The music and fountain show are some of the best in WDW in my opinion...goosebumps the entire time I'm watching

Does anyone know if the fountain is still there and if it still "performs" with this music?

It was performing last time we were there in December of 2011. We were never very close when it was going off so I didn't notice which music was accompanying the show. I have always loved watching the fountain too

Fountain is still there with the same music since at least 05.

Thank you! I was worried...didn't want to look forward to it so much and NOT have it either be there or be the same music!

Trust me, it isn't going anywhere for a very long time.

That sounds like a challenge, where did I leave my jackhammers and lift crane?

Parked out in the new Fantasyland

Go for it. Of course, when you do, you'll have a ton of fanbois on you like white on rice...

I've already got their distraction.
Hey fanboys! They are going to make Oswald the Lucky Rabbit talk!
That should get their loins frothing.

Seeing as how most of the fanbois (spelled wrong intentionally) know Disney isn't doing squat with Oswald, you'll have to try harder than that.

Clearly you are not that big a fan...
Aside from a 2010 video game, they've plastered all the old characters all over DCA's construction walls (a possible attempt to pull them out of public domain)
Call me when you become a fan of Disney stuff, you Universal fan!
I think this is where someone yells "Oooohhhhh.... Snap!"

Ok... So I don't pay much attention to video games as much as I used to.
And yes, I've seen that they are using Clarabell's name for the ice cream shop, Mickey's first name (Mortimer) for a market, Horace's Pawn Shop, Oswald for a gas station. Isn't that the point of the theme for the new entrance of DCA? Set in a time when those characters (aside from Mortimer who became Mickey, of course) were still popular.
As an aside, didn't Oswald have a voice already (or two or three). Most famous voice he had was Mickey Rooney if memory serves. I don't see how this would rile anyone up...

He's had several, but in the previous game he didn't have audio and they are using a different actor. I think they might have recorded some for the previous game as well but scrapped it when they only released it on the Wii (since their format is gimped).
Considering how angry people get over paintjobs at the parks, it doesn't take much to get their panties in a bunch.

This was my point from the beginning...

And my point was that it's quite easy to distract them while stealing fountains.
