King Kong Speculation Thread

Probably something about DC Land too.

DC World is going to be the 3rd gate.

Probably something about DC Land too.

And the Hop Kidzone overlay. And the Frozen overlay of Tooon Lagoon.

I'd rather they keep NBA city but get a new chef to come in and redo the menu. Make it into a yardhouse type of place.

Heat in 6, btw

You forgot the new Smurfs Island replacing the Lost Continent remnants!

Wait didn't NBA city announce they wouldn't be moving out of orlando?

Could something like this be part of the ride? Sure the AA looks horribele but what if it could lock in a jeep an pick it up and shake it while on the other side a dino on screen tries to attack him? Could be a fun segment right?

Considering BTTF is joining the nighttime studio tour in Universal Hollywood, there's a 0.000000000000001% chance it could come here (not really)

That video is frightening to me in a weird way If that were in a dark show building it would be an amazing and creepy experience!

I think we will probably get a scene like this I just don't know if it'll be a AA. You never know though. Great find by the way. Carnival rides like these always have a strange place in my heart and this one is no exception. I love how it breathes fire completely going against anything in King Kong. Hilarious ound:

BTW, seeing the size of the dragon at Gringotts, I am not worried about the size of AA's for the future :thumbs:

I like your idea, but that video is the dumbest ride ever. Cool concept, mindbogglingly bad execution.

I thought Kong was broken when smoke started coming out of his mouth. Didn't know he ever breathed fire????

 

[martymcflyy85]

24 months before opening????

 

[tielo]

Yeh, the ride is crap and the kong looks awefull but the potential in a showbuilding, the right effects, more life like aa and it could be awesome.

24 is that sad Disney thing, right?

Took a look at the construction site yesterday, sorry no pictures. The entire area is being dug up and what appears to be the beginning of a deep foundation has begun. On a side note 24 months sounds much more likely given the rumored 100ft tall temple facade.

I agree, getting this build in a year seems quite bit like wishful thinking. But if it is not opening next year, then what will we get next year (since apparently we are to get something new every year)?
Having this go open in 2016 alongside with whatever is planned for kidzone would be smart though, people will be even more likely to get a two park ticket and crowds will be spread throughout both parks.

HTF posted that the Trikes plot has been seeing activity. So I'm gonna guess JP expansion and Gardens of Allah museum for 2015.
