Almost everything he said was pick and choose from other videos I've watched. That was laughable.
I don't know the ride-layout, I don't know exactly what's in the ride, and I don't want to know. But that video sounded like a lot of guess work to me.

yeah same here. i mean, why would the indominus appear at the END, when it was like the biggest threat of the first film.
Yeeeaaahhh I’m not buying it.
The Mososaurus isn’t supposed to appear until right before the lift hill? The long new indoor portion is just going to show Dinos in the background? Huh?
The Mososaurus is totally going in the beginning. I’ve seen the screen on the tour. I could see a frozen image of fish on that screen. He’s just making stuff up.

Sounds like some visual assets have leaked out by the way he is describing them.
Talk about off-the-cuff dreamy dreams!
“And like, um, and yeah there is, well there was... but yeah, we’ll have to wait, like.”

Truly unbearable. I appreciate him going to the park and getting construction footage but someone needs to sit him down and explain some things to him. What boggles my mind is he will shoot "multiple takes" of the same thing and not edit the bad takes out. He mumbles and stumbles and doesn't cut any of it out which is so easy to do with VO. If he HAS to talk over the footage live then if you mess up start over, its not like this is blink and you'll miss it construction. oh man. So aggravating.
Also no one needs a 20 min video of you mumbling and guessing and just shootin the poop. Write it out, condense it, edit it. There was no reason he couldn't have said all he needed to in 5 mins.
Can you tell I was pulling my hair out? loool
I'm actually a sub of his channel, but found that video cringeworthy. I appreciate his updates, but he can definitely work on his narration.
Just because anyone CAN make a video, doesn’t mean anyone SHOULD make a video.
I lasted about one minute after I lost count of how many times he asked you to subscribe to his channel.
I really enjoy JP's videos. He loves the park and it shows. His biggest problem is that he also throws up this "insider" act which I think he should drop. When he talks about things he knows about, he's much more articulate. When he starts to act like an established insider he gets all mumbly and uncertain sounding.
Interesting take. I would rally behind on that. I totally agree that they should have restored JP to it's former glory with new state of the art AAs and more foliage.
that argument is kind of invalid to me. Disney parks are the gold standard for theme parks and they keep their classics even if they could use the space to replace them with new attractions. Yes, over the years they have completely replaced rides for new ones, refurbed some others, but at it's core, Disney keeps and tweaks a bit its classic rides. I mean, there are 62 year old rides at Disneyland running almost as they opened, the difference is that Disneyland actually upkept those rides. They have updated some, but in a very subtle classy way. Peter Pan's Flight looks better than ever and they just added some updates here and there. It's not hating change, is that Uni doesn't seem to have an identity of its own and a park that is blamed for not having a lot to do, takes its loved, classic rides and refurbishes them when no one asked them to do that. We still miss greatly Back to The Future and ET because they got replaced with subpar offerings (well, I like Revenge of The Mummy a lot, but if they could have kept ET we would all be very happy). More to the point is the recent wave of refurbs that Uni has undertaken that really have left a bad taste. The Jimmy Fallon ride is just an uninspired idea, the debacle of the Fast and Furious and King Kong "rides" in Orlando, Dreamworks Theater make me cautious. Heck, even Gringotts got some hate because to many it was a step back from the truly groundbreaking Forbidden Journey. So, in summary, it's not that I am afraid of change, but that Uni is so inconsistent with said changes. For every Forbidden Journey we get so many half cooked rides. So yes I am very afraid of what's coming for JW. And no one can say my fears are unfounded. Again, we won't know for sure until the ride opens, but screens are not loved, more so when you had an open space with AAs that could have been easily upgraded to make it work better. Time will tell if Uni got it wrong
I agree with the fact that Dreamworks Theater is a huge upgrade from Shrek, but the fact that it is still a theater with a 3D movie that's not even as technologically advanced as a 4DX Theater I have 15 min away from where I live is a bit of a letdown. Yeah proyections are kind of cool, but still, a 3D movie. The 4DX theater I have close from home totally lifts the chairs up so your feet are not touching the ground, has scents, fans, strobe lights, effects on the back of the chairs, water effects, mist, and so many other things that I am amazed Universal didn't go that route. I was fortunate enough to watch Jurassic Park 3D at that theater close home, and I can tell you it was a total blast. Dreamworks Theater is gorgeous though. They truly made an amazing building

No. I did not like the Shrek "attraction" one bit. I was not talking about Shrek being a classic ride and being replaced by Dreamworks Theater. Believe me, I think Dreamworks Theater is a huge upgrade from Shrek. I do not miss Shrek at all. All I'm saying is that we got more or less the same attraction albeit in a gorgeous building and with projection mapping. I don't care if I miss that attraction whenever I go, not because I think it's a kiddie ride (I gladly ride Disneyland's Fantasyland rides) but because it's not a very compelling attraction for me, and there are 4DX theaters with better technology than that one (minus the projection mapping)
I wonder why this keeps popping up. Comcast is a multibillion corporation. Disneyland also has AAs exposed to the elements and they seem to upkeep them very well. Why can't Uni?

Also, while dated by a few days; IU has posted a picture update from the 21st, as it gives another look.

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS ISN'T DISNEYLAND!!! Stop comparing them! I'm sorry that Universal doesn't still have every single ride that they've ever built, but Universal moves on, it changes. Would I love to still have ET? Yes! But I also want something new!
Well we are all jumping to conclusions because the ones that are worried about the ride are jumping to conclusions, so are the ones that say that they ride will be great and fine. We share opinions with the info we have available and we make predictions. And I still don't understand why people cut slack to Comcast about upkeeping their AAs. Disneyland has AAs outside and they upkeep them. Is like cutting slack to Six Flags about it being dirty all the time
Ah, the Apples/Oranges debate, how fuuuun.
Once again, I would highly suggest just editing out your posts and not multi-posting..

To post something that's contributing to JW, I have to wonder what the name will be for the cafe. Because as it seems so-far, Jurassic Outfitters is staying in the name (but is changing in appearance). It also leads me to hope of the new and exciting food options that they're making for the dining option (alongside potential alcoholic/non-alcoholic drink options).
