AND THE RESULTS ARE IN....

BREAKING NEWS OUT OF HOLLYWOOD

Filming of The Great Movie Ride II is well under way with 3 scenes complete. The producers have one more BIG scene to knock out here in Vegas before we head to our next location. With the scope and sheer size of this next scene, studio execs have agreed to share cast and crew resulting in a one week merger between Touchstone and Hollywood Pictures.

As such, Hollystone Pictures has been formed for the sole purpose of tackling this scene head on, creating a palpable buzz all over Vegas of what is to come. Once filming in Vegas is complete, Touchstone and Hollywood will return with their regular Studios as many important scenes and locations remain, still to be filmed.

Stay tuned for your Scene 4 shooting schedule!​

Interesting. I thought that the other team did a better job, but I guess we had our own flare as well.

Hmmm...Warner Bros. themed hotel and casino with attractions will be awesome...well I say Batman themed hotel and casino with Batman themed roller coaster.

Yeahhh, we weren't sure how that would go over. Seems like it would have required use of a certain detective to stay on brand.

I hate to dampen the mood, but I clearly lack the motivation to do these things (especially to contribute significantly), so it seems I’ll have to keep my reputation of dropping out. Good luck to everyone, I’ll probably be spectating from time to time, and see you whenever the next Sorcerer’s Apprentice is I suppose. Bye

You’re freaking kidding me. There’s literally historical precedent for combining Touchstone and Hollywood with that name

This find has gotta be worth 5 bonus points to Touchstone just to even us out. Lol

Naturally our diligent hosts probably knew this in advance and were just seeing if we would find it

 

[ThemeParkPriest]

Nice job both teams with your recent Las Vegas attraction! The Nintendo Entertainment Center reminded me of a few other competitions that focused on video games. Always a winner! And the DisneyWonderDome seems like a Vegas-style variety show (like America's Got Talent the Live Vegas).

Having been to Las Vegas in the fall, I'm glad to see that the hosts have given you a couple of prompts to bring some Disney-quality entertainment to the Strip!
