Universal's New Park/Site B Blue Sky Thread

[Disneyhead]

Prior to D23, I had heard the goal for the opening of the new park was 22 "attractions". I have no idea if that changed when Woodbury got the additioal funds. I do know a lot about the park changed, but not sure if they used the funds to go bigger or just to fast track it.

Ugh. 22 is just too low. #StopBuilding1/2DayParks

Food for thought, what if they use the additional money for both?

How in the seven blazes is 22 low?

Where are you getting these numbers?

Simple logic. SNW alone had three play areas/ interactive attractions, Sanrio would probably get a couple, you have Dreamworks, and it’s likely that we’ll see Pokémon if the LOTR deal doesn’t work out. And you still got two other lands and the hub on top of that. Five shows would also be ideal for the park.

22 attractions seems low to me also. Go big or go home.

Islands had what, 15 attractions max when it opened?

It's how many IoA has. It's not enough. :shrug:

Are we counting shows and play areas? If so, there was definitely more than that.

Both TDS and DCA opened with 22 attractions. One was hailed as the greatest park on the planet. The other was...umm, not.

Have you been to USF and IOA on a slow day...both parks combined have ~36 attractions which I know I have managed to complete particularly all in one day. Remember the goal isn't oh lets keep them here one day, its lets make this a 2-3 day vacation spot.

TDS also doesn't have enough attractions, but that's another story.

TDS isn’t really the best when it comes to rides, either. Outside of TT and Journey, they aren’t anything special.

Hold you tongue. Sindbad, 20K, IJA are all great.

(Journey isn't even all that great TBH. Out of the 5 in this post, it's my least favorite at the park)

Yeaaaa, those rides aren’t that great from what I’ve seen.

I mean, I've ridden them.

If you think Indiana Jones Adventure isn't great, you've got a screw loose.

What breakdown do you believe is best for a theme park? (# of E-tickets, etc)

Whatever Disneyland has.

This is coming from the guy that thinks Journey is overrated?
