3. Full Fantasmic of First Appearance of Fantasmic Maleficent Dragon (Murphy)! - September 1, 2009

[wirefood]

I want to go see it now, i love Fantasmic so much! The Disneyland one is more classic than the one in Disneyworld (in my opinion)!

[WhiteLioness100]

@wirefood I agree

[KayneArcheron]

AND ALL THE POWERS OF

"my imagination"

=/ really DisneyLand?

[Mr101tech]

@KayneArcheron that quote comes from Sleeping Beauty when Maleficent appears in a burst of fire and say's: "Now you shall deal with me young prince, and all the powers of hell."

So for FANTASMIC! they simply change it to: "Now you will deal with me, and all the powers of my imagination." Fits the 'imagination' theme, as opposed to saying hell.

@Mr101tech

I know the original quote, it's one of my favorite Disney movie quotations, which is why I was complaining about it.

[cristofoco]

i remember watching fantasmic in 2006 but i cant remember the old dragon

I went in August. Murphy wasn't ready... Luckily for me, I had gotten the annual pass, so i went again in October. Murphy was there!

[Eliot1701]

Thanks for posting. Wish I could've been there I am a former cast member from WDW. We don't have the awesome dragon.

[ANADucksFan12]

I'm glad Murphy is back. I'm just wondering...Did Disneyland announce to you guys before the show that the Dragon was back or was it a surprise to you all?

[Indy265]

It was announced it was going to debut through the Orange County Register.

[thermadyne123]

Sorry guys!!! Who's murphy ??

[keiliana]

They gave the name "murphy" to the dragon to go w/ Murphy's law - as in everything that could go wrong - went wrong w/this dragon. :) Was there when he made his 3rd public debut! VERY COOL IN PERSON!

[alaine93]

WOW.. fantasmic just got even better (if that was even possible). the dragon is beautiful, soo worth the wait. I would've loved to have been there. I'm going on monday and can't wait!!

[barronklee]

hope that new dragon still continues without breaking

[thermadyne123]

breaking? Is that what happened to the old one?

[KilasuYama]

When I was there, a cast member told me that the old one's neck broke off. I don't know if that's true or not.

[musicgirl999]

@KilasuYama it was true

[Mr101tech]

@KilasuYama I'm not sure if it's neck actually broke off or simple bent or something. Whatever happened it got damaged and needed repair and careful programming, hence the delay. Really hoping Murphy will be improved even more this summer, maybe even light the river on fire herself. Now that would be cool.....I mean hot :-P

[puppylover569]

@Mr101tech i have heard that that would probably burn murphy's head. also think about wut happened to the old dragon as well, like in the 1990s...

[barronklee]

yup

[fantasmicsix]

2:48 "That was huge! That's what she said."

[Indy265]

That was the best night ever! I loved the way me and my friend were excited when her eyes lit up for the first time! I look foward to actually recording it soon.

[llc101]

[FantasmicMouse]

[ooolarge]

[disneydudette96]

The crowd's reaction looks AMAZING LOL Murphy is way better than the head on a stick we have in Florida. He'll be coming soon though probably. I heard he was supposed to fly? ah well Murphy is kick ass

[angeldm0910]

ah!! Thats so exciting! I was kind of disappointed when I went during July and Murphy wasn't ready.

[fawkes1113]

YAY MURPHY!!!!!!!

[RCT3guy101]

[Triixxz]

Whoooo Jasmine! LOL

What a fun video! The dragon must be amazing live!

[Indy265]

I will remember this night! I was sitting front and center and I was screaming when her eyes lit up.

[FFGirl15]

So was I! My family and I went to the park not even knowing that Murphy was going to show up and then suddenly, I find myself going insane when her eyes lit up!

[TrueBlueRoyal]

Thanks for taping the whole show.

The crowd's anticipation from 1:18 to when her eyes light up is enough to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.
