Yup! And fun fact, if you look up at the end of the ride, sharp eyed fans will see the animatronic heads of Bill, Ted, and Gay Superman!
Bogus dude! That offended me as a Bill and Ted fan! I'm going to write an article and cancel the ride (I know what ride at Disney you're referencing. Hehe)Yup! And fun fact, if you look up at the end of the ride, sharp eyed fans will see the animatronic heads of Bill, Ted, and Gay Superman!
Fascinating read. I wish I can recall some of the details from my most recent ride, but it's all a blur.Something you Potter fans may want to read, a Forbidden Journey article.

Amazing... if we get the cut scenes this will be amazing. Do people really get sick often at this ride?Something you Potter fans may want to read, a Forbidden Journey article.

I have. the screens are very close in proximity and the motion is super fast on each video. its almost too much to suck in on one ride through. After riding it twice, that was enough for me. I have only been on the ride 5 times... ever!Amazing... if we get the cut scenes this will be amazing. Do people really get sick often at this ride?
YES!!! More people vomit, require help from health services, and complain of severe nausea that any other ride in the resort by a landslide. The ride has gone through all of its changes, two total reprofiles, upgraded dome projectors, and adjustments to effects all in a hope of cutting down motion sickness. The air bladders should be a huge help for guests. Its something we used in flight school.Amazing... if we get the cut scenes this will be amazing. Do people really get sick often at this ride?
Didn't know it was that intense. I hope the air bladders help. God thing is that only 4 people go with you at a time... I just don't want to get vomited all overYES!!!

As for 4K, the projectors and video were always in 4K. The main issue was the lighting of the old projects in a concave environment. The new projectors use 4 bulbs if I'm not mistaken to greatly bump up the brightness.
You guys will at least get upgrades over ours due to installation alone. Several of the mistakes during installation caused Orlando to lose effects. With time on their side in HW as well as MASSIVE profit opportunity almost a guarantee they are going to do this right. And don't worry about the ride system not being ready, this bad boy will start testing by Dec 2015 to get ready for Summer 2016. Oh and personally I think you guys are looking at a Spring Grand Opening but thats besides the point.
Last but not least is the complexity issue. What amazes me is how Universal was able to get this thing up and running with minimal downtime past Grand Opening. I mean I didn't even get into how each RV scans a barcode system directing is physical movements on 4 axis that are times with physical effects to 1/16 of an inch. ITS CRAZY!!!
That's fascinating to hear. One of my main complaints was how dim the entire picture was. I realize that the film takes place in a dark environment, but it was rather difficult to see - especially coming off of Spiderman and Transformers.As for 4K, the projectors and video were always in 4K.

Well you will have to excuse me as I misspoke earlier. Its not 4 bulbs per say, its actually 4 different types of bulbs and settings. They increased the power and are using a stronger bulb setting in the new set up.That's fascinating to hear. One of my main complaints was how dim the entire picture was.

Glad to hear they're working on it though.
The professional projector industry moves at a rather sluggish pace in terms of major advancements. Remember, reliability is key in this industry so they're not going to harp on the next best thing.I'm sure every time a significant advancement comes along to projection technology that allows for sharper and brighter images but that are also energy efficient, Universal will splurge on upgrades! At least I'd hope so!
And Simpsons needs all the help it can get. It's so dark.....for those who have ridden FJ and Simpsons, how dark are they compared to each other?
