PAL Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Universal Hollywood - King Kong Is there a sign? Like the other in-building tram interactions, King Kong is dressed from the exterior like a sound stage. I've looked for one a couple of times. Perhaps I'm too distracted or stupid to find it. I really appreciate this resource, it's a big help in trip planning. Thanks Larry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High quality photos, please (not blurry, distorted or out of focus). Lastly, we are not adding water park rides, kiddie rides or major upcharges at this time, but we are at the point where family rides such as: transportation rides, carousels, ferris wheels and bumper cars are being added. We are also not adding FECs (Family Entertainment Centers) to the Park Index. Our current rule of thumb is to include places that have 6 or more adult rides. And if you have to ability to scan your park maps, feel free to submit those for the years that all not already in the Park Index. Of course any PTRs containing superior photos or entertaining captions and a variety of pictures including multiple rides and areas (Not just one or two rides/attractions) are always valued. Attention has been given to every previously submitted Photo TR. Don't feel discouraged if we can't include every one. Photo in your PTRs must be downloaded onto the Theme Park Review server (not Imageshack, photobucket) for it to be included in the Park Index, that way we know a Red X will never appear. Lastly, if you have photos of a non-kiddie ride that is not in TPR's Park Index, please submit that also. The list of what we need is not complete, only based on rides that appear on my personal park maps. Edited June 12, 2011 by larrygator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJJman Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Quick question - I went thru the first 15 or so pages and saw no explanation... What were the asterisks next to some of the names for? I thought I remembered they stood for something like you were waiting for pics from TPR trips or something like that. If so, I may have a few of those needed Japan/China ones.

JJ Good memory for a dinosaur. Those were the parks on the TPR China Trip that I was anticpating photos form the participants. That reminds me that I'll bug Robb and ask him if he has all the photos on a disk to share with me when I'm out in California next week. If you have any to share just let me me.

acq10uaz Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I have a few pics of GCG at SFNE. Plus a few pictures in the index are outdated due to the recent changes. You have pictures of Captain Feathersword's Rock n' Pirate Ship. Now that it's Ship's Ahoy! its drastically different. Plus there were some changes to Kontiki and Buzzsaw so I'll add those too.
