Universal's New Park/Site B Blue Sky Thread

@Andy you have some explaining to do. What the heck is going on?

Pretty sure he's messing with you with that one.

Besides Uni and WB doesn’t anyone really care about Fantastic Beasts?

 

[Collin Salvo]

It's probably Cats.

In the West the week is long.

The silver cat feeds when blue meets yellow in the west.

A trip to China sounds nice, if you tread lightly.

If it's quality, people will care.

It's probably Cats.

LOL it's not Cats

 

[RFRees]

That's what I was referring to.

Mario, Yoshi, and DK are in the same universe. It makes sense to keep them together. The DW IPs are not.

 

[Magic-Man]

....Nickelodeon?

Swiper no swiping!

Scooby Doo would be cool. But they won't put two "scary" themes in one park.

If its Cats honestly make it a screen ride with the awful CGI from the new movie. So yes, screens. It'd be so funny.

Fantastic Beasts box office isn't strong but the Potter brand is, plus, quality attractions. Other than Nintendo some of these rumored/speculated lands aren't based on the highest grossing IPs (although strong of course) but I Think the sell here is going to be Universal's innovation, immersiveness, and high level attractions. Universal has shown as someone else said, that they are not afraid to bush boundaries of what a theme park can be. They have a lot of $ from Comcast and Potter, so I expect them to go all out here.

Any chance that we could possibly get some anime themed lands in this park?

Scoob ain't scary. Not in the way Monsters will be. "Fun spooky" is a different thing. Not saying Scooby is coming or anything, but I don't think the things are incompatible

No.

Agreed. Throw down a young Dumbledore attraction and it'll catch attention.

No.

You're ruling out Pokemon, forgetting Pokemon, or not counting it as anime?

 

[Collin Salvo]

DC Comics would be awesome just because they would own both major comic companies in their parks. But as we know Six Flags has DC rights. But a dark Gotham City area would be awesome, mainly based off of Tim Burton's Gotham. There's a lot they could do with rides imo.

I think Pokemon is the 5th IP

That's one of those code phrases a spy uses for recognition.

Hmmm... 007 world??

 

[Cup_Of_Coffee]

Also, Fantastic Beasts has 3 more movies coming out until I believe the year that this park is rumored to open. So its still relevant at the very least.

 

[RFRees]

I think Pokemon is the 5th IP

I think this is very likely. The rumors were so strong for Pokemon going to KZ... if that's true, they have a lot of work already done, including the business negotiation and design. And if the KZ rumor is true, then it would have followed the same path as Nintendo: planned for KZ but moved to site B.

 

[Collin Salvo]

It would be pretty awesome if they open the park with New York and Paris. Then every year have a new area of the land built. Since these movies don't come out every year it would give them enough time to plan it and build it with the movie teams.

You're ruling out Pokemon

Yes.
