I see that the Magical Moments page haven't been updated yet and the parade is having an impact in it, when is the parade kicking off with the new show stops?

First videos of the parade with the new showstops are up. They don't seem to be working all that well (no suprise really, we know Europeans prefer to watch).
But there are some nice new costumes, and the boys in blue (in front of Dreams of imagination) seem to be sticking around.
I don't really like them, because the performers are playing with the kids, it takes away from the overall experience for everyone else, as they aren't doing a routine  :(

Thanks for posting. I like the original stops better, but I think some children will have fun joining in, and I expect Mum and Dad will enjoy watching them.

I agree too, I like to see the performers do their dance, especially the princesses with their princes. (Also the Mad Hatter / with cards =P  )

Some videos of the extra performers. Not sure about the blue coat people up the front, I prefered Chip'n Dale and Pluto!
The bee's are nice though. Why did they have to mess around with something that was good! If anything needs messing around with, it's Fantillusion. They need way more CM's on that parade than what there are.

I agree. I understand how these interactive sections cane tbe too strictly routined, as who knows how the kids are gonna react to it. I feel like they've missed a beat with these - i think the Prince/Princess one, very cute, but the others and very general, and are a missed opertunity for something a bit more unique.

Would it have been too difficult to work in new music to each of the stops? Or some of the masked character's talking?

The show stops appear to be great if you are one of the kids selected or their parents,excruciatingly boring for everyone else, imagine trying to explain to your kid that they are'nt one of the "lucky ones" and the repercusions of that! At least at character meet and greets you can wait your turn,but this is just so random that it is bound to lead to heartache for so many children. Bad bad move.

Stilll thinking about what to think about the new show stops( where is Belle... ;) ) As a mother I would love to see my child dancing with a prince... or anyone else. As a spectator,  I don`t know yet. Maybe it gets better seeing the whole parade..
...should I maybe teach my daughter the waltz?   ( I`m still thinking here...)
Anyway I`m looking forward on going in October

So dissapointed, yet again the older audience is left out/forgotten about.
I just think they look so tacky and plain now, the older stops looked much better.

At least it's only for a year. They might improve as the year goes on.

Hopefully during halloween there will be no show stops again. I'm not impressed with the show stops. Obv I would be excited if my Daughter was chosen but I can obv see the other point of view. So please no show stops for Halloween.
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow,... You're always a day closer to my next Disney trip!

I don't like these 'interactive' showstops. I definately prefer the 'old' showstops, especially with the Disney Princesses and Princes. Their dance routines were so magical! Love the new outfits for the performers though.
