The Future of Lost Continent

[Legacy]

I’ve talked about this in the Epic Universe expansion thread (where I still think it’s more applicable): any Oz/Wicked land is going to predominantly be Emerald City. Every place that you could, would want to visit in Oz is accessible from the Emerald City. The universally recognizable set piece is the Emerald City with the Wizard’s Tower, and a hot air balloon (in the Emerald City).

If (big big if I don’t necessarily see) Wicked is coming to Lost Continent, you likely just getting a ride. That’s it. But, that ride will go through important regions of Oz that apply to both Wizard of Oz and Wicked—Muchkinland and Winkie Country/Kiamo Ko—plus a slight detour to Shiz.

Even with Harry Potter, Universal saw fit to build its lands around city/towns near the school… not the actual school.

I feel dust off the Omnimover Pokémon Safari concept and we have our main ride. Tons of AAs, young ones can get on, probably more a 5-7 min ride if it’s the main one plus a show, this feels right to me.

Pokemon is a complete foreign language to me so I would be down for this. But would fans be satisfied?

A wise choice ESPECIALLY if it were to replace LC--there's a magic school right next to it after all.

If they ever do Wicked, you know they aren’t doing Shiz. I’m a huge Wicked fan and I never had a doubt that they wouldn’t do Shiz.

Truthfully speaking if we really are being honest, the IP replacing LC doesn't really matter. From Epic Universe early IP discussions etc....when the park finally came out the most excited attractions and the most liked lands changed. It goes back to every single discussion on this board were people argue about the IP but really the main thing is the attractions and what is coming. If the attraction is well designed and fun, they can make it Labubu and everyone will be okay with it despite not liking the IP.

So I hope whatever comes here is an attraction worth of the park and brings so many exciting and cool elements that it is an amazing experience.
