This likely won’t happen, but I can’t get this idea out of my head.

Taking over the TL theatre area, and the games, all before the TL signage is…

Animal Crossing!

It would be the most “tame” IP for a park with the word adventure in it’s title, but since the game is a bit of a choose your own adventure anyways, there could be some fun interactivity that creative can come up with. IOA needs help with the little ones and it would be a nice peaceful transition from MSHI.
Dude I would be all over this lol. An Animal Crossing dark ride is on my theme park wish list.

Small world boat ride, but it’s just the villagers singing in their nonsense language. A dream. :lol:

I like Animal Crossing but after playing splatoon 3, that is way more suited for a water ride/game than any other Nintendo IP. Overlay the barges and make it indoors with Splatoon 3 and have inklings shot you and you shot back using projection mapping.

Well if there’s a death knell for anything it’s the UOAP lounge moving here. They think it’s worth more as a UOAP benefit write off than as a retail location. Ouch.
Well, was Rocky and Bullwinkle merch really ever pushing the needle? :lol: If they really wanted to sell comic strip merch effectively, Garfield and Peanuts would be out there next to Popeye and Betty Boop. and yea, I understand licensing deals with other parks keeps that out of the question, thus, AP Lounge.

The Boop location is pretty small, and I haven't seen evidence yet of any significant improvements to the lounge other than some random imagery. I think it'll be another temp location until they can decide on an actual purpose-built location for it.
This answered my question even though I made a typo. Meant to type "bigger" lol
