VB's working name was Wonder Sea. No fan of that name, I'm glad they changed that. I like all of these concepts the posters have been posting. Just not keen to any of the park names.
To play devil's advocate, we have had Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin at Magic Kingdom, then Midway Mania at DHS, and now they're still adding more Toy Story rides. The fact that they're in multiple parks at same resort is weird to me too, but I guess it's not unprecedented for the industry.I still think there's 0 chance Jurassic World is a land in the new park. It makes 0 logistical sense. This isn't a Kong situation where after a decade and 1/2 they decide to bring back a property. JP is already alive and well in IoA.

At least JW is kind of a new trilogy of films. Definitely has a different style to it than the original.
I still think they can work a gyrosphere ride into IOA personally instead, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it in a new park to help drive new visitors there.

If you'd have said, theres 0 chance that JW goes to the new park without them closing JP at IOA, I'd say you'd have a little more ground to stand on.
There isn't any space left for it in IOA, at least not without removing either jpra or Camp Jurassic. I agree though, it probably would have made more sense for a single "Jurassic" land. But it seemed like Universal didn't expect Jurassic World to do well. I feel like if Universal realized just how well Jurassic World would do in theaters we wouldn't have seen Kong in IOA but a gyrosphere attraction in that space instead. In hindsight, a seperate World and Park is probably the next best solution.That to me is even more of a baffling idea.
"Hey let's demolish one of our lands that is perfectly good and popular."
"Why?"
"To build another one!"
I dunno. It just seems like bad business to me when you can build the Gyrosphere at IOA

As much as a fanboy pipe dream LoTR is- I see JW as being even further far fetched. I’d anticipate JP getting a reskin before that happens. And truthfully, the return on investment simply isn’t there. They have an entire themed land where they can sell JW merch and food already sitting there built.

Be careful saying that. Rumor has it that if you call an attraction a "classic" three times in front of a mirror, UC already green-lights its replacement. :look:I also don't see the benefit in tearing down JPRA. It's a legit classic.
The Eighth Voyage of Sindbad is a classic attraction.Be careful saying that. Rumor has it that if you call an attraction a "classic" three times in front of a mirror, UC already green-lights its replacement. :look:

Just as an example...there's a lot of room here for a ride.
