YES! and that RoL has been drawn into the Space thread because a LOT of the same people are haunting this new one!I was watching for our Feb trip, but I gave up a while back.
A few years ago, I followed along with a Rivers of Light watch group pretty closely. We were all positive that it would open in time for our trips. If I remember correctly, it was months and months late. It was fun, but totally time consuming to watch so closely!

(AP)--
Authorities connected with the rumored Space 220 restaurant at Epcot have reportedly leaked plans for a tele-transport system similar to the one used in the Star Trek universe. As a special booking category available at 220 days for AP holders, this "beaming" device will allow space travelers to not only eat reconstituted freeze-dried filet mignon, space suit soup, and moon dust mousse, but they can follow that with a light speed trip over to special seating at Rivers of Light. Further, Disney officials released that the Rivers of Light (or ROL) extravaganza has been transformed into a magical light saber show that takes place on Dagobah between Yoda and indigenous life forms of that swampy planet. Disney sources say that they are working on a way to keep the surcharge for the "interstellar meal and entertainment spectacular" at a moderate price point, roughly the equivalent of an Ultimate Disney Classics VIP Tour. Sources further said that guests should stay tuned for more news on Space 220 that should be forthcoming in the next several months.
Oh I was part of that madness. The thread was definitely more entertaining than the show ended up being.Amazing!!
The RoL thread was a blast. I remember people making t-shirts and badges for the "RoL watch group." The thread was almost worth the incredible delays!!

We did the dining package and enjoyed the show. But we are not planning to watch it again during our upcoming trip. DD is not interested to watch it again, but request to watch Fantasmic every time we visit. So, I think you should at least watch it once. I prefer Fantasmic too!Thanks for this info. Just out of curiosity, what did you think of the River of Lights show?
welllll ... in the interest of being 100% honest .. DON"T KNOW! We rarely stay in AK long enough to even try to see it. I find that park to be overly busy even on a quiet day and we're gone before dark most times. This year was different though because i had to see Pandora glowing!Thanks for this info.
