Universal Orlando August 1 Press Conference

I don't think they'll do 2 parks with a compass logo

 

[Viveen]

I hope we get a Shrek Boat Ride and also in the Classic Monsters Land we get a Haunted Mansion style ride!

I don't know, that is exactly what it looks like. And if "Worlds" as part of the name and there are four of those worlds, a compass rose makes sense. Maybe we'll see the IoA logo change...

 

[Scott W.]

You’re right, it’s less. I’m quoted at $17.81 right now from MCO to CityWalk.

I was referring more to the cost of getting an Uber from Disney to Universal and back again, a 2 park ticket for the full experience. Probably need 2 days. If she’s travelling alone that’s nearly $350. If

It’s very much “of a time” and could use a refresh.

[Scott W.]

A space compass is such a badass sounding tool.

 

[ReelJustice]

lol

 

[Scott W.]

Without even seeing it, I think we can all agree that it’s better that DHS’s logo?

 

[ChrisFL]

Epic Escape!

 

[KFCbowlcombo]

I recall Uni filing a trademark for "Epic Universe" back in 2018. Could this also include a Resort Rebrand announcement ? I don't think it's coincidence they included the word "Epic" in bold.

Might be just my love of space equipment and stuff, but even without seeing the font and wording reprsented..I love it. Especially when brightened up, you can notice a lot of fun details they put in to just the potential back side.

To speak of Epic Universe..Didn't someone here bring up of WB potentially going into a legal dispute over the Fantastic Worlds name, before that died off into an obscure post?

It was brought up rather recently, saw it brought up in either the blue sky or general expansion one last week. That and universal seems to like the word epic a lot recently, or at least their marketing department does.

WB let their extension expire without pursuing further action. Meaning Universal is allowed to use the mark.

 

[Scott W.]

I think Epic Universe speaks better as a whole for the resorts than a single park.

 

[mrpeng1]

I think Epic Universe speaks better as a whole for the resorts than a single park.

Agreed, but most people I know use the word Epic to mock what ever comes from Ben Shapiro or Gearbox these days. They would probably make fun of the park name and view it as more of a joke.

 

[WAJAS]

The new county mayor is doing a big push for an upgrade to the mass transit system in Orlando next year with a new tax. Plus, Lynx is finally in the black for the first time in years. I wouldn’t be surprised if the county mayor showed up to the event to show his support for any transit initiatives Universal is helping with.

 

[snayberry]

I can't believe this is really happening. What a time to be alive.

Universal Orlando To Announce New Property Details on August 1 - What To Expect - Theme Park University

TPU is saying to not expect much at all, but TPU themselves will reveal a ton of stuff before August 1st

After their last couple of blunders (Donkey Kong coming to SNW Japan next year, the whole "inhumane" article) I don't believe them. Probably trying to cover all the bases before the announcement.
