Maybe they're slowly telling the tale of evolution? We started with animatronic dinosaurs, next we move to animatronic apes, then we move to people.

More of a Vmax man myself

Same here, when paying the pricing that eVent want for movies the extra $3 is worth it. As for xD cinemas? Why do we need more than 4D and listing different effects doesn't mean you can add +1 to the D count, all it does is make you look like a D-bag!

We can only hope that Chinese redevelopment consortium includes some cinemas with V Max at the proposed cruise terminal/casino on the spit.

Either I've made that dirty and no one else did or you guys are wayyyyyyy off.

Sea World have had their eyes on a crocodile exhibit for a decade or so now. A hippo exhibit has been on the cards for almost as long. Both these are super-dangerous but super-boring-to-see-in-a-zoo. Why not complete the trifecta with another boring mankiller by way of gorillas?

Pretty simple, if u don't like animals - don't go to a zoo. If u don't like theme parks that are as equally or more focused on conservation & wildlife/sealife as they are on rides - don't go to Sea World.

Hippos are NOT boring. Proof: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4PAuv3BTMI Edited by Gazza

My point was that Sea World have had plans in the past for exhibits for two out of three of the animals shown on the billboard so it's pretty likely that this is exactly what's coming. And that they're boring animals to watch -- I say that as someone who enjoys zoos. Gazza's video aside, hippos are blobs that sit motionless underwater most of the time. Crocodiles the same unless a Steve Irwin type is taunting it with a raw chicken. Admittedly gorillas do at least move somewhat when they're not sleeping.

Sharks, rays and other fish swimming in circles are hardly exciting either.

Sharks - Amazing animals that most people love seeing up close where they would not always have the option of doing so, plus they have the choice to go diving with them. Rays - Adult and children alike love to see them up close and have the ability to make contact with them in a relatively safe environment. Other fish - A lot of people love aquariums, huge ones at that. Everyone knows Sea World is more of a Marine Park than a Theme Park

True but I completely agree with Richard on this one.. Hippos and Crocodiles for the most part are boring, lifeless animals spending more than 95% of their time just sitting there not moving. Especially during daylight hours. - One of the reasons why Walt Disney opted for the "Animatronic" version for his Jungle cruise back in 1955 after being advised that during typical park hours most wild animals would be sleeping. If this is what this attraction is going to be, hardly seems "wild" to me.. Mind you I would look forward to seeing these animals in a Jungle environment as is depicted in the artwork but I can't see that for the amount of money such a venture would cost, that it would return a worthy dollar on it's investment

It's almost like people have different interests and tastes. Quite amazing.

Congratulations, you can see the point I'm making.
