T-Rex gets a little peevish when there are no tourists to eat.....
I was thinking more of them doing some extensive maintenance of the attraction.This gives universal the opportunity to change it over to JW and make the land more in line with velocicoaster.
It’s the flagship of the whole area; they shouldn’t retheme it to Jurassic World without doing so to the entire area first.
yesVelocicoaster ?
Regardless of it’s shape, it’s still the “thesis” attraction of JP, and maybe one of the thesis attractions for the resort as a whole.*Used to be the flagship lol
Still is the flagship-- while Velocicoaster is new and exciting, JPRA give the true Jurassic Park feeling/experience and has a much broader ridership.*Used to be the flagship lol
The "Welcome to Jurassic Park" as the gates swing open and the music swells is still the quintessential movie experience brought to life.
Even when I went in 1999 JPRA has always been hit or miss with effects and show elements. Any time you have an outdoor attraction it's hard to maintain all the moving parts all the time. Especially water rides...
I can see a Jurassic World retheme coming in the next couple of years, maybe for 2024. They are clearly doing the bare minimum to keep it operational and not investing in its long term future.
They couldn't go too far they built a roller coaster framing itRe-designing the Discovery Center would be an awful decision.
But the Jurassic World franchise is done. The Jurassic IP will continue in some form - no property sits dormant long in modern Hollywood - but we don’t know what that looks like yet. No reason to spend money retheming to a defunct and not particularly beloved franchise - just wait for the next version.I think this has a good chance. It would give them something to market for 2024 without costing a huge amount of money.
This would then get the resort to the 2025 Epic year.
