Jurassic World: The Ride Construction Thread

[smoaT]

I think they under-weared it a bit so that when it wears naturally from the torches burning it and weather, sun, etc, etc, it won't look dingy or in bad condition.
It won't take long for the weather and torches especially to start putting a natural wear on it.

I hope because I can't really put my finger on it, but it looks odd

Any updates if they put the Jurassic World logo sign up last night? It looked to be all ready to go.

Boom.

Boom.

Can’t wait to see all the comments of people complaining that the sign sucks.

:drool:

Wow. The inclusion of the mural and the sign on the show building is so visually striking that it’s hard to believe they never thought of something similar when the gigantic structure was going up 25 years ago. So much empty, wasted space is now filled in beautifully. Plus, I prefer the blue to the previous salmon pink. It all just really pops. I’ll always miss JP dearly, but they’re really doing some special things here.

Boom.

Y'know, it never occured to me just how big that damn sign is; wow.

I love how the last two-three pages of this thread was about disappointment for a sign.

As William Shatner once said, "Get a life." :grin:

Personally, it all looks fine to me. Admittedly, I'm not really a fan of Jurassic Park/World as a general franchise, so I don't really care all that much.

Boom.

Now that is absolutely beautiful! Love the different layers. I can't imagine anyone complaining about this sign.

 

[bigclown94]

Boom.

This put the biggest smile on face for today. I'm hoping June 8th they're soft opening

Boom.

Holy Shnit she's a beaut! Wow that building finally looks in world and she is gorgeous.

The showbuilding sign looks really good!

 

[WJWS]

Such a great addition to the showbuilding I really like the look of the archway signage, too - much better than in the earlier photo.

Starting to feel more like a land now.

Okay, I'm so renewing my pass tonight. A soft opening/AP early access feels imminent.

That aside, my god, it's beautiful...it's already breathtaking in the video. I can't wait to see it in person.

 

[Jamesh22]

WOW. I really hope the rest of the ride is as amazing as that sign!

Admittedly, I'm not really a fan of Jurassic Park/World as a general franchise, so I don't really care all that much.

Going to have to ask you to leave after that comment

 

[Jaden]

Boom.

Its.... its..... beautiful.....:'(

For those saying "It's just a sign..." It's like saying the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Nevada" is just a sign. For most other signs, I'd agree, but that sign and the Jurassic Park/World's archway/sign is iconic as they come. It prepares and excites you for what's to come. Imagine coming down the Starway and seeing it in the distance, getting bigger and bigger as you approach. Then standing right in front of it, gazing up at it and feeling the hype. It creates a sense of awe. There's nothing wrong in hoping that the way it looks is nothing short of inspiring. I mean, people were complaining about the color of the water and cement in the Hagrid's coaster thread, FFS.

 

[AlexanderMBush]

What drives the new sign home with me, is just how great the main show building now looks.

Especially when you have the logo sign paired with the amazing T-Rex mural, it feels a lot more complete than before. I honestly can't wait to see how the area looks at night, as I hope Universal goes all out in that regard.

Renewed my pass, but not going until Monday. Hopefully I should be fine. :x
