I think King's Row is definitely the cheap part of the land. Sweethaven and the Yukon are both very well executed, colorful, and really great. If King's Row could match those areas, I think it would be regarded much better. It's just one stretch of the land, and imo, we let it cause too many generalizations about the land as a whole.

With everybody hating on the changes to Kong over the years (I know some people did not like KONG even when it first opened but we don't have to entertain those people) what are everybody's thoughts on leveling everything from the edge of Marvel to the edge of JP for a megaland?

Idk the IP would be outside of the Hobbit (assuming LOTR goes to EU), but id absolutely love this post Zelda.

I love the Kong ride, but not doing the outside portion and now getting rid of 3-D has killed it I think. Like doing minion blast without the blasters.
Would hate to see it go,
Logisticaly that would be a huge part of IOA being behind contruction walls. That is something no one would like to see. I'd even split toon lagoon and the empty theater up in 2 lands, one reusing the water rides and the rest new stuff.
Are we really still expected to get a Hobbit land? It's been a decade since the final film came out, and I feel like it can hardly be said it has kept the appeal and icon status that the LOTR trilogy has two decades later.

Lately, it feels the rumor is that LOTR is more likely to go to GB than EU. But even that is early days.
They have bigger fish to fry? I mean it has decent rides, an OK theme, and so why change it right now? They need to tackle the aging ride systems and LC being completely shut down right now. And it has always been that way, bigger fish to fry.
Dudley always has been and always will be my favorite log flume. It’s a blast!

Toon Lagoon is officially the Kidzone of IOA. It will never leave and will always remain haha

I agree with everybody else saying this area is certainly not a priority anytime soon.
A land revamp/refresh in the future is plausible though.

A couple of questions for everyone:
Is it true that Universal owns the rights to Dudley?
Also, do they own the rights for any other characters represented in Toon Lagoon?
I know they definitely don’t own POPEYE.

Falls in the same category as Echo Lake at DHS for me... mostly a "walk-through" land with decently popular attractions that should be updated/refreshed at some point... but there's a higher priority elsewhere in the park (animation courtyard).
