Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

[WillQ92]

wasnt there a permit stating for construction to be completed in 2021? doesnt that confirm a 2021 opening?

IIRC, the permits had an April(?) 2021 completion date.

i saw them somewhere on reddit, i cant seem to find them

They were on here at some point too in this thread. No idea where but 2021 has been a speculated date for "Jurassic World" opening with new River Adventure as well. Really hope we get a full re-theme and that restaurant that was in Hollywood as well. Go all out with it!

 

[WillQ92]

I forget the terminology, but it equated down to ALL work being completed by early 2021. Whether that means just the coaster, or the land in it's entirety remains to be seen. Lack of significant footer work, combined with the themeing leads me to believe the 2021 date for the coaster.

I would not expect that. Maybe some work inside the DC, but I'd expect the outside to remain relatively unchanged

that would suck. this retheme is to shift jurassic park into jurassic world. no sense of having the main icon of the park movies in a world land. thats like having a microsoft logo on a macbook

IOA's Jurassic Park/World is on Isla Aventura, not Isla Nublar. The DC can have any look, as it is its own thing.

i get it. still odd but i get it. it would be pretty cool if they made the discovery center all weathered and abandoned. they could create a story such as "the dinosaurs took over this land"

A happy medium between Park and World would be nice. The architecture of the old building is phenomenal, but it could use a freshening up inside.

Gotta go to Beijing for this I believe.

oh dont get me wrong, the building looks great. i just need to clarify this though, is the intent of universal kicking out all jurassic park stuff and replacing it with jurassic world? as an entire retheme?

Just don't take my TRex!

I'm not a super fan of Fallon, but it would be very fitting to have the DC learning area videos hosted by him.

I haven't been there in a bit or looked at everything, but I'd enjoy a game show/trivia type section.

i personally thought race through new york was pretty fun and enjoyable for what it is, if thats the fallon youre talking about

 

[RFRees]

Sorry to bring up Fallon again, I think he'd been discussed before.

Yep!

I don't think its been confirmed either way, but it makes sense with the Jurassic World revamp in Hollywood, and another JW movie coming out Summer 2021, when this is all rumored to open up. So id expect it!

 

[UniversalRBLX]

With the decent reviews of JW at USH, I'm sure Orlando definitely wants it to come open here and at least try to prevent a pre-2010 situation from happening. 2021-2022 will bring in new huge additions to WDW, and with a possible 2023 opening of EU, most people will probably visit WDW in the years before EU and avoid Universal until after EU opens.

Of course it was smart on Universal's part to not announce when EU will open. Very smart.

I hope so to.
