    Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit

    If you guys also get an Intamin Fast and Furious coaster, I’m gonna be one salty Angeleno.

    Studio Tour

    Yeah I'm still having a hard time understanding what happened. I can picture the guardrail and I don't quite get how hitting the guardrail would necessarily cause an accident of this scale unless a speed factor involved, as well.

    Probably won’t be the only time they do it, especially if the movie is a hit — and it’s looking like it will be.

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    I think your points are valid, I just disagree with them and I'm explaining why. I'm sorry you feel like people are ganging up on you; I'm certainly not trying to antagonize you, and I apologize if I did. I think we need to lower the stakes here a little bit and try to avoid knee-jerk responses...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    Maybe they can and will, I have no idea. My argument is it's still not a good fit, regardless. I can't speak to the quality of the Beetlejuice house because I didn't experience it, but as a property, it seems pretty similar to Ghostbusters or This Is The End, which weren't good fits for all the...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    Like I said, it comes down to tone. I acknowledged elements of the material that are horror-adjacent, and I understand that certain encounters and environments in the games are probably eerie or frightening, but those things don't make Fallout definitionally or primarily horror. You're just...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    Based on what I’ve seen from this show, and what I know about the games, Fallout isn’t a fit for HHN. Yes, it’s violent; yes, there are monsters and quasi-zombies. But the tone is not horror. And before anyone says anything — I understand it’s massively popular. Popularity alone doesn’t make...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    I don't think anyone is disputing that Resident Evil is popular in North America, or that it would be a popular attraction HHN, but it's clearly far more of an institution in Japan, which is a fair point to make. Also, the movies did well enough, but to say they "made a killing" is a huge...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    A lot this comes down to taste, though. Which we all have. There's never going to be an individual who's 100% satisfied with a lineup, especially among our crowd here. We're more invested in this event than the average person, and we all have our own likes and dislikes when it comes to...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    I don't think event is getting same-y, especially compared to the competition. It's considerably less same-y than KSF and FF, who do literal repeats every year. I know that trend is changing a little bit at HHN (Killer Klowns, Holidayz, etc.) but it's not like we're getting the same exact houses...

    WaterWorld

    I saw something kinda like this almost happen once -- it was during the pre-show and the Atollers were doing their bits. The actor playing Sage was focusing on this guy in the third or fourth row because he was really hamming it up with them, playing along. It was funny. After a few bits, Sage...

    Horror Movies Thread

    This is a fair point. Relatively speaking, it’s not quite the same case as the more egregious examples we’ve seen. That said, the filmmakers also had plenty of time to rectify this misstep as the AI issue grew, but they didn’t, which (as the kids say) is pretty sus. The filmmakers have an...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    Bringing back Urban Inferno after so long seems kinda weird, but then again they did the same with La Llorona and it killed… I still think an Exterminatorz house is as close to a lock as we have, just based on track record alone.

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    I don’t see them expanding the concept this drastically. That’s usually not how these zone-to-house iterations go. When Holidayz transitioned to a house, most of the set pieces were exactly the same as the zone, just indoors and with some expanded scenic. My guess is an Exterminatorz house...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    I’m kind of excited, but I’m also wondering what an Exterminatorz house can do that the Tram didn’t already accomplish?

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    Again, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that their sources are these boards, and other boards where the rumors are discussed openly. We don't use codes when we reference them, so I don't fully get why they're doing it. If it's just to have some fun, cool! But anyone...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    Not trying to be argumentative here, but I sincerely cannot remember a single house these maps have ever revealed that didn’t originate as a rumor either here or another online community. I’ve always viewed these maps as aggregates of the rumor mill, not necessarily a source of rumors in and of...

    Halloween Horror Nights 2024 (USH) - Speculation & Rumors

    I don't understand why they're using symbols. Isn't this map just a summation of what gets rumored here and elsewhere? We all know what the rumors are, there's no mystery here. Unless it's a worry over finicky rights-holders?

    Super Nintendo World - Hollywood (General Discussion)

    Yeah, I would guess a lot of those second-level areas (as well as all those exposed animatronics) weren’t designed to anticipate LA turning into a rainy city. Drainage could turn into an issue if we continue to get this level precipitation year after year.
