After being home for a few days now. I have been reflecting on my 6 visits to HHN. I really think this has been one of the better original houses in a long time. I love all of the set design, and the masks and makeup for the scareactors is really good! I think this is a really solid house, and I...
I think Pandora's lighting sets the mood of the place very well. Even if it is a little dark, I think if it was any brighter, the black lights would not work as well to light up the pathways. But I will say that it does feel darker than the river journey, but then again. The outside areas of...
This is very true, I have a very vibrant editing style. So it might not be completely true to life. Plus the long exposure does make the night shots look better too. But I still think the area looks fantastic once your eyes get adjusted. I just think its because they are going for that Bio...
Just wanted to show a couple of cool comparisons I did between Pandora during the day, and at night!

That's what it looked liked to me too, I didn't have my big lens that day or I would have tried to get a closer shot. But the concept art does show what @AliciaStella was saying. So we will have to see!
Well the hill is completely gone now! The Demolition is almost out of sight now...
This was taken today.

I agree with everything you are saying! I do think that the blame is on the Pro Slide Engineers. I am just adding on, that I think if Universal had more realistic deadlines. That this whole weight issue would have not been over looked.
Like I have said though, this is just my opinion. I am in...
Dude calm down, you have your opinion, I have mine.
If you think that the slide's problems doesn't have anything to do with the rushed deadlines. That's fine. We don't have to agree.
While I do agree with the fact it was on pro slide to engineer things accordingly. I still place the blame on Universal, you said it yourself. "Pro Slide didn't have the guts to tell Universal no". So in my eyes, this should have been thought of, and engineered way before the Volcano was built...
If you want my honest opinion. I think that it is terrible that these slides are such a low weight limit. I couldn't ride them anyways, because I am just too big, and I am not normal size. But I would say that the average adult weighs close to 200 LBs. This alienates a lot of people, and I think...
Yes, what ever you do, just make sure you tap in Krakatau as soon as you can. Plus on the side, I recommend that you hang out in the Fearless river while you wait for your times to come up. It is a lot of fun, and it makes the wait time pass by very quickly!
Took a few photos today, not as good as Bio's pics from above, but a little bit of working being done :D

Being optimistic is the only way to be honestly, but I feel ya! I am going to miss this show a lot!
Nothing official, just some rumors about either a James Bond or Jason Bourne themed attraction. So we will just have to wait and see what comes next. As long as its not Harry Potter, I am...
Got to hit up the last showing of T2 today. It was fantastic! The audience was electric, and it was just an awesome showing of one of my favorite shows ever! I hope that all of you got to do the show at least one more time! I am so grateful that I got to be there for the last showing! If you are...
