Didn't they disply a dragon head in one of the images over the entrance to the park and didn't they say something about the park regarding past, present and imaginary creatures? Now, given that the guys up the road had their own dragon-themed coaster at IOA does that mean that Disney should have given up on some kind of dragon ride or theme? Dragons are pretty much a universal type of animal showing up in a lot of literature over the ages - does that fact that Harry Potter used them now make them off-limits for Disney or others in terms of attractions? Disney didn't back down from doing a Dinosaur ride based upon the Indy ride when Universal clearly had the upper hand with the Jurassic Park franchise. From the standpoint of "legs", will Avatar really have any lasting fans that will provide a "must-see" mentality for a theme park attraction? Or might James Cameron even go so far as to add some kind of plot or theatrical justification for a theme park ride in one of his next two movies in the Avatar franchise? Soarin over Pandora? Traveling in some kind of transport through a Pandora jungle environment? Pandaora Tours? How well will such an attraction work for persons who have never seen the movie?
