Fun, Baby, or Universal's VersionUniversal Studios Hollywood: Is Jason right about Universal Studios Hollywood?
From Danny Bernard
Well after reading Jason's review of USH I decided I would go there and see for myself what is needed. After finding parking (a real dreadful affair if you get there after opening.) we decided to hit T2-3D. Posted August 17, 2005 at 8:26 PM Nice 3D show and I actually thought the pre-show was O.K. but they seriously need to get a new show in here soon. After that we headed to the Studio Tour. It was more fun than usual as we got a tour guide who seemed to be a litlle more "real" than most of the CM's running the tram. Lots of Quiet Areas, they were filming CSI, and a few other nameless crime shows. But we did get to see Jenifer Love Hewiet for a quick second. Next I thought we'd go see what all that fuss about the Mummy Ride was about. First the bad: The coaster is WAY too short. Just when you think its getting started it's over like that. The launch doesn't always deliver as expected. When I rode, it didn't seem to hit top speed. Now I know this ride is very tech heavy so I can't fault it too much but it would be nice to have it all working. The good: The dark ride sections are very nice. I think this part rivals the coaster part, maybey even better. And the launch is decent but like I said doesnt always work perfectly. Also I loved the ride backwards, it is a nice use for the lack of space in the small confined areas. But all in all it just doesnt scream classic. Next we headed back to the Upper Lot for Back to the Future. I love the way this ride is so small and close quarters. I also liked the little touches of Back to the Future paraphenillia scatered on the walls. But it does need either an update or a replacement with Spiderman. Now that would be cool. To round out the day we watched WaterWorld. This is the best stunt show in So Cal and it never fails to get me completly soaked. The cast is always lively and energetic, plus the action is nonstop. After a fun day at USH I think it's safe to say Jason's right. Universal needs more rides! Though that's not to say you can't have a good time there.

Well, when we went through, I think a Back to the Future Ride to The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman Ride. This is what I thought.Posted August 17, 2005 at 8:47 PM --------------------- 2007- The Least Favorite Attraction---Van Helsing: Fortress Dracula- To a Doom ride in a Graffti and New york stlye type of Entrance-> the ride has many fire effects, and many other special effects. Constructing Suess's Studios. 2007- Constructing Doom: The Ride, The Cat in the Hat Ride opens in the area where Shrek 4D is. Mid Summer 2007- Doom opens. Constructs Back to the Future into The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman The Ride (Jason, I'm Changing BattleStar Gallitca because I wonder that the ride would'nt make sense and its better to make a 3D ride in it...The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman. Mid March 2008- The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman opens into a Daily Bugle Building Style Type. Somewhere in Summer 2008- Animal Planet goes to another show, Adriel's Advice "Revenge of the Apprentice" is actually not a good idea, We have to get a another wannabee "Donald Trump." So how about keeping Animal Planet for the little kids. Somehow we need to make a show in the Wild Wild West arena. Keep WaterWorld, change Special Effect Stages and Backdraft immeditaly. It could be one ride or two ride sepratly. If it's one ride then make it to a rollercoaster, If it is a seprate buildings, then Special Effect Stages to a Land Of the Dead Maze and Backdraft to a little Kid Area...like a Shrek Simulator Ride.
From Jason Lester
Wow, a thread proving my opinion right. That's pretty cool. Posted August 17, 2005 at 9:21 PM Anyhow, Josh and Danny, you guys are both right. I think we can all safely say one thing and that's that USH needs some more rides quick. Josh has a good game plan for the park.
From Josh Revani
Thanks, but this won't ever happen, if you want to meet Larry Kurzweil, president and COO of Universal Studios Hollywood and CityWalk, then you have to go to Universal Studios Hollywood and ask one of the Employess, Oh ya, their also friendly, unlike the people from Six Flags...Posted August 17, 2005 at 9:30 PM As I continue... After Summer 2008, with their rollercoaster or the seperate buildings. If it is a rollercoaster they should start building a Special Effect Rollercoaster, like a Fast and the Furious Ride, Somewhere a Rock N Roll Rollercoaster Type, but with Sweet "Kick-Ass" Cars.
