Universal Studios July 2022 - Waterworld A Live Sea War Spectacular (4K)

Los Angeles, Universal Studios Hollywood, July 15 2022 Universal Studios Hollywood is a film studio and theme park in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles County, California. About 70% of the studio lies within the unincorporated county island known as Universal City while the rest lies within the city limits of Los Angeles, California. It is one of the oldest and most famous Hollywood film studios still in use. Its official marketing headline is “The Entertainment Capital of LA“. It was initially created to offer tours of the real Universal Studios sets and is the first of many full-fledged Universal Studios Theme Parks located across the world. Outside the theme park, a new, all-digital facility near the Universal Pictures backlot was built in an effort to merge all of NBCUniversal’s West Coast operations into one area. As a result, the current home for KNBC, KVEA and NBC News with Noticias Telemundo Los Angeles Bureaus with new digital facility is on the Universal lot formerly occupied by Technicolor SA. Universal City includes hotels Universal Hilton & Towers, the Sheraton Universal Hotel, and Universal CityWalk, which offers a collection of shops, restaurants, an 18-screen Universal Cinema and a seven-story IMAX theater. In 2017, the park hosted million guests, ranking it 15th in the world and 9th among North American parks. Waterworld: A Live Sea War Spectacular, also known as Waterworld or Waterworld Stunt Show, is an attraction based on the 1995 film Waterworld found at Universal Studios Hollywood (1995), Universal Studios Japan (2001), Universal Studios Singapore (2010) and Universal Studios Beijing (2021). The original attraction opened at the same time as the film.[1] Although the film was considered a critical and financial disappointment, the show was highly praised, winning a 1996 Thea Award from the Themed Entertainment Association. The attraction remains highly rated by park guests. Adapted by Ben Hurst, the attraction’s story occurs after the events of the movie, beginning with Helen’s return from “Dryland“ to get her friends from the “Atoll“. The show includes the characters Helen, the Deacon, and the Mariner, as well as several “Atollers“ and “Smokers“. The show is 16 minutes long and includes stunts on water, land, and overhead, supported by many pyrotechnic, flame, water, and other special effects, including the explosive crash landing of the seaplane. The stunt show’s unique soundtrack was crafted from snips from the movie score. The seating is in three sections of arena seating. The first five row of seats are the “Soak Zones“, which are the target of splashes from the Jet Skis and various wet special effects.
