A King Arthur show would be a great replacement
So what, you'd want a show with the Knights of Ni battling bunnies and shrubbery with The Holy Land Grenade's of Antioch?
A King Arthur show would be a great replacement
GET ON WITH IT!!!!
Imo this is it for LC. Probably the first of several closures. Just can’t see them putting a new show right next to the soon to open Pottah coaster.
No, they simply didn't renew their contracts. With F&F opening it made no sense to do so.I think they finally realized what a bottleneck it caused...It could easily be retooled to a Bazaar
New Poster here. I just wanted to say why is everyone coming so negative about this whole situation. Like shouldn’t be exciting that they are finally taking a “horrible” show out of the lineup. If they Universal is asking for cost cutting measures then management has to comply.
LC is still stuck in the Blackstone/GE days to be honest...It never recoveredIt's not really about closing down the show. It's about cutting costs in a park that has record attendance, even though the attendance increase this year is single not double digits the revenue increase is in the vicinity of double digits, and not replacing it with anything and leaving valuable space 'vacant', in a park (IOA) lacking expansion space and tight on capacity, and limited entertainment shows. It's a cheap bush league move that you would expect if Blackstone/GE was still calling the shots.
Hmmmm...Wouldn't it be interesting if this was a necessity to reallocate funds due to cash running low on another project in development? If surveys had shown different numbers for any other entertainment offering, things might have gone differently.
if it's gotta be, then get on with it. I don't want to make multiple trips and have to walk by another empty venue. A vacant space would be better.2 years is about right.
Then it gets flattened.
I agree, what I liked was I could grab a beer from the cart and sit at the top in the last row. It has a back on the bench and a breeze so the show was an afterthought. I would always go in after everyone was seated, no waiting in line for that one.If they leave it vacant that makes two vacant theaters in the park. The park needs more entertainment to break up the thrill rides. Sometimes it's nice to sit down and be entertained.

Pipedream more likely. This will be vacant for 2 years at least. Look at T2.
Love the optimism. But outside of purchasing all that land, I don’t see what would spawn such optimism with the direction Universal has been taking lately. My faith is pretty much shot.
Simply put- it’s a bunch of dinosaurs running the show.

referencing T2 as an example of footdragging. Was reported that permits weren't applied for until June. If you think the project is flying along good for you.T2 won't be closed for two years, stop with the hyperbole.
That was because during the demolition they found more issues than they had planned for. They have been working the whole time, but are just now getting around to building the new show.referencing T2 as an example of footdragging. Was reported that permits weren't applied for until June.