From Danny Bernard
Heh Jason I'm having a hard time dechiphering your post as sarcasm or sincerity...anyway Josh your plan sounds very good, if Universal were to listen to you they would be right on track. I'm sure they will "steal" at least some of your ideas.Posted August 17, 2005 at 9:34 PM
From Josh Revani
Oh ya, I forgot this, the line will have a theme style of graffti, New York Street's Style. With a New York Subway Map somwhere in the line to go with the Ride. The ride is a rollerocoaster, at leat put a high drop, somwhere 3 loops, 2 turns and bigger and higher drops, with the speed of 50 miles per hour. The story could be that the police is trying to to capture you and you have to escape and win a money-betting race. Posted August 17, 2005 at 9:36 PM
From Josh Revani
Sorry, when you go, its the race, in the end you win the race, but when you stop...you have to come back and run away from the cops, with smoke bombs (smoke effects) they throw at you (electricy effects) which they try to stop your wheels, (fire effects) Blow ups, explosions. (Wind effects) is how fast your going, and in the top, there is a alike helicopter trying to shoot you. Posted August 17, 2005 at 9:40 PM
From Josh Revani
Well....Danny...They won't, the "owner" dosen't like it. However, if I show this...then the owner will probably do this.Posted August 17, 2005 at 9:44 PM
From Danny Bernard
Yea it should also include a lot of positive G's making you feel like your experiencing a high stakes street race. I think if they used the Backdraft and Special F-X stages then they would probably have enough room for the loops and a few tight almost sideways turns. Posted August 17, 2005 at 9:44 PM
From Josh Revani
So what do you guys like a one building ride or a seprate building ride? I think its better to put a one buliding to make a Fast and the Furious The RIDE. And how about my schedule plan for USH what do you think about that? Posted August 17, 2005 at 10:13 PM
From Danny Bernard
Your plan sounds very logical and thought out. I like the idea of a one building ride better. Since this way they could have more elements in it. Maybey have one building more focused on the launch and race then the next building could be the escape backwards through from the cops. See it sounds like the Mummy but better :) Maybey that ride could become a classic.Posted August 17, 2005 at 10:34 PM
From Josh Revani
Great idea, with the lunch Danny. This could be a Fast and the Furious ride. There will be a girl who is saying "Drivers get your engines ready" and when you go their are effects (like what I said) And the screens in the side could be cars racing. Then in the end you win...there is cheers and screaming, then... a siren starts and its the police, then you go backwards. I think this ride would get a 9 or a 10/10.Posted August 17, 2005 at 11:01 PM
From Danny Bernard
It really is an awesome idea for a ride. I wonder what the others think of this idea? Also I wonder how fast the launch could be?Posted August 17, 2005 at 11:40 PM
From Josh Revani
The Launch could be somwhere 60-65 miles per hour. And the average speed could be 55 miles per hour.Posted August 18, 2005 at 12:01 AM So we got Back to the Future: The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman THE RIDE: Suess Studios The Cat in the Hat Van Helsing: Fotress Dracula: Backdraft and Special Effect S: Now how about contuning with the Terminator because Danny what I heard that you don't like it...so how about putting another 3D, but a simualtor ride, like Spiderman, but you dont have to keep riding on. It is like Back to the Future, but a 3D, with water effects, wind effects, and many effects. How about a little Kid Ride like a Shrek 3D simualtor ride or a Woody Wood Pecker Ride touring around the Universal Stages where Unversal Cartoons are (somehow Jimmy Neutron: Nicktoon Blast, but in 3D and without Nickeldeon characters...Universal Characters like Betty Boop, Curious George, Shrek, and other Universal Characters.
