Walt Disney invites fans to visit what might be its most interesting and ambitious theme park yet – Pandora: The World of Avatar
Us at SFF Planet are always eager to explore strange new worlds (unless they’re inhabited by face-sucking, insides-gutting aliens). Happily, Pandora, the world which was born from the imaginative mind of director James Cameron.
Truth be told, one of my regrets at seeing Cameron’s Avatar, back in 2009, when it first came out, was that the plot and the characters got in my way for appreciating the wonders of Pandora. I would probably have settled for a 3D experience of that world, but to truly walk in anything resembling that planet – that I did not see coming. Then again, in a computerized rendering of Pandora, I wouldn’t have to be accompanied by armies of noisy people (with or without children), but hey, one can dream.
The video below invites you to get an inside look into the making of the theme park, which is to be titled Pandora: The World of AVATAR. When will all this goodly out of this world experience be available? Well, technically, it is scheduled to open this coming summer to Disney’s Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort. In reality, much like in space travel, all of us ordinary folks will probably have to go into a cryogenic sleep or something before all the stardust clears and we could visit visit Pandora. What I would REALLY like to do, though, is be there when Avatar 2 comes out in 2018!
