Yeah, but can you get a You Shall Not Pass! pass or will it be virtual?

Man this is hilarious. Universal is really giving it to Disney. But people shouldn't take any of it seriously, it's just fun ribbing!

The two technologies are actually quite different.
Ninjago uses commercial-grade Leap Motion technology and you can buy it on Amazon for under $200.
It's limited to simple gestures and mostly tracks the speed and direction of your hand movement and shoots your virtual fireballs accordingly. Your aiming is limited and it's mostly about moving your hands back and forth as quickly as possible to kill the lego people.
On the other hand, Web Slingers is using Vision AI to track your entire upper body, arms, shoulders, head, and face movements with a camera using the latest Deep Learning vision technology. Something similar to this but far more sophisticated:
It can track your full upper body and react accordingly with much better precision and no need for sensors or controllers. Unlike Ninjago where you are just swiping your hands at 100mph hoping to hit something, you'll be able to point your arms in the direction you want to shoot and it will shoot that direction in a 3D space. It even looks like you can reach out and touch objects in the 3D space.
When I look at this portion of the Tom Holland video:
It seems as if he is using his hands (down to his individual fingers) to weave around a web.
Here are snippets from various articles I've found online:

Disneyland's New Avengers Campus Lets Fans Sling Like Spidey

Disneyland's Avengers Campus lets you sling (virtual) Spider-Man webs from your palm
Disneyland Parks gave us a sneak peek at California Adventure's superhero-filled Avengers Campus and Web Slingers: A Spider-Man Adventure attraction.

I've sat here for months and kept quiet about this ride being a Ninjago clone. It is a bit of an insult to the hard work being done in the vision AI industry (which I work in) where I get to work with the latest tech from the likes of Intel and Nvidia and I think you will be far more surprised at the level of tech on this attraction in comparison to commercial-grade Ninjago.
If you want more details on how the ride plays out, how to gain points and work with your teammates, the Marvel article I posted above goes into that detail, but for those who don't have the time, here's another important snippet:
Can you pull doors off of containers or grab onto objects with your hands and move them around in Ninjago? No.

Wow. Haven’t read any of that stuff on the tech until now. That sounds very promising and exciting.
"Additionally, the “webs actually allow you to not just blast spider bots but interact with the environments. You can pull doors off of shipping containers. You can activate conveyor belts. You can grab onto things and move them around. The level of control that you have is amazing.” And for those players who are looking to unlock hidden things you might not find the first time, “There are so many fun things to discover along the way, layers, and layers, and layers of gameplay for our die-hard gamers, and layers, and layers, and layers of fun for comic fans, just really leaning into all of the details that this world has,” Strong hinted."
yeah i had not heard this either, that sounds really cool

Haven’t you heard? Avatar is the highest grossing movie of all time.

Yeah but its just one movie. We don't know yet if the sequels can make people interested again after more than a decade. Marvel is still going strong with their hit shows on Disney+ and Phase 4 movies coming in the next few years.
On the other hand, look at what they did to Frozen. The highest grossing animated movie of all time and they can't even make a land or an E-ticket ride. What Hong Kong and Paris is getting should have been built here first and should have been built years ago.

Nice. I'll be looking forward for the ride POV on the 30th and the rest of the land of course.

Thank God. They can’t even get the Frontierland gate right. Do you know anything about that? Do CMs talk about these sorts of things? Or are you more of a rare breed? Also please disregard anything I said on the DL reopening thread. I followed all the rules.

Disneyâs Avengers Campus is selling a $100 sandwich â but there's a more expensive item on the menu
The pricey sandwich will be available starting June 4 at the Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure Park

Wouldnt it be cool if instead of GotG themed for the ToT they went with a more generic non IP themed city building that could fit in beside the campus building and also blend into the hyperion/art animation buildings assuming they also got city block style facades. And then it could be an avengers based ride, you could have like 6-10 different missions in it, all with different avengers and you dont know who you will be helping until the ride doors close. Maybe the facade/entrance/lobby could be dr strange themed because he has cool artifacts and his "portal" powers could be used as a transition to missions all over the universe. That would be cool. Like like how smugglers run was supposed to have multiple missions.

Yeah I did. I saw it four times myself in the theater lol. But I thought Avengers Endgame beat its box office though?
Either way its no doubt MCU is the biggest franchise of all time now. It USED to be Star Wars but that has fallen to #2 (still not too shabby
