Universal Orlando Resort Misc Refurbs

[Alicia]

Did not know about this but that looks awesome.

Only problem I see is that the snow has to be cleaned and painted constantly. (Aka Antartica @ SW)

Yea that is an issue. This concept has animatronics out in broad sunlight too. After Jurassic, not sure Universal wants to deal with that again. Even an awning to minimize damage would help.

I don’t know where this would go, but last night and during the day I saw some drones flying around the parks, one in hogsmade, and one my the hulk... could this be for anything or just some random people. Both were at separate times during the day.

Possibly just recording for a commercial or the upcoming British show,

Also, Tim would be Woo'ed if he ever tried doing that.

The only thing that would be legal and sensible is the British TV Special being filmed on Universal property, but it may depend on the quality and type of drone that they are using to determine that more further than anything.

It definitely could have been for a commercial because they were filming for one last night, but the drone looked like a DJI phantom so my guess is for the British tv special! Totally forgot about that!

If it's a phantom, the only one that would make sense is the Phantom 4 Pro, as that has the capabilities to use 4K. Was it by chance colored black or white?

I really couldn’t tell it was really high up! I would think for the commercial they would use a separate drone and camera, but it possibly could have been an inspire?

 

[Dancapt]

They were filming harry potter celebration with a DJI Inspire, so its definitely possible.

Didn’t know where else to put this:

 

[Ridgepole]

Maybe a projection structure in central park built offsite?

 

[Alicia]

Didn’t know where else to put this:

We’ve been postulating about this in the Jurassic Park expansion thread. Could it be the temporary raptor encounter being moved elsewhere in the land, so construction could begin on a rumored new attraction?

The address on the permit, 5900 Universal Blvd, is the address for USF.

The address on the permit, 5900 Universal Blvd, is the address for USF.

He's got a point there. What address has been on similar permits we now know were for IOA? like for the Potter Coaster.

I honestly don't know what to make of the address. They've only recently started using 5900 on permits. For example, they filed all the HHN Permits using that address, then closed them and re-filed them with the typical 1000 Universal Studios Plaza address. Also of note, all the Project 634 (USF Lagoon Show) permits were filed with the usual 1000 address too.

Another interesting data point is that some of the Project 942 (Potter coaster) permits were filed with an address of 6000 Universal Studios, which is the CityWalk address.

Bottom line: Do addresses mean anything?

My mailman says yes, but theme parks in Orlando seem to work differently.
