I am with those that prefer an update instead of a new sequel. However, tiny additions would be nice in certain scenes (more princesses, projections of early classics, upgraded effects). Fantasmic is already a DL landmark and it should only improve for the future.
However, if something different could come to Rivers of America, I'd rather not name it "Fantasmic! II" or anything like that. For me, the ideal show would be the evolution of "Remember.... Dreams Come True" (with less "wishes" stuff and more "airtime" for DL and its attractions) to become a real Disneyland Homage extravaganza, not just laser, and fireworks, but taking advantage of all the resources (Columbia could be used for a PotC scene, the rafts could carry some Fantasyland characters, the Mark Twain would help in the Frontierland tributes, special effects could generate from BTMRR, HM and Splash Mountain, and even the Fantasmic! tribute could be added this time).
It took 50 years for DL to look back at the magic of its attractions, it should not go away after the 50th celebration, yet it should improve and became a permanent attraction by itself.
As for Fantasmic! (the original), the year is long enough to keep up to two great shows in Rivers of America, so they could become seasonal attractions.
Anyway, I am just thinking out loud here, but wouldn't any one of you want to see something like that? there's a lot of footage, sounds and technology, the only missing thing is the will of WDI to make it happen.
