Similar Stories to King Kong Battles Back Two Years After Universal Studios Fire on Bing News

By DERRIK J. LANG UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. -- More than two years ago, a fire ravaged the Universal Studios Hollywood back lot, turning several famous outdoor sets into ashes and apparently setting iconic giant gorilla King Kong free. At least, that's how the fact-meets-fantasy story line goes in King Kong 360 3-D, an immersive addition to the studio tour that opened recently.Rather than simply move past the real-life blaze that destroyed the theme park's original 30-foot-tall animatronic ape in 2008, the fire has become part of the revamped attraction's mythology, addressed by tour guides and featured in footage broadcast in the tour's trams.
