The Bourne Stuntacular - General Discussion

[Scott W.]

Pitch Perfect would have been fine. Not the best use of the venue, but completely fine.

Spot on.

We can argue about whether Bourne is right or not but let’s not forget about WaterWorld. It bombed but is always touted as one of the best stunt shows.

All I want is a better sound system to be totally honest

Terminator sounded awful in its last year

Hoping this turns out to be Orlando’s Waterworld...but probably a stretch. Still, one can dream

It could be better than Waterworld.

I'll be at the parks the first weekend of February! I'm hoping i get lucky and catch the opening. What is the latest rumor on opening? The thread says Spring but in Alicia's Park Stop video from a few days ago, she said this year or early 2020...

I don't think anyone really knows specifically. My guess is they open around when Fallon opened which was March. Just in time for spring break crowds.

I'm excited about the mention of stagecraft and "how'd they do that" in the description for this. I got to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway recently and was absolutely blown away by what was happening on stage. It actually felt like a stationary theme park attraction with the amount of visual trickery, projection mapping, and moving sets on display. If we get even a fraction of that level of stagecraft this could be spectacular.

I want a HP and The Cursed Child sit-down production in Orlando. I can't recommend it enough to any Potter fan. Must be seen on stage too, reading the play wouldn't do it anywhere near the amount of justice it deserves, same with film unless they can get the original trio to do it.

Yep, that’s a bad hairball

I posted that video 2 hours before Universal accidentally revealed the show on their site. Wish I had kept my original script of “opening sometime between now and next spring,” but changed it to “early next year” based on rumors that it could be opening sooner.

Until Universal makes a real actual official announcement no one knows for sure. I have a feeling they’ll say Spring when they actually announce it, (maybe tomorrow to coincide with the new TV show debuting on USA), but it could soft open a wee bit earlier if they’re ready.

We’ll have to wait and see.

Id imagine, like any new show on Broadway, they'd have some type of preview period testing the show with an audience.

Gee I wonder why they’d be shy announcing an opening day. Hmmmmm

top rated attraction essentially across the company. These are high expectations

I don't think we'll ever get an opening day and like F&F, it'll just open one day without much fanfare. I wonder if they even have any plans for the Bourne cast to be in attendance or not at an opening ceremony.

As somewhat expected, an announcement to go along with the spinoff show on TV tonight. Glad its official!

The Facebook reaction is about as expected.
