Any soft openings before April? Thanks!
Nothing I've heard. But it's far too early to think about them.

Is there anything you can tell us about the rides that we don't already know? I feel like we kinda don't know that much about the rides, specifically the E.

WOW April of 2017? Have they made that much progress? Does anyone have updated construction photos? Might have to pool our money together and send someone up in a 'copter for some aerials...

I am hoping that in person in will be much more impressive, but all I see are green covered rocks. I realize this is meant to resemble the setting for the movie, but sometimes when viewing the pics, I wonder what the heck am I even looking at.
Like I said, maybe when standing in the middle of it, the perspective will be much different.

Picture standing at the base of those rocks and them towering at least 100 feet above you.

Do you mean tests in the working environment? Because we have already seen test footage of the material in a controlled environment.

Yes, but 1 Billion bucks later.

Looks great. Except for that one thick vine awkwardly hanging down from the highest mountain all by itself. It's like a random long chin hair. Shave it off please.
And it also appears that they plugged in the holes, or at least the hole in one side of the mountain. Can't ever tell they were there. I also like to see scaffolding coming down. So overall, good progress, and hope the rest of construction runs smoothly.

I don't judge costs unless I'm the one in charge of them.

It really is quite comical how Joe Rohde spends money. Disney was getting sick of his research trips so they started assigning him projects based on imaginary areas. So what does Joe do? He finds a way to travel to Pandora and double the budget. If Disney seriously thinks Mission Breakout will be a cheap overlay they're in for a rude awakening. He's going to find a way to travel to Knowhere, Morag and Asgaard just for kicks.
the big question is, how different will they look to us looking at them through our own eyes compared to a zoomed in lens?
I'm a bit nervous that the plans say, "10/15- Remove sticks. Hope rocks stay like in the movie."
