Just 2 years after its grand opening in 2003, this theme park was forced to close its doors post devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina.
After assessing the exorbitant expenses of repairing the damage, Six Flags sought to terminate its 75-year lease with the city. Now owned by the Industrial Development Board (IDB) of New Orleans and despite various announced plans to redevelop the site, as of September 2016, it is still an abandoned amusement park in extremely poor condition. However, a dilapidated amusement park, creative vision and clever set dressing makes for endless possibilities when a script calls for such a thing.
In 2013, IDB agreed to let 20th Century Fox film the movie Damn of the Planet of the Apes, portions of the movie Jurassic World and most recently Deep Water Horizons. Three big budget features that Reel Security of Louisiana was very proud to be a part of!
The HBO’s anticipated new series has finally debuted and has made a strong first impression on viewers. Based on the 1973 film written by Michael Crichton about an Old West futuristic theme park inhabited by androids. Amazing concept and writing, superb art direction and brilliant acting, this series has the making of a huge hit!
Here’s what some viewers had to say about last night’s premier…
“Westworld came out of the gate strong for HBO.” – Variety
“From its standout cast to its excellent visuals to one hell of a hummable score by the great Ramin Djawadi (the composer of Game of Thrones and Person of Interest), this is top-notch television in every respect.” – IGN
“Sweepingly seductive.” – Collider
“Westworld isn’t just a theme park, it’s a mystery, an endless set of possibilities for all involved: As one character says, “There’s a deeper level to this game.” Not a bad slogan for good serial television.” – GQ
“HBO’s Westworld will be your next TV Obsession.” – RogerEbert.com
