T2:3D - Battle Across Time Memorial Thread

I wish they would just use an original IP created specifically for this show?

A Bond-esque comedy/spy stunt show.

It would probably sell more merch than Bourne.

I completely agree. An original IP could create its own unique niche and be much more timeless. Shoehorning in Bourne would date the attraction upon opening. It'd be like Disney opening a new show based off Meet the Robinsons in 2019.

I would much rather have them just replace it with something Dreamworks-esque and turn it into a ride of some kind

Umm... Disney is opening up a Tron attraction. What's your point? Also when did The Little Mermaid come out in theaters again? Or Snow white? Opening attractions based on old successful IP's is what theme parks do. It's the entire business.

Didn’t we already go through with this discussion a few pages ago? There are plenty of attractions in the parks based on properties that don’t sell merchandise compared to others.

I know, but how is Bourne timeless compare to Terminator? They should’ve kept Terminator, I’m sorry

Little Mermaid, Snow White, and even arguably Tron have more cultural impact than Bourne. Bourne is a complete nothing of an IP. No memorable characters, no iconic set-pieces, and no fanbase of any kind. It'd be the most absolute boring choice of an IP integration possible.

Why not, if it turns out to be a big success they could create a film around the IP after like Pirates of the Caribbean.

something like Austin Powers?

How about The Man from U.N.C.L.E.?

The same can be said of Waterworld, regardless of it's original attraction being made to promote the film.

Since then, Waterworld received high critical acclaim and has seemed to of been ported to three (including Beijing if the leaks resonate true) of the international Universal Park's, Osaka, Singapore, and Beijing; outlasting the legacy of the original film it was based off of.

I don't think we should rule out Bourne because it's an IP that has fallen down since it's debut trilogy.

Is their really a reason we can't have this on a grander scale?

They could up the game and go from knives to guns and show how they shoot people. Would be an excuse for the increased storage but I am not saying it will happen.
Probably Bourne.........sigh

I say they partner up with their pals at Warner Bros. again and produce an Ocean's Eleven/Eight show.

 

[redy2468]

If it were to be any spy property I would LOVE it to be Kingsman show. Alas not owned by Universal and way too violent.

Why the long timescale if it’s a simple show swap over and a light retheme?

There’s some renovations happening, and new effects would need to be installed.

Isn’t this a 2019 project though? Still seems excessive.

You have the make-up show. That’s more than enough. Heck, it’s better than the special effect show.

I mean, there is this too

That reminds me of "Twister" on water.

I agree, and it’s a very funny show
