Not to have a Potter franchise oriented land/world in the new park would be the height of business ineptitude. Comcast is not lacking in business acumen.
MSW was so popular an attraction not only did they have to extend the queue, it even had its own line of merchandise (I miss my "No, Absolutely Not!" T-shirt someone stole).A side attraction is not a ride, it's a side attraction, aka filler, one and done, whatever you want to call it. I just simply call it not good. Side attractions count if they are good, MSW was not, no matter what the Universal purists say.
What's your obsession with Murder She Wrote by the way?
If you were UC, what's a TV show that you would base a lasting attraction on right now?
If Universal wants to capitalize on their actual popular tv show IPs, the Office Dark ride and a Schurverse World would get added (The Good Place, Parks and Rec, Brooklyn 99). However, outside the Good Place and maybe The Office, I doubt UC would actually be able to come up with an epic attractions to fit all of those IPs.
Been saying this all along.Not sure why Fantastic Beasts might be getting it's own area in the new park, I would think that having Hogsmaede and Diagon Alley is more than enough, they can always just add to those two areas, no? I don't know, I love HP but it's a bit much...
And it closed as soon as the show was cancelled on TVMSW was so popular an attraction not only did they have to extend the queue, it even had its own line of merchandise (I miss my "No, Absolutely Not!" T-shirt someone stole).
JJ Abram's mystery box strikes againI remember the were rumors about a LOST attraction back in the mid 00's on the old Discovery Island outside of the Magic Kingdom. Though it might have been cool, I can't imagine it would have stood the test of time. The thought of a LOST attraction seems preposterous, though it was all the rage in the early days.

Yes to promote the next big thing ("Xena & Hercules") which never got as popular and didn't last as long. Doesn't mean MSWMT wasn't a popular attraction for its time. In the ads at opening it was one of the headlinersAnd it closed as soon as the show was cancelled on TV
Because it was popular....at the moment....it got cancelled (p.s. I'm not saying it wasn't a good show when on TV)Yes to promote the next big thing ("Xena & Hercules") which never got as popular and didn't last as long.

I'm just pointing out Universal never considered it a "sideshow" attraction.Because it was popular....at the moment....it got cancelled (p.s. I'm not saying it wasn't a good show when on TV)
You don't see a Twitter page calling for Murder She Wrote to return like BTTF or JAWS.
TV shows are challenging to make lasting attractions out of.
They literally had every attraction in the 1990 commercial/promotional VHSI'm just pointing out Universal never considered it a "sideshow" attraction.
No worse than your bias against it.... I guess i'm done hereThey literally had every attraction in the 1990 commercial/promotional VHS
It really is a moot point as to what Universal considered it at the time, and your sentimentality for it.
Bottom line: When considering TV shows to bring into FW, if any, I'm sure Universal is going to tread lightly...As they are challenging to make lasting attractions out of
It was...fineNo worse than your bias against it.... I guess i'm done here
But as bad as F&F is, no one would call it a side attraction. Not sure where this definition comes from.It was...fine
Basing popularity off of long lines and T-shirts is not a good argument though.
Let's not forget that F&F just had a 70 minute queue the other day that it certainly doesn't deserve.
What would make it a headliner?But as bad as F&F is, no one would call it a side attraction. Not sure where this definition comes from.
Good eye, that's actually the creative offices for HHN HollywoodAnyone recognize these buildings on the site? I think they may be the old Jurassic games?
