Super bizarre to release a virtual POV this late when they could’ve released a normal POV.

At least they gave us one. Some of the other parks in the area keep things like this secret.

At least they revealed something, Universal would still say its a churro stand.

Disney is worse. They don't release much of anything for new attractions. It's goes from concept art to its open. Nothing in between.
Regional parks do it best when it comes to new attractions.
i like how disney keeps stuff secret until it opens. Like right now what they are doing in DIsneySea....only getting glimpses of stuff but still noone (outside of disney) really knows what the peter pan, frozen, or tangled rides are gonna be. Im into surprises
Ughhhhhhhhhhh
Think it’s the opposite. Disney will announce their project years before they start construction. Universal doesn’t announce the project until it’s almost done.
Then Disney will drop more and more details as things progress. Neither company released full POVs before opening, but Rise had plenty
of on-ride promotion months before it opened.

Not at all. Universal is the worst offender. They will build the thing, possibly acknowledge a "new experience" and then announce the opening date maybe a month in advance.
Disney at least lets us know what it is officially, Universal took 8 months before opening to announce Velocicoaster officially.

Or Disney announce things that are years and years from opening and then cancel them completely. Better to say nothing until almost ready than announce and cancel.
I don’t think there is a huge need for POV generally, better to ride and it and see.

The POV I like seeing. Mainly cause I watch YouTube channels that do construction updates from different parks. So it's interesting to watch to see the final product. I like the POV also cause a lot the parks I don't get to visit often.