From Adriel Tjokrosaputro
How could Fast & The Furious goes backward.It includes bout 3 inversions,right?I think this time the only coaster that uses this system is Revenge Of The Mummy.And Revenge of The Mummy has a 4-row trains.If it is a looping coaster,the train will be very long.And the part for the backward will be too much long.I think you shouldn't use that backward idea.Posted August 18, 2005 at 6:18 AM Also,why we don't build "Torque The Ride"?If you have Roller Coaster Tycoon 3: Soaked,you will see the design for this coaster.I call this kind of coaster "Turbo Bikes".
From Danny Bernard
It doesnt have to be a high tech stop and reverse like the Mummy. It could gradually stop you then put on the brakes. From there you could be thrown backward and continue down a medium sized hill, giving you just enough speed for the first backward loop then continue through the track just picking up more speed. Also since it would be about a street race, they could just let you feel the launch for awhile traveling on a straight track then dipping down a small hill into a loopPosted August 18, 2005 at 9:44 AM
From Jeffrey Torres
i do agree that universal does need more rides but the rides everyone of you are saying a to crazy and unrealistic. they cant build that. and besides those ideas are not that good. the only idea i think is good is that they should take off back to the future and put fast and the furious. and i know universal has lots of shows but half of them are good so it doesnt matter but i still think they should put more rides. Posted August 18, 2005 at 4:07 PM
From Jason Lester
The Fast and Furious ride sounds a bit like a crazy pumped up Italian Job. Danny, I was being sincere in my post. No sarcasm. I really do agree with you guys.Posted August 18, 2005 at 5:25 PM
From Jeffrey Torres
the ideas sound good but i know universal would never do that. if they were built they would be good.Posted August 18, 2005 at 7:02 PM
From Jason Lester
I'd like to see a Fast and Furious ride, but if placed anywhere I'd say BTTF is the place for it. Otherwise, room issues come into the spotlight. I love the idea of a F&F ride though.Posted August 19, 2005 at 10:25 AM Universal would never put in half this stuff, but it's still pretty fun to discuss and come up with new ideas, then send them to Universal. You never know...
From Jeffrey Torres
i know a good idea. they could put a curious george attraction because the new movie is coming out so i think they should put it somewherePosted August 19, 2005 at 4:02 PM
From Jason Lester
I'm not sure what kind of ride Curious George could be turned into. Maybe a dark ride or movie.Posted August 20, 2005 at 10:52 AM
From Adriel Tjokrosaputro
Revenge of The Mummy is a sucessful(well,at least)coaster in the park.So if they build another coaster maybe it could make the park much better.Posted August 20, 2005 at 7:04 PM I think Fast and The Furious is a great idea.Maybe we could make it tilt coaster?
From Jason Lester
How many times do I need to stress that USH isn't that large a park? There's not a lot of room there. What land they have is taken up by the Backlot and rides already placed. Even if you were to take a ride out, no building there would provide the room required for a roller coaster. Posted August 21, 2005 at 9:49 AM
From Adriel Tjokrosaputro
Maybe they have to buy another space they don't own now and build something special there.That could be,right?Posted August 22, 2005 at 12:36 AM
From Jason Lester
No. USH is pretty packed in with other buildings and such of the area. There's not really room to buy land around there without some serious construction/demolishing. Posted August 22, 2005 at 1:04 AM
From Ryan Milanio
Where are they going to buy space? The freeway is just down the hill, the train station is essential. All I can say is if you want more space for rides, then they will more likely to place it at the lower level. Put it where the studios are, but most likely NBC Universal will not do that. Gibson Theater is the best place to put more rides, but Universal made a bad decision in selling it. Here is an idea....How about a roller coaster from the upper lot that goes to the lower lot? That would be good, but most likely dangerous. Probably too steep and foundation will fall. Well, ideas are what keeps us going. Posted August 22, 2005 at 1:00 AM
From Danny Bernard
Well short of a complete overhaul of the park, there are few things that can help the park restore its former glory. Posted August 22, 2005 at 2:54 AM First I really wish Universal hadn't sold the Ampithetre. It wouldve been great to see Suess Landing go in there. Doing a bit of research it seems Universal has a lot of hot properties on their hands that could be used in some exciting rides. Halo 2007 Based on the video game of the same name, this could be a better fit for a shoot-em-up dark ride given it's current popularity among us kids.Flash Gordon 2006 An update of the orginal movie about a foot-ball playing teen who saves the universe. Then of course theres the obvious choices like King Kong or Fast and the Furious 3 etc. But my point is they are great properties to build off of. Now space. If they rip out the Van Hellsing area and the Blues Brothers stage, there just might be enough space for a Halo dark ride. One little problem. What on earth is that Hollywood Globe Theatre on the backside of Van Hellsing used for? Next rip out those dang carnival games. They just look so garish and impede traffic on the walkways. On Animal Planet Live. They could probably make it a stunt show featuring the X-Men. Given a proper script it wouldnt have to be complete trash. I know Back to the Future is a classic but wouldn't you rather see a new ride? King Kong would fit perfectly, if they just added some jungle themeing and made the cars "boats" instead. Lower Lot wise I think the Special So it should look something like this. I think I took space variables into account except for Halo, which I'm not sure about, as I still dont know what the Globe Theatre is used for.
