Any update on the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe set at MGM?

We're tenatively planning our next WDW for May 2006 and I'm hoping, hoping it will still be there then. Is there any CM reading these boards who knows anything about the dates?
Thanks!

Okay, I am totally ignorant on this one. I saw the preview for the movie but can't remember the release date for the film. Is the set there now?!?!? We were pretty excited about the movie because, I read the entire serives outloud to my 7 year old son which was really pleasant for both of us. What a terriffic series. We will have to check this out on our upcoming trip, we leave Sept. 27 . Would love more info....

Is the set there now? When I heard the movie was coming out I thought it sounded like a good idea - I loved the books. But when we saw the previews, we all looked at each other and went "WOW!!!" If it's as well done as the previews look it's going to be fantastic! The photography/scenery looks as beautiful as LOTR, and it looks to be as grand and epic, if you know what I mean. I'm really excited about it now!

So, somebody please tell us about the set?

The film is out December 9th. I would have thought Disney would liked to have the sets up by then. I'm going at the begining of November and would love for them to be open then. I know that Disney are promoting the film during the Nights of Joy (have I got the name right?) I would imagine the sooner they can get the sets ready the better. This is a big venture for Disney, as this could be a huge series of films for them. A Harry Potter/Lord of The Rings type success would to a lot for Disney.

The trailer blew me away completely....a very well read book when I was younger. Looking forward to it so much.

Another family of fans anxiously awaiting the film, here! We're going to be on a Disney cruise the week it comes out - anyone want to guess if we get a sneak preview on board??
That would be awesome!

I just read an online blurb that said the set won't be up in Disney until "2006". I agree with a previous poster - wouldn't it make more sense to get these up before the movie comes out - to highten the hype?
