The Future of Lost Continent (Poseidon Fury closing May 9)

[Jushin Thunder Liger]

It is. He's in the theater as it's part of the Hagrid super extended queue. Just showing that nothing has been done

Ohhhh! I see. In other words, another day in the Universal offices.

Thank you, @Scott W. and @soilsigh . Something is up. I just don't know what. Yet.

She-Ra would certainly be an...interesting choice. Don't think it's a bad one, and it certainly seems popular. But I would totally be bummed if Zelda never happens

 

[AlexanderMBush]

She-Ra screams to me for a strange reason, a short-term replacement for the Sinbad stunt show. I somehow don't see it being anything bigger than that.

General rule of thumb. If someone has to ask what an IP is and is it popular, it's most likely not worthy of a Uni/Dis theme park land.

Please keep in mind that at my age, I'm a bit out of the loop when it comes to pop culture and properties that are up and coming.

By no means am I suggesting this would take over a section of LC. It could be simply IP representation within the island. A meet & greet, perhaps? I was just looking for feedback to help me put some puzzle pieces together.

Personally, Id love for that arena show of How To Train Your Dragon to make it there. Could theme the area around it to fit HTTYD franchise (forgot the location name in the films). I think it'd be smart of Universal to introduce at least 1 thing Dreamworks and 1 thing Nintendo prior to opening their new park, so they can build hype with what they are willing to do with these IPs. It'd fit well too in my opinion. IOA could use another strong show too.

HTTYD is already pretty much guaranteed for Park 3

My post, while a part of your line of questioning, wasn't specifically answering you. It was more of a blanket statement for any time anyone says their pet IP would make a great theme park land. I figured you were just trying to get info. I'd say a She-Ra Meet and Greet would be about the max for that IP.

 

[Imperius]

A She-ra meet and greet would be great IMO. I don’t watch it but would do wonders for the young girls who visit.

Right, but what Im saying is provide the show in IOA. Show people what can be done with the Dreamworks property, and get that on their radar. Im sure more families would be impressed to hear more Dreamworks attractions are coming. Then, in park 3 add a ride based around it. Introducing people to the IPs before the new park may help for an increased opening. Just a thought.

I think it could work as a quick plug in for a new show in Sindbad. Would probably require minimal retheming of the theater, and could be a stop gap until the overall Lost Continent plans are good to go

Yes, and remember much of the infrastructure of that stage was refurbed just a short three years ago. Most of that stage and set fits well for a fantasy show, with some minor theme alterations. And, as Jungle Skip said, Dragon's is planned for the new park, in all probability, so we won't see it at IOA in any form.

 

[jseal777]

Zelda showwwwwwwwww

 

[Mike S]

Zelda showwwwwwwwww

Zelda rideeeeeeeeeeee

 

[Cup_Of_Coffee]

Okay yes for Zelda pls. I hope those rumors are true still, even though it wouldn't be for like 5-6 years probably. So worth the wait for Zelda

 

[fryoj]

Full scale Potter show.

 

[Mad Dog]

Perhaps they're considering re-opening it, with whatever IP, to absorb some of the IOA park crowd increase from Hagrid.

If it is She-ra, I’m guessing it’s because it’s one of the female based action IPs Universal currently has in its arsenal and the fact it’s been around since the 80s.

But I think Universal May have bigger plans for Zelda and that tiny plot won’t do anymore

Well, it's rumored that they are working expansion pads into FW so maybe there

tbh, I think they may wait until something is rolled out from Illumination

Or perhaps, just leave it alone
