Future of Shrek 4-D Orlando

[SpatulaShack]

I mean, they spent a lot of money on Reign of Kong, and that hasn't even been ported to another park for two years now.

Not true. Reign of Kong used a lot of technology developed from the Hollywood Kong. It was essentially our stand-alone version of the Kong tram tour section. It's just that they plussed the heck out of it and made it into an E-ticket capable of existing on its own. They failed to do that with F&F but the general idea was to clone both of those tram tour segments in Hollywood and bring them to Orlando.

If we do get SLoP, it sure as hell isn't opening in 2020. The trackwork for both omnimovers currently being built (Yoshi and SLoP) has already started. It's too late.

They opened Transformers in like 11 months. They can build SLoP in that.

(I'm in no way saying that WILL happen, just saying it's in the realm of possibility)

Transformers was an insanely fast project for Orlando, that was not even a year's work.

If they want Pets for 2020 in Orlando, they can. And if they use the same structure, but extend it (ala Fallon), they can probably do that too; to keep it going faster to be on-time with Hollywood.

This gave me a thought, what if Yoshi and Pets are similar ride systems or even the same ride path? Can’t be coincidental.

It would make business sense. Instead of a twofer discount , they'd get a fiver discount.

Wouldn't that mean that Pets would then, effectively be, an multi-level Omnimover Dark Ride?

Yoshi isn't multi-level, just has queue on first floor, loads on second. It may have a slight elevation change, within a couple feet here or there, but the whole ride is on second level.

and SLOP original versions were Queue on first floor, ride on second floor.

So, everyone is still assuming SLoP in Shrek?

 

[jrn14]

are you saying we are making asses out of ourselves?

I think it's the best use of the space.

I'm not assuming anything with Uni tho

Constantly

I’m saying there’s alternatives.

 

[JungleSkip]

I’m saying there’s alternatives.

I'd say this:

If KidZone is Pokemon, I think SLoP goes to Shrek.

If SLoP is in the KidZone plans, I think the DreamWorks Theater/Kung Fu Panda goes to Shrek

 

[Legacy]

I'd say this:

If KidZone is Pokemon, I think SLoP goes to Shrek.

If SLoP is in the KidZone plans, I think the DreamWorks Theater/Kung Fu Panda goes to Shrek

Or KidZone is Pokemon, Shrek is Dreamworks Theater, and SLoP is Toon Ampitheater.


Like I said - alternatives.

Oh I like that variation... Toon Amphitheater was my original rumor from back in the day.

 

[Bulldog45]

My prediction is:

SLOP replaces Shrek (I like the idea of having it across from Minion Mayhem and creating an Illumination Courtyard...it could also be a similar build to Transformers since it's going into Hollywood)

Shrek gets a new home in Gate IV (Along with other Dreamworks Films)

Pokemon goes to Kidzone (Biggest Wildcard)

Toon Lagoon Theater sits vacant for another decade (Kidding...hopefully) :shrug:

However, it makes way too much sense so I'm sure Universal will do the complete opposite.

That's not a bad alternative. But FFL and Toon Lagoon Theater will never die.

SLoP is replacing Hulk
Spiderman is moved to Diagon
Eddie gets an attraction in Citywalk

Coke Freestyle machine added to front entrance
