Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

Not going to lie but I'm not at all looking forward to this thing but will it be heavily themed or will it be naked with some bits and tat around it?

 

[Teebin]

They seemed pretty interested in the foliage.

Hm... perhaps they will bail many of the trees and plants and stage them down on the south property for use when the coaster project is completed.

Well themed in Triceratops Encounter area, more bare in front of Discovery Center.

Thank you, so that includes the (lift)hill, am I right?

Launched no lift hill

Now there's a thought. If they're pulling out some foliage anyways, might as well reuse them!

Launched no lift hill

I think I've said it before...but aw yiss. Launched is my preferred method of acceleration.

 

[Alicia]

And I believe the big launch will be themed. Maybe a tunnel? Maybe.

Depending on the tunnel, it might be getting a bit close to the Hulk launch. But there's a lot of theming that could be done to make it similar in tech, but different in experience.

 

[tielo]

So it will be launched up one single big hill and that whole thing is themed?
Wouldn't that look silly without context.

 

[Alicia]

2 launches I believe.

I think this time it's going to work!

Honestly, Universal practically gives away a JW overhaul is coming here



On another note, does anyone have a decent shot of the HP show building as visible from JP?

 

[JungleSkip]

I wouldn't read too much into that

 

[Scott W.]

Our River Adventure doesn't have sight line problems though.

They need to paint a JP logo or something on the backside of the HPFJ show building, then it wouldn't stand out so bad.

River Adventure might not but the land as a certainly does.

Walking through the arch from the HP side is embarrassing.

Strike that, just put a 360 screenz tunnel from the arch to the Discovery Center
(yes, yes, a screen of trees)

We can now control the weather within JP! No more guest complaints about not warning that it was going to rain today. Job well done.

I can add that IF all goes according to schedule, RE should move to the temporary location no later than 2/16.

And just that quickly, 2/23 is the latest target for the temporary RE location. Stay loosey-goosey, kids.
