Motiongate Dubai officially had their grand opening:

Hi, I've been looking at some pictures for Motiongate Dubai and I have noticed that they took down the Sony Picture Studio sign and replaced it with Columbia Picture. Can anyone explain why?

Thanks!
Care to elaborate? What ride did you try? Can you review them?

Motiongate Visit Review

60% of the rides where still closed. However the rides we did and the overall park design looks great. Very nicely done. Nice shops, nice restaurants, highly themed queues. I love the fact they are working with 2nd hand / classic IP's. This gives the park a sort of nostalgic feeling. It's risky, because lots of people will forget about Hotel Transylvania, Smurfs, Cloudy with Chance of Meatballs, Hunger Games, Step Up, etc in the future I think. But the IP's are a great source for design of the rides, kiosks, restaurants, merchandise etc. And it feels less commercial that way. Only thing I would have done different is mixing the IP's into different themed zones, now there is one zone per movie brand (Sony/Lionsgate/DreamWorks), but I would have preferred to have a Ghostbusters in a New York zone with other IP's or stories related to NY instead.
