Dark Universe - General Discussion Thread

Don't quite know if I posted Curse of The Werewolf's, but I did PNG logos for both that and Unchained and wish to give it for people to access as they wish~

I like to lurk not comment BUT I do have a question/comment ... Beautiful Land, stunning really and that's from above! Curious if dark universe is suppose to be from a mountain-esq region because im guessing it's more forest/flat? Also hopefully down the line universal creative can call Nasal I think they are called?! and enclose some of the ride in fake cave/rockwork. Maybe even "stone bridges" over the pathway where track is would be a semi "cheap" fix Im guessing?! (I know nothing) Im afraid these tall nets will take the immersion out but we shall see!!

lol crossing my fingers that Pretorius' will have the Potion Pretorius candle we got in IoA years ago. That one smelled so good and they haven't made it since (even under another name, as far as I've found)

There's seemingly a few other things missing on the map currently, and as far we can tell, it does seem that the store was constructed.

Yea that exit store exists, might not be stocked or manned yet, or just not in the app yet.

But you never know, the name may have changed since trademarks.

Drew Smith a prominent Disney blogger posted a non spoiler review of Monsters Unchained.

I’m guessing the attraction is in working order now since he was able to fully experience it.

That moment when we're getting reviews for rides that won't be open for another three months

Erm actually it opens in 2 months and 3 weeks

Drew is generally very positive, but this is an excellent review. It sounds like everything we’d hope for. I’m excited for more reviews and am curious how long the pre show and ride is.

But has he ridden mom yet?? How can he say this if not

I’m not sure from the wording of that post he’s even ridden Monsters yet. Or just reporting what he’s heard from others who have.

I don’t have an x account, does he say anywhere that it’s “scary”?

A TM who has ridden Monsters has answered a couple of questions on Reddit:

Curious what % of the ride is screens vs real sets

I don't think that question is relevant anymore, I get the feeling we are now in the era of screens as set dressing they're being woven into the environments. They are no longer the sets.

Ya, not that this ride is trying or ever was trying to be the same thing. But when we’re “outside” in a dark ride, blue ceilings and walls and lighting won’t trick a modern mind. Use screens to enhance the setting and make it more realistic. This ride has always been rumored to be extremely set and AA focused.
