Universal Studios Beijing (Now Open)

Also one thing i wanted to add, i don't understand why they always try to pushed forced perspective when comes to rocks work, it's OK for something to didn't look bigger than it actualy is !

Forced perspective is a well established technique ! You can easily tell in the design stages if it's going to work or not !
My opinion is that they should've gone the route of giant boulders or a big rock formation located near the lake !

Like in the picture below, it's a big natural rock formation, it look amazing and impressive even if it's not a 2000 ft mountain !

Hope it make sens, just my opinion :grin:

Probably duel load and more blocking.

I don't think dual loading helps, Artur already has a conveyer belt based systems and constantly dispatches trains. You would lose more time with constantly switching the tracks. Its already a pretty fast moving line.

KFP coming along wonderfully, while I hope something else goes on the ceiling, even if it’s mist or something that’d be dope, knowing what projection mapping can possibly do it’d be amazing to see it all covered but if not I’m pretty happy with how it looks frankly.

No matter how the boat ride turns out, the land looks terrific.

Pretty sure the ceiling is just gonna be black. But one thing to remember is we haven't seen what the land looks like lit only in show lighting. Everything we have seen so far has been fully lit with work lights.

I'm sure the trees will help too.

Yeah that’s why I’m not too worried, there’s going to be plenty of awesome lighting around the land I don’t foreseee it being an issue

Correct, it's just black like on Pirates or in the Pyramid in Mexico. Standing looking toward the back of the land the illusion should work fine.

Regardless, this is another ride opening I hope to see a POV of.

They designed dino AAs and puppets for the Jurassic World Exhibition in China that recently opened.

Looking through themeparx photos and I can't imagine walking through Hogsmeade in real snow that would be worth the trip itself

Didn't mean to double post but is the minions ride a clone of USF?

Actually think it might be a clone of the Japan version, so Back to the Future style instead of our version? Not 100% sure though.

Hmmm since they are starting from scratch it would've been nice to see this taken a SloP route could've been new and unique to this park. But glad to hear its BttF clone.

Couple photos on themeparx just got posted showing this effect

I'm in love with the lantern spinner. My family's second trip DCA they had Flick's Flyers which was a version of this ride. I was at the park with my wife, DD5, DD18months. Me and DD5 rode Flick's probably 10 times in the 4 days we were there. This version is WAY better. Not to take anything away from Flick's. It was by far the best flat in bug's land.

^ Zamperla Balloon Race is a great ride, but my favorite was the one they made with Peter Pan boats.

Really impressed with KFP, it’s looks so well done!!! Now let’s go ahead and get that over here to the US.
