Yeah... Ok, it's a good show but it's based on Twister. A mediocre disaster movie at a time (the mid-90s) where a film's effects we're more important than the characters, story and basically everything else. Well yes, great attractions can come from bad properties (Hello, Waterworld!), i think i'd prefer it if Universal give a series of great well-crafted action films a second chance than revert to a old and tired film from a dark era in cinema's history.
Sure Arjy, this may not please your love for physical sets and your hatred for the first two letters and coaster paint just like how the 90's film industry had a fetish for disaster films and a distaste for... every other genre. That viewpoint became self-defeated and led to a decade of garbage summer films with the occassional rare exception. But then cinema overcame that obsession, broadened it's horizons and surprise surprise, great things came from it. Sixth Sense, Spiderman, Slumdog Millionaire, LOTR, Toy Story, Shrek, The Matrix and many, many more to come in the 2000s.
So maybe you should take the same path Arjy. Expand your viewpoint, Rethink your own opinions and accept that Physical Sets is a essential tool and not the toolbox itself. If you do that, maybe you'll be able to broaden your horizons and find joy in Universal rides you previously disliked, even if they aren't 100% physical. Maybe then, you can look at a highly-themed immersive coaster with little screen technology being built in Hogsmeade and instead of nitpicking, you can say to yourself: "Wow. Great things can come to the parks again." Just a thought. Also yes, i do know too much about movies.
