Whoa that's really a difference from the before and after. Amazing.

Thanks for the video! I agree, the 25th Anniversary would be amazing to see!!!

I get what he's saying...but he's also the one who said he was only going to release films set in the Avatar wold going forward. Avatar was released in 2009 and there is still no Avatar sequel. I think it's yet to be seen if his Avatar movies (if he ever finishes making them) will all be drastically different from one another.

[/QUOTE]

Yes - it's true. But also Cameron has almost made entirely hugely successful (and mostly quite good) movies...so I hate to assume new Avatar movies will fail.

One thing that gets very little mention is that they are actually only shooting two of the movies, and then depending on how those first two go they shoot the other two.

Also, anyone know a way to recognize store employees at the Disney Stores not at the parks/resorts? There is a girl that works the store that is amazing to us every time we are there. We'd like to somehow give feedback not just on a store survey.

Yes! You have two options:
Call (866) 902-2798 - This will go down a long chain until it reaches the store manager. The store manger will decide if it the kudos will be placed in the employees personal file.

Your best option is to write your own "Great Service Fanatic Card" which goes on their permanent record and at Disney that is VERY important. Please be sure to write ^ in bold so there is no confusion of your intent. If you have a photo include it. Here's a link to the email address:

You can also use social media for immediate kudos; facebook, twitter

It's very nice of you to go above & beyond - kudos to you!

Thank you! This girl is awesome. She makes us feel like we are at the parks when we are at our awful little mall.

How wonderful! We have a store here in MI a bit of a drive but the employees do make it worth the trip!

Wow! They are really early with announcing the bands for 2018.

 

[Teamubr]

Avatar was released in 2009 and there is still no Avatar sequel.

It's only been 9 years. That's like 24 months in Cameron time. We still have 4 or 5 years.

I know I have said to myself that I don’t know if I would ever want to go back to EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival, but Mercy Me on the schedule now has me very interested in going just to see them.

I guess that’s the consolation prize for not having the Night of Joy.