From Jason Lester
I like your plans. To answer your question, the Globe is rented out for parties and events. Posted August 22, 2005 at 10:18 AM
From Danny Bernard
Well then possibly they could remove it for spaces sake, and build a Halo themed shoot-em-up. It might be finished by the time I get of college lolPosted August 22, 2005 at 1:35 PM
From Marty Koves
I just think that instead of drastic changes that can take forever Universal should take slower changes from a Showpark to a ridepark. I think that War of the Worlds and Kong would be already kinda dated at this point. Universal needs to do something innovative neverbeendone before and fresh to really bring back the crowds.Posted August 22, 2005 at 2:16 PM
From Danny Bernard
Well if you can think of anything I'd like to hear it... Posted August 22, 2005 at 2:38 PM
From Jason Lester
The tranistion should be slow, but not take so long that were left waiting for years due to delays and such. Maybe a major ride and a smaller one every two or three years. Preferably two if that's possible due to space and money.Posted August 22, 2005 at 4:44 PM
From Danny Bernard
Well the park shouldn't be left without a ride for more than 2 years.Posted August 22, 2005 at 7:15 PM
From Josh Rezvani
Well Danny, its a bad idea to put King Kong in Back to the Future. It's better to put a King Kong 3D simulator ride in Terminator 2:3D.Posted August 23, 2005 at 2:41 PM Halo is not a Universal interactive game, Crash and Spyro is. If you want to put a Crash and Spyro game in their, then thats fine. Jason and I thought it would be better to put a Doom laser shooting ride in the Van Helsing area. And I think it's better to put a cool show like WildBoyZ stunt show. Where their are 8 contestants where they do dumb, crazy stunts like in the TV show WildBoyz on MTV. The stunts have to be created differently every week. In either the Animal Planet stage or the Wild West Stage. The Audience could be in it where the kids have waterguns and wet the contestants. The older, mature audience where they have to stunts like hanging on poles, go under electricty wires and up to the ladder where they get their prizes...free VIP PASSES, free "cut in the line" passes, and free Packages for Universal Orlando resorts. For that stunt it has to be in teams...3 people each on 2 groups "teams". The other last stunt for the audience has to do something with cars where they go inside and out above hundreds of feet under sea level. They have to get flags and put it on poles around them. But the cars will be raining, and the car spins around and get the same prize. This show is onlt for teens and kids like 12 and older. the Little Kids wouldn't like to see this, but its up to their parents. Putting Spiderman 3D ride for Back to the Future. Fear Factor is a new show but it gets old so how about making every stunts different. And the stunts could be family-fun unlike WildBoyz. The Kids could enter and do crazy stunts, and adults could be in it too. The Kids has to eat a bug milkshake and have to finish it, take the flag and give it to their parents where they have to go and survive a electricty area where they get shocked. Whoever wins, win a free trip to Universal Orlando Resort and a Package. Speical Effect Stages and Backdraft could go for Fast and the Furious the ride. And Nick Blast Zone could go for Suess Studios. USH's special events... Grinchmas in Suess Studios and USH's CityWalk. Slides (x4), Snow ball fights, and soap bubbles that look like snow. Halloween Horror Nights Mazes...Van Helsing, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Mummy, Land of the Dead, Macy's Birthday(Macy's Party is Haunted as you crawl into a indoor backyeard where all her ghostly friends came here to haunt you), Use mazes lie Buffy and the Vampire Slayer, and the show "Angel". Plus, Rob Zombie: House of 1000 Corpses.
