Jurassic World Ride POV Video & Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лип 2019
- Universal Studios Hollywood has refurbished the classic Jurassic Park: The Ride, turning it into Jurassic World: The Ride. The new attraction brings a new modern color scheme to match up with the current franchise and adds a few characters from the hit movie, including Chris Pratt's Owen Grady, Bryce Dallas Howard's Clare Dearing, BD Wong's Henry Wu, the Mosasaurus, and the Indominus rex. Universal has still yet to announce a grand opening for the attraction but the raft ride began "technical rehearsals" on Thursday, allowing the first park guests to experience it. We were lucky to be at the park on Friday afternoon, and we recorded a vlog about our experience on the new Jurassic World: The Ride.
Most of you probably know, Jurassic Park: The Ride was created for Universal Studios Hollywood in June 1996. On the 25th anniversary celebration of the movie, it was announced that the ride would be closed down and rethemed and updated to match the successful 2015 film Jurassic World. The ride keeps some of the dinosaur encounters from the original attraction, including Stegosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Velociraptor, and Dilophosaurus. New to the attraction is an opening sequence that takes place indoors, putting the raft ride in the center of a tunnel that goes through Mosasaurus lagoon aquarium observatory. And the finale has been reworked to put us in the center of a battle between the Tyrannosaurus rex and the Indominus rex before the riders' raft plunges down an 84-foot waterfall.
The aquarium observatory section responds to real-world weather, which means if it's raining outside, it will appear also to be raining in the tank. Theme park rides have done this before with day and night, but I think it may be a first to emulate the outside weather. Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, and B.D. Wong reprise their respective characters (Owen Grady, Claire Dearing, and Henry Wu) in the 20-30 minute video loop in the queue line. Howard and Pratt both appear on screens inside the ride itself.
I've always been a huge fan of Jurassic Park: The Ride and was nervous that the Jurassic World make-over would mean the elimination of the animatronic dinosaurs in favor of screens. They did do some of that, replacing the inial Brontosaurus with the screen-based adventure into the Mosasaurus aquarium. I was shocked that I enjoyed the Mosasaurus sequence more than the actual huge animatronic dino. It might be that the long-necked dinosaur was worse for wear out in the sun all these years and never really looked great in the first place. But the screens that emulate the Mosasaurus aquarium look fantastic, and I loved how they used it to make this ride an ever more wet experience.
When we rode the attraction the water cannons on the last freefall drop were not yet working, and I heard from a castmember that they are hoping to have that up and running before the official grand opening. Universal has yet to announce a date for that, so your guess is as good as mine at this point. Be warned, by the time we got off the ride they had stopped the technical rehearsals and were only allowing castmembers and some VIP Tour guests to experience the ride, so don't go to the park expecting it will be open and running.

So do they plan on having some dinosaurs on their dinosaur ride?
😆
Haha! I see what you did there.
Or maybe Alan Grant? Ellie Sadler could be cool. How about some Ian Malcolm? Nahhh
Dilophosaurus gotta peak though and ftw, always
How awesome is chris pratt to be featured at universal and disney California adventure. Amazing accomplishment indeed.
Life finds a way
Ha
They should have left predator cove exactly the way it was... it was great! And bring back the live electricity on the broken cage and dropping car! The original Jurassic Park ride was one of my favorite rides. So glad I got to ride it a bunch as a kid when everything was working
Yes! This music and intro is AWSOME!!!
AWESOME ... You two are AWESOME ! Great videos :-)
Thanks so much Bill!
nice job on showing the ride,best one i'v seen so far
Thanks!
Thanks for the video tha5 jurassic world ride was,really good
Thanks for the review. It feels a bit ham-fisted the way they have squeezed the new scenes in, and it looks pretty soulless compared to the previous ride. It's a perfect metaphor for the film I guess. The gates opening with the 'welcome... to Jurassic Park' bit always gave me goosebumps, and now it just seems to be bit of a mess with everything sorta squeezed in.
Really enjoyed the start of the video with the music in the background, new to the channel but have been really enjoying it.
Thanks so much!
