If they were already had “Sweet Revenge” as a concept to do in the next 5-10 years as a full house, this would honestly be a great time to do it what with Wonka and the Glasgow Event occurring. And it would have precedent. The ending of the Boris story in the Tribute Store last year would...

I wonder what the back/front row queue will look like.

Yeah, and I’ve thought of that for sure. I just have a lot of trust issues when it comes to “Phase 2” plans in general.

I don’t myself, but I’ve taken many preschool-aged children on Disney trips and understand the very real need for rest and steam-release that a long, once-in-a-lifetime, expensive day in a theme park can bring. I imagine you do, and are going to be really happy when this land opens and your...

So, I think two things can be true. This land is eons better than Kidzone. And as a kid that spent most of their time in Kidzone due to deep-seated fear of the adult positioning and “edgy” marketing of Universal Studios, Kidzone was what made a full day for me at the parks. I wasn’t tall enough...

With "A Quiet Place" being a generally bad idea when it comes to executing the story and scare tactics in a conga line-style house, it would be easy enough to pull the Joels used last year for John Krasinski and some of the local princess face character performers for Emily Blunt's character...

Sorry to post so soon again, but does anyone know if the giant fountain in the middle is at least going to have some sort of show even if it is without fireworks? And, crucially, will it be “atmosphere” like the Fountain of Nations or scheduled (Dining Package-worthy) like “World of Color”? I...

I know much has been said about the Mar. 10 of it all, but honestly, if the reveals are Ticket Sales Go Up November... that's a really stacked schedule. And there may be additional breaks seeded for updates on Fast & Furious in Cali, the Frisco park, and Area 51 HHN... so this is my prediction...

Well. It's turning 15 and getting a 3D theatrical re-release. The problem would be that many of the big finale monsters would require puppeteers. But it's no less scary that Beetlejuice or Ghostbusters...

For me, it's the "rule of cool". Part of what makes these lands so believable is the total immersion, but if the break in immersion is for something very cool (the "frozen" Diagon dragon) then I think it usually gets forgiven. Ugly hotels and business buildings are more difficult to forgive than...

I imagine it's the costumes. While I haven't seen the film, I imagine that a great way to lower costs for the house would be to license the Blumhouse film due to the ability to use bloodied human lookalikes to pad out the runtime (like Chucky). Licensing the game wouldn't afford the same...

I've gotta say... I remember walking through CityWalk and seeing dedicated booths to FnaF merch. I think you'd be creating an unfortunate queue situation by lumping M3GAN and FnaF together, it'd be leaving money on the table. The only reason I can fathom a compilation house would be some...

Unfortunately, I think Splash Battle attractions are cursed. My local water park closed a relatively new version of the attraction with… fine… theming (for a regional park), and it’s something that I’ve seen in a few other parks, too. I think it’s just the combination of the very slow boats and...

Gotta say, it’s sorta funny to think that no matter what sort of Universal Monsters house they do, it would be easy to cleanly create a through-line to Epic even if the designs and storylines are COMPLETELY different.

Ten units is a lot. As speculated earlier, it would be fun to have floats like “Horror” and “Sci-Fi” and “Adventure” with long floats that juggle two or three IPs like the long finale float of Festival of Fantasy. Or course, if the streets can handle that sort of float length.

I think it’s interesting that so many of the existing themed hotels that are successfully integrated in-park are themed to residence buildings in a big city. Otherwise, they create a berm that separates the real world from the fantasy world in a way that makes the hotel a curtain rather than a...

You’re totally right with the corporate buyouts. I sincerely hope you are right that my fears are unfounded. As I explained, I personally hope to visit this park in its first year (nothing broken yet, food items not yet homogenized) and I’m eager to see how projected crowds levels are managed...

Well, yes, as the park hasn't opened yet these I'm operating on hypotheticals and assumptions in order to entertain the discussion. I'm exceedingly hopeful that my assumptions are wrong and that the entire park will be accessible for every ticketholder during operating hours, but post-covid...

I'm not sure how accurate this is. Yes, you will get soaked no matter what, but people that have paid *that much money* for a *once in a lifetime experience* would ride rollercoasters in the rain if they had the chance. The thing about Kauai is that you can't ask a beach for a refund, making the...

Two things: People are going to be desperate to go into the "giant castle" at the end of the street. I wonder if there will be any exploration near the hotel to satiate people who don't have access. I also wonder if there will be any sort of in-Celestial-Park explanation of the building. I...
