Touche.

^I have updated the previous post with a new picture of the warning sign, courtesy of our friend!

^They announced that the old saltwater reef will be replaced with the Freshwater Oasis. It looks like it'll be a great expansion for the park!

A friend of Theme Park Review has sent us some great new photos from Universal Studios Singapore regarding the progress of Transformers and the surrounding area in Sci-Fi City!

I simply cannot disagree more. Those were amazing. My rest of my report was overrated.

^Does this not count?

^^^The way that it was described was a "family adventure" ride that would be different each time you rode it. I'm thinking it will still be a penguin dark ride with some sort of interactive element and live penguins thrown into the mix. As for the otters in the Freshwater Oasis, it was described that you could swim alongside with them. Based on what they did with the "swimming alongside the sharks" in the Grand Reef, I'm guessing you'll swim alongside their habitat separated by a pane of glass.

^San Diego is getting a major addition in the form of Manta. Considering the three Orlando parks in the company earn about forty percent of the SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment total operating income, I think Orlando is entitled (and I use that word sparingly, as justified only by numbers) to additional investment on this scale, especially considering the amount of growing competition next door.

^Brian Morrow made it a point to note that all three of these new additions are exclusively designed for SeaWorld Orlando and Discovery Cove. From the sound of his presentation, these attractions won't fit into the master plan of any other current SeaWorld parks.

This update is like Biodigital Jazz and a Beef Taco Box combined! Amazing!

^The image shows that these projections are still only on the front face of the castle. The two side images show the left and right sides of the front face as they would appear seamlessly blending into the middle projection. Same as the regular show, just different content.

Details of the new driving experience at the Walt Disney World Speedway have been announced! http://www.exoticdriving.com/ http://www.orlandosentinel.com/the-daily-disney/os-disney-fantasyland-first-phase-20111107,0,815207.story http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2011/11/sneak-peek-holiday-surprises-coming-to-the-magic-the-memories-and-you-at-magic-kingdom-park-and-disneyland-park/

I can't imagine that they wouldn't use the landscape for a terrain coaster, as they already have several coasters whose main attributes are height and drops. The plot of land being made available is sizable and varying in its shapes. There is plenty they could do to preserve the area while adding a new coaster, regardless of who the coaster is manufactured by. In my mind, Muntanya Russa at Tibidabo is a great example of what can be done with a mountain terrain in a theme park setting.
