Sorry to be curious but could you explain 4k Simpson's thing...is that just like HD projection? Is there an expected completion date?

I thought The Simpsons Ride was already 4K. Not from a single source, but from an array of synchronized projectors.

I've always found it really dim for some reason, my hope is that this helps with that.

No, not even close. Still using BTTF tech in there.

According to Sony, Universal is using four Sony SXRD 4K projectors on each screen.

They are the last remaining Sony projectors being utilized for media attractions at Universal. Everything now has been updated to Christie/Infitec systems.

Replacement of the projectors would be different than the implication of moving up to 4K.

Guess I never made it clear here like I did on Twitter and OrlandoUnited, but I was strictly talking about the projectors being replaced.

Better remove Lorax from the Likely column...looks like it's dead in the water. Kong is going through budget cuts but is getting close to moving forward.

Dead in the water in a good way or bad way? If there even is a good way...

 

[joe pickering]

Would the kong we would be getting be the same as the one in Hollywood?

 

[cheezbat]

Lorax dead? Ugh. I was looking forward to a new family dark ride.
