As long as there is at least one anamatronic Kong that blows the yeti out of the water I will be fully satisfied.

yeah that's how I feel. If they have at least one giant animatronic in the ride it would be enough to make me happy.

Maybe Kong will pick you up from the top floor and put the jeep down on ground level again trough a clever drop mechanism?

That's a throwback to the old ride...I love it! Could be achieved through a rising platform

I wouldn't expect harsh drops in this though...remember..family ride

The idea of a great movie ride RV going down a 90 degree sheikra drop is just hilarious to me

Maybe the show building has 1 or 2 major scenes with animatronics, and the rest of the show building houses a giant ferris wheel type device. Except it lifts the cars and a 360 degree screen which would give them a larger capacity allowing multiple cars to be in the main part of the ride. Also this would solve why the show building is so tall.

I think we're over thinking this, what if one scene was just a really big show scene! :P

Whatever the show building design and facade might be I can't wait to see some models and artwork!

Perhaps the facade, and whats' visible to guests, might be taller than the majority of the show building?

My big worry is that you'll be able to see the show building from Dudley. BTW they added bamboo themed work walls around that area probably hinting at it

Basically sums it up. Hate probably knows a bit more than I do, but from what I've heard, I'm comfortable saying this will be better than Gringotts, and may be the resort's new Flagship.

So based on that, it will be thrilling but tame enough for the entire family to do? And Beautiful as in the concept design will be astounding?

I don't expect it to have a height requirement, but I don't know enough about the ride system to make that call.

It will be a breathtaking attraction. A lot of capital is going into this project

That's a big name to just throw out there but I'll take your word for it. I'll raise my excitement level to 11

Mark my words, and I mean remember this statement for the rest of time. Nothing to do with fandom or bias in anyway, shape, or form.

"This attraction will leave no doubt, and will crush as well as embarrass the Avatar E ticket of 2017"

This ride will be the ride...

Here's my question to you, do you think this one ride will be better than avatar's ENTIRE land not just the ride?

The entire Avatar land will be one ride. It's my understanding the dark ride has already been dropped off the budget. That leaves one ride, a gift shop, and a counter service restaurant...the same as Kong.
