AVATAR land construction progress

[RandySavage]

So, that becomes an interesting question: is it s a stage (for a show) or an interactive area? I could convince myself of either being possible.

Both, I'd guess. Disney likes to have these areas with drums (see Shanghai & Hong Kong adventurelands) that can also host small, intermittent performances.

Correct, there are a few little distractions planned for this land and the stage area will likely be a focal point for a couple

I wouldn't call the stage's plan a "show", but moreso streetmosphere central.

Akin to what Universal has in Hogsmead and Diagon Alley I assume?

God no. How about keeping it like it is and not diluting the park any more.

Truth meter: Sci-fi is one of my favorite spots to eat in all of the parks, so yes, I would like to keep it the way it is. I was just figuring that if they were going to reimagine it, the Star Wars concept would be a cool alternative...

This. And this.

I am glad they are keeping the river from CMM...its fits and always nice to see a nod to a former attraction area by the new one

model certainly shows trees in front of them

Definitely going to be hidden with trees.

Quick serve I believe.

It was listed as a quick service on internal docs around the time the blueprints leaked.

I was trying to be vague!

And not say I know far more than what leaked. Without sounding too cocky about it.

Guess I failed on all counts there.

Cool. I'm picturing stuff like DiVine and the Tam Tam Drummers in Harambe. I think stuff like that would be good.

Everyone knows you are a master of understatement.

I am going to need to start stalking this board the way @prfctlyximprct did with ROL. Unfortunately, I don't have her vast network of resources.

From what I have heard, all of the contractors are trying to hand over the keys by the end of Jan. Then is up to WDI/WDW Ops. to tie up the lose ends.

Oh no my stalker reputation! LOL

Right, I agree, that's what it looks like they will do, but what is actually going to be in that building? Some kind of post-show? I mean, Star Tours has a zig-zag ramp to get from the ride to the shop, too, but it's not themed.

Not themed? What do you call this?

All i'm picturing is the contractors telling all of their men "Hurry it up, boys! Universal wants to pay us DOUBLE for half the time!"
