Well if the JP arches are missing and the Skull Island marquee faces Jurassic Park, that continues IOA's habit of featuring the best entrances to an area by moving counter-clockwise through the park.
Good point, I'd never thought of that.Well if the JP arches are missing and the Skull Island marquee faces Jurassic Park, that continues IOA's habit of featuring the best entrances to an area by moving counter-clockwise through the park.

It doesn't get better. We can share a toast in the Fall. :thumbsup:Cheers! Pennsylvania's finest!
Yeah, I confirmed that a bit ago. I believe it is a large room between load and unload.
If you want to bypass the queue, I would take your daughter through single riders and you can drop her off there as you will walk right by it.
I hope more than anything that Jurassic Park / JW gets a proper land soon. The entrance to JP was one of my favorite places in all of Universal. Hell, in all of Orlando. Jurassic Park deserves so much more than it's been reduced to.
I love those caves!I don't get all the hate for the JP island only having one arch. It still has the other... and it has an arch on the ride that the boat goes through. Jurassic Park is my favorite film of all time. I have original movie posters for all 4 films in my home, framed. I even created an entire website devoted to dinosaurs and covering the JW films. And yet, losing one of two arches does not bother me. Not in the slightest.
Now if they ever bulldozed the Discover Center, I'd weep openly, for a week.
If anything, I was more sad to see the "electric" perimeter fencing with the blue/red lights go away along that strip of walkway than I was the arch. But with the addition of Raptor Encounter we got all new fences with lights, so I'm all good now. Plus, Camp Jurassic has the best stuff for a JP nerd like me. The tower is themed like the raptor pit tower in JP. The fences and gates between areas are themed like the interior electric gates in the film (like when Nedry's escaping.) And the ambient sounds and fog are incredible. I could spend hours in Camp Jurassic.
While waiting for Kong softs today I spent a good deal of time wandering around the caves of Camp Jurassic, enjoying the atmosphere. All that is the magic stuff I would be sad to see go. We still got another arch. No need to be upset. That's my thoughts anyway.

There's a TM position at the temple entrance whose job it is seems to be to sort people out of the line.
This thread, off topic? Blasphemy!This is seriously going off topic and these posts may get moved soon, but you don't think JP is a proper land right now?
We spend tons of time in Camp Jurassic. We're like kids in there. I can't get my GF off the dino footprints that make dino sounds. She'll dance around on them for 15-30 minutes. The first time in the caves, I tricked her into standing on the footbridge in the cave that got her soaked with water. She was sooooo mad.I don't get all the hate for the JP island only having one arch. It still has the other... and it has an arch on the ride that the boat goes through.

Who are they sorting out of the line?
Ahhhh.... so that is how they will get around kids being in the queue.
I'm not a parent but I think you guys are over estimating how "scary" the line can be. This is not halloween horror nights. I'm sure the natives wont be trying to scare kids. Either way, if I was a parent I would just reasure them its not real and might even laugh if they get scared. The overly sensitive parents are gonna ruin it for everyone else.

There's literally a room that's supposed to be on 'fire" with a witch doctor murmuring and summoning a giant beast...Meanwhile, there are natives hiding in holes popping out at anyone that walks by. If the kids go in the line, their fair game. This will scare the piss out of grown adults.
How can you speak for parents if you aren't one? Also, have you walked through the queue yet? Genuine questions here.
