Dark Universe - General Discussion Thread

I hope they meant "clove" and not "glove"-- I'm thinking "rubber glove or baseball mitt?"-- very different flavors, neither sounds appetizing.

I didn't even notice that lol. For the record I do not like the taste of gloves

When I make my Holiday wine, cloves and cinnamon sticks added to the finishing clearing vat(carboy), make a delicious wine reminiscent of Christmas.

This is what I’m most looking forward to. This and expansion. Lol I want to know what IP is coming next (LOTR hopefully) but I know that is years from being announced.

notes of dr frankensteins gloves as used in the laboratory of course lmfao

Everyone is going to want to play the vampire hunter lol.

Looks like the majority of Curse of the Werewolfs track is surrounded by wire nets. Kind of like containment netting. Can't tell if I like it or not.

Seems like legal got involved in some way, ugh. We'll have to see what it looks like in person.

I don't think it's entirely on them. This looks like a stylistic choice.

Oof, yeah, that does not look awesome from the air. I'm hoping they aren't done dressing the nets and are working on a more attractive solution.

Oh...

Werewolf is already by far my least anticipated ride and admittedly this doesn’t help. Still wish we got a show!

 

[Alicia]

Wondering now if this is cause it’s a ride that doesn’t require lockers. And spinning motion can cause glasses and such to fly off horizontally away from a rider.

Or if it’s a concern about guests throwing objects at train from the ground—like isn’t part of the reason for the cage on the VelociCoaster bridge.?

Taking a stab, I'd imagine they couldn't guarantee 100% containment of objects in pockets throughout the whole ride, after all it does spin freely. They probably figured this was the easiest solution. How many people would make the joke about even Universal kid's rides requiring metal detection?

It’s for the live werewolf they’re going to place inside — Awooooo!

I may end up loving the ride, but if this is the point, why make this the ride then? I’m worried Universal is too coaster friendly but nets everywhere isn’t my fav thing truly. Trying not to nit pick, but it’s a thing.

 

[devinp267]

I get kinetics but this should’ve been a hidden attraction as much as possible not crossing guest walkways. I kind of get the coaster breaking the immersion thing now being hiccups and curse have no justifiable reason as to why there is a coaster in their timelines. Not the biggest deal though they will be amazing.

The infrastructure for that fencing showed up in some of Bio's aerials a while back, and I commented on it at the time as being odd and Jurassic Park-esque.

I think it looks actively bad in its more advanced form (primarily because it clashes with the theme work of the rest of the land).

I think that may require some patience for the first year. There's a row of trees along the fenceline which implies to me it'll eventually cover that fence view.
