Skycoastin Steve Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 What? No 1080p POVs today? Even after you did 4 of them yesterday? I'm kinda dissapointed at that, if only for a POV of Jupiter. Was that ride really rough? It didn't sound it from the way you labeled the captions. Was this a serious post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â The one I saw on the "ThemeParkReviewTPR" YouTube channel was definitely 1080p, even though that's besides the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printersdevil78 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I want a 1080p of the height-adujusting toilet. Â Awesome photos. Thanks, Robb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kinda dissapointed at that, if only for a POV of Jupiter. Was that ride really rough? It didn't sound it from the way you labeled the captions. Are you kidding me? Are you actually COMPLAINING that I took the time out to do an update? NO REALLY!?!?! You are COMPLAINING that I posted over 100 photos last night and stayed up late to do so??!?! Â You are EXACTLY the kind of person we DO NOT WANT on TPR! Â I do NOT tolerate this kind of response. You have been banned for 1 week as a warning. Â Oh, and to actually answer your question - I stayed up until about 2am last night working on videos. But I was just too tired to get them totally done because I was literally falling asleep at my computer. I gave up going out with a bunch of people last night, having fun, to work on TPR updates. Â You'll get your damn videos. Be patient and wait for them. Complaining isn't going to get you anything, but a really pissed off Robb Alvey that will ban you for being stupid.

ernierocker Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 ^You're right Robb, you don't have to post these updates. And as always we appreciate it when you do!! Don't let the ignorant ones get you down too much. Â By the way, LOVED the pre-lift section on Jupiter! I had no clue it had that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Across_the_Universe Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I've always wanted to go to Japan, and these Trip Reports just make the place seem so amazing! It's just one of those quirky places everyone should at least visit before they die. Maybe I'll be able to go on a TPR trip someday; hopefully a Japan one! : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loefet Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Nice video!! Â Just one question, is it as bad as it were back in 2007?? Seems like they have done something to it, since they allow people to ride in the back half of the train now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 I thought that you were going to do this trip as usual in September...Still really jealous of all you guys having a blast in Japan, shame though that you managed to go during the rainy season (mid June-mid July) though, I just hope that you don't have to worry too much about rain... We of course knew this was the rainy season, BUT, we listen to our customers who wanted an Asia trip during the summer months that will work better with many people's schedule that cannot go during September. Â Everyone on this trip knew that it was the rainy season, and was prepared. Not everyone on this trip is as much of a credit whore. If they miss a credit here or there, it's not THAT big of deal, because we are in Japan instead of being at work. Â So far, we've gotten every credit on the trip...

Scott45 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I could cry..... Â I couldn't go because my coworker is having knee surgery and I'm the only other locksmith here, so no go....... Â Â I hope I don't get banned for this but that's not a LEGO Godzilla, it's a LEGO Gamera. Â Â Yakatori.... meat onna stick , Mr."cut me own throat" Dibbler on Discworld would approve.

Meteornotes Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Loving these reports. So sad I couldn't do this trip, but glad to see everyone else enjoying the awesomeness that is Japan!

robbalvey Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 I have also just added the Gold Rush POV and the Splash Down boat video (OMG AWESOME!) to the last report... http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1051455#p1051455 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoCo Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 ...but that's not a LEGO Godzilla, it's a LEGO Gamera. Â You are correct, sir. And now for the bonus question: Jupiter actually appears very briefly in one of the later Godzilla movies. Can you name that movie? (Seriously, I can't remember which one; I know it's not "GMK: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack," because I just rewatched that one not too long ago.) Â Love the new videos; that pre-lift sequence on Jupiter looks pretty sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Movieguy Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I could not believe the nerve of that poster who complained about the POV. I really need to quote Morgan's old poem and say "stop ruining it for the rest of us!" Robb is working his A$$ off to put this stuff together for us, and I will always gladly wait for anything, because I know it will be dynamite! Â Hats off to you once again, Robb!

xmichellex Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Seriously, I can't not smile while watching TPR trip videos and POV's... you all look like you are having so much fun everywhere you go. The natural scenery at these parks is unbelievable, what a beautiful place! Â Thanks for the awesome coverage so those of us not on the trip can get a taste of what you guys are up to over there!

MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 *NERD ALERT* Judging from the large back teeth and the shell, I'm almost positive the LEGO monster is Gamera, not Godzilla.  Movie version  LEGO version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jray21 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Awesome videos and pictures! I don't know how you can do it all! Thanks a ton!  Did anyone try the sandwiches on the Bullet Train (Shinkansen)? I sure hope so!  How are the lines? Is it still dead in June like I remember?  Also, the reason because we cant' have those kind of kid areas in the US are because most Americans are stupid. They will steal the toys or just break them, put their nasty diseases on them because they don't wash their hands or cover their mouths, they will fight over the toys, the parents will fight over the kids fighting over the toys, and lastly, some creepy pedophile will just hang out there the whole time.  Andrew is always used to a tight squeeze  Fixed!

I've only seen part one of the last trilogy ("Gamera: Guardian of the Universe," from 1995), but it is AMAZING. Â (I think I'm turning Japanese... I think I'm turning Japanese... I really think so.)

Midgetman82 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 You guys look like you are having an awesome time. The beginning to Jupiter is possibly one of the best (if not the best) beginnings to any roller coaster out there, and that giant flume ride looks amazing!

I *think* it was Godzilla vs Megaguirus   And thanks again to Rob for going without much needed rest to torment er, tantalize us with the awesomeness that is Nippon!
