My word, those rigs are ugly. When it is complete it will still look like something is under construction. I bet a few tourists will ask if they are oil platforms.

This is an interesting turn of events, and seems like we're in a twisted universe, because Screamscape has justed posted the following:

(1/11/12) Several new photos showing off the progress of things on the Lagoon have been added to OrlandoUnited this week. (Scroll down to the bottom to find the new pictures.) There is an interesting shot of guys in the water working on something that I believe looks like it could be the fountain-head for a water screen, but I’m no expert, so don’t take my word for that one.

Well I am dying to know the angle of this show. What is the theme. Looking at the 13 films the Universal Studios is restoring an re-releasing I would assume that a lot of focus for any Universal show would revolved around a lot of those titles.

So here are the 13 films:

1. To Kill a Mockingbird
2. All Quiet on the Western Front
3. The Birds
4. Buck Privates
5. Dracula (1931)
6. Dracula (spanish version)
7. Frankenstein
8. JAWS
9. Schindler's List
10. Out of Africa
11. Pillow Talk
12. Bride of Frankenstein
13. The Sting

thoughts?

A lot of those films wouldn't even be worth having in the show because you're still leaving out films like ET, Jurassic Park, Back to the Future, Psycho, Mummy, Wolfman, Beetlejuice, and others

I am just trying to identify some potential corporate synergy, not necessarily what might be the best or or fan favorites for a show.

All of those are Universal properties though.

What I think are no brainers for what we'll see:

Jaws
King Kong
Back to the Future
Jurassic Park
Mummy
ET
Suess
Despicable Me
Classic Horror/Hitchcock
And probably an ending montage of famous quotes/moments of Universal films for the finale

I'm gonna have to agree with Vyrus. While I understand what your rationale is, average guests probably won't pick up on a few of those films. You'll see a good chunk though since most of that list have iconic images.

Films like To Kill a Mocking Bird and Schindler's List also just have no place in a night time spectacular.

"You made out during Schindler's List?!"

Iconic images and they're just engrained in pop culture. Buck Privates, not so much.
