Universal Studios Hollywood Opens “King Kong 360 3-D” To Fanfare

“Ladies and gentlemen, look at Kong, the Eighth Wonder of the World.”

-Carl Denham, King Kong (1933)

Just two years after a fire destroyed the Universal Studios Hollywood backlot, the southern California theme park’s most entertaining attraction makes its return in King Kong 360 3-D!

Unveiling today as part of the Universal Studios Hollywood Tram Tour, visitors will get their first look at the newly designed, high-tech world of the famous ape.

Climb aboard!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO… that’s gonna be AWESOME!!!

Guests on the park-favorite backlot tram tour can expect all the thrills of the original attraction, but with the added bonus of Peter Jackson’s concept and the ever popular 3-D technology.

Universal Studios show producer Valerie Johnson-Redrow said, “the initial thought was, of course, to go back to Peter Jackson’s 2005 film and re-imagine KING KONG in an entirely new way for the studio tour.”

Before boarding the tram, riders are given 3-D glasses and instructed by Jackson in a video when to don them for the brawl, which at one point cleverly depicts the last car of the tram being ripped off. (AP)

Sound like fun? Check back for my review after I have a one-on-one with old Banana Breath next week.
