Epic Universe Expansion Speculation

[GA-MBIT]

I think a show at the scale of a HMUS / Alien Encounter-type experience could function alright. Especially if a number of the key roles are animatronic a la Alien Encounter. Any bigger and you risk too big of an investment into performers, techs, managers, sets and props for, potentially, not much return.

We come back to the thought that some concepts are easier to pitch as a small part of a larger new park than as an expansion to an already existing one, and I just don't see a Monsters show happening as an expansion if it wasn't even viewed as workable as an opening day attraction.

So are there any actual details about the show that was in that initial concept art or was that just a placeholder?

Not sure what HMUS is but when it comes to Alien Encounter, was it really a "show" or more of an attraction? One can take it further and question whether Shrek was a show or an attraction? Could they create an "original" attraction storyline that is loosely based on the premises of jekyll/hyde? We are in luck as today the village doctor has created a serum that does blah blah blah and he is inviting us to witness the remarkable first public showing of it. He proceeds to test it on a small animal subject and its successful then he does the unthinkable and states hes gonna now test it on himself which he has never done. He states how he isn't sure how stable it is for a specimen of his size/human but he believes in his research. He takes it then all hell breaks loose.

Then it turns into an Alien encounter style attraction/show/??.

We can get a new attraction and an original story/character that kinda exist in the monster universe, but universal version.

One of those "too awesome to ever happen" ideas.

I am so glad Universal Creative turned down your applications

Hope it happens! But it *seems* like it took a lot of convincing to get a land for the A-tier Monsters as is.
