Does anyone know a good hairdresser for men around the Universal hotel area? I tend to go for a skin fade which not all hairdressers do. And I want somewhere a bit better than a supercuts lol
Is the Brightline line confirmed to not be building a station on the convention centre?
I remember there was talk about it back before covid but not sure where that went.
Totally agree. If they could a pay option to Disney+ allowing us to pay $5/10 for a new film (Mulan/Widow) then surely they'd still make a lot of money?
A C/D ticket ride with Kirby would be cool. Kirby is as relevant (probably more) to kids now as Toon Lagoon. If they do a SNW expansion that's more Mushroom Kingdom then maybe we could see things like Luigi's Mansion, Kirby, Paper Mario, Smash Bros (which may be in the original plans??), Wario...
I know it's just a rumour but changing Supercharged to Knight Bus would surely need more than just a re-theme. Honestly I don't see a way that Supercharged is changed without gutting what's already there.
Would it be possible for Uni to just buy the Seaworld park? Not Discovery Cove and Aquatica or anything Busch Gardens related?
Also feel they would get hugely positive press if they bought and released some of the animals (orcas and the like - still keeping those you'd likely find in an...
Honestly I'd rather Spongebob as a Toon Lagoon replacement than LOTR. Kinda what you were saying in that the balance of the parks changes so much dropping a whimsical kid-friendly area for a much darker LOTR. Not that families and stuff won't be interested in Middle Earth but it's a very...
Anyone else surprised there's nothing Fast and Furious? Ditching Supercharged is one thing but to ditch the whole franchise seems odd.
Like surely executives don't think that Supercharged being poorly received was down to the strength of the IP?
These two signs for the Skyliner seem to have completely different art styles. I'm getting a futuristic vibe from the first and then a more classic, european-style vibe from the second
Yeah, but you still get semi-regular posts about DC Comics and Lotr. Which obviously have similar issues regarding rights. Just think it's interesting that Looney Tunes doesn't get much of a mention.
Tbf I don't necessarily think it would work as well as a hyper-immersive land. I think it would...
I feel like Looney Tunes doesn't get much love on these forums. One of the few family-friendly IP's that genuinely challenges Mickey (others probably being Mario, Pokemon and Spongebob) in my opinion
I guess if it doesn't make money then they'll scale back the immersion and personalised experiences, and just make into a generic Star Wars hotel with low occupancy. They'll have to reduce the prices to around a moderate but there's always going to be a market for a Star Wars hotel.
Wasn't there talk on this thread about Scooby Doo potentially appearing in the land? Was that just fan speculation or was it actually considered?
I'm assuming probably not as it's mentioned above that Creative want to keep each land to 1 IP
Keep hearing reports on interactivity in SNW (how the land is designed to be one big game or something like that) - is there any likelihood this type of tech is incorporated into the other lands?
Wasn't there a rumour a few years back (around the time Blackfish was really gaining traction) that Uni might be looking at buying Seaworld? If the above is true and the company is being prepped for a sale then could we see Universal purchasing it?
I mean almost certainly not due to Epic...
