Not necessarily. Universal Singapore is 40 acres. That park isn't full of simulators.
But Singapore is also not very large. Lots of vertical attractions.

45 acres only means...more simulators!

If this were to become a reality, I could see the park embrace the indoor aspect heavily. But I would also be interested to see if the Hollywood Sign Gondola would be included as an upcharge attraction within the theme park footprint. Tourist $$$$

Whoa! That entire park is only 40 acres? Really?

Yea and there understandably isn't much to do.Whoa! That entire park is only 40 acres? Really?

They have a 5 year plan or something?They're trying to improve what was there before, and though the past few years; it has become a much better park.

Since 2010, they've brought multiple attractions; including Transformers, an expanded Despicable Me attraction/play area based on the IP, Springfield getting a proper area, Supercharged on the Studio Tour, Potter, and a TWD-Based walkthrough attraction.
On the topic of USH, I've always been curious where they would build this park.
Land is far too expensive for them to buy up a theme park's worth of land. Unless there's some large chunk of relatively undeveloped land they could scoop up at once.
That would leave the backlot. Which is a ton of land they could develop on. But, it seems like Universal has been cutting into the backlot a lot to expand USH. That backlot makes Universal a lot of money and is important towards their movie / television business. They have to leave the majority of it as-is.
If you cannibalize part of your already small park to add a "second park" you better have a pretty good plan to justify that. Disneyland although small, has a lot of attractions while making a big expansion and still has more land to work with overall although they are close to maxing out. Universal has worse terrain, already relies majorly on parking garages with one park, and would absolutely handicap Both parks by cramming in a second one. You just can only maintain guest satisfaction and capacity with a limited space to a point.As it is said, if you take out Supercharged, move Falls Lake and the Psycho House, tear down the WoTW/Whoville/Lost World/ other sets; you could theoretically do a theme park on the east side of the property.

There is a limited amount of land in general. Even if you move around the back lot tour there becomes a point where you don't have enough land to move things and you Have to pick between park/backlot/soundstages. They are already cannibalizing soundstages for park expansion. Maybe additions mean you are forced to get rid of the tram tour even after the recent additions, but that would seem silly given the investment.The backlot, in a sense; isn't fully apart of the main theme park.
Yes, it is through the Studio Tour, but most of the stuff can be moved. Psycho House/Bates was moved.

Disneyland is not small, it's just got a lot of stuff packed in tight and has smaller scaled buildings, so people automatically think its small when they see pictures. The reality is when Star Wars Land opens Disneyland will surpass Magic Kingdom in size by 3 acres...
