    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    Yeah for sure, I wasn’t saying I was gonna keep sending emails everyday or something. I was more saying the more people that can send an email/message/twitter post the better because the truth is that 1 email from 100 people makes a much larger impact than 100 emails from 1 person.

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    Even though my twitter has just under 100 followers, the tweet I tagged Unviersal in has gotten over 100 likes and 10k views so at least a good amount of people are seeing it. I think best we can hope for is we just keep complaining and maybe they change it. I think they’re banking on the heat...

    Jurassic World VelociCoaster - General Discussion

    Yes, partly in reference to that February closure but mostly to the fact that this was the most efficient people eating coaster ever built and it has consistently had wait times longer than Hagrids in the last month or so. I’m guessing not being able to run 4 trains is the issue but why can’t...

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    I wrote a lengthy email to the guest services email provided but also made a short post on twitter tagging them and made a very short complaint via Facebook messenger to their official account. If this is to be believed, then it is still technically in “testing.” I’m not sure I buy that though...

    Jurassic World VelociCoaster - General Discussion

    I haven’t been on this thread recently but what are the rumors at least as to why this ride has had so many issues in the last few months? Is it a problem with the Trains? Track wear and tear? Something else?

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    I would like to make my formal complaint with Universal guest services about not liking this removal of 3d. I also want to give them a list of all the recent things they’ve taken away for cost cutting to show it’s not just a problem with this ride. What am I missing in this list? Removal of...

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    Yup. Just despicable they are pulling the wool over our eyes with this “test period” We all knew it but still disappointing nonetheless. 3d gone forever. Once they said they had recorded new audio that was the sign they weren’t going back. The no surveys on ride exit was second thing...

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    So was Saturday the last day of the “test period” or was it yesterday? I’d imagine some people will report today if the 3D has returned or is gone forever.

    Future of Jurassic Park River Adventure

    I rode this week and can confirm the ultrasaur is back and moving quite well!! As we always say with this ride it’s like fix one thing, another thing goes down. Both Parasaurs missing. Fighting compys we’re fighting over nothing because the shirt fell off on of them. The 1st raptor still...

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    This 100%!! Disney keeps those really old dark rides in tip top shape. Better than some of their “newer” rides like Dinosaur and Splash Mountain before the re-theme. I’ve always thought ET should be UNI’s crown jewel retro attraction. Keep that thing in immaculate shape to show they care...

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    One of the comments suggest they’re leaving it closed because cutting that portion cuts 60-70 seconds off the ride, thus increasing its hourly capacitor by enough that Uni wants to keep the outdoor part closed. There is no way that takes 60-70 seconds. My guess is 20 seconds max.

    Future of Jurassic Park River Adventure

    It’s scary and I find it odd too that no insiders have heard any plan which means they just seem to be content letting it rot. Haha, that’s my tweet! A few posts ago in this thread someone mentioned about calling out Universal and anytime I’ve ever asked them stuff like this on Twitter this is...

    Future of Jurassic Park River Adventure

    I rode yesterday and as mentioned above, the Ultrasaur is still gone. Wonder if he’s ever coming back. Seems like no for now. 1st parasaurolophus missing and second one stuck above water. 1st raptor does charge which is good, 2nd one has arm stuck behind its head. Dilo’s neck fans weren’t...

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    So I did a post in larger Facebook Universal group to basically get a poll and most responses said it was April or before when it worked last. Seems to have even down for April and all of May and then at least 3 different people said it went outside in June, but anyone that went recently in...

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    I know this thread has been dead, but this ride has not been going outdoors since May. Anybody know what the deal is and has anyone heard anything about when they might fix it. Kinda getting worried since it’s been so long.

    Revenge of the Mummy Refurbishment (Late 2022)

    What’s the status on Brendan Fraiser? Is the cup of coffee clip still at the end?

    The Future of Lost Continent (Poseidon Fury closing May 9)

    How hard would it be for them to bring back the show with maybe a few tweaks? I know it was essentially cut because of low popularity and cost but with the parks raking in money and so busy now, could be an easy thing to take in a lot of people. It seems like LC is staying put for now so why...

    Future of Jurassic Park River Adventure

    I will say on our trip last week the T-Rex was looking as good as ever. She was moving well and the jaw was working. I would disagree that they let it go because they did fix the box effect at the time VC opened last year and worked on the Ultrasaur. Sadly the box is already not working and...

    Future of Jurassic Park River Adventure

    Totally agree. Even if they have to close it for like 6 months like with Mummy, it would be worth it to replace/repair the AA’s. ET does need some love too especially since it seems like it’s gonna be around for a while. Universal seems to really be embracing its history, legacy, and...
