Overview
- Riders report blurrier, less vibrant imagery on Avatar: Flight of Passage, with some describing grainy or dull 3D effects.
- Fan commentary is directly comparing the presentation to Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey’s long-noted screen and projector wear.
- Universal’s ride opened in 2010 while Pandora debuted in 2017, creating an expectation gap that has fueled sharper criticism of Disney.
- Coverage notes the issues are technically solvable through replacing projectors, recalibrating systems, and related maintenance, but no repairs have been announced.
- Both attractions are still praised for thrilling motion and strong storytelling despite the diminished visual sharpness.
