Pandora: The World of Avatar Announcement, Construction, & Preview Discussion

Yeah, I agree with BriMan. We're equal opportunity moaners & complainers..

Just some info tidbits - internal transfers "late spring" for a summer opening.

Also, it's themed to eco tours of the planet and how the environment gives us hope for saving our own planet.

Also the sorta monkey flying squirrel hybrid things are kinda cute.

I shall be checking it out when I am there in Oct as long as nothing stops its opening

Well it's not like it's a projection show they've based an entire marketing campaign around. Lord knows those never work out.

Now the real question is raised... will it get delayed? :saywhat:

 

[GadgetGuru]

That's...earlier than I thought it would be. That puts it like two weeks after the media event right? Short soft opens.

 

[amityboattours]

Right kids, with that May 27th opening date in mind and people's (much better than my own) history of how far in advance softs typically happen in mouseland, what's peoples best guess for when this sucker will be accessible? (DISCLAIMER - I'm fully aware of the 'nothing is guaranteed' etc reality of softs)

It'll open in some form, for sure. Will all four theaters be open? I dunno.

May, complete pessimistic guess.

I do think you are safe. The only hang up might be if they want to keep it under wraps and do a dramatic grand reveal for the press event to get maximum impact

I thought media event was 22nd - 25th?

 

[twebber55]

may has been my guess for a while

...Is it just me, or am I wanting to say that Memorial Day Weekend will be a battleground of the theme park industry for this year?

Come on man! Let's be fair... Volcano was a little less than 2 years

It's going to be a busy summer in Orlando.

Time to shut the attendance decline thread and open up the attendance increase thread.
