    Edited to move video of Kong to appropriate thread.

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - Reviews, Photos, and Videos

    Here's the first video I saw - one of the first after softs started. Of course, it cuts off *just* as the truck passes through the gates...

    A lighting issue? That's the sort of thing you can fix in an hour...

    ...if so, that makes sense as to why we're seeing delays in soft openings. At this point, it's way too late to remove ride vehicle AA's, change pre-rendered 3D video, soudtrack, etc. However, changes could be made to the hydraulics (motion of the vehicle) and... ...in order to tone down the...

    Today's Mako Madness video... Not much new... Impatiently awaiting the spoiler thread...

    Looks like they're testing with riders today.

    Where are you getting this assumption that there'll only be two vehicles ready to roll on opening day?

    That first point is demonstrably untrue. Take a look at their recent 10-K / annual report. Their theme parks aren't anything to sneeze at, but they're so ridiculously big that their theme park revenues (and income) represent a very small slice of their overall business. What is notable is...

    While I'm certainly not saying that I've seen those mysterious blueprints floating around (wink wink), I would say this is missing a little detour, amirite?

    I pecked that entire think out with my beak, including some pretty complex math by owl-standards. I rate my last post at least an eight out of ten.

    I think your math is a little off there, my duder. Check it: I think it makes sense to look at scenarios with both five and four trucks running. It's likely that they often have at least one truck in the back for some sort of repair / maintenance on a cutting-edge ride like this...

    Anybody else peepin' a not-so-lifelike driver wearing aviators in this shot?

    Owl bet my nest that the intros aren't that different. Nothing substantive will take place before entering the temple. That time will just be for setting up the backstory (expedition, the driver character) before stuff hits the fan inside the temple.
