That show building sure is growing though! I read somewhere on here earlier that it's expected to be close to 2 acres.

wow, that's enormous!

2 acres is huge, but I got to admit, when you see how big of a chunk it's taking out of SWL... and if SWL is 14 acres, I would have estimated that it's 4 acres.

And to think it's also two stories of ride! There's gonna be so much ride time!

I sure hope so. One thing I don't care for in Radiator Springs Racers is how much space gets used up so quickly with light theming. That's what happens when you are in a race car rather than crawling along in a pirate boat. If Battle Escape vehicle are essentially Mystic Manor vehicles, then yes, we should have good ride time and good detail throughout.

From Marni. I'm on a Pandora blackout, but it seems people are very pleased with the FoP queue.

Via Flights of Passage we've seen the direction WDI can go for elaborate queues and multiple preshows.

Wait for the SWL Battle Attraction. Very elaborate. Very long. Fully immersive, a story that tells itself as you progress and one or two very clever tricks. Including one I don't think that has been used before the main attraction before.

It's getting bigger every day!

It's incredible. I actually wanted to spend more time in there.

There may be better ways to post this but Google Maps has made an update to their DLR image so we can see a slightly dated, but still fairly recent map of the enormous size of this area.

Hmmm... I still only see right before groundbreaking:

You may need to turn off 3D mode.

You may need to turn off 3D mode.

Mine hasn't updated yet either (3D or not). Google tends to roll out updates in waves sometimes, so some of us should check back later.