I think the Blue animatronic was awesome. It walks a bit and that really surprised me.
Yeah I really liked it too - Peter
Good stuff! You’ve quickly become one of my favorite channels
I'm glad they let you record everything
I hope they add more animatronics and bring back the Brontosaurus. The part starting from the broken Indominus Rex cage up to the chain hill lift looks underwhelming and feels like wasted space. It's just a bunch of TV screens and billboards which could've been used for more dinosaurs. Though I really love the more sophisticated animatronics indoors.
Sadly I think the brontosaurus as much as I loved it was always worse for wear being exposed to the elements outdoors. That’s what I like about the new animatronics indoors. I’m sure they will remain looking cool for years to come.
I went on the original Jurassic park ride and really sad that I’ll never get to relive that experience
super cool thanks for doing this! my favourite ride when i went to US:Orlando last year, was escape from Kong Island
What an amazing editing job!!!! Really good work!!!!!
Thanks Wayne
Thank you for your honest review of this, I felt exactly the same! Some other youtubers here are giving this ride wayyy too much credit. Better to be honest so hopefully Universal can learn from this and slightly improve the attraction. Subbed
Thanks!
Looks cool!
thanks for your honest review. Is it me, or is the ending t rex scene much less dramatic without the strobes, red turning fire lights and fog? Kind of missing that punchline so to speak...
So epic that you guys got on!
We were excited! They closed it down right after.
500th like heck yea love ur guys vids!!!! :D
🎉🎉🎉🎉
btw great job capturing all the action and the dinos even when it got dark , I just watched another ride thru and the person missed like half the dino's in the predators indoor section, so thanks for that you guys
It’s not easy to video tape that ride! Thanks for watching!
@@OrdinaryAdventures Ya'll did a fine job sir!
Awesome video
Keep going🤗
Thanks for watching!
I love in the world videos in the queue. Ah, I hate drops but I can't wait to ride this!!
You’ll enjoy this one
It's not bad they just need to add stuff on predator cove
Agreed
This ride reminded me of Disney's Jungle Cruise with fewer audioanitronic figures than the previous version and more splash.
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾🥰❤️✨🥰🥰
Thanks Devon
Seriously that part when you enter Predator Cove is sad
I feel like they need to add some animatronic dinos there
Hey guys I am a big Jurassic fan too!
Great video as usual! I hadn't heard about the Nintendo Land they're building. I'm gonna have to look into that.
It isn’t officially announced yet but in the rumor sites it seems that’s what’s planned
Dude, you guys are so lucky !!!
Thanks for watching!
⭕ The animatronics seem a little dated. I was hoping Universal would try to one-up Disneyland's latest offerings.
The animatronics at the end of the ride are amazing. It’s hard to capture them on video in the dark though.
Not a bad ride but they needed to start fresh, they re-used too much old stuff. The old animatronics really make it look a little fake. The Mosasaurus sequence looks great, that is some nice high res there. You almost forget that you are looking at screens. For the rest of the ride, it needs to be bigger, has some more suspense and rex and the indominus should fight, maybe even have a bit where the Mosasaurus pops up and grabs the Indominus.
As much as I prefer the original ride I’ve gotta give them credit for the water enclosure, holy cow that looks so real! What’s water and what’s a screen? Is it all screen? It looks so realistic
It all feels so boxed in with lots of walls. The original ride felt more grand with more openness. Maybe it's just because it's a video, but it seems as if there's less to see, and not as many small details to catch as you ride; like they're trying to direct you to look here, then look there - whereas the old ride had all this stuff going on around you simultaneously, and you would miss some stuff because you were looking at other things as you rode. Maybe I'm just being nostalgic, but I think there were more animatronics around you all the time on the original.
EDIT: I'm glad they kept the John Williams classic score for when you see the dino animatronics (rather than the screen), but when it hits the main peak, it seems as if there's nothing to look at to awe the riders. Like, right at 7:21, what am I supposed to be looking at to justify that crescendo?
