I would agree, but ask 100 random people at the gates what attraction they are looking forward to most and I seriously doubt a single one will say HOP.

Incorrect. The leaked blueprints labeled it a C-ticket (Na'vi River Journey) and E-ticket (Flight of Passage)

Buzz as a B made me raise my eyebrow, Big Thunder being a D made me stop dead. If any big coaster at WDW is a D it's RnRC. It has the thrill but is also full of plywood cutouts. Also, Haunted Mansion? Seriously?

There's some more too. Maybe start a new thread in General Discussion to finally make a definitive WDWMagic list of what attractions are what tickets.

I tried to do that once with attraction "scariness" and everyone was saying DINOSAUR was the scariest thing ever. Scarier than ToT, even.

Surfing YouTube for anything new and came across this video, again.
In case anyone's interested in the giant model...

The original meaning of each ticket was literally the price they felt like charging. Everyone wants to turn it into something more than it was. It was literally just a pricing system.
Now that system is long gone, and so there is really no meaning to the word E-ticket, but everyone still uses it for nostalgic reasons. Disney defines their rides based on, I don't know, whatever the heck they want to. Clearly, if a boat ride can change letters so often, it doesn't mean much. It's just supposed to express some sort of statement about quality and intended popularity, and maybe rattle us all up in the process, like it has been.
So whatever you all want to define an E-ticket as is fine. I don't care. You're not wrong because there is no right answer. And it's certainly not worth arguing over.
This would make a good addition to Spaceship Earth. The narrator reads "For centuries, humans had looked to the dictionary for the meaning of their language. But soon after the rise of discussion forums, communication takes a turn for the worse. The term E-ticket is completely undefined, which creates endless arguments over its meaning and prevents all useful discussion from occuring." The show scene would probably involve multiple people with their heads buried in their computers, rapidly typing and then exploding into random fits of anger.
I'm kidding, but really, this is making communication here far more difficult. The crux of the problem is that when people try to categorize and "rate" the rides this way, many disagree. Not because they disagree on the quality of the ride, but because they disagree on the meaning of one damn term, and it really prevents any useful conversation.

I'm disappointed that we haven't had any pictures leaked about the progress of Avatar. We got a bunch at once then nothing.

Most of the pictures we were getting were from one angle and there wasn't much change from one update to the next. Without aerial images it's a hard project to watch.

I heard they put up more trees and shrubs to cover everything as well?

Not sure why they would bother at this point.

Who knows? Maybe it's because they want to hide it more like the tree of life.
