I went to Universal in December... My experience can be summed up by two photos:
It's almost like Universal Creative doesn't think an attraction is complete without a quick splash of water on your face and a screen or two.

I appreciate the fact they shot this on their lot.
I like it. New version of the ride looks interesting.

I believe there’ll be two large AA dinosaurs locked in a battle over the riders’ heads at one point. An image leaked a while back but I don’t think I have it saved on my phone anymore.
Last Scene before the big drop. Lots of new magic inside the building that is the main lift hill. Since it is inside, a great place to plus with visual magic.

Yeah that would be the place for screens. Any screen outside would be really cheesy.

Well, it depends on how all out they go. I remember that the explorer drop scene didn't work all the time and at the speed you went thru sometimes you only got to see it reset.
Most of the ride will be enclosed except for the final drop and loading. It will mostly be an indoor ride.

For a time, accepting it's unreliability, Universal modified the Explorer to teeter precariously at the top of the wall, punctuated by a loud Tyrannosaurus roar. However, that didn't seem to work reliably either.
I'm excited to see what has been done to modernize this ride. I suspect the scene teased in the video is located in the section at the top of the initial small hill, leading the the former Jurassic Park gates. The section following the gates has apparently also been enclosed, which I imagine is to protect animatronics from the elements seeing as that was an issue for the ride. At least, that's my hope for the enclosure.

Wow really? They enclosed most of the outdoor portion of the ride?

Yeah they actually enclosed the entire first portion of the ride (where the gates and the first dino scene used to be)
Also: SCREEEEENZZZ!!!!

Mesosaurus is pretty much confirmed to be a screen then. Not surprised. I was wondering how they were going to do that when they announced she would be a part of the attraction.
I remember that. Part of it is still there, between the exit of Earthquake ang Jaws. Look for the railroad tracks...
