So what's going on with this proposal?

Is it still going to happen? Or is it on thin ice?

There were some recent rumors proving it was cancelled, but some say - It's still on.

But where is the project now?

Which he only brought up after a stockholder question. He completely ignored it during the P&R part of the presentation.

And even then, the date is laughable. The way Disney does construction, they would have had to already start to have it open by 2015.

I never even saw the movie. It absolutely does not interest me and it should! On the face of it, it seems like it's right up my alley. It's science fiction, it looks as though it's nice "eye candy" in HD, but I have no interest whatsoever in watching this thing. I even started to once and turned it off about 2 minutes in.

Scutr, i had no interest in Avatar either and finally let my husband rent it. It actually turned out to be a beautiful movie with a great storyline. You should at least watch it once, you will probably be shocked that you like it. All that aside the theme is still a bit weird and even a pixarland would feel more right.

I know, I know. I SHOULD like it, it's right up my alley, but for some reason I just have this overwhelming urge to avoid it like the plague. I don't know why.

Saw it at home and hated it. Ended up turning it off 1/4 of the way through.

I saw the film in theaters and thought Avatar was good, but not as Earth shattering as some people said it was. I will say that I liked it far better than any of the Harry Potter films. I gave up trying after I saw the first two. I think I'm not much of a sorcery/magic person. I fell asleep in an Imax showing of Lord of The Rings.

The problem with having so many films is your forget about what happend previously and you are not going to re watch really long movies over again. Well at least not me anyways. For some reason i dont mind LOTR, i ended up liking all of them and will probably see the Hobbit.



I hope Disney is really going to come up with something better than Avatarland. Then again Dak needs something more, so anything would be better than what is there now.

This. I swear, every time one of the films is on television I can't figure out which one is which. They all look the same to me.

SPOILER!!!!!!!!!



At the end, did the woman purposely kill them so that they could be together again with the mom/wife?

SPOILER ALERT

I didn't think so. She was repeating "never forgive never forgive" which made me think she remained evil/crazy ghost, in spite of being "reunited" with her dead son. And then she flashed a look at the audience in the last moment of the film, suggesting she was looking for the next victim. (A classic horror movie "The End... or is it?" finish.)
