Freak Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 What do you guys think of the new AVP announcement? This will be the "freak-out" maze going in sound stage 747. Count me excited. My disappointment from last year is starting to fade off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridesandstuff Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) “‘AVP: Alien vs. Predator’ is by far the most technically complicated and ambitious maze we’ve ever created for ‘Halloween Horror Nights,’” said John Murdy, Creative Director for Universal Studios Hollywood and Executive Producer of “Halloween Horror Nights.” “It’s a monumental undertaking to recreate these massive, iconic characters for a live event. Fortunately, we have the expert assistance of Academy Award-winning make-up artists, Tom Woodruff and Alec Gillis from Amalgamated Dynamic Inc. (ADI), the special effects geniuses behind the original creatures for the AVP film franchise. Tom and Alec and the ADI team are excited about our maze and have graciously allowed us to cast from their original molds so that our maze will be absolutely authentic to the movies.” Edited August 5, 2014 by Ridesandstuff 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grindhousehero13 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 on one hand I'm excited for Xenomorphs on the other I'm worried about the predators looking goofy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurseddragon Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 on one hand I'm excited for Xenomorphs on the other I'm worried about the predators looking goofy. I hope they all look they got tree-raped. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero56 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Seems like Orlando is basing more on the game where Hollywood's maze is based more on Requiem. So what the heck is that rusty wall if it isn't the Whaling Station! Also if ADI is helping them and letting them use original molds those costumes are going to look amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 I'm excited for the puppets alone. I guess I need to watch Requiem. **Sigh** I have to watch a bad movie for HHN. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grindhousehero13 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 im sure it will look life like and the predator is a cool character but they do tend to have Power ranger stances and have kinda oversized heads I just feel like it's a hard thing to pull of live...or I'm just thinking too much of Bill and Ted's Predator from 2008 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 Imagine the 3D digital mapping they can do for the cloaking effect on the predators. AAAAHHHH!! That would be awesome! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To reply to your comment on the Speculation thread, in the description for the maze it says a ship crash lands in a remote section of America where they "escape" into the countryside. Same thing happens in Requiem... does this mean Predalien? I sure freaking hope so 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero56 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 They are going to need to add extra security in there because I'm not going to be able to restrain myself from hugging all the Aliens and Predators 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant find it nvm found it Im still hoping its not just requiem, but a combination of the two Edited August 5, 2014 by Ridesandstuff 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTH316 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) The trailer seemed very general with footage from both movies, so I think this will be basically an "original" version of the concept, perhaps with a few odes to the movies. Think Kill, Jason, Kill. I hope that the queue will feature clips from all the movies! Edited August 5, 2014 by DTH316 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deliciousoatmeal Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I noticed something strange. I was watching the AVPR trailer cause I haven't seen the movie, and the Aliens sound identical to the vampires in the FDTD cast interview announcement. Could that have been a hint that we all missed? Prob just a coincidence but still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horror lover Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I think this actually has potential to be Maze of the Year for Hollywood... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a stock noise they used (which clearly is the Xenomorph). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they would use projection mapping on a scareactor as it would ruin the effect. The closest we'll probably get to the Predator's cloaking device is a pepper's ghost effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
