Just because a property makes money in it's original field (eg computer games) doesn't mean it will translate into another medium as successfuly - see almost every computer game turned into a movie for example.
It needs to be the right IP or theme. Whatever we may think about F&F it does perfectly translate into a themed coaster - as it always should have been instead of the rubbish Universal have so far delivered.
A shop is all it needs IMO.

Unfortunately I think the only rolling USH Creative have done is out the door as I believe they were let go during the Pandemic.Creative is on quite a roll right now, especially with coasters, and at least this attraction could at least be a good coaster even if the IP usage is meh. I'm hopeful
Mostly agree, my only hesitastion here is around that crucial theme park element - Merch. Is F&F a goldmine for Merch like Jurassic, Nintendo & Potter are or is it a bit 'meh'?Pokemon may be raking in money as an IP, but Fast and Furious, whether you like it or not, is a billion-dollar franchise that's still going strong after two decades. Of course Universal is going to prioritize representing their own IP in their own park. You may find it a boring IP, but... clearly the world doesn't think so, otherwise the films wouldn't be so popular and Universal wouldn't be trying to fix their Supercharged mistake by giving the property better ride representation. F&F is a goldmine IP.
AmenFor what its worth I dont think Pokemon is coming to USH, like, ever.
