Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

It's good for those areas, but I really hope it doesn't spread any further than that. I'd hate to lose the original John Williams cues from JURASSIC PARK and THE LOST WORLD, and the various other park-specific arrangements that were recorded for the opening of the park.

I like Giacchino, but when you've got Williams, use Williams.

I wouldn’t worry about it. Raptor Encounter and VelociCoaster are JW. Everything else is JP.

Unless they retheme all of JP to JW, I don’t see the JW music spreading out of the JW areas.

EDIT: Do we have any more Lost World music anymore? That played in the Discovery Center waterfront area. We have the main theme playing near the land’s main entrances and the IOA specific tunes playing in the middle. Does some TLW soundtrack play in Camp Jurassic?

As of January 2020, there was still LOST WORLD stuff playing between the Raptor Encounter area and the Discovery Center/Burger Digs. One of the darker, more atmospheric cues in this mode (though perhaps not this exact piece):

Oh yes, near the bathrooms behind the games still plays it I believe. I eat lunch at the tables near Predattoria and it plays there.

This might be a wildly unpopular opinion but I think Giacchino’s JW score is just as good as Williams’ JP score. And I adore Williams.

Giacchino’s music does an outstanding job at paying homage to the original score.

Giacchino's JW score is good... but I can't go anywhere near this far!

Even among his 2015 scores, I prefer TOMORROWLAND and, especially, INSIDE OUT.

But again, if we're talking about incorporating Giacchino stuff alongside Williams stuff, wonderful. All in favor of it. Just don't completely muscle out the iconic classic material for something deemed to be "newer" or "more relevant," or something.

@Alicia Do you live in the parks now? Like in From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler ? lol

I don’t actually go too often, but I ask people that are visiting lots of questions to keep up with changes between visits.

That part of the building looks like it has hair

Maybe they're giving the buildings environmentally friendly living roofs?

Hello there

EDIT: Maybe the lockers within the queue will only be the small kind? So anyone with larger items can take a quick detour into the Discovery Center to lock them up there?

Just thinking Blue Sky here, but how cool would it be if there was a effect on the first launch where the bushes and trees around the track start to shake going in a straight line to suggest that raptors are running next to us. Kind of like the one effect on River Adventure.

For the same reason that the raptors are static figures, you probably could never appreciate this from the speed you are traveling.

Still would be cool.

Whoever is in charge of Fauxliage at Universal needs to be fired...

Rumor is that the suits at Busch Gardens believe that Velocicoaster will Grand Open in "late June".

BG thinks UOR will wait to see what bookings are and then open it to fanfare (been running for a month or more at that point) so they can juice the summer numbers? I don't think they will wait that long for the GO

I expect it to be a BUSY Summer in Orlando no matter what new rides open.

Yup, which is why I think the parks aren't really committing to anything yet and the only ride that has committed to an opening date (Ratatouille) is in the Fall.
