Universal’s Cinematic Spectacular - Nighttime Show

[Teebin]

Here's another new video of the show from a distance but this time it's the entire show. I also noticed that the fireworks finale seems to be evenly shared now and they've added a 3rd firing location now.

Thanks for posting! They have changed a ton of stuff since the testing weeks back. Added a third building launch (unless the previous test angle was deceptive and we were seeing one behind the other), and removed a phrase-launch from the end, and the Simsons building still does only a futz launch for the very last. I absolutely love the search lights usage on the smoke from the pyro... really doubles the money.

Clarification... this was taken on a really windy night with winds blowing south which would have been Sunday. This video appears to have been shot from Hard Rock Hotel or a hotel further away across Kirkmen. So almost the opposite of the previous video.

I believe the most recent video was shot from the top of the parking garage.

yeah, took me a while to figure it out... the far north end I think.

Awesome! Thanks for posting! :rep:

I can't wait to see this in person!!

So could we be looking at 11 minutes as the running time for the show? Unless they caught it after it had already started?

There's a point towards the end where the video noticeably jumps as if it's been cut. I'd assume it's longer.

I thought the number I heard was 16 min...their are probably some quiet sentimental moments I'm sure...great video thanks for posting I haven't even seen the fountains, other lights and screens together with this and it already looks like a home run!

I don't believe this was previously noticed, but Florida Thrills points out that more spot lights have been installed on the roof of Animal Actors.

Wait....(Sorry I haven't been following this thread for a few days). So you have seen the show... when did you see it? Was it amazing!?!?! how often have they been testing the entire show? If I have misunderstood your entire post I apologize. hahah

I was able to catch the show on a night they were testing after hours, and yes the show will be amazing.

I love seeing Universal blowing BIG bucks and getting it right. Reminds me of IOA years ago.

Just to be safe, is this sarcasm? You're always known for being vague....

no no no, not being sarcastic at all. Universal Creative has always been great at spending money, when they have had it, which has not been often in the past. As I have said previously, WDI was under the gun to figure out how Uni created Mummy on such a low budget (when WDI was still plowing forward with the final opening details of Everest.)

I quite like that blue steel work. At least it's an attempt at beautifying those barges to decency.

Thanks for another great update, hatetofly! :thumbs:

I love how these side panels are looking. I hope they also add some panels to the other two ends, and that way the trusses will be fully hidden when the show is not running.

Thinking I might make a visit tomorrow night :shrug:
