Future of Shrek 4-D Orlando

How does that equal to the future of Shrek 4-D, an attraction based off an IP that has no connection to Nintendo? O:

To say this, I imagine they are looking to Shrek 4-D as a have-to for now. And that, it'll eventually go; but they are more prioritized at UOSouth and the final few projects for the immediate on Northern property (Finish Adventura/Dock/Surf, the Jurassic project, Bourne, and whatever else is requiring the new set's of chillers next to the new Parade Building).

At-least...that's how I'm seeing this.

Was this meant for a different thread? What does this have to do with Shrek or USF remaining stale? The goal shouldn't be to just divert all attendance from one park to another park.

Plans (whatever they are currently) have not been abandoned, just perpetually put on hold, year after year.

Since they added that 10th house for HHN so late this year, I wonder if there was even plans to close it this fall. Not now though. Shrek 4D will outlive us all.

I like HHN and all, but if it keeps delaying the closing of Shrek, I may be forced to buy one less mug this year

This statement saddens me. I know everyone is excited about the new park but the supposedly accelerated schedule for the Lockheed land has really done a number on the short term future of the existing parks. I really hope Universal doesn't pull a Disney circa early 2000s and let their older parks stagnate. I'd actually rather have 2 parks with frequent additions like we've had than a mega resort with sporadic additions that are spread too thin across 3 parks and 2 water parks. If attraction spending remains the same but they just spread it out over a larger collection of gates that will be disappointing.

Well, Universal doesn't have to worry about some overseas blunder draining them financially...Also, Michael Eisner is not in charge

I'd be surprised if they don't move the new Dreamworks theater idea over.

I think they understand studios has a problem with 4-D movies and simulators

And they might want to save Po’s first Orlando attraction for another park/location.

Toon Lagoon please
Berk for LC

IOA is perfect

Shrek can be SLoP...rename Production Central to Illumination Avenue

There’s no way Universal would put another screen-heavy attraction in USF anytime soon.

I’ll guarantee that Dreamworks Theater comes to Park 3. It’s a great filler attraction and it’ll be dirt cheap to build.

Every new park needs solid B and C tickets.

I still like the villiancon rumor and it keeps the Hollywood and Orlando Parks with different draws. Would like a SLOP attraction coming but maybe make it a different experience and place it in a different park as keep the original “Studios” Parks changing to have their own identities.

Hi everyone I’m new here. I really like the idea of Shrek being replaced by the pets dark ride.

Welcome to the IU forums! :toast:

And I like the idea too. Wonder how many more decades we must suffer through Shrek 4D first though.

And don’t forget to retheme HRRR to “Mr. Moon’s Incredicoaster”


Had Uni known that Nintendo to Kidzone was going to be cut, I believe they would have had SLoP fasttracked and started construction in 2016 for 2018 opening. And we may have even gotten F&F in the projected late 2017 original timeframe.

Now they’re hamstrung. They can’t close Kidzone and Shrek without removing every kid attraction they have outside of DM. They need to pick one and get a move on it.

MoM, KZ or Shrek. Let’s pick one and start it already. We’re a year overdue now.

 

[Disneyhead]

Shrek will be with us until the new park opens.

KidZone not so much.

Is the Pets good enough to have it's own ride??? I think the parade float is all it should stay with.

The movie's quality is irrelevant. The Pets ride is going to be really good and we should absolutely hope it shows up in Orlando some day.

Pika Pika!

No. And Hopefully it doesn't have it's own ride.

 

[Magic-Man]

No. And Hopefully it doesn't have it's own ride.

Let’s agree to disagree. I liked the movie, and the new ride sounds awesome from what’s been rumored on here.