From Josh Rezvani
Also, add these, "Blues Brother's Stage" is transformed into a rockin' graveyard revue there's no stopping this groovin' group of musically inclined after-lifers who prove that in life after death the beat goes on and on. The indescribable, unforgettable memories of childhood nightmares wrought in cold sweat comes alive in flesh and blood when "Scaractors" stalk the night in "Childhood Nightmares," blurring the lines between fantasy and reality to remind guests that it was never really just a dream, Classic Creature Features" maze will transport horror fans through a vault of classic scary movies, where they'll find themselves prey to the terrors of Universal's most merciless celluloid slashers and fiends—Frankenstein, Dracula, the Wolf Man, the Mummy and Phantom of the Opera—all chillingly revived in black and white on the studio lot where they were originally brought to life, "Cleaver's Meat Locker"—an attraction not intended for vegans—guests hungry for adventure will find themselves navigating the arteries of a meat processing plant led by a salivating pack of inbred cannibals with an unusual appetite for mankind, and Best-selling author and creator of the "Hellraiser" and "Candyman" films, Clive Barker returns to Universal Studios Halloween experience to premiere his burning vision of purgatory. Designed, produced and directed by the master of horror, this terrifying maze will douse guests in the heat of Hades, engulfing them in the fiery flames of "Clive Barker's Hell." These could be cool mazes in Universal Studios Hollywood.Posted August 23, 2005 at 3:10 PM
From Danny Bernard
I know Halo isn't a Vivendi Universal Games property but Bungie and Microsoft have sold the movie rights to Universal so if they base it off the movie everythings cool. And MTV is owned by Viacom so Paramount Parks get first dibs on their shows. But I do like your other plans.Posted August 23, 2005 at 3:54 PM From Bungie.net makers of Halo
From Jason Lester
Awesome mazes Josh. However, the reason USH discontinued Hollywood Horror Nights is because it wasn't making very much money and Universal only payed it's actors minimum wage. As you can imagine this lead to a pissed of Universal and some unhappy employees who were working their asses off scaring people every night. Universal has already stated that HHN will not be returning. The event is now held only in USF/IOA where there's much more room for scare zones and houses.Posted August 23, 2005 at 4:21 PM And the problem with the WildBoyz thing is that it sounds a bit to much like Fear Factor. It seems like the kind of show that would replace FF, not enter into Universal at the same time.
From Josh Rezvani
Well, WildBoyZ, yah it can go for Fear Factor LIVE, but its up to you guys. Posted August 23, 2005 at 6:46 PM Plus, Universal are billionares, they sold themeselves to NBC, sold thier Universal Ampitheater. And they sold the Mummy ride for 40,000,000 dollars so they still billions of dollars, so they will hold on their mazes and their stuff. I want you guys to see if this is acceptable to Universal Fear Factor LIVE or WildBoyZ King Kong: The Adventure or Terminator 2:3D The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman to Back to the Future Fast and the Furious the ride or Backdraft and Special Effect Stages.
From Josh Rezvani
And Halo is okay, but give me details Danny. Like what should the line style be like? The style of the cars? The story? Give me details Danny. Posted August 23, 2005 at 6:56 PM Oh yeah, how about Halo: The Experience or Doom The Ride Animal Planet or a Woody Wood Pecker show (With Characters like Curious George, Fievel, Shrek, Madagascar characters, etc "Universal Characters" and "Universal Villians" or a stunt show, Marvel Heros vs Marvel Villians LIVE, a show about Marvel Villians destroying New York. This show contains, fire effects, water effects (A.K.A. the rain and storm) other effects that will make this show amazing.
