The Bourne Stuntacular - General Discussion

[Jwhee]

How long was it? Also hate gunfire blanks lol but they can be exciting when used properly. Show sounds bloody insane

It is at least 15 minutes long.

Also from what I heard today it doesn’t end with any iconic theme music or something similar like Terminator. There’s the explosion finale, a few gun shots afterwards and then the closing narration

I would have put a large amount of money on "Extreme Ways" playing as exit music, as it's the traditional way the movies conclude.

Could very well be the exit music, but not in an "iconic" ending scene like the old T2 finale

Also possible it's not part of the show but instead an exit program.

April 15 was Jason borne's fake birth date in the borne movies.

I have to re listen to what I recorded but from what I recall the plot line features a main character girl and guy, and someone stole(?) some piece of technology and they’re trying to get it back.

So, Jason Bourne himself is not present in the show? It’s like The Bourne Legacy?

Yeah, they wouldn't have the exit music turned on right now. Are there still speakers above the exit doors?

 

[Alicia]

I think it’s important to remember that this is primarily an exit for two shows, so while i enjoyed more of the props from the past few years they need the space to funnel guests out.

Anyway, store open, Today at UOR in a little over a week, I think the show is closer than we think.

*edit*

1812 Overture plays

Extended video of show testing as heard from the gift shop in this, after a tour of the shop. Interesting how they added more doors while removing the side doors and the old display case from inside the shop.

I love that we are completely in the dark with this one. It sounds like it could be revolutionary for a stunt show.

I really don't feel like we're in the dark. Nearly everything in the show has been rumored... Even the story now is floating around.

But of course, even knowing everything about a new show won't compare to how it will actually feel to experience it in person. And I am very much looking forward to it.

Ahh maybe I just haven’t been paying close enough attention recently. Do we know what the stage setup is supposed to be like? How much of it will be actors vs backdrops screens and such?

The entire backdrop is expected to be a screen, with practical set-pieces moving in an out for performers to practically interact with. It's T2 with a LOT more stuff going on.

Maybe I'm just an easy sell, but those doors flying open at the finale has me HYPED for what's inside. 10x more excited than I was before and I've been on board with this show from the get go.

I think its great to have something back in the parks that feels potentially like old school Universal. Pyro, live ammunition, stunt actors...the glory days!

You said it right on, classic USF to me! Im thrilled its opening! I really do miss the good ole' days for me with Twister, Disaster, T2, Horror Makeup, and Fear Factor and AA all being open! The glory days for sure. Hopefully Bourne is the first in many returns to that kind of Universal park. Sounds.... Epic!

I think it's funny that three of the things you listed were replacements.

I figured. It's a fantastic example of why nostalgia is such a weak argument against change (and especially bringing stuff back). Your "classics" are not my "classics." And there's a kid who, in ten years, will view Bourne and Fallon as their "classics."

Yep, very true. I do believe there are some "generation less" rides, like ET, Marvel at IOA, and JP. Kids will always be excited by those things. Maybe not ET, but I personally think the attraction is simply good and worth the test of time. But you're right, its a major reason why I love the theme parks. I mean heck, my DHS icon for almost all my life that I can remember was the Socrerer hat, Chinese Theatre is almost a new icon there for me. Speaks to how often parks need to change and re-invent themselves.
