Just wondering what everyone’s dream for the expansion land would be

Gotham City

Termina Clock Town, with a big moon over everything and the Happy Mask Salesman stand.

The Shire

Far Far Away?

I hate the idea of Pokémon not going into USF and Zelda not going into IOA, so I hope no Nintendo.

I think at least a small Trolls area would be fun.

Another ride for Monsters (maybe another big coaster), would also be cool

Valley of Peace (Kung Fu Panda)

Christmas (Frosty, Rudolph, Santa)

Hanna-Barbara

In the parks at UOR now, and honestly I think Universal needs to step up their in park dining just a bit at EU. Its not bad now, and USF actually has quite a few options, but man, IOA for lunch/dinner is tough to find. Mythos was disappointing yesterday (doesn't always mean its bad, but I've also read on here it seems on the decline), and 3 Broomsticks are the only standouts. Is the Marvel cafe any good? Idk, I just feel Universal has really stepped up with dining at their new resorts and Citywalk, but could use it in their parks a bit more.

I know I'm late to this but it might be by design...to make you go and eat at the restaurants at Citywalk. Finnegan's is always good though.

Oh and again late but on the subject of Busch Gardens, I remember loving Zambia.

Not a land, but a Creature from the Black Lagoon dark/boat ride along the lines of "Jungle Cruise Goes to Hell" is something I desperately want to see in a future expansion.

For things that are out and proven IPs:
Nintendo Expansionokemon, Zelda, Kirby
Shonen Jump to compliment Nintendo: One Piece, Dragon Ball,
Universal Classic Monsters expanding to add new monsters from around the world to include Lovecraft, African, South American, and Asian monsters
Dreamworks: Trolls, She-Ra, Voltron, Shrek, Valley of Peace

For things upcoming and not proven by could work:
Wicked version of Oz
Dreamworks upcoming film The Bad Guys based attraction
School of Good and Evil based land

Original land would also be good.

I feel like Looney Tunes doesn't get much love on these forums. One of the few family-friendly IP's that genuinely challenges Mickey (others probably being Mario, Pokemon and Spongebob) in my opinion

That’s because Six Flags has the Looney Toons theme park rights.

Valley of Peace and Pokémon would be perfect. Whichever one isn’t in EU can take over kidzone

Yeah, but you still get semi-regular posts about DC Comics and Lotr. Which obviously have similar issues regarding rights. Just think it's interesting that Looney Tunes doesn't get much of a mention.

Tbf I don't necessarily think it would work as well as a hyper-immersive land. I think it would suit more a Toon-town style mix of cartoon ips

Speaking of Pokémon, which area from it do you expect the land to be if they end up doing it?

 

[Cup_Of_Coffee]

Speaking for most wanted expansion, from a business perspective, id put Valley of Peace in EU and Pokemon in USF. Pokemon would fit very well there and be a major draw besides the Wizarding World. USF needs something after Bourne desperately. I think as others have said, spreading out Nintendo means best chance to get as much $$ as possible. If you have SNW in EU, Pokemon in USF, and Zelda in IOA, you're going to get A LOT of people visiting all 3 parks. To me it just makes the most absolute sense. Plus, from what we know at least, doesn't seem like EU has many boat rides and I believe theres rumored to be on in USB, which is where the Valley of Peace will first open anyways.

Doesn’t uní Beijing have exclusive KFP rights for a few years?

 

[WaterToWade]

Also praying this is the Castle we receive

Yes, but there likely won't be an expansion here for awhile. Opens in 2021 in Beijing, probably not getting an EU expansion until 2025 at the very earliest.

Speaking of Pokémon, which area from it do you expect the land to be if they end up doing it?

Knowing the odds, I'd assume either a location from Kanto (like Cerulean City), or they go Batuu'ing Pokemon, with a new region created for the land; with those from The Pokemon Company closely working with Universal Creative and ensuring it connects to all other means of Pokemon content (along with new Pokemon created for the land).

Straight up, I'd say original land; but the idea of an entire Christmas land would be...quite something to see.

I still think that SNW should have gone to USF. They need a big draw badly. But Pokemon is the next best thing, so let's hope that's it.