John Hammond "spared no expense" but only hired one unreliable IT guy. 😒
The ride looks really cool. It almost sounds like the original was better from their descriptions
Actually john hammond would have made it better
True to life IT story though. Spend millions on flash and bang, underpay one IT guy and expect miracles
Completely agreed about overdoing it on things like scratches and blood. Never understood that over abundance with universal studios.
4 hours , holy moly
First, I think you two are just great. I have been watching from the beginning, and your videos are always so much fun. I was inspired to make Oga's Obsession after watching one of "Kitra's Quarantine Kitchen" episodes. It turned out great by the way. I have a question which is not related to your adventure, though. Peter, you said in a previous Q&A video that you got your glasses at Zenni (at least for the green ones). I looked on their site but could not find the blue ones that you have. I have been looking in stores and online for months but cannot find either the style or the color. If you have any suggestions, I greatly appreciate it, but if not that is perfectly fine. Please keep making these great videos! 😃
The blue glasses I got from a company called see eyewear in Los Angeles
@@OrdinaryAdventuresThank you so much! I appreciate your response. I found their website so I'll take a look there. Thank you again! Bright suns!
Why are there no warning alarms when the glass in the aquarium cracks, you would think there would be a structural integrity alarm somewhere.....
It’s in technical reversal so that might not be added yet
The entrance into predator cove has nothing happening. There's blood, too much blood that's way too bright, and a dead pteranodon. Maybe have the pteranodon dying so there can be some movement?
Edit - Moving plants are still there. Didn't notice before.
I agree! There should be more movement/dinos in that part! Thanks for watching :)
I am Jurassic world fans and universal studios fans
😊🦖
I want to see old version of Jurassic World The Ride
It’s still the Jurassic park ride in Orlando
Phenomenal job as always! What do you think about this overlay coming to Orlando?
I’m skeptical it will come to Orlando because didn’t they just redo a part of the Jurassic park area and that would have been the time to start doing a makeover?
I believe so, but with the rumored coaster coming to Islands of Adventure, they might bring the overlay after that. Or a new experience with the new park 😁
@@vlogzilla there are no plans to change orlandos version and im glad! This Jurassic World was a major let down for me and the majority of other guest's
I honestly feel like the screen simulator in the beginning is a great touch but not for the ride. It would be epic if they had that feature while waiting in line...I hope they do another update because I felt like this was too rushed.
Thank you
Thanks for watching
There is a part of me that would love to see this in UO. But prefer it to stay so this way people can have a different experience which coast they go to.
Agreed
loved both versions of the ride! i wonder if any changes will be made to improve it on the official oppening of jurassic world.
@Fox Lover lmao, okay then😂
Your sub count was 9,999, so I subbed. Cool vid btw. And is this ride gonna be at the Orlando location, if it's not already?
Awesome! Thanks for being number 10,000!!! 😊
And I don’t think Orlando is planning to change their version of the ride to Jurassic World but who knows.
GREAT JURASSIC WORLD THE RIDE AT UNIVERSAL STUDIOS HOLLYWOOD IN LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA VIDEO & REVIEW !!!!
Thank you Andrew
So it’s slightly different...
Yeah it’s an update.
I heard this was just a reskinning of the old ride ?? or is this completely new. I went back in Dec 2018 and there were no lines at all, went 3 times in a row. This is a neat ride but nothing will ever top Congo River Rapids at Bush Gardens. It is a real non track boat river ride.
Yeah it’s a resin but it has some drastic changes like the mosasaurus section.
You gotta go see at night again so the moza will be match the time of day. Wish they kept the originals song.
Agreed! We wanted to ride again that night once it got dark but they shut it down right after we got on. We will be going back soon for sure! I miss the original song too. Thanks for watching!
Looks awesome but I love the original. Do you think they will update the Jurassic park ride in Orlando? X
I hope not! I’d love if each park had a different ride.
So I’ve never rode the old ride so can’t make a comparison but this ride just doesn’t do it for me. If it was a short line, I’d ride it but I’m passing on it if it’s a long line. It’s not my kind of ride. Thanks for the video and the info!!
Thanks for watching! Def check it out if you are there and the line is short!
