My point was that the GP isn't going to get hung up on the technicality that they haven't given the original a proper house.
It just seems so random that they put up stuff for it a week early - doesn't seem like the kind of thing that really needs much setup.It's for a large park buy-out on Wednesday, 10/16.
The problem with the thing is that the prequel kind of soured a lot of people from the property.
And we had the prequel house already so people might still remember that
The remake house had sets that were basically the same as the 80s movie.
Looks like Stranger Things has been closed for a bit tonight. Wonder if Milly is still there, and they’re filming something in there
For how long?
So tonight I watched Supernatural for the first time in five years. I'm not going to bother with seasons 10-14, I'm just watching this final season for some closure to what's been a major part of my life--the first five seasons are my favorite show ever.
I get that TV show vs. special event in theme park is an apples and oranges comparison, but I'm still amazed at the stuff they can get away with that would result in a public outcry if ever showed up at HHN. The most obvious example is angels and demons--the angel that told Mary she was pregnant is (was, I guess) portrayed as a playboy who makes adult films. Yet, HHN was forced to remove any references to angels from The Fallen. They apparently made the ghost of JOHN WAYNE GACY a character--nowhere near long enough ago like Jack the Ripper. Also the rights issues with Bloody Mary don't apply to TV shows I guess. Kinda like how Chernobyl would be acceptable ONLY if it's via Stranger Things.
It's so unpredictable as to what's "safe" and what isn't, and how that can change with the medium. Once again, this is one of many reasons I don't want an increased house count. They're going to have to mine for more ideas, which inevitably increases the likelihood of someone being offended.
Its kinda how south park and family guy does jokes that are pretty pretty outrageous but no one ever says anything. Kinda weird
So influential was this cartoon deemed that the President waded in. During his 1992 election campaign, George Bush railed, "We're going to keep trying to strengthen the American family. To make them more like the Waltons and less like the Simpsons." (His wife, Barbara, called the show the "dumbest thing" she had ever seen... then later apologised.)
I think y’all are missing the point. No one said it’s an impossible property or anything, it’s about as likely as most other big Horror IPs out there. We haven’t seen a NoES or Friday the 13th house too recently either. But that doesn’t change the fact that the property has been done before, even if the original movie itself hasn’t. That’s the point we’re getting at. The GP sees The Thing and thinks snowstorms, grey science bases, and Cronenberg alien monsters. No matter how different the movies may or may not be, The Thing house we got before is very similar to what we would get with a new Original movie house.I don’t believe any of this matters. A house based on 1982’s The Thing can drive marketing and check off the classic horror box for IPs. Most of the people who currently go to HHN, myself included, didn’t see either iterations of the property.
I mean, c’mon, they did the same exact AWiL house twice within three years, and the freakin’ Walking Dead five years in a row. They can do a house based on the 1982 version of The Thing by now. It’s fair game.

Still listed as closed now. So, around an hour at this point
