HHN 19 - Ripped from the Silver Screen

[Map Monster]

CHUCKY!

I think that they can make an Usher scary. Look at the director. Directors aren't scary but they made him scary.

I am really hoping for an area of famous actors/actresses that have died ... in a zombified form.

Zombie James Dean
Undead Marilyn Monroe

It's a license to print money

I think that the undead thing could get a little offensive. But towards the Usher I'll judge him when I see him, if that rumor is even true. It's only July. We still have a long time to go and anything could change.

Have you ever seen the South Park episode where Speilberg and Lucas do all the movie-remakes? That was hella scary.

Michael Jackson? :look:

Too soon, I know. I apologize.

Small website update. They just added a media site.

Never too soon for me Although that is probably one that they _should_ stay away from since some people are overly sensitive.

Although this wouldn't work as an icon, when you say everything about the ushers, if they were simply minor employees (out front letting people in and whatnot) I can imagine something like the bellhop costume in Tower of Terror.

Here is the promotional artwork for the event from Screamscape. And I will be the first to say, wow this looks awesome.

Good find, man. SWEET promotional logo. :thumbs:

 

[tiredoldspook]

it looks like they took the posters and a screen,,eh,,,

 

[Drew]

Construction update.Some pictures taken by hhnfreak over at the Vault. This is in the Disaster queue..

Looks alot like a movie theater facade. If done right, this could look really awesome. Tons of room to work with for a facade in Disaster. Doomsday's facade was awesome.

Outkatz.com posted the house/location listing that comes out every year with nicknames that we must decipher.

All is know is Agana is the last name of a very familiar recent icon... guess they're bringing her back for a second maze?

 

[Drew]

Actually, after a little googling. Agana means blood in Guam. So I'm guessing Dracula gets a soundstage? Geppetto is Chucky, obviously. I'll be doing more research.

EDIT: I'm guessing Big Boy is Frankenstein.

 

[RocknGuitar]

^oh. I got excited there. That is a very weird coincidence. Dracula would be awesome, though. Maybe Brute is wolfman?

That's what I'm thinking as well.

I think there's a quote in the SAW movies where Jigsaw says something about it being "your civic duty"... or maybe I'm just imagining things.

Flashlight to me seems like it could be a general movie themed house. Ushers walk up and down the aisle with flashlights.. etc.

EDIT: Okay. Here's a few new observations.

- Geppetto could also be SAW. Unlikely, though.
- Plea Sant Vielle... maybe the long rumored black & white house?
- Hammer is tough. By process of elimination it seems like it HAS to be SAW. Doesn't make much sense, though. Why would they put their marquee house as far as advertising goes in the Jaws queue? Not a very good track record since they started using it again.

 

[annabannaboo]

Brian took some construction pictures behind the Simpsons today.

Hmm, not sure what this could be...

A little closer.

Hmm, Gepetto is a "puppet master" so it could also mean SAW, referring to "Billy" the puppet.

 

[Drew]

That one entrance to the tent looks rather.. industrial. Could be a giant hanging saw in that thing maybe?

 

[RocknGuitar]

that's kind of odd... those first two pictures... it looks almost like a seat on that wooden platform there.

Yeah, they had some of the Rockit models back there. Maybe that's the test seat they'll put out front of the ride?
