I want to see the Western Street shootout come back. It was always fun and a little break from the action of the tour.
I think this would be an awesome idea, but I also fear that it isn't realized or practical. To have someone drive a real DeLorean all night long would be wasteful. If this was for only the summer of 2015, I could understand it. The tour was always about bringing the locations of the world to life in the backlot and this would stay true to something they have not done in a long time... something practical!
I know it'd be slightly impractical and expensive, but to be a new thing on the night tour (let's say, 7 to 10) wouldn't be THAT bad, especially to celebrate BTTF in 2015!
It doesn't have to be too long either. Have stunt guy Doc on the roof top trying to connect the wires on the clock tower, have sound effects and lighting for the "storm". Have the DeLorean with Marty waiting for the alarm to go off at the end of the street. DeLorean start to drive towards the cord, Doc swings down like Spiderman, explosion special effect at the top of the clock tower, have fiber optics make the wire glow with "lightning" and then have the DeLorean disappear into an explosion and fog blast. End it with Doc dancing on the street and Marty running toward Doc saying "I'm back...I'm back from the future" and he faints. The end.
The DeLorean would have to only drive one time in a line towards the blast each time, not too bad.
I still think the tour needs more action and practical effects and demonstrations like in years past.
More or less of what could happen with the Delorean, have it as a Projected image as they will have to close the Tour for 30 to a hour to get Actors on the lot, etc...But point being, they can do a projected wall that's quick to assemble and have the projectors on the rooftops of the Sets around CourtHouse to further make it work.. *Slides to the dark room
It wouldn't take that long to get actors prepped on the lot if everything is in place already. A projected DeLorean wouldn't work with the layout of the set if they want to make it fit the film.
I'd actauly love to just see some added things for the NightTime tour at the old Fast & Furious location, they could do something if they wanted to retheme that particular section of the tour to something new.
If not on the courthouse square set, they could enclose the old F&F animation, build a forced perspective 2015 Courthouse Square set and use one of Kuka arm cars with a fiberglass DeLorean on it and have it "fly around" with some effects. That'd be cool
