Do you think that would be a rebranding of the Woody Woodpecker coaster?

Woody would be demolished. Donkey Kong (the red) would be a new coaster if my hopes can be.

I think that would be a great idea for a coaster but I don't know if it would be too similar to the Hulk.

I've just realised that it might be a bit strange having Nintendo in Universal Studios because it's a videogame IP going into a park that's based on movies and tv shows. I feel it should be going to Islands because of that but logistically, Studios is the smart choice.

Yes, they will be rebranding it as Scrap Metal. :)

But do not feel sadness young Frodo, for I believe there will be another born that will far surpass your imagination... ;)

I'll be honest, Ive never played Kong. That looks awesome.

I've got an image of a big mean monkey, kind of reminds me of the Hulk. And now Kong that I've said that.

Is there a possibility that they will make a second entrance to this area to help with guest flow? I can see a second entrance/exit being where the Simpsons backstage gate is or just North of the Simpsons Ride.

Big monkeys are Universal.

Donkey Kong started off as an antagonist, but he quickly became a good guy. A signature thing in the Donkey Kong Country games are mine cart rides. It's a no-brainer for the land

I doubt it. I expect it to be very similar to Diagon crowd flow wise

Ok, change of subject... something I can tell you without revealing the cool cool cool. Whatever is built, it's going to be tall, much like Indiana Jones and Dinosaur. I will let others here tell you what that means. :)

Two-story show building? I'm guessing no elevator or you would have mentioned Transformers.

However... the building will remain very tall for yet another attraction... UC is going all out on this.

Random speculation time: Peach's Castle is gonna be large, both to block a potential tall show building and to be awesome.

Nintendo might be the best themed land in the world. This is what Disney has to aim for with Star Wars.

The funny thing is that I've been expecting Diagon Alley level theming..but if it even goes that far beyond what Diagon Alley accomplished. I don't know how i'd even react.

I have no doubt Universal will do a great job with this land, but I'm just wondering what will be the common "look" to tie Mario, DK, Zelda, etc all together. Mushroom Kingdom, Donkey Kong Island, and Hyrule all look very different from each other.