From Jason Lester
I'd rather see Doom then Halo but that's just personal preference.Posted August 23, 2005 at 7:32 PM
From Danny Bernard
Yah, if the ride sucks though they would have the popularity of Halo to fall back on. Which is to say the Doom movie will most likely suck, but the word on Halo is still up for debate. But I guess even if the movie is bad the attraction can be good like WaterWorld. Posted August 23, 2005 at 9:43 PM
From Josh Rezvani
Okay, Halo is in it, but DANNY tell me what kind of theme this should be? New York Stlye? London Style?Posted August 23, 2005 at 10:43 PM And you haven't answered my question... what do you like about this? King Kong 3D Adventure for Terminator 2:3D Spiderman 3D ride for Back to the Future Marvel Heroes Vs Marvel Villians for Animal Planet WildboyZ for either Fear Factor or the Wild West arena Fast and the Furious ride for Backdraft and Special Effect Stages Let me give you a recap... Fast and the Furious, a effect thriller with 3 loops and 2 sudden drops, it goes foward and backward. The line would be a themed New York, graffti style King Kong Adventure: boat, water effects, gun shots effects, wind effects, sound effects. Three Screens, Live Actors. The line would be in a jungle with exotic trees, plants, and other objects that would be found in a Jungle. Spiderman 3D ride is the same thing as IOA's ride. The line is the Duge Buggy, aplace for photographers with signs of "Wanted: Spiderman", cameras, chairs with computers in Spiderman in the screen...etc. HHN will have the scare zones, and the mazes I wrote, Macy's Birthday, Mummy, Land of the Dead, The Canibal's Meat House...etc. With LIVE shows like Blues Brothers Graveyard Revue, Bettlejuice and the Munsters Rock and Roll show. HHN will be located at CityWalk only. Grinchmas has 4 slides (Near WaterWorld and Hollywood Grill), 3 more at Suess's Studios. There is a snowball fight at the Suess's Studios, near HooVille. LIVE shows will be Grinch Rocks and Rolls, the bubbles that look like snow, will be at Suess Studios too. This will only be located at Universal Studios Hollywood and CityWalk where CityWalk has a big tree, a maze where the movie "How did the Grich stole Christmas" props are. There is also 3 slides where kids and adults could go. And a show where sing alongs with Christmas songs. There is also a ice skating rink which is 6.50 for Kids and 8.00 for Adults.
From Jason Lester
Your ride ideas are very good, but as I said, Universal has stated many times that they are not bringing back HHN. They're keeping it at the Florida parks and have no plans whatsoever to bring it back to Hollywood.Posted August 24, 2005 at 12:51 AM
From Josh Rezvani
Well, just to say...Universal Studios Hollywood is the dumbest, wierdest themepark ever! If they just get some millions and billions of dollars. Then they would become a great themepark. Posted August 24, 2005 at 1:03 AM We got everything, King Kong, Fast and the Furious, Halo, great ideas. Now we have to concentrate on Universal Studios Hollywood turning itself to a gay themepark to a more scary and thrilling theme park. And thats up to HHN. Oh ya, create a WaterPark Universal! We are gonna talk about this. And yes Jason there is room, its right next to the parking area, there is a huge area of grassland and it could be created to an area called Woody Wood Pecker's Crazy Harbor. This is what I thought of putting... FOR TEENAGERS A Spiderman themed slide A toilet dropping slide which is a Jaw's themed ride, with Jaw's Mouth as the spin. A fun slide which is a indoor, slide where the T-Rex Pops out on you. (This will contain a big increase of land) Attractions Woody's Typhoon Hollywood Surf! (A place to boogy board and surf) Land before Time water area FOR KIDS Fievel Hat Slide Curious George little slide Grich Boat Slide Shrek Swamp Slide ( A log which you go down) TICKETS One day admission- 15.00 Buy a day, get a year free- 50.00 VIP Passes- A place where you can swim, jacuzzi, spa, relax, massage, etc. Cut lines from rides 99.00 Cut the lines pass- 79.00
