Jurassic World: The Ride Construction Thread

Nope, this still doesn't come close to Hagrid. (It's likely coming to FL anyway).

It is currently working without maintenance issues though... :shrug:

 

[Jwhee]

Now that's extremely impressive. Great job UC!

Gotta thank the entertainment team at Universal Studios Japan for this one. They’ve been using this puppet for at least 5 years over there. It’s genius.

Yup, and here I was almost thinking to myself not to dream of seeing Hollywood getting the puppet, because of it being so frigging cool.

Ummm... AMAZING! They are really bringing this area to life!

Between the Triceratops, baby velociraptor, and the ride, this is turning into a really nice and needed 9-10 month refurb. Think we are getting more than we bargained for.

Thinking forward.... once Nintendo is done and if Universal possibly decides to do anything interesting with Mummy and/or find space for something possibly opposite transformers from Nintendo, the bottom lot could look very complete.... possibly even for the first time in the history of the park, arguably.

Agreed. Don't forget Isla Nu-Bar (how is that pronounced again?). Although I've probably dropped a Gold pass worth of money there on drinks visiting everyday waiting for the ride to open.

Getting back to the commercials, I saw a TV ad for Jurassic World, but it just says, "Open this summer". So nothing more definitive.

I am loving all these new dino interactions. Very cute! I'm honestly not even really a big dino/Jurassic Park franchise fan, but all is looking great regardless. I can still enjoy the experience even if I don't love the IP. (I feel the same way about SNW, by the way.)

true! Forgot to mention the bar. Just shows how much more we are getting here. And I’m over the Isla debate..... for now haha

And the massively, Massively, MASSIVELY, improved menu and Jurassic Cafe which used to be one of the worst places to eat at the park.

Whats going on in the park today? TM previews? Empty Boat runs?

Triceritop's have begun to pop up around the JW area, with them being imports from Osaka.

Lot of empty so far

Nice, thats a good sign!

OMFG.. :faint:

Insane!!! They are just killing it. They really went above and beyond with reimagining this part of the park, from top to bottom. So impressive.

That's literally been the online theme park community since the 90s. There's no avoiding it.

 

[KlownzNskullZ]

Ima predict the future. Gp will be able to ride tomorrow.

Strictly talking about people complaining about Hollywood getting something when Orlando literally has twice the parks, tons of exclusives, volcano bay, diagon, hagrid, hotels etc etc etc.
