So based on these recent rumors, people can get into the jub for free and get to watch a fountain and firework show for free??Seems like that should be privileged for paying guests.

Technically, there’s been no confirmation about fireworks or fountain shows. Just restaurants as the theory. I wouldn’t mind the fountain being on. The fireworks situation is a bit different, especially if the 6pm time frame is accurate.

All that being said, I guess we don’t know if this will actually be happening in 2 years or not.

If they do this, they might want to test it out first. There's potential for crowds too dense for the area, especially on busy nights.

Couple random thoughts I’ve been kicking around.
1. The angle of the entrance makes me think most park visitors will go right upon entering EU.
2. Most restaurants on the right side have been delayed.
3. We know from Alicia’s reporting that they ran out of time to finish those buildings.
4. Bottles necks and crowds may be more dispersed if those resturaunts aren’t there at opening. Imagine people trying to get in/leave the Zephyr Market with opening year crowds entering the park right there.

I imagine most people who live in Orlando already get to watch firework shows for free.

It's not like there aren't 5-6 apartment complexes and a global company that overlooks the park in the vicinity

I am very excited by the amount of rock work rumored for Dragons.

Just think… if it wasn’t for Covid, Epic Universe would probably be open by now!

Wow, very different than the sample which looked like black but iridescent...

Might depend on the lighting or angle. The sample was similar colors, just appeared darker.

I wonder if there will be any spot lights facing towards the building.

Looks like instead of panels it’s single tiles!

I think this is just for like a border at the lower level near the lobby. I doubt they’ll be doing tiny tiles over the entire thing from just a time/manpower perspective

I wonder if it will be graduated from bottom to top and look like layers of shifting color?
