Except Jorah calls her Khaleesi all the time.. not 'my Khaleesi', etc.. and that's straight from the books. The title is as you say, but they use it as a direct name as well.

Yeah.
It's like he is calling her "Princess." You wouldn't address her like, "Hello, the Princess."

I'm not sure if we've spun back into agreement here with my original point regarding: "Where is Khaleesi!!!?"

You'd say 'where is "the" princess', not 'where is princess', which was the original context I had brought it up in.

I agree that addressing her directly as Khaleesi as done by Jorah is appropriate though, but not really what I was getting at. Just trying to clear up the fact most show watchers don't realize her actual name is Daenerys.

I didn't mean to turn this into a big Song of Ice and Fire/grammar nerd-fest, but I approve regardless. :p

So does the dragon have any movement to it at all, or does it just breath fire?

Design looks fantastic. I just hope some parts of it move somewhat (even if it's just the wings and tail a bit).

Surely it must have some movement, at least at the tail or the head. I can't imagine why they would go through the trouble of putting it up there and making it so detailed just so it can puff out a little bit of fire every now and again. As good as the rest of the area sounds, why make the kind of misstep that would diminish the focal point of the whole thing?

Disney is better than universal you jerk, stop making unfair comparisons to new fantasyland. My kids love barnstormer and toon town. Harry potter is a stupid fad. You're a stupid jerk. You just wait til disneys flight of the avaitor land opens. My kids hate you.

You left out mouth breather, fan boI and at least 3 more stupid jerks to sound authentic.

Having said that...

I think I may accidentally get stuck in Orlando next March when I'm in FL for work.

OMG, that dragon looks amazing! Universal is getting better fast. I know it's probably not fair to compare this to the Mine Train, but I was a bit underwelmed by the Mine Train when I rode it, and everything I have seen concerning Potter phase 2 looks mindblowing.

Between The Roots playing at Mardi Gras and the new Harry Potter stuff, I actually got a Universal AP. I still have my disney one as friends often come and want to go to epcot but UO got my money for the first time this year.

Not sure why everyone has to compare A vs B here... Mine Train and Gringotts are not the same level. It would be like comparing HULK to Barnstormer. Or Splash to Hippogriff...

BE grateful there is an "arms war" between Universal and Disney. The more Universal succeeds, the more Disney will need to step up. And to be fair, it's better for all of us. Because the place we like to visit the most wil have more awesome attractions than before.

So stop comparing Apples to Oranges. NFL is not a comparison to DA... Universal would have built DA no matter what Disney did, and visa-versa for Disney. Neither were reactionary to the other.

Considering Universal is on track to add a new major attraction every year till 2019... while 2018/2019 is the earliest we can get something non-Avatar at WDW.... not much of an "arms war" to me ;)

Didn't avatar get announced shortly after potter? If anything Disney is showing that they prefer to deliver their apples at a very slow rate while their oranges aren't even sprouting saplings yet.
