I don’t think it will. We Are One is one of the themes of Rivers of Light.If “We Are One” from Lion King 2 doesn’t make an appearance (given the subtitle of this new show), I’d be surprised.
I'm confused, why wouldn't the song we are one be used in the show?I don’t think it will. We Are One is one of the themes of Rivers of Light.
The Lion King "We Are One" song is all about family, and the RoL song which includes the repeated line "we are one" is more about our connection to nature: it's maybe not a perfect fit.I'm confused, why wouldn't the song we are one be used in the show?
I’m talking about the Lion King 2 song. Lion King 2 isn’t a well known movie like the original is. I do think The We Are One from Rivers of Light currently will still be a part of it.I'm confused, why wouldn't the song we are one be used in the show?
Now we might actually make time for it, so you can put me in the "dumb down" crowd.
When did they stop using the live performers? we were there in May 2018 but did not see them. I just assumed that is was because there were heavy rains while we watched the show. Was hoping to see them this past weekend when weather was perfect but no live performers to be seen.Sigh.
I realize I'm in the minority here, but I really liked Rivers of Light. I think because it feels like a unique creation divorced from the Disney character marketing integration machine. It's like if Cirque du Soleil did the Electrical Water Pageant.
I saw it in late 2017 and my understanding is that the live performers dramatically carrying around the lanterns are no longer part of the show anyway, but I could've watched those people all night.
I love the idea of incorporating some of the characters from the Disneynature documentaries, but incorporating the animated characters is a disappointment. It's understandable and predictable, but unfortunate.
There was just an episode of the Best and Worst of WDW where they talked about the Best Things in AK. The thing I love about AK that didn't make the list is that it feels a bit more adult than the other parks. Between changes to Rivers of Light and the dumbing down of the menu at Tiffins, it just bums me out a little that everything has to be lowest common denominator, but I guess that's what it means to run a business.
I don’t get the people saying, “oh great it’s just going to be another marketing ploy by shoving IP’s down our throats.” Everyone who comes to WDW prob likes some of the characters, or at least knows them. Keeping things familiar will help more people relate to the show and most likely enjoy it more. I wasn’t ever going to see the old version of RoL again, but I’ll see it now.
