Personally, I think this bodes well for being Darkmoore (Or some form of it) coming out to Hollywood with this development.

I don't expect that Hollywood will ever get a Universal Monsters land, but I feel like a singular attraction could be in the cards.

Legoland CA or FL

There is also a Legoland in NY even though it’s often forgotten.

The Starway looming over the lower lot would break the illusion for a monsters land big time. When USH expands into the SS 16-24 cluster, I feel like its going to be a similar situation for when DCA expands into Simba: a land theme where the escalator doesn't interfere too much with the theme. Could be wrong though.

My top two things replacing the Simpsons land would be Monsters.....or just a Universal land and you can give us a monsters Tavern at least

I mean Monsters are literally the headliners for Fan Fest this year (with Scooby Doo) so they know people love the monsters. Not saying we will get a land but would not surprise me if we do get some sort of Monsters area and ride.

Also if we did get a Monsters land where Simpsons is...would be a pretty cool area for a scarezone every year

That didn’t stop them from building Nintendo World in the lower lot with the NBC building towering over the land. You can only do so much about sight lines when you have to work with what little space is given to you.

I actually hope the Springfield replacement is Monsters! That would be great! I feel like you could easily convert the restaurants to Darkmoore.

It fits very well with Potter Next door...and also the Tram in the way that that is where the movies that made this land possible comes from

I know the Epic ride can't fit there but.....if they could make a two story Dark ride and use similar tech from the ride at Epic that would help make it cost just a little less then a new ride from the ground up

Also maybe make it where the Q has spots for actors...and they can add some at HHN if they feel like that would be worth it

Also F&F can take the Duff Gardens...unless in some miracle. Universal wants to add a little show or flat ride there for Monsters

Having never been to Epic, how aesthetically similar is Dark Universe to Hogsmeade? In pictures they feel similar

I hate to pour cold water on this, but this doesn't really mean anything. Universal Television has been trying to do something, anything, with the Universal monsters for over half a decade. It's cool that Williamson is taking a crack at the material, but we're a long (long) way away from anything coming of it. There's no finished script, no pilot commitment, no series order.
