The resort already has a state of the art stunt show. What they need is a high quality musical stage show. Something like Grinchmas!, but good for all seasons.

Didn’t Uni distribute Spectre? Dunno if that would’ve given them a free license (no pun intended) to do Bond, but in any event the appeal of synergy likely made Bourne more appealing.
Of course, I assume they’re going to have to find a new show for HHN.

Part of me wishes Kong would have been put where Sindbad is now. With a little 8th Wonder Expedition Food Outpost and Gift Shop. The current space would have been saved for another JP ride of some kind
Buuut, I also like where they decided to put it and it probably cost less
Yes, and also a mythology themed Mack Mega Coaster :freak:I was just looking up at the bluesky and had a thought.
How about Universal teams up with Peter Jackson/WETA on an EPIC mega E-Ticket boat ride. One so good they could do the Disney thing and base a movie on the theme park attraction. Take both Sindbad and Poseidon and combine the land for the MASSIVE show building. And the theme is...
"Orpheus In The Underworld"
The Ferryman takes you down The River Styx into the bowels of the earth so Orpheus can convince Hades to release his beloved Eurydice.
Make it a Pirates/Shanghai scale adventure where you encounter gorgons, a cyclops, LOTS of dead people and the God of the Dead himself. It is a love story for the ages. And one of the tales they literally created the word "epic" for.
And we get to keep Mythos!
“Hadestown: The Ride”I was just looking up at the bluesky and had a thought.

I was originally thinking Perseus vs Medusa. But then thought of the final scene of a Perseus AA standing there triumphantly holding up Medusa's severed head and thought, well...maybe not.“Hadestown: The Ride”
I think a Shanghai Pirates type “Voyages of Sinbad” would better suited for LC though. At the very least, it could be more family-accessible than Eurydice. And I’d still put a “Trials of Hercules” dark ride on the Poseidon plot.
Herc vs Fluffy is a no go.Hercules vs Cerynian Hind
Hercules vs Hydra
Hercules vs Cerebus
Hercules vs Cretan Bull and the Minotaur
Hercules vs Garyon
That ride would be wicked.
You'd be surprised how much wasted space there is in Lost Continent. The land is honestly huge, but you don't feel it, because most of it is currently occupied by Poseidon's Fury, the abandoned stunt show/stadium, Mythos, Fire Eaters and since all attractions in the land are closed right now, it's really just turned into a land that people walk past to get to Potter for about the last 10 years.I'll ask the dumb question that may have been asked before.
Unless UC moves backstage stuff/expands their literal current area (remember the fun buying Dr Phillips rumor?) is there anyway for IOA to expand behind LC to extend that area a bit? I just feel Zelda needs more space if this is what the best option for that area is.
If not, Im KFP all day long. IOA needs indoor stuff, SO GIVE US AN INDOOR LAND
*Looks at Sindbad and Poseidon spaces*You'd be surprised how much wasted space there is in Lost Continent.
In all reality, we're spit balling hereUniversal doesn’t have this area earmarked for Zelda?
I mean, how else am I going to get my permanent bridge to USF?Some of the support facilities could move to the south property theoretically. Or the could do things like they did for the Hogwarts Express where it just goes over support facilities.
The ‘proposal’ blueprint of Nintendo had something called a puzzle theater, which presumably would take place in one of the dungeons from the games.Back to Zelda, what attractions would they even create from the game?
I have to wonder if the average park guest knows what those things. They aren't as ubiquitous as, say, Mario KartGoing blue sky, they could do mine carts through Goron City, boats through Zora’s Domain, a dark ride in Hyrule Castle, etc.
