Here's a pic dump from Wednesday
Dummies were in but saw no testing
Lots of greenery waiting to be planted
Slight theming clash with Nick land
Like how the Trident wall is looking!
The statues are pretty big
Half of a even BIGGER statue
(later) the crane is up
The BIG Statue half is getting moved
Looks like he's being installed by Trident
Lots of Trees have been planted by Levy
No sign of testing on either ride but I don't think it will too long now...
They shouldn't go and rip out a production worthy auditorium like that for a ride. They should put money back into decent shows and reopen the show stage as it was intended and finally do something decent with the HSD area.
This is what the park really needs. Somewhere to soak up 1000+ people a few times a day. Allows guests to get out of the sun and cool off in the air conditioning during the hottest part of the day.
The amount of money spent on set and theming in those calibre of a ride exceeds the full budget village have ever had available for an entire ride.
Can they do a lot better? hell yes. But you have to be realistic. You aren't going to see hundred million dollar expenditure. They just don't have the turnover to match.
It’s pretty easy to see who the target market is just by looking at the design of the place. It really doesn’t scream family theme park hotel. It just looks like a generic, modern, corporate hotel plonked down at the front of the park (though it is aesthetically pleasing).
I like this new Hotel V, but I do like the WB Hotel better. Not sure I can quite understand how there's an appetite for 600-rooms unless they're really banking on this as a full-time corporate conference hotel over being a theme park hotel.
You could do a fairly generic 'studio' dark ride that's rather good, but showcase is the sort of thing the park needs. No fake narrative, no rider requirements. Just 'here's some movie stuff'
