(Rumor) New Potter Attraction to Replace Fear Factor Live?

[belloq87]

I have no info, but I wouldn't be surprised if Pets gets moved here or another project is dusted off and put here.

"Pets Corner" sounds like a good idea for that back area.

If KidZone curse is finally defeated, it would allow them to close it for a large project post-EU without sacrificing capacity/attractions for children. FFL has enough space for the ride itself, queue, even a flat ride for a very small miniland.

I like the sound of this.

They could make it a mini land so we wouldn’t see the show building, have the puppet, while being slightly immersed. Plus it’s fake NY so can be more centered around the Pets.

Also, remember, Universal could do a parade/nighttime show refresh for 2024 and that be the major addition.

I agree. I said the same a few months ago when the Universal management move was made.

Which projects could be dusted off I wonder

Also it would be hillariously ironic if SLoP ended up coming to this plot of land

I wouldn't even draw attention to the NYC connection (in terms of the exterior), given that there's already a New York land in the park. Bring over the facade from Hollywood (tweaked as needed), implement some nice landscaping (i.e. trees) around it to make it inviting, and if there's room for some sort of food stand or flat ride, all the better.

Obviously, the most ideal spots for SLOP are either taken already (Shrek) or not easily accessible (backstage in New York somewhere), but I think it could be a very nice little area on the Fear Factor plot if Universal decided to go that way.

So the possible scenarios:

• Theater stays empty (besides HHN), now we have three empty theaters across both parks.
  
  
• New show comes in, or perhaps the return of an old show? I think a return of Wild, Wild, Wild West would be very welcomed.
  
  
• Theater demo'd, Secret Life of Pets or something else entirely?

I mean, next door is LITERALLY the 1964 Worlds Fair inspired. So the generic "Worlds Expo" could fit if they made the attraction in Queens.

Yeah, MiB facade is New York-themed already so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch.

I always found it funny that New York City takes up like half of Studios between New York, Central Park, Today Show Cafe, and the MiB facade. This would just exemplify that lol.

Guys, the ‘Universe and You’ exhibit was moved here from the 1964 World Expo! It’s no longer in New York!

Actually, Waterworld WILL fit. You just have to turn it 90-degrees from how you would expect.

The Future of Lost Continent (Poseidon Fury closing May 9)

:deadhorse: You'll get no love for that here. As good an idea as it is.

Honestly, the operational challenge of two “large cast” stunt shows is probably the bigger issue.

And you can still have a show there for HHN with Slaughterworld.

Plenty of room for a roller coaster.

Dubai Hills Mall will be home to an indoor coaster and adventure park

Dubai Hills Mall has now opened and in addition to shopping and dining spots, two entertainment attractions have just been revealed...

THE POLERCOASTER LIVES

I don't see why Pets would go to FFL when it was rejected for the location that made the most sense. I also can't imagine that Universal would want to lock Diagon Alley into only having one major attraction for decades to come by removing the only expansion option.

Would guess F&F is still an expansion option.

It wasn't rejected for Minions, it was never planned for there.

Good point. I'd hate to see San Francisco depart as a themed land though.

 

[shiekra38]

Yeah this thing is pretty locked down in between MIB and Gringotts

I bet it stays Sindbaded for a bit

Does it need another attraction/expansion? Hogwarts in IOA, Diagon here, whatever is going into Epic...feels like there's enough HP to go around if they want to put something else here.
