[Cal]

I've heard that their will be no more purple restraints will be black along with the new launch tube. To help with the new hulk look.

Hmm, looks like @Jwhee was onto something a few days ago.

I'm kinda going to miss the queue...for the comic version I thought it was well done and I used to love when they had the music playing loud in there...really made it exciting to me....and I never was able to find a decent version of the music they play in the queue (and no, it isn't the same song that was on the IOA soundtrack)

I'm sure this has been posted elsewhere so do forgive me, what timeline are we looking at here if this is set to open with Kong?

Late April? Early May? Late May? Early June?

 

[Teebin]

May or June is what has been shared with me behind closed doors. ON the other hand, things are a wee bit behind on the project recently. I will share that Nassal and VDL don't appear to be the culprits.

I agree it was the only part that was themed lol. And as I stated in many threads before, I adore the comic style used in MSHI. I hope they don't give it a modern paint job and look, it's so much fun. If they did the launch cannon would just be a muted color cylinder. It would also stick out like a sort thumb to the rest of the island. Make it colorful universal, it's too iconic to change

Purple is going away from what I understand. But I'm honestly shocked it's going to take this long. I'm guessing it'll have a more industrial look.

 

[Disneyhead]

What about animated version of the MCU characters?

 

[yankees13]

Exciting news. Always loved the sign at hhe entrance. Guess I can kiss that goodbye eh?

 

[rhino4evr]

Always hated the cartoon that played during the queue, felt cheap . Love the ride though, happy they are making it even better

 

[Mad Dog]

Always cool to see Universal counter attacking Disney PR on new stuff. The Hulk was a nice preemptive strike. Definitely not coincidental. Any more firepower announcements coming to counter D23?

 

[Blue]

Excited for this.

But if hulk is the only modern looking thing in MSU, can we expect everything to change aswell?

Its best to watch how the new version of the attraction will be in theming but as of right now, its a safe bet to guess.

 

[Tucker]

They should put this in the queue:

It seems like that's the plan in the long run.

REALLY excited for this. Hulk was my first "real" coaster 12 years ago and I've loved it ever since. Happy it's getting some needed TLC. Hoping for some details to see if what was told to me pans out. Nonetheless, this a great start to an exciting future for Marvel Superhero Island.

What is the chance that Uni is saving an announcement depending on how big the WDW announcements are? Say, if all we get is Frozen, Avatar, and Toy Story Playland, then Universal announces something big to overshadow those. If Disney announces something bigger like Star Wars Land, Universal saves the announcement for later to not be overshadowed.

...With this announcement of The Hulk getting redone, DURING D23..its going to make somethings special. Lets watch how tomorrow goes as if DHS doesn't announce crap, I can see Universal upstaging Disney. If not and they announce a lot of DHS, then still..it will be interesting.

Doubt it...Uni most likely will be spending more time bragging about the success of Straight outta Compton which is tracking way over how much it was predicted to make this weekend already and already make back its production and marketing in a single weekend. D23 isn't just about the parks but also about films. Uni pulling a 1-2 hit on Disney (Parks doing well and Studio doing well) gives them more articles.

I could never make heads or tails of the original story anyway. Was the ride one of Banner's experiments, or were the team members/Project Gamma staff recreating an experiment using Banner's notes? Queue video suggests both but doesn't pin either of them down IIRC.

Now someone tell me I'm giving this way more thought than it deserves.