From Danny Bernard
Well I personally haven't seen this area of land but then I haven't really looked around Universal too much.Posted August 24, 2005 at 2:09 AM But anyway I think the fast and the furious ride should nix the single loops and just put a single cobra roll. And on the matter of Halo just theme it to the war torn city of New Mombassa from the game. The cars could be mini versions of the Warthog jeeps. And the guns could be normal handguns. As for your other ideas:
From Jason Lester
I like the ideas, but I don't like the name. Let's change that and then work from there. Right now I can't think of anything for the waterpark name, but it should be short and simple, something memorable. Anyhow, good slide ideas, but maybe they shouldn't mirror the theme park's rides so close. The T-Rex one especially considering JPRA is a water ride to begin with. Two dinsoaur themed water rides seems like enough. My favorite is the Jaws one, I'm a big fan of those toilet bowl slides. What about some kind of vertical drop slide. Those are fun, don't require much space, and please the thrillseekers. And since they can be seen from far outside the park, they get people in and raise admission. Posted August 24, 2005 at 9:32 AM Good ideas guys, but let's work some more on them. Also, as much as I love HHN and wish it would return to USH, it's not coming back. I know you want it and so do I, but it's not possible. I go to Knott's Halloween Haunt for my Halloween scares now, maybe you should give it a try this year. It's actually tons better then HHN ever was.
From Danny Bernard
Hmm. I've actually never been to Knotts for Halloween Haunt. I might go this year but anyway about the water park name. your right it needs to be short and sweet like Waterland, well thats kinda cheesy but you catch my drift. As for the attractions I guess they really dont have much material to work with for ideas on water slides.Posted August 24, 2005 at 10:15 AM
From Josh Rezvani
Jason, I Promise I would bring back HHN, I will talk to Larry, the Prisedent of USH and CityWalk to make these changes.Posted August 24, 2005 at 10:07 AM Halo sounds like a good idea, like the aliens are taking over. And you will be seated to a 2 sided, 4 seats jeep, which a amatronic Halo is in the Back talking to you. The Fast and the Furious ride sounds O.K., probably a 9/10 if it was built in Universal. The idea of the Jurassic Park one in the WaterPark, Its a indoor. Because their a slide where you go down, and its dark and you know how when the final drop the T-Rex Pops Out? The T-Rex pops out when you slide down. Danny, you know where Rocky and Bullinkle Parking is and Curious George...Yeah there is a huge massived land right there OWNED by Universal. "Kicking and Screaming" did a shoot there, but I dosent matter anymore, cause Universal thought that the parking area, the cars will stop and distract the actors/actress, so they filmed it in the studios. Woody's Harbor Sounds good, Woody is a major cartoon character for Universal, so It might be good. The Tickets, What Danny said, might be $30 for Kids and $50 for adults. Their could be Packages, like a 4 day stay in either Sharenton or Hilton or other USH hotels, free tickets to Woody's Harbor and USH, and a free dinner to CityWalk either Gladstones, Wasabi in CityWalk, Tony Rama's Ribs, or Hard Rock Cafe and a night at the Gibson Ampitheater.
From Josh Rezvani
Well, Woody's Harbor is not good, Posted August 24, 2005 at 10:44 AM But Jason, if we have 50, make another USH discusion board. You too Danny, when I make one, my computer just shuts down. And please dont think of the waterpark of waterland, please dont. Choose which one that goes with UNIVERSAL. The name of the attraction will be too hard to think of, but it will take time when we make an another discussion about USH, and we will make HHN come back. AND the WaterPark.
From Jeffrey Torres
hey i have the best idea in the whole world it is better than any of your ideas.Posted August 24, 2005 at 9:44 PM
