Considering that they haven't started construction of Nintendo Land in Orlando, USH will be first, which is definitely good since USH doesn't have enough to see and do. Orlando will get a huge Nintendo Land in the unannounced third park. It will be huge!!! They will be unique on both coasts.

USH is getting it... it’s just not in Nintendo Land and is themed for Secret Life of Pets. Same ride, different theme.

The Mario movie comes out next year. I agree that it's an odd fit for the Hollywood park, but perfect for Orlando's 3rd Universal gate. But if it means I get a chance to ride Mariokart in L.A., I don't care if they build it in the Hollywood Bowl!!!

There's so much great music they can pick from. My playlist of Nintendo music is literally days long-- Bested only by my theme park background loop playlist.

Lots of insider posts now that the Jurassic World finale isn't finished and won't be for a few months.
I bet that is just wishful thinking. And ignores the rest of this monstrosity.

On the one hand, this is really bad for word-of-mouth among fans. Imagine opening Indy with the boulder not working. On the other hand, most of the GP actually thought Jurassic World was a great movie, and probably will enjoy the ride in its current state as long as it still ends with a big "wheeeeeeee *SPLASH*."

Is it true that the ride is now closed again and no more dress rehearsals?

If the Mario Kart is anything like this artwork suggests, I'm not sure how the Yoshi ride would be more interesting.

No, it's open right now per reports.

I'm very happy to be seeing evidence that the rumored centrifuge/sim ride system is not all there is to it, and that actual physical tracks and sets are involved. I'm sure there'll be screens galore, too, but if they're used cleverly with the real sets, this could be wonderful.

Does anyone else like the SUPER MARIO BROS. movie from the 90's in a sooo bad it's good way besides me? i really enjoy it in a very campy way.

That film just makes me angry. I can only think of 2 good things to say about it: 1) Bob Hoskins was a good choice to play Mario and 2) The movie eventually ends.
I guess it's fair to say that, with 90's technology, it would have been IMPOSSIBLE to make a live-action film that looked anything at all like the game world, but turning it into shopping mall Mad Max with discos, car chases and a human-looking Bowser was...really not a good choice.
I did sort of enjoy the opening real-world scenes with Mario and Luigi just being plumbers and Mario coaching Luigi in asking Daisy out, but the moment they go through the portal.... Gaaaaah!

So that means the two big dinos at the end are in final fighting form and no longer look like hand puppets singing a love duet?

Remember when the ride had a real name; Jurassic Park River Adventure? Now its just "_____________, the Ride!" for nearly every attraction.

They're apparently afraid the GP will not figure out the "ride" part for themselves. "Oh, look, Jurassic World at Universal Studios. Well, we've already seen that movie, so there's no need to go to the park--- WHOA-- IT'S A RIDE?!?!?!?!?!?! HOLY CR_P!!!!!"

It's always been called Jurassic Park The Ride in Hollywood.

I remember it being Jurassic Park River Adventure. Even referred to as that in the queue videos.
