Woah boy. Just when I thought I'd be able to give the ride a try, as @yulilin3 had been so helpful in reassuring me. Looking at that amount of movement, I am pretty sure I would not be able to handle the "drops."

Not sure if anyone replied to you... I'm doing DVC and AP previews tomorrow. Both preview FPs are showing in MDE. I recieved a separate email for each preview.

How did you book. Is it on DVC or AP. I might call because it sounds like you only got a reservation for yourself and not everyone.

My granddaughter is 6' and really looking forward to this ride. Have any of you 6' women had any experience on this ride. Her 6'7 father said he will perfectly fine if he doesn't fit. We will be there the end of July so I hope Disney will work out some of the size issues.

Yes, we did the 6-8 time frame and we started going in at 4:55. Very quick and easy process to get in. Definitely recommend going straight to FOP if your FP says you can. Don't wait. We were first 100 people in probably and waited maybe 5-10min to get on the ride, but after doing the ride, eating, and going through standby line to look at everything we saw the line and it was very backed up and probably at least an hour wait. The ride FOP is easily best ride Disney has ever done and probably best one I've done out of every amusement park! Na'vi river ride was good but nothing special

Don't get me started on the one hour before your session NRJ FP issue. And we'll have to deal with it and explain it for the rest of the previews because everyone attending has one.

Me, do you have a 6 to 8 preview?
Guest, yes, but I have a FP for 5pm on NRJ, so I'm here early for that.
Me, actually that's not a FP for NRJ, it's just there so that they can scan your MB in order to enter Pandora. You'll be given a FP for FoP when you enter and NRJ is usually a walk on.
Guest, what, I don't understand.
Me, you're not alone, at least half of the people in line don't either.

Multiply that scenario about 100 times per CM working the line before each session.

I watched the video and I am surprised at how much movement there actually is. TBH I've done FoP twice now and I don't feel that much movement, I am sure it's because the video is synched perfectly with the movement. Watching the video I got a little queasy but living it, it feels nothing like all that movement.

So the land itself...

It's nice.. It's not the spectacular that everyone is saying. The outdoor areas is much smaller than I expected and makes hollywood studios look huge.

Dang disappointing. Appreciate the honesty and feedback though. I assume you mean at night as well.

There is some stuff you can tell is going to be for performances. For example a large drum in the drum area. my really high up camera happened to be able to peak in and it looks like an animatronic will be popping up to play drums with you... the animatronic itself was not there, but you can tell it wasn't meant for a person to stand in. So I guess we will be getting some navi aroudn the outside areas

These 2 confuse me. Did you not understand it is an expansion and not a full park? It is about the same size as New Fantasyland. so of course it is smaller then Hollywood Studios.

The drums they have said will have performers. They will not be Na'vi though they will be "professional plant drummers" as the LA Times crew put it. We played around on them.

I'm not saying you have to like the area or think it is great just saying making sure your expectations of size are correct. It was never suppose to be bigger then Hollywood Studios.
