King Kong Speculation Thread

[Teebin]

I believe it is actually the back of the self-contained sample brickwork piece, not part of the construction itself. And it is really really close to the gate here on Toon Lagoon side, just out of the way for the workers is all.

Thanks... now the picture is REALLY interesting to me.

After going on kong 360 I have very high hopes for this attraction

Did you go on 360 during your most recent trip?

Yes and it was great, really cool use of technology and would've had a lot of reride ability if it wasn't in the middle of a 45 minute tour. The fact you could sit in different sections of the tram and get completely different POVs was something I've never experienced in any attraction before. Hopefully they implement that in this version because it was incredibly impressive. If 360 was a part of a bigger attraction then we are off on a ridiculously amazing foot

You should be very very incredibly happy with Orlando's version then. HTF hasn't been blowing smoke and now, I am not sure even he knows the extent of it.

I will leave you all with this... and only a select few will know what I mean: Green is no longer Universal. :wave:

Kitchen Sink

Dang the first kongfrontation burned a hole through universals wallet, hopefully this doesn't do the same lol. Still though firery entrances make for the best attractions. Thanks for the info teebin I hope your right

Well with all the gas they saved by killing jaws and turning off the middle burner in mummy they can afford to splurge. And you can't bring back the king without fire!!! If a ride has fire it can't be bad.

Now I'm curious if it will be inside fire

or outside fire.

I hope for both!

 

[Mad Dog]

Outdoor fire, as in the above scene, in addition to fire inside would be great. It could be a fitting compliment to Gringott's dragon.

Fire effects can add so much to a ride. This has me pumped.

 

[Ash]

I'm so confused with the fire situation. I thought there would be no fire effects on any new rides because of the "green is universal" thing... Hence why the part in transformers where there should be fire has an orange light and smoke (which has always bugged me) then gringotts comes with fire and the dragon breathes fire...

So are we all systems go with fire again! And if so any chance of putting fire in transformers?

 

[Hockeyman55]

Could we see fire used extensively on the exterior like here in the movie

I doubt it. Transformers is less about being green, and more about not burning your face off or burning the building down. Everything is far too close to everything else for a fire effect, especially in that scene.

LOl. i never knew it even had real fire. I know Spidey's fire wasn't working the other day.

Transformers?

It doesn't, nor was it ever intended to.

It just looks so inferior to Spidey's similar scene, is the building/proximity to the riders that much different to spider then?

Yea. The LN2 fog comes from right above you and hits the car. Spiey's fire is off to the side well above the ride path.
