Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

I'm always scared about others "confirming" other sources when they're just repeating other info (especially without credit so it sounds like new info). This is how we got so many people reporting Fallon would be a flying theater concept.

Given the wording within the article, it sounds like he knew about it before I wrote about it, I just beat him to it. (He makes it sound at the end that he knows more than what I know even.) But yea, you never know.

I'm all about confirmation bias if it makes me look right!

Everything's a mystery. Also, supposedly there's a link hidden somewhere in the article that says what year the 4th gate will open (haven't found it yet).

And, the ending sentence looks like a hint for, Raptor Races?

...plus there is a huge element to this ride that we haven’t seen posted anywhere else. Let the guessing games begin! Who’s ready? On your mark… get set…. go!​

Raptors running beside you like the Ford Anglia would be fun

Who would do that? :sneaky:

interesting how fast rumours spiral into something completely different. I remember hearing about a wooden coaster not so long ago on here, and it's just really amazing how quick things unravel. That being said, I look forward to this and while this might be lighter themed than HP, I think it's gonna look nice in the area.

I think the wooden thing was mixing the old concept of the family wooden coaster with the new thrill coaster plan.

Plus with no T-Rex from RMC being built yet, that's just asking for that part of the rumor to start going.

But of course they got the 2 for 1 Intamin special. :bored: I would have loved to see a nice twisting wooden back there, though.

I personally feel the intamin coaster will fit the scenery better.

Too bad he mistakenly says Skull Island: Reign of Kong was based on the Skull Island movie, which it isn't of course

Nor was Islands of Adventure based on literature (purposely).

Yeah that article is a bit of a mess

 

[JungleSkip]

So looks like some back of house stuff is included with this?



I’m gonna laugh if this is what the “Jurassic Park” Project turns out to be

While theming will be light (at least when it comes to show scenes), do we expect some sort of fun structures or natural jurassic themed facades where the coaster itself does a lot of intersecting, in the old trike plot?

I don't have a clue but I expect a solid effort since this is one of Universal's biggest IPs, the land lends itself to theming so easily as well and they don't want another repeat of F&F.

Your post has got me thinking about what the queue will be like. They have been making incredible queues recently and I can't wait to see what they do.

Hoping for something like the Raptor enclosure from JW with the stables facing the first scene's initial launch, so when the doors swing open we're off... but also flying over the round large structure later on the ride could be cool. Just thinking out loud of course.

Loose pig loose pig! Click click click.

They need to build a great queue for this. Give me that AA raptor on a cage while walking through like FOPs avatar.

So I guess we're riding the raptors?

I believe we "are" the Raptors

What about a raptor/scareactor that pops out of the bushes along the queue to scare people in line?

I mean, the queue will wrap around the Raptor Encounter area. So it's doable.

I did enjoy that year HHN was at IOA.

Yeesh...that's kind of Busch and Sea World's thing...We'll see how it works
