Oh, and not only creativity, but cuts down the diversity by A LOT!
REALLY disappointing and frustrating...

So Ricky Brigante says there will be other streets. WD will be the main ones however.
I wish... But press release specifically says Universal Orlando is also dedicating its entire “Halloween Horror Nights” street experience to “The Walking Dead”
Wait... now I haven't heard much on the inside for Streets but we were talking about rumors of getting both Street Experiences and Scarezones. Universal is dedicating the entire "Street Experience" to TWD, but may have other scarezones dedicated to other stuff.

While this would be MUCH more palatable, if WD is a "Street Experience" and not a SZ... then how are we going to get Hershel's barn, ATL, the tank, etc.? Those sound like SZ's to me.

This reeks of marketing. I tried to be optimistic for a while. I'm getting to be kind of over it. A&D do a lot of good work and none of it is able to really shine under these circumstances. It's evidenced in how awesome the floats were in the Mardi Gras parade last year. I love Universal, and I love what they do with attractions and I'm sure I'll still go 10 times but it's getting old. These fan groups are supposed to really help give feedback. I don't expect for us to dictate the event, but for our opinions to be disregarded by Marketing is something as well.
Just wanted to quote this for truth - you've stayed a bit more optimistic than I have, but in all honesty I do want to like the event and see it be great so I can justify the large amount of $$ it now costs me to get down there. I don't think I can justify it this year.
The fan base's whole "defending the event because you don't want to offend A&D" schtick needs to stop.
Can I just point out, as a side note, that this is painfully lazy/backwards marketing? What an interesting setup HHN seems to have. Generally the creative people... you know, "create" a product, and it's the marketing guys' jobs to sell it. Not the other way around... These marketing guys must not be very good if they have to rely on Walking Dead to sell tickets.
So I have read past posts that everyone wants a theme and an icon for HHN. So they give us that and we are upset about it?
I wouldn't call marketing for a TV show a theme or an icon.
