I like to think that most properties that are coming are A. Highly popular and requested. Or B. Very well liked by People.
I could maybe think that Pink Floyd's the Wall is a little unknown.
But the fact he says some implies more than 1. The Thing is not unknown but it would be unexpected. Klowns is kinda lesser known compared to other properties but most people are expecting it. Possibly Pink Floyd's the Wall as it is lesser known and a favorite and it would be unexpected.
Dang, The Wall would be INTENSE.
EDIT: What about a Smiths/Morrissey maze while we're at it? Or a Rob Zombie or Marilyn Manson music maze. Nine inch Nails maze, featuring Downward Spiral and Year Zero to help fill the political void left by the Purge. The possibilities are endless!
this question reminded me when during scarela 2016, a fan asked what dream property they wanted to do after the exorcist. Chris said either "evil dead 2" (which john also wanted to do) or "the original thing", john also said classic monsters. we already got classic monsters, and we sorta ish got evil dead 2 with ash vs evil dead (which was supposed to be evil dead 1 and 2 with ash vs evil dead being in name only, but that got scrapped), so the thing might happen sooner then we think.
It's amazing to see The Thing jump into the speculated lineup so quickly. I kinda like that there hasn't been a leaked list yet this year.
I'll restate what I said last time: The Thing is great for a maze because of how few "showstopper" sequences there are. There really is only the Dog Thing, the Norris thing, and the Blair thing at the end. They can reuse props from the old maze, like the ice block and the split-face thing for the Norwegian base. Bennings being assimilated can be a simple mannequin/animatronic, while the Bennings Thing could be an actor. Meanwhile, Palmer Thing could be an actor, and that weird Ash vs. Evil Dead scene where Ash's sister is latched onto Ash could be used for the scene where Palmer Thing is eating Windows's face.
Compared to something like Hill House or Alien, there's no need for expensive sets or even really elaborate costumes outside of the Things. They could fill out the maze with 60% look-alikes and no one would complain. Everyone would just remember the really cool monsters, kinda like the original movie actually.
It could fill out the Mummy queue or the Metro Sets easily, with a few massive set-pieces like the Dog Kennel, a short stint through the Norwegian Base, a couple of scenes with Bennings, crazy Blair and paranoid researchers, then another set-piece with Norris thing, then Palmer thing, then Blair's crazy room with the noose, the spaceship, then end with the tunnels with Blair thing. Bam.
