Suscribe please!

It looks like it's most impressive from the outside. Which is free.

this is going to become a very impressive mega church

No wonder UAE wants one built one in Dubai,  its a money pit.

The maintenance cost must be eye watering.

It's wild that some seats don't have full view of the screen which is the main or only reason why someone would go there in the first place.

He just reinvented the planetarium

You know them construction workers got a good 8 yrs of work 😂

From a business perspective, the main flaw is that most tourists don't buy tickets for inside shows but are entertained by watching the outside lightshow for free.

Everyone was so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to ask whether or not they should.
- Jurassic Park.

At least nobody died.

It must be nice when you can piss away billions on a giant toy that fails, and then just shrug it off like 'oh well that didnt go as expected'

I made a pancake that cost $2.4 billion the other morning. It was perfect. Then I tried a second one for $3.1 billion. Big disaster. My investors are pissed!

I'm a retired digital science center/planetarium director and content creator (essentially, the Sphere is a massively glorified digital planetarium), and largely, the entire field of digital spheres/hemispheres is "One Off". There are a bunch of low budget producers that build (mostly science) content that is converted to each dome, but to think there's an industry ready to produce fresh content week after week to cover $2+b plus operations is absurd. Most domes run at a loss, and are part of much larger facilities/agencies that adsorb the cost... Someone didn't even try to do their homework before building this thing.

Any design that promises obstructed views in a venue where views are the goal…is a testament to idiocy.

I once paid $150 for a seat that was sold on the official website that didn’t exist. When I got there, I couldn’t find my seat even with the help of staff. They were just as confused as I was. I was later asked to email customer service and they never responded even after several emails and voicemails. Once I finally got a hold on someone, they placed me on hold as they consulted a manager and then offered me a $10 voucher to a future event. I said no thanks and let this matter go. For a city all about hospitality, this place was a major rip off.

That's gonna be the coolest Pop Up Spirit Halloween ever!!

I live here. I guess I better go see it once before it turns into a giant dead black ball.

So much money involved, nobody wants to say no.

I’ve been to the Sphere four times. Whatever is profitability/sustainability issues, it’s an amazing, truly singular experience.

To be fair comparing the Sphere to an iPhone is almost as bad as comparing the Sphere to a pancake.
