A little concerned that everyone of these videos I've seen, no one ever mentions the boat ride. Only: "a number of experiences, including flying on a Banshee". Though it is indirectly referenced in that brochure, and a brief mention in the intro video by that little girl, so I guess I shouldn't worry.....but why do I have a nagging feeling about those rumors that it won't be done on time.

Are these two entrances? I'm pretty sure that is a que in the bottem left but I'm not sure witch one specifically yet.
Or could a part of it be a trail?

A little girl in the ACE video mentioned the "canoe ride on the beautiful river".

Yes, I know.. i said that. lol. That's why I said I know I shouldn't worry...
It's the lack of other mentions that is giving me a nagging feeling that it might not be done on time or not be as good as I'm hoping it will be.
We should know more after the parks and resorts panel tomorrow.

That is not a dock. It is the bridge you crossed to get into into the former Camp Minnie Mickey and will be one of the 2 entrances into Pandora.

The path with the white circle will lead to Africa and come out behind the new FotLK theater.

This video makes me nervous..the guy describing pandora towards the end says "we have some experiences packaged up, including flying on a banshee"...but he never mentions the water ride. Im probably reading too into it tho.

But the intro video they play in the pavilion does mention it. Tomorrow's panel should be telling. Avatar is definitely on the agenda. If they mention the banshee ride and not the boat ride, then I would be concerned that the ride is delayed.
I don't like the model, it looks dull and nothing like the concept art. Pandora is supposed to be lush and green and vibrant. But, the model looks parched and dried out -- every time I look at it, I just want to throw a bucket of water on it.The brochure mentioned above has an overhead map in it:
Disney totally copied this brochure from Universal's Jurassic World promotional pamphlet. What concerns me more than anything else is James Cameron's absence. The *only* reason I was excited for Pandora is because of James Cameron. I can't help but wonder if Cameron is embarrassed by this. Meanwhile, Iger and Lucas are locked hand in hand.

He might show up at the Parks and Resorts panel tomorrow.
