The Future of Lost Continent

Hopefully they're doing a REAL redo of the show and not just new fight choreo.

...Why am I expecting a Waterworld 2.0 type treatment to this?

 

[Teebin]

So, I guess all of the corny jokes are out and this new show will appear more violent and dangerous? Hopefully I will hear what it is they are going for in the coming weeks.

The project envy within UC must be over-the-top. "I am stuck on this water park project... I wish I was on Kong", "I am locked into Kong but I would rather be on Beijing", "My lungs will not survive another week here in Asia, I wish I was on the water park project... it is sounding so cool"...

I don't know if this has been posted before, but I came across the patent for Poseidon's Fury which provides some interesting diagrams.

If the rumors from OI are true about Poseidon's Fury getting some attention like Sinbad, maybe they could bring back the original illusion where you are 'returned' to the original chamber.

As far as I, or several insiders, are aware of. There are no plans for Poseidon's Fury as of now.

Do you consider that a good or bad thing?

That would be a very good thing. It got rid of the "humor" that didn't work. USH locals rave about the new version of the show.

Considering Sinbad is chock full of poor pop culture humor and painful fart jokes, getting rid of a lot of the humor for the show could go a long way

 

[Teebin]

I actually love the kitchen sink joke...

 

[JungleSkip]

I'll be honest, the one time I saw the show, I walked out well before it was over. I'm not sure I even saw that joke.

It's painful.

Can we all agree kabob needs to go?

Yes, they need to shish the kabob.

Perhaps the changes will be so great that the title will end up being, "Sinbad - The Musical"

Sinbad is pretty bad... But if there is one show at UO that needs to go its fear factor live. How that show is still around is beyond me... It's embarrassing.

Fear Factor certainly isn't good, but it's a better show than Sinbad is.

Fear Factor may well be the very worst show I've ever seen in any theme park.

Fear Factor certainly isn't good, but it's a better show than Sinbad is, IMO.

This is the internet. IMO is implied after every thing everyone writes that isn't scientifically proven.

Fear Factor isn't a bad show... for being a cheap, last minute ditch effort from 10 years ago. The fact that it's still here though...is reprehensible.

 

[Mad Dog]

Any rumors on Poseidon's show being refurbished also? With a more interesting corny free dialogue and a new film for the climax, it could be a decent attraction. The temple & queue are excellent.

Totally agree, fear factor is atleast fun. No contestant in the show has a bad time and it's fun to watch. It does what it was meant to do well but it should be priority #1 on the chopping block just due to relevancy alone. Sinbad however sucks way more just because of the potiential it has. You don't expect anything from fear factor and if you end up like it then it's a plus. Sinbad looks awesome, the fact it sucks makes it disappointing
