I've seen Sophie's Moist and needed Kleenex too.
But on topic, I really, really would like to see a full blown Kung Fu Panda mini land so I hope this news is not true. It's disappointing when great ip's (like Minions) get under used.

In my opiniom I don’t think we’re going to see any Dreamworks properties added to the old parks until the new one is done. Maybe turn the building into a new flex theater like in Japan or Hollywood.

The screen police would arrest Creative
Probably.
I’m not really a proponent of screen-based rides, but, given the limited amount of space available in this particular show building, I think it would make sense.
Considering how close it is to Fallon, and the limited space of the building; I would think they'd rather want to go with an option that can maximize capacity in any given way.
Also, there's a lot more they can do with Dragons than just a simple simulator.
If they wouldn't replace Shrek with a non-screens ride (which is obviously what I'd like them to do), I'd rather they just demo the building and use that space to rework the entrance plaza than put another simulator in there. The park has reached its saturation point with them by this point.
At the very least some full facades and Minion plaza would be nice
Basically my order of preference would be this:
1. Dark ride.
2. New entry plaza.
3. Literally anything else.
------GIGANTIC CHASM
4. Screens-related something or other.
It can't be that hard to put a non-screen based attraction in there.
We had an very good non-screen attraction in there from 1990-2002.
We have this mentality on here wit buildings like Fallon and Shrek "oh screw it the building is too small for anything except a simulator".. but look at Ghost Busters and Twister.
Japan also has a non-screen based attraction in the same building but in Osaka.

They were planning on putting SLoP in there. So... Yeah. Relax.
The first half of Hitchcock was a screen show. Sure, the second part was with live actors, but the part most people were there to see, with the birds attacking you, was a screen theater.
Shrek 4-D was a cheap addition from the beginning
The building isn't as small as people think

Yes!
I’d take a flippin Kyle (dog from despicable me) spinner over any screen based attraction. That’s how much I don’t want a screen based attraction in that area.
