Photo update as of Tuesday, May 12. A third piece of curved framework has been added on the right side of the structure, not clearly visible in the above photo.

A closer look at the steel structure to the left of the main building (a little overexposed).

AGGGHHHH I want overhead pics stat!!!! haha

 

[DisDan]

yea I would love another illegal drone fly over right about now.

The reason to remove it is because it blocks access to a huge area behind Kali River Rapids.

Kali blocks access to the huge area behind Kali. It wouldn't be missed by most.
Really, we should get back to Avatar.

At least this gives you some scope
People look tiny next to it

I understand what you are saying, but it seems to me that Kali could be extended by going north or east (the latter would require moving the perimeter road) without touching Maharajah.

Or just level Kali and start over?

 

[RSoxNo1]

I would hate for them to touch Maharajah. It's the best zoo exhibit I've ever seen.

Thematically it looks great, but am I the only one that prefers Pangani?

They are both very well done, but it just depends on the animals a person is interested in.

I prefer Pangani as well. I feel like I see more animals on that trail everytime. Maharajah looks super awesome though!

In this video he mentions floating mountains 50 meters high!? Idk if he was just throwing a number out there, or not but I know he has been working very closely with the Imagineers on this project!

That was the first time I have seen this. It just gets me more excited for it to open!

Certainly taking shape since the last time I saw it in person in early January.

How new is this video? I have never seen that interview before. As if I couldn't get anymore excited about this project. On this it is clearly stated by Landau that there is both the simulator and boat ride. Also mentions floating mountains that are. 150' tall, with emphasis on the water falls coming down from the mountains.

They also talk about how they are launching books with more stories about Pandora, along with the launch of the Cirque show - clearly working to get the public awareness going again by inserting this back into the cultural zeitgeist. A smart move on their part.

Man do we ever need some overhead shots.

I love Amur tigers, so for me it is no contest. That gorilla exhibit is pretty spectacular, though.

Ever since the tapir passed away Maharajah Jungle Trek has been weaker... I'd love to see Red Pandas in that area.

Disney World not Disneyland.

And boy does this dispell all the myths and memes from a few years ago.

Biggest attraction ever attempted by TWDC.

And the proof that this is not floudering in the development process.
