EpcotServo's Updates #2.34- Universal Afternoon Samba

Hey there everyone! It's a like fine-update time, so click on cheese pine! (Cheese pine?)

UNIVERSAL

-Crowds were mild.

-ROTM, MIB, JAWS, etc....all still awesome.

-Treasure Room Update! Two out of three pop-up warriors are still not jumping out. Falling wall was working though.

-I've noticed this the last few times, but the dropping scarabs have not been dropping lately, and the projectors in the scarab room have been are getting washed out like the treasure room one...It doesn't look bad, but the result is that you still see the room when descending backwards.

-Team Members are still on the whole waaaayyyyyyyy better than they used to be. Keep it up!

-The "Wire-chomping" Shark was a no-show. Not surprising though since it just reopened from a short rehab a few days ago. Also the really great Skipper made up for it by using the grenade launcher to mimic the movie's ending. Well done!

-JAWS at night is also really cool! Never done it before. If only the flame wall still went up!

-Same as it ever was.

-Potterland and IOA is great and all...But Universal Studios needs more credit for being a great park!


OK, that's about it, except for the rest of it!

ENJOY!

EpcotServo's Updates #2.33- It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Wizarding World (Part 2)

Hey there everyone! Time for another Update, and if you think I'd be like the rest of the world and try and cash in on the Harry Potter craze...You're absolutely right! Click on, ye magic wizardy persons, and deposit yon credit card numbers in the enchanted comments!

UNIVERSAL

-No pictures due to rain. It was pouring for hours...But if you fought through it, no lines at anything! Walked right on MIB and Mummy!

-Construction for the Putt Putt Golfing is ongoing, and starting to go vertical.

-Do putt putt golf courses go vertical?

-T2:3D is still awesome, hilarious, hokey, and amazing all at the same time. It's that slice of stunning yet stinky cheese that assaults the senses that makes me love Universal! Potterland may make them think they're all sophisticated now, but I know Universal...Still making absurdly technical attractions that spray water on you for no good reason. Go see it again to remind yourself of what Universal does best!



IOA

-Potterland is awesome after it rains. AND Forbidden Journey was hardly a 15 minute wait!

-The projections in Three Broomsticks may have been off or broken, I didn't notice any.

-The Floo Powder smell was working, and smelly!

-I finally felt the part where your feet can sometimes be hit by a wall swerving into the Whomping Willow scene. A ride where you can unintentionally feel the scenery. INSANE AND AWESOME

-In the Common Room right before Merge, they added a new moving portrait that shows the benches, and how they move. Just a continuous loop of the bench moving around to show what the vehicles motion is like.

-Spiderman had two digital projectors installed, my guess as a bench test for the upcoming rehab. They look great, and will look better with updated animation.

-They are cracking down on glasses theft at Spiderman, they added a ton of more bins, and a loud "GOOD WORK TEAM, PLEASE DEPOSIT YOU'RE SAFETY GLASSES IN THE BINS" announcement in the exit hall. It's slightly patronizing and hilarious.

Good work team! Now on to the pictures!

EpcotServo's Updates #2.32- Do Androids Dream of Electric SSE?

Hey there everybody! It's an Update time, so look under your seats for an Update! But first, let's use our words.

EPCOT

-Crowds were medium to light.

-Sad, there is officially no more TRON in the Mission Space shop.

-Living with the Land is still great

-Huh? Did you say something?

-Test Track! Everything was working except the cones and one half of the ABS review screen cameras.

-In the Spirited Beasts exhibit, they finally corrected the Rei sign that said she sometimes had a tale. Which, as being pretty much human, is just as susceptible to grow a tale than you and me. And never, ever sported a tale fake or otherwise. This has been corrected. You're welcome, America.

-Fun was had.

-I am just padding the Update at this point.


OK, that's all for that! Now on to this!

ENJOY!
