Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Construction Discussion

^ They are really bad aren’t they. I thought he might have put them through a 1950’s color photo filter. Dreadful.

They seem much higher altitude than his usual shots. Like he did a tour of MK (which has to be higher altitude) and just stayed up there for Universal. The Site B pics are great though because it gets the true size and scope better than most of the previous shots.

He’s flying back from CA, in an airplane.

Probably took those on a commercial flight from LA.

That is my guess too. Shooting pics through airliner glass sucks.

It was very smoky the other day from some fires as well

Fact is, we really have no idea how many trains they planned to run with in the first place. There is no way to know if it has been decreased unless some knowledgeable operations manager decides to squeal.

On another note, are they advertising this new ride on TV in the local market yet? It will also be interesting to see if they advertise it nationally.

It's on a ton on TLC and other cable channels.

My guess is Comcast customers are seeing more ads for this attraction than people subscribed to other providers.

SYFY is still NBC Universal. I'm sure they're pushing for Synergy :ears:

Yep...and those HP marathonz

Hulk dispatches trains every 1 minute 15 seconds on average , Hagrids will dispatch trains every 45 seconds at least surely?

Therefore wouldn’t that mean capacity will be way better than Hulks, as long as there’s enough trains back at the station.

Don’t forget that the Hulk’s trains hold a lot more people: 32 vs. Hagrid’s 14

This ride has to work a lot harder to move the same number of guests.

There’s a chance for TM previews in the morning.

They were testing with people again for several hours earlier today.

Sorry.

People were riding earlier.

EDIT: Wait, I haven’t mentioned a date or guess in weeks? Only that a media event will be on the 11th. I may have hoped here or there.

First of all, TM previews happen when they happen. Second of all, everyone on this forum gives what imformation they can give if they feel they can. Alice has been more well informed about this coaster than other so called insiders. At this point it’s a guessing game when TM previews will start and only after TM Previews happen can we expect some form of soft opening. All this back and forth about when soft opening are gonna happen is getting ridiculous. I for one wanna thank Alice and all the others on this forum who have done an amazing job keeping us informed to the best of there abilities without getting people in trouble.

I realize you’re new, but it’s not polite to bite the hand that feeds you. Alicia is one of the top sources on this forum, and one of the least judge-mental. Respect!
