[🌎 Universal GB] General Discussion

[dave___]

That’s petty if true, watching Epic Universe get built during the COVID pandemic when there wasn’t much else to do was one of salient parts of the Epic Universe construction process for me. I’ve never been to Florida and when it was first announced I wasn’t very interested because it felt so distant but because I watched the whole park got built, it piqued my interest when it finally opened.

When I eventually visit Florida, you can guarantee that Epic Universe will be top priority out of everywhere due to the commitment I’ve had with the construction updates (although I don’t plan on going back to the states as a whole anytime soon). It has also made me way more excited for the arrival of USGB too, so there’s that as well.

I believe TowersTimes used to have an aircraft operator similar to BioReconstruct when there was a new Secret Weapon under construction, that guy is certainly aware of Universal and if he’s still active in the theme park community then it will have at the very least come across his mind to fly over to Bedford. So it won’t stop birdseye views of the Universal construction coming out, in the age of the Internet, if there’s a will, there’s a way. Social media have mean mainstream for at least 15 years now, I don’t understand why a company that has literally built itself on providing the infrastructure for that very thing doesn’t get it.

John "I don't like drones spying on my Nemesis creation" Burton hasn't moved to Universal recently has he?

I see both sides of it but it's very early in the day for Universal to be stamping their feet. If anything it will just make more people go fly them to get "the exclusive" shots if others are too afraid to fly. Maybe they're afraid of the annoying little hobby drones dropping out of the sky and people knocking on the portakabin asking for it back.
