There's a Hammond Memorial statue in the Innovation Center in the Jurassic World film:
You guy's are lucky then, USH has serious CRT rep in the JP queue (or atleast, as how I remember).

Alright. Gyrosphere concept.
It relies on a narrative device used in Dinosaur: remote controled vehicles. The RV is controlled when it goes through “dense environments” (jungles/caves) for the riders safety, but “released’ in open areas.
There’s a lot going on with this. Imagine a Doombuggy with a full “glass” front that lowers to form your sphere. That sphere is on a gimbal on a track, and then ramps down onto the ground (a grass-covered conveyer that gives a practical rolling effect) while a dull flickering light effect makes mimics the rolling on the grass. The track pushes you through some brush and into the first projection sphere.
Yep... this is basically a variation on Forbidden Journey.
The projection spheres are interactive. The sphere and video rocks back and forth while the video (a VR environment) swoops with you. At the end of sphere, the rider releases control to go back through a practical jungle with progressively bigger dinos.

I'd imagine the Discovery Center would be updated to the Innovation Center if the land is going to get a full change from JP to JW, no?

I was able to ask about the Jurassic expansion and what I heard, goes along the lines of what some others have said here. I got word of a next level coaster as a new Jurassic Park ride. He said this thing is supposed to be insane. Remember, I’m just spreading along what I hear and he tells me not to post anything he tells me. But since the coaster thing is already flying around in here, just thought I would add to it.

woahh, I would dig a next level coaster. While this new HP coaster seems great, the ride system doesn't seem to be anything new. I would really love a coaster that fills the two dragon-shaped holes in my heart.

Honestly a Gyro Sphere would be a cool Trolly in the Sky type ride ( I know it wont happen) circling a new JW land. Dont need an Indoor dark ride with screenz.
Thanks.....:thumbsup: You have a good history of accurate info postings.

Launched flying coaster confirmed?
Trackless? That would be wild!
So, we're getting a drone coaster with a catapult launch?
