    Doesn’t sound much worse than the Avengers experience that came to my city. It was like $30 for a 10 minute walkabout of a big room with the avenger costumes and a bunch of costumes, I felt ripped off

      I get the feeling that most of these "experience’ things I’ve been hearing about lately are low effort cash grabs.

        From what I understand the Jurassic world one was actually really good and they put in the effort

      Or like the Friends experience that is a yearly occurrence in Manhattan. I’m a huge fan of the show and lived in NYC for 5 years, but I never went there. The first time I saw it, my girlfriend and I walked by the place it was at, and it was a shitty re-creation of Central Perk. There were like 100 people lined up on the sidewalk just to go inside and sit on the orange couch and drink coffee. James Michael Tyler (who played Gunther, the barista) was also there.

      Ick. To a very specific audience - prop makers - that $30 is a great deal to get up close looks at costumes and props whose details don’t always show up on screen.

      Sucks if they advertised it as more, though.
