of Animazement as well (including Under the Sea and Just Around the Riverbend), but with mapmakers instead of 'animators.'

      I think it's a good show, but does have some distracting flaws that could be easily fixed (lack of Lilo or Stitch onstage, weird pelvic puppet, cheap Yensid animation). The princess trio was fantastic, I could've used a couple more minutes of it.

      Thanks for your avid dedication and work on your blog, Mint. At the end of the day, if a reader doesn't like it, it doesn't matter. They're in the minority.
