Shrek should become SING! On Tour. And Monsters Cafe/Transformers extended queue should become SLoP.

Egad, added capacity?!

So.

How about that post from New Years talking about how we'll learn more about this attraction by the year's end?

Yeah that was a thing.

That said, looks good so far.

I mean technically they did. It gave a list and said more info on things such as. Some were the new cinematic, Hp castle show and coaster. So they did give us info on some of those things.

Honestly, the Crystal Ball seemed to be more of..shall we say, "Reminding" people that Universal isn't going to be dormant, and it didn't mean that we should've expected everything from that revealed automatically.

Honestly, I imagine the next announcement will either be the Potter Coaster, Bourne, or Emeril's Replacement, but I don't expect any of them until after the New Year.

 

[Ryan]

I mean, the list was definitely put there to say "hey this is what we'll tell you about later this year!" and Universal couldn't even commit to a year-long timeframe on doling out info.

It's hilarious.

Should be really polished since the cast has been practicing offsite since summeropcorn:

Not practicing, staging.

We still have two weeks left in the year. Maybe a Christmas miracle is in order?

Maybe.......

Also- I finally figured out where your profile pic was taken! It’s at horror makeup show!

 

[Gillman]

Or maybe it could be a nice Christmas gift.

Holy crap the theater is even more gutted than I thought. Pics later, but damn.

Good news is framing is up for side expansions.

 

[RFRees]

What are "side expansions"?

 

[Ridgepole]

Not practicing, staging.

Staging? Thought it was Blocking before. Just so we don't get sucked into a narrow definition of these terms...:grin:Stage Movement & Blocking: Definition & Rules | Study.com

Sorry, yes blocking. My bad.

 

[Nick]

Sorry, yes blocking. My bad.

Blocking is a part of rehearsals though. They just haven’t gotten to do dress rehearsals or full run throughs of the show I would assume.

I’ve spent most of my life doing theater in one way or another and blocking is the biggest part of any rehearsals process.

Finally got my replacement rumor/construction update article up:

What’s Replacing Terminator 2: 3D at Universal Studios Florida with Construction Update – Orlando ParkStop

Here's some pics of the new expansion being added the right side of the theater. Only a couple feet more space, to allow actors more room to move backstage on the new, longer stage. There should be a much bigger expansion on the left side, but that's not really visible from the Hard Rock Hotel walkway area. (Note: Photos taken from guest areas.)

See the article for more details and shots of the front of the building and in the gift shop, but not much has changed in the last year+ since it closed.

 

[belloq87]

Seeing that kind of work going on gives me hope that the new show might be (a little) bigger in scope than I was initially thinking. Which is good!

 

[Teebin]

Wow, they have really blasted both sides out of the theater. Looks promising!

 

[darkridelover]

I heard a couple interesting rumors this week and then a ran into this photo and thought it was interesting.

That image is from a show reel of the motion theater concept by Dynamic Attractions. It was one of the earliest things we speculated in this thread actually, but doesn't seem to be the way they went with this project... Funny that the left and right flanks in that image are kind of reminiscent of the building expansions though lol.
