Hopefully it will stay like this, when we go in April, current schedule is Fantasmic 830 and Star Wars 900. No way to do both and it really annoys me, it had to be on purpose. Would love to be able to do both. Keeping my fingers crossed.

They've also begun starting Happily Ever After a few minutes early and it started the same time that the Star Wars fireworks got pushed back, so I wouldn't be surprised if the two are related.

This has already started. It was on this new schedule for the past two weeks. I just thought I was out of the loop. Very handy though. No need to rush out of the end of F! anymore. They also open the backstage path as usual, but they have a fork near the end. One path leads to the exit, the other leads to the firework viewing area.

Good. Few things are as annoying as half the crowd leaving during the last five minutes of Fantasmic. We'd sit in the back and leave right at the end and catch the Star Wars show without any issues, but it will be nice to have more of a buffer.

I HOPE that's the reason! If not, someone should find out the reason and fix it!

Did notice on the wonderful @bioreconstrut's photos of SWL and TSL construction photos some work on what looks like could be gas line area. Perhaps the work could be limiting gas supply and thus flamethrowers temporarily off? Jan 14th (zoomed in and from what I can see it looks like a gas main, plus the fenced off area adds credence, plus the generators are probably natural gas as well so appropriate location with some construction around the existing line, probably tying in for SWL): Photo: clip from photo from bioreconstruct on Twitter Jan 26th (area still dug up) Photo: clip from photo from bioreconstruct on Twitter

Hmm it’s been 3 weeks now without the flamethrowers.

I was there today and the new firework effects seem to be there but just the flamethrowers weren't working.

This doesn't sound good!

Can confirm I didn't see any fire of any kind this weekend. Bizarre too, as the weather was outstanding. Show really missed those couple moments.

If it is weather related, they should label it as an alternate version, like what TDR does. Same with ROL if it keeps having big issues So we all know that WDW isn't losing it! Thank God they haven't touched HEA! If they do.. Something needs to change!!!!
