Universal's Epic Universe Wish List & Speculation

[shiekra38]

Is it possible different worlds open and close at different times? Monsters and Wizarding World (especially WW set in Paris) seem like two that would hold much more interest after sundown than Pokemon and HTTYD.

I don't think so, that seems a bit our of character for them

EU seems like a park that should open later and close later.....say like 10 to 10.....with variations depending on season of course.

I don’t think that’s right. It’s a counter service where you order at the register first, and then sit and they bring you your food maybe, but they don’t have servers taking your order at the table, do they?

Oh, that's right. I had almost forgotten about the ordering process at Kinopio's.

Patent from Universal Could Create Harry Potter Wand Battles with Real Energy Beams

We're digging into a patent that could allow theme park guests to have Harry Potter style wand battles with REAL electrical beam effects

Potential experience for Fantastic Beasts area?

Seems like that's something that could possibly translate to a hypothetical Ghostbusters attraction, as well.

I hope so so soo much lol

Bananaaaaa! This could also be for the new Villain Con attraction. In the end the possibilities are endless (if and when they get it to work). The fact that the abstract drawing of the emitter is very...suggestive...could even be...I'm not going there.

In my experience Universal typically does a "tester" before the main event

I wonder if this tech will be "tested" at Villian Con and then utilized to a much larger degree for Epic

Of course, I'm well aware that both are under construction

But from an ops perspective, it's helpful to have a smaller scale application first before you bigger integration

Villain Con would be that smaller scale test

Sorry for the double post, but I know we've discussed where SNW ranks on our lists

I think this video highlights many great things about the land that, perhaps, have been overlooked

Sorry to rehash this old topic but Screamscape is claiming that Lord of the Rings is the EU phase 2 project.

ah #%$@, here we go again

I can’t imagine a landscape where Universal has Jurassic Park/World, Harry Potter, Marvel, maybe a worthy Fast and Furious ride, Nintendo, Pokémon, AND Lord of the Rings. I know Disney has Star Wars, Avatar, and a lot of baked in nostalgia, but wow.

You forgot Zelda too…

Like a lot of people, my love for theme park news/rumors was born from reading Screamscape…now I feel kind of bad for them. I can’t believe they published something so unreliable, but I guess they have get clicks some kind of way. ‍

A sign? Lol.

A sign? Lol.

That resume ends in 2019, so take from it what you want. But it is interesting to know something may have been designed at some point.

No, Universal and Disney have libraries full of stuff they've "developed" that was never actually built

This. I will believe when I see.

I only believe it when Universal announces it two weeks after opening
