Universal's New Park/Site B Blue Sky Thread

And I would think Hello Kitty would be involved in a Japan themed are? HK, Godzilla, and ?

Transformers is already at USF.

I know! I'm just wondering if that's a property you can expand on in the theme park world; I, a fan, would tell you there's plenty of mythology and versions of the franchise to build on beyond the movies, but a USF top brass might tell you those bits of mythos aren't worth converting into rides unless there's enough demand.

Mobile Suit Gundam, if the movie does well.

And then I'll just shut up about them doing a WWE ride, because I know that didn't sit well the last time I brought it up.

There’s been rumours for years about a WWE Hallf of Fame restaurant at CityWalk.

My understanding is that it was to go where Toothsome is now, but that it fell through because WWE didn't want to have anything there (at the time) as long as USF's Production Group had their working relationship with Impact (which may/may not still be a thing).

From the properties I've been told may show up - LOTR is not on that list.

Can you clue us in on anything, given that it's a "may" and not a "will"?

My dreams have been crushed. Thanks, guys

I'm not gonna play that game, either.

But AFAIK, no.

From my own personal perspective, Godzilla serves better as a standalone ride. If it were to ever come, I'd look to USF or IOA.

Understand, but now I’m sad.

We are still a good bit from learning anything, so plans are going to be changing until they outright say to the public "This is Park 3!"; hence the "may".

Up until last year, Super Mario was in KidZone. Now it's a supposed anchor for the new park.

Hmmm. Now things get interesting. I love the Classic Monsters and Fantastic Beasts, but they’re not huge adult IP’s. LOTR, Star Trek, and Godzilla all would have fit that description.

Wonder what will go there instead?

As he said, Nintendo would be one.

Nintendo isn’t really an adult IP. It’s more of a family area.

Who said this was gonna be an adult park? If we're gonna play that game, let's get a Rick & Morty land, see where that goes.

The idea of an "Adult" IP in a park that will primarily be aimed at 8-15 year olds probably isn't all that important to Uni.

Fine. Place Jurassic World in new park and rip out JP from IOA to build Monster City with Godzilla and joining Kong.
