I know that the first week of April but as of now they are doing soft openings
(meaning it will be open now and then through out the next few months)
But if you go in may you should be fine

I think he means B as in school grade. I totally disagree with you Matt. :P
Yea B as in school. And how can you disagree with me Frank? You've never ridden! :lol: You can't pass judgement till you've ridden. And based on the amount of coasters you've ridden at Six Flags and such, I dont think you're gonna be that impressed. It's advanced and cool for Disney, but none of the things the ride does is anything that you haven't experienced at other parks.

You have a point there. Theres 2 coasters at my park that go backwards, so its nothing new.

I rode it as well during the pass holder preview and thought the ride wad really a lot of fun. It is really like Big Thunder Mountain but it seemed faster and had a backward fall. They do a really good job of setting the mood too as you walk through the que area. The "Yeti Museum" really gets you excited.

Unfortunately, I can't see any of the images on this site, but reading the article, this sounds strange and different

if it is true I can understand why it looks fake. If it will only be on the buildings for a couple of days they won't have a real picture, so they have to have a cgi version. Maybe I will head up to New York this week to see it.
