Fans hoping to attend theme parks in Florida this summer are in for another treat as the opening of the new world of Avatar, 'Pandora' in Disney World's Animal Kingdom. The new world will include a boat ride through the luminescent rainforest, a virtual reality experience on a banshee and more. James Cameron opened up about the new section of the park, saying: "This is a place. And you can go there and walk around and see creatures and see a Na'vi and fly on a banshee. It is a bit of a trip that this was just an idea in 1995, and then it became a movie, and now it's a land… It's not a ride; it's a land. You know you've arrived when you've done a land."
