Dreamworks Theatre with Kung Fu Panda - Coming 2018

I don't see this having a virtual queue. It has a somewhat large capacity

Wouldn’t that be even more reason to test it? If it works with a high capacity attraction, why not with others?

I feel like the whole idea is to use it for lower capacity attractions. But maybe this film will be longer than 12 minutes and call for one?

To be honest, if they were to try to use Virtual Queue for USH, a part of me would suspect that TWDA or even Simpsons would be a better option at this point than DWT for Virtual Queue testing.

The virtual queue system seems like it needs a 3 room experience. I am curious to see how Supercharged does this in Orlando...

With Shrek 4D being completely gutted, could this possibly make it a 3 room experience?

So guys: how long do you think KFP will stand before another one is swapped out? I give it a solid 2 years.

Honestly, I can see a Osaka route, giving the ability for multiple films in the same operational hours.

Even so, they wouldn't add an additional film for easily another couple years.

And I agree, but that I do think whenever they add a new film, it won't mean the end of KFP

I wouldn't be so sure. How to Train Your Dragon 3 is slated to be released March 1, 2019. I think having a HtTYD film in there around that time is perfectly within the realm of possibility.

I'll give it 1 year of continuous run, then in fall of 2019 it'll start going seasonal (halloween and christmas).

Maybe, but it wouldn’t be in 1 year. There is no KFP franchise film out now or on the horizon but instead is franchising on the brand. I don’t think it’ll be marketed as the Dreamworks Theatre but instead KFP. Universal is probably expecting at least a full 2-year use on it until, like Kyle said, possibly seasonal offerings in 2019. I don’t see a new one being added til 2020, when it could be a release valve for whatever the big new 2020 attraction may be (SLoP at the moment it seems, with Ninty 2021/22)

That's what we said about Shrek 4D here in FL.

Was Shrek ever advertised as anything other than a stand alone Shrek 4D experience?

 

[Chris]

I don't see this having a virtual queue. It has a somewhat large capacity

But consider the Despicable Me and Simpsons factor...the attraction rarely has to ever close for refurb as only one theater could go down at a time during off season. I also like the more personal experiences.

Although, I also do not believe multiple rooms will take place for KFP, it would have been interesting to see a different layout.

Pivet and Swivel means they will not be using Dbox or 4DX careers....because they don't swivel.
