Am I seeing things? I don't have a good resolution with zooming but does that look like a dinosaur where the old stegosaurus used to be on the rockwork or is that just rockwork?

Anyone else see a black tarp covering up something along the ride path just after the Raptor paddock

We have talked about a new planter going in between Jurassic queue and SNW before but from this angle it looks like a whole new building? Maintenance shed or something else?

It looks like a truck loading/unloading bay. I know the old one was at the end of the path with the restrooms, but it was probably removed for SNW construction.

Definitely like the change to potential IRex Doors or whatever that window is that now sits where the Jeep fell.

Agreed on many thoughts though its weird to still have have it sit next to the Raptor Paddock.

I hope there is clever details we cant see yet that blends this into the updated JW story of the ride.

What I'm liking a lot is, what looks like, a large addition to foliage throughout the ride. Even just hearing a raptor, dilo or Indominous Rex right next to you through thick jungle foliage would make this ride that much more intense.

Oh I know (I think I remember reading they actually use magnets to slow it down). Its just such a shock to see it -- and I imagine it might be a wee bit more uncomfortable a stop

I seem to remember they changed it a few years back, as the Hollywood version doesn't benefit from the extra "track" before it starts to curve towards the unload.

From JPLand, they have added a lot more ground tile to the Jurassic Cafe area.

Any ideas on an opening date for the attraction ?

Have we talked about there being a new tiki bar on the second floor, above the old Jurassic Cafe? Starting to seem like a real possibility based on what people are saying. I’d love it!

Me too! I’d love something different in there. From early sneaks, it looks like the area will remain mostly the same, but uniquely different. Hopefully they find new ways to utilize previously untouched spaces.

I hate that i keep misreading "dilo" for "Dildo." Also, bwahahaahhahah, in the foliage!

I would look to June. Something like June 10th - 20th or something... Although we are getting close to completion, there is still painting and pavement work to be done as well as some small structures still being built. It's probably going to be a July 4th grand opening or something along those lines. Lastly, it looks like there is a section near were the Dilos used to be that needs to be enclosed.

Yes! I always have to triple-read it anytime I use it in a sentence. That would be a post for a totally different thread.

Unless Universal has any plans to build a "Fifty Shades of Gray" attraction, i think the IU forums isn't the best place to talk about mistaking dinosaurs for sex toys.

Well, I guess we know the plot to Jurassic World 3 now, and what they bred those dinosaurs to do...

Alright now... the joke has run its course.