Chris Pratt New Jurassic World River Advemture™ Coming To Universal Orlando Resort® Islands Of Adventure™
I wish Universal Orlando would have the Jurassic World upgrade.
Chris Pratt New Jurassic World River Advemture™ Coming To Universal Orlando Resort® Islands Of Adventure™
Awesome update, btw 69th like😂
I guess I'll never get to go to Hadrosaur Cove....
😂
Who puts multi-ton killer animals on the 5th floor of a small building? Plus, how did the Indominus Rex get upstairs?
Haha
The transition between the aquarium and the cave is a bit awkward
Just subscribe to your channel, can you do a house tour, loved your display of Driods. I collect Driods too
Thanks Grace! We will do a house tour eventually 😊
Would be cool if they were in the glass bubble
I meant in an island.
whats with the T rex coming out early doesn’t it meant come when you drop
It was a technical rehearsal so the ride may not be functioning how it should yet. When it ACTUALLY opens, it will be fixed.
You need one of those wide angle lenses
Yeah, we need to get a go-pro eventually! Thanks for watching!
What's the song used in the intro and through out the video? 😩
We get all our music from epidemic sound, I don’t remember what the exact artist / songs are in this video..sorry :(
@@OrdinaryAdventures Aww man, thanks! I've been going through an entire Epidemic Sound playlist on Spotify and no luck so far!
Should i get an annual pass even though have of the year has passed or shoud i wait till right after December to get it? I just want to wait for the right time to buy the pass and not waste my money.
I’m pretty sure the pass goes a year from the date you buy it, so if you buy in July you have it until July 2020
@@OrdinaryAdventures cool thanks!
I can’t figure out if you’re based in Cali or Florida. Since most vids are Cali, I assume Cali. Maybe it’s just movie magic.
We are California based :) thanks for watching
Walt Disney world did a awesome job again
Thanks!
If you really want to get wet, ride Dudly Dooright ride.
u said cast member! :) lolol
Ha same thing
Anyone know the name of the song to the into?
I don’t remember which one we used for this but it’s a track from epidemic sound
Thank you very much for the reply, means a lot that you guys really care about the fans. This intro always puts me in tears, because it brings nothing but happiness. I’m always staying up late watching your videos, you have guys a bright future with UA-cam channel, I can’t wait for you guys to explore Nintendo land!
I hope they’ll make real dinosaurs in the future....
Lol that sounds like a bad idea
To me the only fail is the large amount of time with nothing, the escape area……needed more raptors or something.
They fixed it up a bit but I still think it needs a little more
Does it still smell like chlorine? The one in Orlando used to make me feel sick with that smell 😖
Yeah it definitely has that theme park water smell going on
Welcome to UA-cam channel for Jurassic world Dominion and get ready for Jurassic cafe is opening day at the universal studios Halloween horror nights 2020 update New series of beetlejuice new maze
Old one was better
Iife find a way.music start
Ha
I totally understand why you guys wait in line for this stuff, like you're doing youtube videos and such, letting people see what is new, so it makes sense, But I can't wrap my head around why a normal family would sit around for 4 hours to ride one ride lmao Idk I hate lines!
because its not 4 hours? Rides only get que times that long when they are brand new, most sit around an hour to an hour thirty. Hell in Universal Orlando I go every week cause I go to college here and the rides rarely get over an hour (except for the HP stuff)
They took out the jump scare? Downgrade
What jump scare??
i miss, welcome to jurassic park du nu nu du nu
Sophia Hopf has to
.......line "fun"..........enjoy!
all universal did to upgrade this ride was just buy a bunch of LCD screen and move all the dinos to the end of the ride
You bring your friend back for more newer videos.
Sorry, we are no longer friends. 🤷♀️
First
Congrats
What a disappointment, they had a chance to create a bad ass ride with new dinosaurs and really vamp it up and it sucked, same of the old thing. Hey universal! You had one job to do and you blew it again, that's why you'll always be second to disney.
that looked proper dull.
very poor ride.
It looks like it doesn’t have the magic
Meh, original was better.
