Universal's New Park/Site B Blue Sky Thread

[shiekra38]

Well for all intents and purposes it was about 100 yard walk with trees to the left of you and trees to the right of you along the expansion where Kong went.

Well, my original comment was supposed to be about each land being quality and not ending up with a Toon Lagoon in the new park...So, I'll be real honest, I'm not sure how we got here haha

I just meant there are ways to mix expansion plots into the lands without making them obvious to the average guest.

But I did think Toon Lagoon would have been the first for major changes yet it didn't happen. I agree they should make each world top notch with this one.

Toon Lagoon has 2 great rides so I hope we get something like it!

(Yes the land theming is bad, I know)

Not what it was supposed to be

 

[natespf]

I thought the rides would stay but something else would change...

For those interested, @Alicia and Ian of ParkStop Podcast have published their recent episode, talking about the leaks of UFW, with some information to lead towards..



Edit: Looking at the logo, and I tried to make a form of..mock-up, of what seems to of been the used logo. Hopefully for those wanting an image as basis; it helps.

So, we just gonna ignore this? This might be the biggest leak we have so far!

Jurassic World transformation hasn’t been confirmed at IOA or at a third gate just the JP coaster has been confirmed so it is still up in their air where that IP will end up. Again they can have both lands at both parks we don’t know. Kidzone might be replaced before or after the third gate opens with an unknown IP at this moment maybe it will be secret life of pets? T2:3D replacement keeps dragging out so far until we hear an official announcement probably around the summer or after the Hagrid coaster opens. The sinbad show replacement is up in the air since Zelda isn’t coming should the potter land expand over their? What will happen to LC down the line as well? That’s another question waiting to be answered. JP at IOA could be home to 3 new Jurassic world attractions what if the river adventure is turned into a Jurassic world dark ride like at Hollywood? Once the jp coaster comes I don’t know where else they can expand unless theirs some more extra land they can expand on that we don’t know about. Thats why I said Kong should’ve been saved for the third gate and could’ve have left the door open for a future mosasaurus show or a idonomus Rex attraction or a indo-raptor ride where your being chased in the mansion by the newest raptor hybrid? Doesn’t that sound awesome?

@Alicia is there any chance that you could post those leaked pictures into this chat? I want to see if I can figure out what the extremely blurred paragraphs say.

It’s against the rules to post images like that directly on the forum. What you see in the video is as good as those paragraphs look though lol.

..I mean, if we don't want to address the facts that somehow, a Jurassic World logo has popped up in IOA (with an apparently different poster size than either the prior UOR ones) and the work walls around multiple area's have went up, then sure.

However, you are making a post that has (to me), no meaning; because you aren't properly using your editing and grammar.

Also, they haven't "confirmed" the coaster that has been rumored for a long while (with @Alicia & @RollermanDan giving excellent incite towards it). Until the day UPR officially confirms this project in press outlets, it is still a rumor; and should be kept as that (even though it is "it's happening.gif").

It’s against the rules to post images like that directly on the forum. What you see in the video is as good as those paragraphs look though lol.

Hence, why I did a mock-up, to where it edges close to that line..but doesn't at the same time.

Does make me, extremely curious, more in regards to the logo than anything.

I feel like there will be one "surprise" land....something that no one has really talked about.

Oprah Land!

Oprah Land!

So..does she give out free lands? Or is it just Bees?

In all honesty, Universal Monsters seems like the "Surprise" land more out of anything; considering the circumstances of The Mummy.

Old time monsters never die.

Old time monsters never die.

And if anything, if Universal Hollywood's example of reviving the Monsters last year @ HHN has any impact towards the creative direction going forward with them; then we are in for a treat visually (but not as intense, of-course).

So I’ve heard all the rumored lands, or “worlds” and the only one I’m really excited about is Nintendo. It also seems like the park would have a lot of younger kid friendly IPs. Which would be a big change from the other UOR parks. The classic monster world seems like a great idea, but
I’m not sure the public would really be into it. Fantastic Beasts has also been a bit of a let down, compared to Potter’s success.

I don’t know. I’m sure it will be great, but the rumored worlds aren’t wowing me at this point .

The key is how it's put together. A great ride is a great ride regardless of the IP. Whereas a poor attraction is still a poor attraction, regardless of the IP.

I completely agree. I just think finding the next big “IP” is pretty tough now that Disney owns them all. Nintendo was indeed a huge get though.

And especially with how they are handling this park, it seems that it shouldn't be just the attractions that makes everything blend in.

It's going to have to come down to creative directions and stylistic choices towards how and what's being represented; to make the mark. Regardless of the dated past of the Universal Monsters, the reception towards Fantastic Beasts, and the fears towards both DWA and Nintendo for their own reasons.

If they represent the IP's with the same level of care that has been seen with projects like Diagon, Fallon, Volcano Bay, Project:Hagrid and others..then this may be something special.
