Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

^ Is that last photo doctored? That one plant in the center shouldn't be sticking up inside the mouth of the Kong arch. It is 6-8' behind it.

I thought that too originally but I think the kong rock arch actually has an indent in it which causes it to look like the plant is sticking up in it.

Looking through his Instagram it appears he has a lot of ground level shots of construction areas that he really shouldn't have.

He may just be fairly innovative and persistent in getting good photos in the parks but a lot of them read as the wrong side of a wall.

Has there been a new video released of the explorer on skull island series? I feel like it's been a week or two but I forget

Can't tell for sure, but maybe that plant is being moved on that vehicle.

It looks like there's something hanging down off the back on the left side too - so the awkward outline isn't the finished product.

Nevermind, it's already been said.

Hilarious thought that just occurred to me: 90% of the ride operation will be in daylight.

How to explain the 3D glasses? And when to put them on? Don't.

"The 8th Wonder Expedition company provides all of its tour participants with sunglasses for the duration of the tour!"

Someone else is going to have to take a picture from a different angle then because I don't believe a word of it. Could someone find all of the other low pictures of the Kong arch for me?

Being able to find all the photos within a thread would be a killer feature in this forum.

It's actually in the art work.

Is there maybe something on the other side?

 

[epcyclopedia]

And it just looks really awkward because there is stuff hanging off the backside also reshaping the outline. Like painters tarp or something.

I think it looks like that because of how tall the plant is and the indent in the arch.

I took this from Camp Jurassic. I doubt it helps any as it was before any vegetation was planted, but you can see the dirt where some planting could have been done...but it is also taken from a far distance trying to look through a tree's foliage:



and here is a crop of the above photo:



that is the best I have and again it was before any plant live was there....but I agree, something about that photo makes the background look photo shopped...but if that lift is there (and it does look to be), they did some great work in photo shop for the area behind the lift

Good lookin out, Mike.:thumbsup:

I would assume it is true as it is time for that kind of thing; the way that it has played out historically.

So this won't even have a full-scale gift shop companion, correct? Just the ride and a couple of small stands for souvenirs and food/drink?

By the looks of it yes witch I prefer. There's not much to sell in terms of Kong and I've always liked little merch stands in front of rides. The leota carriage was my favorite gift shop in any theme park, still sad they took it away. Also I really they add Kongs roar in the distance. Would really be unnerving as hell

Its a slow Monday, so to pass the time..
I like how they are putting the story out there - Here is what I have found so far.. It looks like the videos are relased first with a private link then they go live a week later. Episode 1 hit on Feb 23, but looks like it went out of private link last week. Either way here are all of them to date that I have found. Any others with hidden links that are live?
