I think this is a testament to the creators cause we have all seen photos and videos of it being built. We know it's fake, theme park magic.
But it still breaks my brain a little to see it being hollow when it's been there like real rock for almost 3 decades.

Introducing Hugo: the first human companion robot.
At Boston Dynamics, I was Chief Strategy Officer, bringing robots into the real world.
My co-founder, Farbod Farshidian, led research at the RAI Institute.
Together, 15+ years teaching robots to run, jump, and work.
So we asked: what if robots could connect with people?
Hugo runs on the first Vision-Language-Expression (VLE) model.
He links what he sees and hears to movement, expression, and gesture.
He notices you, reads the room, and reacts in real time.
And he's only the first.
Dynamic Creatures is @BostonDynamics' official entertainment and hospitality partner.
We're building a cast of characters with film studios, resorts, and theme parks.

A look behind the scenes at Radiator Springs Racers! 🏁
This operator control panel at Disney California Adventure features a detailed track layout, illuminated indicators, and ride controls.
Pretty fascinating to see the technology behind the attraction!

For the Halloween season, I wanted to draw Bob (one of favorite Minions) dressed up as a ghost.

The odds of a restraint failure on a B&M without severe negligence is near a statistical impossibility. So if ppl are not wrong about what happened to eject the rider and restraint failure is the culprit, there is an unbelievable amount of negligence happening at SFOG.
I’ll still ask that we wait for official confirmation about what happened before continuing the mass speculation as facts.
Can everyone please wait for official reports for whatever is happening with Goliath @ Six Flags Over Georgia instead of taking LARPers on Reddit as authority.
Nearly everything said on Reddit in the immediate aftermath of the Stardust Racers incident last Fall was false.
That said this is looking very serious. Prayers to any potential victims of whatever incident happened.

Having performed in this show for years, it has always been a dream of mine to convince leadership to give this entire venue a well deserved update. Well they said yes! And we did!
Much of what you’ve always loved about this show has remained but new surprises await and now, more than a fresh coat of paint, an entire visual reimagining from floor to ceiling!
Our entire project team has been passionate about giving this year one attraction the very best treatment. More to come but we are so thrilled to present this tribute to 100 years of Universal Horror along with our @blumhouse partners. Horror, humor and respect to Universal, the studio that created the horror movie genre!
Just Announced: Universal Horror Make-Up Show featuring Blumhouse.

Vekoma just dropped a new trackless dark ride concept.
The Graphical Route Generator is particularly interesting allowing parks to visualize a new layout in sumaltion, upload it to the ride vehicle, and execute the new movements

Lesson 17:
Test and truly understand the appeal of your IP before your drop a $1 BILLION of theme park capital into a project.
Universal got this one right.

Efteling, Phantasialand and Parc Asterix combined make less than Disney.
I’m sure the Lakeshore Lodge will be nice in its own modern way, but the lack of theming on the outside of the building really is laughable.

NEW: we may have our first clue as to the ride system for Pokemon at Lost Continent! The contractor on this new NOC for LC does omnimovers which is the rumored ride system for pokemon. This is a UK company so maybe universal got a package deal for two of them the other being Paddington at Universal UK which is also rumored to be an Omnimover.

Getting THIS close to a high quality animatronic will never cease to amaze me! Beck in the pre show of Rise of the Resistance is a must experience for any first time guest. 🚀

This is a tough space... making an experience that's just a few hours feel "worth it".... escape rooms have done it pretty well .. but time will tell..
Im gonna take the over just because Disney really wants to have activities at springs. So they may be extra supportive? – at Kissimmee, FL
