[Disneyhead]

Hey Martin, is this going to be part of the 12/12 reveal?

I've no idea what'll be announced next week, but I'd be surprised if this topic cropped up. I'm looking forward to the 12th as much as everyone else!

If you don't follow the twitters, Hate has shared some new info:

Kong is coming to IOA and it has a project number... Project 340 is moving full steam ahead.

He'll be probably sharing more in a bit on this thread.

If Kong was announced tomorrow along with the JP family additions, and details on Cabana, Diagon AND the Citywalk revamp... that'd be an announcement worth bringing Mickey out for

I don't see Kong being announced on Thursday but if it is... May God have mercy on this forum's servers.

We're prepared!

I saw a permit, it could be old, but it says it was last updated yesterday. The name of the project is "Kongfrontation" does anyone know if this is the old permit for the old ride? I dont see why that permit would be updated yesterday... But "Kongfrontation" could just be the code name for the ride.

A link would be helpful.

Yeah, a link would do wonders haha

It would be cool if they kept the same name.

HTF just posted this on Twitter:
"Kong: think Indiana Jones meets a 3D Great Movie Ride. Said to have a huge budget north of 125 Million Dollars."

"TF 100 Million, FJ 85 Million so IMO 125-150 million is quite a budget for a single ride from creative"

Such a hefty price tag (for Universal) is very encouraging.

 

[DufflesMcGee]

That sounds amazing... bringing the ape that built universal back home in full force is the next game changer

Just searched that project name. There are 3 from when the original became the Mummy. 2 were finaled out on 12/5/2012 from 10 years of inactivity.

Did you get a case number?

Can the moderators move this to the Islands of Adventure board? It no longer belongs here.

 

[Marni1971]

^ perhaps it doesn't belong there either.

Subliminal hint? :smiley:

Come on, Martin. You can't drop something like that without some more clarification.

 

[Hockeyman55]

They possibly moving Kong to the rumored third gate?
