Dark Universe - General Discussion Thread

[Tomfoolery]

I think I’m anticipating this land the most. Am I correct in assuming that the rumours suggest this lands dark ride will be using the forbidden journey ride system? But with less screens and more physical set pieces. If so I’m sure it’ll be an absolute blast.

The LED walls are mostly layered between physical showsets, as backgrounds and characters moving between animatronic/physical figures and digital models,,

I’m sure it’ll be awesome

To use a Tim Tracker term , the average guest may have trouble way finding in this land compared to the others

Maybe it is intentional especially at night

I like this guy. Looks like a full scale grim reaper or something in with the headstone barrier.

Ahhh nice catch! Man, now I'm going to want to see how many other headstones are from any of the films

That’s not doing homework, that’s extra credit.

I have been tough on Universal regarding this land, but this touch is exactly the sort of thing I want to see.

Where the Wolfman coaster re-enters the load/unload building, they are building a structure over the track's final brake run. Any ideas on what this is or if this will be a final show scene?

@Alicia has mentioned these will be tents themed to Romani Gypsies..Would be interesting to see a show scene, but doubtful in my opinion. Been wrong before, though

That is so god damn metal

Regarding Wolfman, two things:
1) the ride mechanics look a lot like Cobra's Curse, which is such a charming ride.
2) The train goes through the middle "house" three times. And there is rumored to be an animatronic in there. What if it is a turntable with man, transformation, werewolf? This could work.

^ Cobra's Curse and Wolfman do, infact, share the same manufacture.

Didn't know that! Fascinating!

That CC queue is so great, yet so out of place over there in BG. The perfect example of a C ticket (if even?) rising above because of the queue.

Cheetah Hunt is by far the better coaster, but I'll do both every time I visit. Maybe a 1:3 CH:CC ratio for me. Love laughing with other guests in the other cars!
