SeaWorld Orlando's Future Plans

Lower your expectations to the basement

Lower your expectations to the basement

Now that you bring it up, this is sounding a whole lot like Empire of the Penguin all over again.

1) SWO announces a cutting-edge ride system for their park

2) Hype builds for the first ride system of its kind in Orlando coming to SWO

3) Ride opens to find out most of the money has been blown in the ride system.

Now we wait for this to be replaced by an indoor coaster in 10 years.

Hopefully the sign doesn't fall on a guest this time.

For what it's worth, I don't think this is sounding like an Empire of the Penguin situation. For one, you actually need hype around the ride and this one simply isn't getting it. Meanwhile EotP had a big marketing campaign and the sheer fact we all didn't know any better, so there was notably a ton of hype for it.

At the moment, S3A QU3ST (yes, they gave the logo the three M3GAN lines for the "E"'s.) doesn't have a big marketing campaign, and there's been enough underwhelming additions from the parks since EotP for folks to know to keep expectations low.

S3A QU3ST

oh dear

oh dear

Also, over on BGWfans they noticed the addition to the name comes out a little wonky due to the font they're using.

Shame they didn’t get the license for SeaQuest DSV. Ride would have been 30 years late but that would be part of the fun.
