Sorry if this has been mentioned, but has anyone noticed that we never see the face/likeness of any actor from the Jurassic Franchise, and we only see Vin Diesel from the Furious franchise? There’s so many iconic human moments (quotes, etc) from these films that could improve this show yet we...
So #blessed to be alive when people are throwing around the notion of Uni buying even more land on top of the buttload they recently purchased.
I come from the dark ages of the early 2000's when, after Vivendi sold off the Lockheed land, future expansion was completely and totally ruled out...
My bet is that they will use a small portion of the new land for a year-round HHN-style park with permanent walk-through houses and a few horror ride-based attractions.
It will be open nightly, say, from 4pm-10pm. Houses can open/close based on season/attendance. This would be hard to resist...
I think they are continuing to target the convention market with this hotel. The rooftop bar makes this hotel a no-brainer for convention bookers. My guess is that the rooftop will often be closed for private events.

It seems like just yesterday Hatetofly (i think!) broke the news on this site that there would be a 200ft tall volcano next to I-4. And now it effing exists. Wow.
I'm trying to just view this at face value, as if I was born into this world today. Trying to forget what's under there.
I GUESS... it looks kinda cool? Kinda? I think...?
Let me rephrase that. IF this was a brand new attraction, built from the ground up, I would probably think it looked...
Very smart puttin in a hairpin turn at the entrance (with high trees) so the Volcano has a big "reveal" moment once you are in the park and round the corner.
Does anyone know if the volcano will have any inhabitable spaces inside (i.e. breakroom, VIP room, offices, basketball court) or is it purely a decorative structure?
Not sure if you heard, but at the last investors meeting he kinda changed his tune, saying if the company needed him to stay then he would (paraphrasing).
