Massive Fire Raging @ Universal City, CA
A huge fire has completely consumed several buildings at Universal City in California. The fire broke out at about 4:45am local time. There are reports that some attractions, notably the King Kong ride at the adjacent theme park have also been damaged. Details still not clear.

Makes you wonder if they are the original negatives of the Films or just prints. I know most of their film or atleast copies of it are stored at Iron Mountain for archival purposes along with most major studios.

It appears it was not a film vault but instead a video transfer area which is good news

I'm so sad to hear this. I miss the King Kong ride in Orlando. But I'm glad that no one was hurt.
