King Kong Speculation Thread

[jtsalien]

Everyone keeps referring to this as an E-ticket, but I'm honestly expecting it to be more of a D. I'll happily eat those words if I'm wrong though.

Everything that add can't be an E. If everything is an E, then nothing is.

Regardless, I feel like it'll be a better ride than Disaster, so that's a plus.

Kong is classic universal no way it will be a D

There is nothing wrong with a D-ticket. Jungle Cruise was listed as an original D and I think that attraction is a lot of fun. D-tickets bring in guest too. I'm just saying I always considered Disaster a high end C and solid D at opening. I definitely think it'll be a high end D.

Very true! Little Mermaid is also an example of a high end C/solid D... but it's just that the way everyone is sounding, this ride seems like more than a C, especially with the way Comcast is these days.

I agree Jake, that Universal needs more D tickets, and C tickets for that matter! Kang and Kodos is a step in the right direction but they need more small attractions like that to give the parks kinetic energy and atmosphere.

No doubt that it will be an E ticket. What type of dressing do you want on your "words"? LOL

I wonder how much Universal is freaking out that this leaked out there.

Nice to see a park that listens to its fans, the fans wanted Kong and Kong is what they shall get.

Well done UNI.

Now... where can we fit a new version of Jaws?

Right by MIB :rofl: lol but maybe Jaws and BTTF could come back... definitely not impossible now, especially BTTF since they have drawn up plans for a BTTF coaster in the plot between MIB and Springfield!

But from the sounds of it, this won't be Disaster when it's all said and done.

Worst. Tour guide. Ever. Lol

If we got the original I wouldn't be disappointed at all. I mean it would be a huge upgrade over Disaster.

This is supposed to be a new take on this combining aspects of Kongfrontation and King Kong 360.

Would Peter Jackson be involved in this at all? Or is it a different/original take on Kong?

This is supposed to be a new take on this combining aspects of Kongfrontation and King Kong 360.

Basically what they do best, blend physical sets with project technology

 

[PWT]

Worst. Tour guide. Ever. Lol

For the record the actual guide is a very cool dude, lol.

If it's like 360 but has more themed surroundings and an actual AA King Kong or two I will be more than satisfied! And btw I love the idea of the entrance having King Kong on top of the Empire State Building. Maybe the ride can be somehow based in Skull Island and New York?

 

[Shadow Carelli]

So are we talking about the attraction taking place on Skull Island or NYC? Or both? It was mentioned earlier that it would be a mix of both Kongfrontation and Kong 360 3D, but I was asking location wise. One way they could achieve both would be making the ride vehicle a plane??? :shrug:
