That's not the Discovery Center it's Thunder Falls.

 

[orlando678-]

oh sorry

 

[MagicFantasmic]

This is gonna be awesome. I just wish they would do an announcement of sorts, but it is smart they do most of the work before they announce it

Yep...no need to worry about visual intrusions behind Discovery Center...(oh wait...Hogwarts.)

This is going up fast. I want to say I can't believe it, but I can with how fast Universal build attractions.

If it goes this fast, then I hope they made the AAs already a long time ago so that it wont be only screens.

It won't be only screens. Too many internal leaks have clarified this.

I've got a very interesting update for all of you. It seems someone at Universal wasn't that careful when they took this picture.

Concept art behind him and blueprints that are clearly for King Kong cause if you look closely you can see the movie logo.

It's not another coaster.

I believe that is concept art for somthing else.

 

[orlando678-]

Oh I thought so because of the bottom right picture

The coaster might be something else but the art right above his head does look like the huge Skull Island gate. Also isn't the one right next to him showing the giant bat things that attacked Kong in his cave?

Yes, that's a Terapusmordax from Peter Jackson's 2005 King Kong. The concept art definitely hints at AAs in the queue and I have to laugh at Universal's idea of "Kid Friendly". Haha.

AA's in the queue? Awesome I loved seeing the Goblins in Gringotts and the other AA's around Diagon Alley. Nice to hear Universal is continuing that trend.

Also, the movie came out in 2005

I like it. We now have two definitions of "kid friendly".

Disney's is "caters to kids, adults dragged on".

Universal's is "kids are theoretical able to ride safely".
