Here's a video showing the queue and meet and greet.

Tapestry in the queue for the sisters.

Reminds me of this

I would love to check out the queue without actually having to do a meet, I dont do meetngreets since I dont have kids etc.

Meet and greets are for all ages and not just for kids. You're never to old for meeting characters.

Waterfall is functioning.

My thirty-something year old wife insisted on meeting every princess last time we were at Disney... (and I personally had a pretty great time meeting Baymax and Hiro)... never too old!

I know lol

That queue is well done. I do like the tribute to maelstrom as well.

They just did a soft open of new entertainment in Norway too. Two Viking guys Baus and Gob I think they were called? Really fun act and something not Frozen related!

From my understanding those Vikings are going to be used to help entertain the guests waiting in long lines for FEA when it opens.

Imagineers did as good a job as they could with this area. Kudos to them for making the best out of a bad situation.

Believe it or not it isn't the S-bend from my understanding, at least not primarily. For some reason there have been some issues with boats sticking after the larger drop due to some issue with "boat skids", as well as some issues with AAs (including one AA that damaged itself) and some Ride Control systems.

"An AA that damaged itself" - that has me laughing. Reports are that when they were programming the original Mr. Lincoln for the NYWF he was known to "throw electronic tantrums" and even broke the chair one time...

Hope this is the world class e-ticket attraction the entire world has been waiting for. Over a hundred million dollar budget, 2 + years construction, to one of the highest grossing movies of all time - this is going to be a game changer for the entire theme park industry.

Effective use of dry sarcasm. At least that's what I HOPE your were doing...

 

[Brian Swan]

I can't wait to see the lines and the looks on disappointed childrens faces as they wait impatiently.

Popcorn and pepsi will be ready!!

(just kidding about the disappointed children. Kinda.)

And there better be beer and Aquavit for the frazzled parents...

ORMC? No, North Shore hospital down here in Miami.

Orlando Regional Medical Center.

When I asked, ORMC was ground zero for the Pulse shooting. I was hoping you weren't in the middle of all that.

No way do attractions cost as much Disney say. Let's put that down to creative accounting / Hype.

Tell that to the head of imagineering that was recently FIRED because of the out of control budgets.

Can I ask why you don't like Mermaid? I think its a great ride, sure there could be more but I think it fits the bill nicely.

Mermaid is a text book example of bad show design. Clearly the B Team designed the ride. They appear to not even understand the concept of basic visual targeting. Which is literally "Dark Ride 101" level theory.

And I just realized you are the guy ripping Kong to shreds on another thread. I believe I'm beginning to see your biases.

You have to pay me money to ride LM.

I know you probably aren't allowed to answer this, but are the projection effects at all similar to the ones used on "Pirates of the Carribean; Battle for the Sunken Treasure" ?

I'm not Martin, but no. More like Mystic Manor.

Ok, Thanks!
