The land will be a must see for everyone on every trip. And this is coming me. I've been very critical and cynical of Disney lately. It's so well done you'll want to bring your friends through to see it. It's not at Diagon level of immersion but it's a new Disney World classic. I just wish there wasn't so many acres of wasted space in the land with nothing to do. They could have built this with half the land and got the same effect.Do you think you will go back often or this land is a once or twice but can live without doing if packed?

No. I haven't. But I did see the exposed LED strips lying everywhere in the land. So I'm sure it's very colorful. And you can see the glow in the dark pant on the ground ready to be lit.sorry if you already said this, but did you see the land at night?
No, especially if you're taller than 6'2"Excited for the land! Actually, just excited for anything new at Disney. Hoping I can sneak in an afternoon/evening when I'm down there for work in June. Sounds like I may need to shrink the tummy a bit more for FoP. To anyone who's ridden it, are the restraints more/less forgiving than Forbidden Journey? I realize they're different type of restraints, but if you can fit on FJ, would it be safe to assume the same for FoP?
No, especially if you're taller than 6'2"
The platform that your seat is on is steel and concrete. It did not move for me at all. The only thing that I noticed that moves is just your seat. That's all.I'm a little worried about my chances with FoP. I'm 6'4" 240lbs and I can't handle the up/down motion on Tower of Terror. Sounds like I've got a double whammy going against me.
I pointed the same thing out to my friends yesterday. I was like, all this is missing is huey, dewie and louie. I don't think they changed much here.So, is it just me, or did they keep the Camp Minnie-Mickey stream intact, like completely? Just colored some of the rocks green and added weird plants...
Picture from epcyclopedia:
Pretty sure Mickey, Goofy, and Pluto were sitting on the left side of the very same bank... See my old pics below:
I love it when some of the old infrastructure is still utilized for a new theme park addition. That's the exciting stuff to me.

I don't believe it moved at all. No.The platform you're on does move up and down... you don't feel anything as dramatic as tower of terror, and it feels natural with the motion of the video. Don't think that you'll be flying off your seat like in tower
The platform that your seat sits on is Steel and Concrete. It does not move at all. Just your motorcycle seat. You can clearly see the platforms are fixed to the building in construction photos.
