Total joke... (If it weren't restricted space... Then we'd have more video 
). I understand the desire for the "first impression" but wish we had more behind scenes content from parks. Even though I'd like to see more than we did, even the little pieces for NFL were nice to have.

Truly not trying to be a "Doom and Gloomer" here, but they cannot even keep the tiny mist feature working on the tea train coasters in EE.
I was going to say even if they add mist enjoy it for 6 months

I can't believe how awesome it looks!!! I can't wait to see them without the scaffolding blocking it!

Actually, a lot of progress. It's nice to see the detail of the mountains without the scaffolding around it on the second picture. Very cool. Can't wait for more pictures above and inside the barriers.

Wow. Significant progress on the vine work...Can't wait to see how the illusion works when the scaffolding is down.

Will this definately open in 2017? Or is it just a 'best guess' ?

I think at this point its just a best guess based on what appears to be done and what still has to be done. The general consensus around here is that earth day 2017 is the goal, as that would be the park's 19th birthday. I feel like everything would have to go right for earth day to be the opening date, so i'm expecting more summer 2017.

Just from looking at Disney's track record with opening dates for new attractions, I would put my money on June 2017.Thats like the peak of summer. In my own personal opinion I don't think they want to have it open any later than that. I say another full year of construction and it'll be in business. They could hold off until 2018 for Animal Kingdom's 20th anniversary but why have a land just sitting there for a year after its completed?
Disney has confirmed this will at least open sometime in 2017

Disney also confirmed Rivers of Light would open on April 22nd, and we all know how that went.

No clue what the guy was saying but it was pretty cool to see the birds take down that drone. They should definitely do that at WDW. They already have some birds for Flights of Wonder.

It would be interesting to see another aerial shot of the land to see it's coming along. The building and the floating mountains look beautiful. Now, there will be all of those little details throughout the land that will take it another level. I assume there will be walking paths throughout the land that will count as attractions. Very excited to see it when it opens up. AND it will give us an idea of what might be coming in DHS regarding SWL.
