This can't be a massive build right? Fake rocks seem to take forever, but a theater is pretty conventional.

Yeah, the current one is a pretty simple structure, really no detail on the inside or out. The plans for the new one show what appears to be the exact same structure.

No...you have a sense of humor. Someone screaming at the birds in a city park has issues.

Those details, were they all to come to pass, would be exceptional.
I have to admit to not understanding the speeder bike ride system as Jim was describing it. We've been hearing bike coaster but what Jim described sounded a lot more like a screen-based motion simulator. Is it a mash-up of the two?

This reference went totally over my head - I only liked it because I concluded that it was offensive.

What Jim Hill describes is a simulator like Soarin'. Sadly i'm not surprised because why bother building a thrilling coaster ride or something with eleborate sets and animatronics when you can just put up some video screens.

That doesn't mesh with what others have said who think it will be a bike coaster, similar in format to the Tron coaster planned for Shanghai but with a Star Wars/Endor theme. It would be build on the IJ stunt show area, which is a big enough plot of lang to accomodate a typical Disney type coaster.
That said, if they were to build a screen type attraction it could easily be something where the ride vehicle moves around a la Spider Man and be quite different from Soarin'.

YEAH! Or like a motion simulator like Star Tours ... wait ... oh crap.
They sure as hell better come up with something NOT screen based, we already have our screen based SW ride.

Apparently this is what they pitched to Cameron for avatarland and that's why got ed and the project isn't going anywhere right now.

I could see Cameron not going for it but to me it's not a big deal, I'll take a Soarin' 2.0 in DAK, its not nearly as egregious as having two motion simulator screen based rides in the same land for the same property ... that's insane.

We know jack about the Star Wars E Ticket. Speeder Bikes on Endor sounds cool. If you have seen the movie, 150 mph through a forrest is not anything like Soarin. Simmer down.
How about we just leave it at that.

It is like Soarin when your just sitting on a motion simulator with wind blowing in your face while you stare at a screen

I agree that sounds awesome ... I also agree that we know nothing ... BUT the way Jim Hill describes it is what I was responding to.
