Walkthrough sounds like a post-show for an ACTUAL ride.
I don’t disagree, also the idea works well with the Minions.Unless said walkthrough is celebrating the work of Alfred Hitchcock
But actually, as much as I hate TSMM, I feel Universal could actually plus the concept
Hell, the showbuilding for TSMM is super tiny compared to others around Orlando
A walkthrough would be a huge bummeroof, walk-through, I would hope it would be the ride option...but that really sounds like web slingers. IMO Uni should be running away from that type of ride/experience, not embracing it. I know everything can't be an E ticket, nor should it, but these ideas just seem so, blah.
Hopefully this is another Waterworld situation then, where the quality of the attraction is more important than the box office ratings.As much as I'm excited to try Pets in Hollywood (and as much as it appears to be an excellent and sorely-needed addition), the reality is that Pets is seen as a failed/dormant franchise in the eyes of Universal and Illumination. Pets 2 was a major financial disappointment even though it most likely turned a healthy profit: Illumination & Uni expected it to become another Minions-level multi-billion dollar franchise.
Pets in Hollywood only really happened because it was too late to stop once the box office returns came in. That isn't to say it couldn't still happen in Orlando... but I imagine there's less excitement about the prospect.

You kidding? Business politics means that’s the best reason to not build it.I don't think it should hurt UO Creative's pride that the West team just happened to have designed an attraction that USF desperately could use.
But even if it somehow did, that's not a good reason to not build SLOP in Orlando.

I think we want to see Shrek out of the park because of its current incarnation as a subpar 4D theaterShrek has life. If they don’t wanna bring SLoP over, a similar dark ride feat Shrek would be just fine IMO.

Not even just a mini-land; the Shrek franchise is, in my opinion, the only one under DWA with the longevity, characters, and settings necessary to warrant a single-IP land. It deserves way better than a terrible simulator.Shrek has so many opportunities for a mini land. Iconic locations, characters, puns, gags, music, food opportunities.
