Eulogies for Jaws

Fun detail on the new snack stand menus, the map at the bottom resembles the park layout. Amity is located at the top right of the lagoon!

Universal needs to sell these somewhere in the park.

Played the new JAWS pinball machine at an arcade this weekend - very fun and immersive

Universal needs it at the parks / hotels

Can confirm, great game

If I rode this ride, then I'd say, "Sharks don't eat humans! They're friendly!" It's kinda detracting from the realism once you know that.

Atari had a video game called Shark Jaws back in 1976. You had to collect the fish and avoid the shark. If they could find a machine, they could put it in the parks or hotels!

Today marks 13 years since Jaws closed in Orlando.... At least the Japan one is still open, surprised it's managed to get this far.

How does the Japan Jaws compare to what we had in Orlando? Just curious in case go to Japan.

It's basically identical, except in Japanese. A really wonderful experience to have again!

the cast is also so good on this. I speak zero Japanese and had an absolute blast on it.

Ah, memories. I was sent this graphic two weeks before it was announced publicly and, because I kept it to myself, I proved I could be trusted with HHN details.

I haven’t been out there to ride it yet unfortunately but I’ve heard by some that they’ve been investing some money to maintain the sharks and bring back some of the more advanced movements which had been broken for a while.

Where Jaws is such a special thing for American park fans, I wonder if Universal would ever consider adding an English boat to the fleet. I know that at least one of the Asian Disney parks does this with their Jungle Cruise, where a separate line will lead guests to a boat with an English-speaking skipper. Where Jaws is one of if not THE primary reasons Americans visit USJ I wonder if this is something USJ may consider

Shh, don't remind them. Maybe they'll forget it's there and leave it alone!
