Realistically - I don't think you're ever going to get a D/E-ticket ride back here - but I think there's enough space for either a few flat rides, or a small decent dark ride if they do expand.

Seuss Lagoon is littered with flat signs as well as their marquee attraction. It's just what kids like. If I know I will get the same reaction out of a kid with a flat version of a character as I would with a high tech robotic 10000 then I am going with the cut out. This land is not going to sell tickets, it's (to me) an added value. I am shocked they are even doing this much to be honest. I personally feel this land will be a hit with kids because it hits all things kids like, play structures, water and dance parties. What kid is going to look at Shrek's house and think that the foliage is gonna blow away in a fla storm and be shrewd upon I-4 lol (sorry Jim lol lol).
Huh what? Kids like flat signs? Is there a study somewhere I missed??
Seuss Landing having flat art is in theme with the art direction of Seuss. DreamWorks creates 3D styled animation.
Why are we making excuses for Universal for clear cost cuts?
This. I get some lands are meant to entertain kids and not to be super immersive areas like other lands, but I don't think that means we should expect and/or excuse a world class destination to put Six Flags level effort and budget into it. That said, I think we do have to applaud the design team for doing the most with what they were given. There is an impressive amount of interactivity packed into here and it's not their fault they weren't given much to work with. The bean counters are to blame for that.Why are we making excuses for Universal for clear cost cuts?
You know everything is examined with a microscope on this board. So anything Universal does will be heavily scrutinized warranted or not.Seuss Lagoon is littered with flat signs as well as their marquee attraction. It's just what kids like.

Without getting into what I think about the land again, I do quite forcefully push back on the argument that because something is "for" kids, it only has to be at a certain level of quality because they won't know any better.
I'm not saying the land is or isn't at a satisfactory level of quality, I'm just talking in a general, philosophical sense.
I think it's worth pointing out that there are a total of 2 flat signs that we've seen - the entrance sign, with @Alicia reporting it may be updated, and an unfinished entry arch. We've seen a lot more 3D figurines in the land, especially in recent days.
I think for what it is its great but many people on here are theme park fans
When you see Fantasy Springs in Tokyo which aimed at kids/families and see the details. I'm not even talking about the rides but just the details they have happening compared to this it looks cheap
I'm not saying it is, but I understand its not for everyone.
I think it sounds like a cute land and I won't hate on it for it but....I also understand other's wanting more
I think I understand what you're getting at, but at the same time, I'm pretty confident kids are going to love Fantasy Springs.We cannot compare it to Fantasy Springs because they are targeting different demos.
But I do want to see USF get a Fantasy Springs-style land expansion (read: net the park a few new significant attractions), and this could have been a place for it.

Perhaps... but USF needs the help!But depending on your definition - I don't know if USF will ever get a Spring-style land. That's what IOA and Epic are for.
