Universal's Cinematic Celebration Night Show

[JungleSkip]

So Mike said each portion will be 2 minutes long. So far we have 5 portions (Potter, F&F, Jurassic, DM, and DW), which means we know at least 10 minutes of the show. I'm gonna guess we get at least 3 more segments featuring Transformers as well as an opening/closing segment featuring clips from other properties.

And....it looks like there's going to be a number of WOW moments in this show. That's the kind of stuff that leaves good memories in your mind.

I'd bet a lot of your money that Trolls will appear

Yeah, it seems like they’re completely moving away from the classics with this, which is a shame but all we can hope is that they have other plans for these again in the future.

I would like to hope so, but at the same time, if they're not even going to bother to include them in a nighttime spectacular, why would we think they would go to the trouble to use them in some other way?

Yup. They specifically say Trolls, HTTYD, and KFP will be the DreamWorks section

Attractions, parades, shows and lands can be redeveloped at any point and there’s potentialy 2 new theme parks that could be built on the recently purchased land.
Anything is possible in the future! :toast:

Based on no intel - I can’t imagine they don’t pay homage to some classics. They may not each individually get their own dedicated section, but I know Aiello is the type to give nods to the past.

E.T. will be in the new show (at least).

Agreed. Whether in the opening segment or the closing segment, I imagine we'll get some classics. The entire ending of CineSpec was ET, and I wouldn't be surprised if the same thing closed this show

19 minutes long - awesome!

 

[JungleSkip]

19 minute show, so pretty meaty!

 

[MrPipps]

There will we nods to some classics... However they might be extremely subtle and hidden unless you're a superfan.

Glad the announcement was made. Now we can all look forward to this thing opening. I knew a bit about the show but not all the details. I don't know about you guys but I'm incredibly impressed now that I've seen the announcement.

I love your optimism!

I mean Mike says in that interview ET has a portion in the show, so he'll at least be there

Potter Leaky Cauldron article has Aiello saying dedicated viewing for 6,500 people. Tampa articles says 650 people. Anyone know which is correct, or do we split the difference to get a real number.

Hogwart's article has Aiello saying dedicated viewing for 6,500 people. Tampa articles says 650 people. Anyone know which is correct, or do we split the difference to get a real number.

Would be amazed if it was only 650.

I would assume 650 is just a typo missing a 0.

6,500 sounded like too much when I read that article. How much is rivers of light?



Answering my own question

"The Asia side for FastPass+ seats around 2300 guests, and the DinoLand U.S.A. side seats around 2700 guests. There is also standing capacity on the DinoLand U.S.A. side for standby guests, bringing total capacity to around 6000 guests."

Rivers of Light is primarily seating though, so it's tough to compare with tiered standing room.

 

[Parkscope Joe]

The standing area for World of Color is 4500... I wonder if 6500 is indeed accurate.
