Finally! Don't like the name, but it's not a big deal at all. I can't wait to hear even more. The queue sounds insane.
That's great news, get to appriciate the skull island scenery way more, can't wait to see more in the future. By the way because nobody said it yet, I can speak on the behalf of the entire website when I say thank you so much for all you've done today teebin. The endless amounts of questions, people asking for confirmation and so much more must've been beyond overwhelming for you but you handled it like a pro and made this already special day even more special. Let's all give my bro dweebin a round of applause here. We love ya buddy
Where did they confirm the time period? I missed that in the press release...
First off glad to get the announcement with 2 pieces of concept art. With that being said I've been trying to tell all of you how badass this thing is gonna be Also I highly suggest many of you do your research and focus on a lot of the stuff Teebin is hinting at. He's answered about 75% of the most FAQ's seen here in this thread over the last 90 days. So much has changed since my scene by scene description over a year ago, it would be wise to clear your mind. I think Teebin will agree that what were gonna get or at least planned to get is nothing short of a true spectacle of theme park design, execution, and creativity. The queue alone will rival Gringotts in terms of depth and story. The RV's are pushing more and more to be the most advanced and unique Universal has used to date. The story will be smooth and easy to follow yet full of depth and time accurate dialogue. The interior sets will be larger than Gringotts and even more intricate than what you see at Indiana Jones in DLR. Then there is him... He alone will be enough to win over the harshest of critics. This has everything needed to be a true contender for the best ride in Universal's arsenal and I cannot wait to experience it next Summer.

The design of the ride vehicles and the queue (which many have not yet seen) convey an absolute 1930's look... very Indiana Jones, very Mummy. That, and I am not yet blind.

I see a period design choice, call me queer. :smiley:
As you journey deep into a mysterious island, your 1930s expedition is swarmed by enormous prehistoric predators. Your only hope is the most colossal ape ever to walk the earth. As the gargantuan beasts fight for dominance, you will just fight to survive. Skull Island: REIGN OF KONG - A multi-sensory, multi-dimensional new ride for your life.
You were on the mark from the beginning HTF. First, you knew I was going to hate its location. Then you said this would be over the top. You were 100% on with everything so far. I swear it is as if UC and Comcast are competing with WB and Harry Potter; that they are competing against themselves!
I'm curious whether the general public will call this "Skull Island" or "Kong".
"How long is the wait for Skull Island?"
"How long is the wait for Kong?"
I think Kong sounds better, but Skull Island is a more fitting name.
