Still adamant about this going as well as some of the rest of the front of the park for a new entrance area past the gates.
Is it true there are two Shrek theaters? I can't picture how this would be layed out.
Yes, the building houses two theatres, one in the front, the other in the back, during HHN the back one is used for a house.Is it true there are two Shrek theaters? I can't picture how this would be layed out.
It's still so wild to me that Shrek 4D originally opened with much of the Hitchcock infrastructure in place. To my understanding, everything from major set pieces to labeled show controls was still intact for the first couple years of operation, only getting torn out when waits ballooned to multiple hours (they even had to scrap Express for a little while)!
So when you enter the preshow area sometimes you would enter the theater through a different set of doors? I feel like i"ve always entered the theater the same way, but I could just never have noticed
It's frankly easy to miss. There's the original entrance that runs along the Plaza of the Stars (the main drag). The second theater's entrance is tucked on the other side of the building near the extended queue (where Asylum in Wonderland/Krampus devoted much of their queue space).
And re: @Jwhee - yeah, that doesn't shock me. I understand many of the old props and medium-sized set pieces are still lurking in upper floor storage areas. The Vertigo stairs were obviously repurposed, but yeah, they just sort of tore out the old exhibit areas/Psycho theater and plopped a new box in there... not at all "form fitting" to the space.
So now that Shrek 4D has closed in Osaka and Hollywood, how much longer does everyone think this has?

My hope would be that the success of the next Shrek film would convince them to do better than what we currently have at the park.It hasn't closed in Osaka. I think the success or failure of Shrek 5 will determine the future of this one in Orlando.
I would love to see a boat rideMy hope would be that the success of the next Shrek film would convince them to do better than what we currently have at the park.
Plans (whatever they are currently) have not been abandoned, just perpetually put on hold, year after year.Just your friendly reminder that it is 2018 and Shrek 4D is still open with rumors of a replacement completely fizzling out over the last year. We've been talking about this closing since 2011 with so many different attractions rumored to replace it over the years and there it remains. How much longer do we think this thing will last? Anyone know if the Pets ride or the trackless Minions dark ride plans have been completely abandoned for this location or is it still just a matter of time?
I want that 2-story family dark ride and I want it now.
Shrek 4D will outlive us all.
