    DAK Avatar Flight of Passage reviews, comments and questions

    In my opinion, it seems like everything in that building has been quite literally upgraded. Meet me in the Guardians thread.

    The Guardians ride meets at least 3 of those. ;)

    Volcano Bay

    I think the hardest job Volcano Bay is going to have is re-educating people who are used to a system like Fastpass+ who think TapuTapu allows them to do the same things. Spoilers: It doesn't. It is a virtual standby line and Express still exists. You can't physically wait in 3 standby lines...

    Volcano Bay

    The way it works I believe is that they make sure that the water temperature and the actual temperature combined never exceed 120. So 60 degrees outside and 60 degrees in the water, 90 degrees outside and 30 in the water etc.

    DAK AVATAR land - the specifics

    I'm not here on Pandora to see HUMANS, I want to see some weird plants and really big blue people!

    DAK AVATAR land - the specifics

    My issue with their being live entertainment is that anything less than a Na'vi standing up there banging the drums will be disappointing.

    iCan Robot; Out of Place?

    I think he seems out of place because there aren't any roaming entertainment characters anywhere else apart from him and Main Street.

    I can't believe they let you ride with your rose-colored seat cushion.

    DAK Avatar Flight of Passage reviews, comments and questions

    I can't help but feel that the land is already filled with references to the future movies. The village by the waves on Flight of Passage totally struck me as a set piece from a future film. And as far as re-rideability goes by adding new screens and such, I'd say that's a no go. This ride is...

    Pandora: The World Of Avatar - A Somewhat Letdown?

    Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Energy Pavilion at Epcot

    Once Toy Story Land and Star Wars open up, DHS is going to go supernova and WON'T need any extra attention for a long time, the way I see it. The way my armchair CEO brain is working is that each park needs to get something that will draw ALL crowds in. DHS has that covered in a few years. MK...

    Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Energy Pavilion at Epcot

    Are there? I feel like in this day and age it's hard to live by that idea. What was the last major non-IP attraction we got at Walt Disney World?

    Pandora: The World Of Avatar - A Somewhat Letdown?

    It's much bigger in person. They command your attention everywhere you walk in that land. Getting to actually walk under them really adds to their dominance.

    Guardians of the Galaxy coming to Energy Pavilion at Epcot

    If Guardians goes anywhere, it should be Epcot. Get rid of Ellen and Wonders of Life and use that space to put a really impressive ride that will draw crowds back to Epcot who are looking for more to do than just get drunk around the world.

    Exactly. The effects and visuals are what really sell this. An amazing ride that shouldn't be missed. Period!

    DAK Avatar Flight of Passage reviews, comments and questions

    It's nothing like Tower of Terror. If you want specifics (and spoilers), the most intense sensation I felt was a moment before the ride ends. It's at 3:53 of this video. Even then, it was just a quick dip that lasted 2 seconds and we were right back to the standard motions of the ride. The...

    DAK Avatar Flight of Passage reviews, comments and questions

    So: imagine you're in the show position for Soarin, where everyone is stacked vertically in 3 tiers. Instead of the swinging motions, which are the main movements of that particular ride, it is instead controlled rises and falls. When I first sat down and strapped in I was a little nervous...
