I want a Universal Monster Land. A good E-Ticket dark ride, maybe a C or D ticket ride - that should be where any year round haunt goes if they do one. No more Walking Dead.Noooooo. Anything BUT The Walking Dead. :ack:

I find this park interesting..They also have a Saw ride..Not sure this would work stateside everI found this to be interesting. With TWD attraction at UH, i wonder why they chose to do a year round haunt instead of something like this. Would have been a nice idea for the 3rd gate.
The Walking Dead: The Ride at THORPE PARK Resort
Ideally a Universal Monster Land would be epic! One of my favorite parts of USO is Monster Cafe. Would love to see what they could do with a clean slate of land. An indoor Dracula's Castle coaster styled like Revenge of the Mummy is a must.I want a Universal Monster Land.

Could UniverSal allow Disney to buyout their Marvel rights to finance LOTR rights while grandfathering the existing rides?
Where is LOTR theme park rights now that the settlement is a half year old.
I wouldn't put the goal for opening day much higher than 25 attractions.Rereading Disney Wars and Jaybangs as well as historical archives for past concept art and plans,
I would hope that UC would take the past philosophies of Gary Goddard, Jay Stein and others to create fully functioning lands. If you look at the original plans for Cartoon World, each land had around 5-6 attractions that were solely just rides before adding in shows, dining, and shops. The original USF attractions were unlike anything in the world and actively didn't try to be Disney or Disney like which USF stated is why they succeeded. They wanted a park were every attraction could stand on its own and not solely get attendance based on other attractions. Its like when you actually hear people screaming and having faces of fright on Disaster back in the day when all the effects were working compared to the meh faces that were seen in closer to end of the rides life. Or how previously intense the jaws finale was before previous iterations.
Disneyland has more than 60 attractions while DCA has ~ 28 attractions for at grand total of at least 88 attractions.
The combined total of Disneyworld's all four parks opened attractions is 53 attractions.
Currently Universal Orlando Resort dry parks have 39 attractions total.
I would argue for justification of value and to boost capacity, a park with the same number of attractions as Disneyland would bolster Universal. I mean an advertisement saying come to a Universal with two parks and a additional park with more attractions than Disney's four parks combined would bring in a great number of people especially if 1/3 are quality one of a kind rides USF was originally known for.
Lastly I hope they take into consideration the neurologic, physiological, and pyschological effects to enhance ride experiences to create greater dispersal of adrenaline, dopamine, and other euphoric sensations to make the park way more enjoyable and higher level.
Interesting... But that's not necessarily the case, since they plan to open parks and attractions in other countries. Consider that Dreamworks currently has rides in several non-Universal parks outside of the US. Sesame Street has attractions in Universal Japan and Singapore, but in the US the license is held by SeaWorld/Busch Gardens. Same with Snoopy for Knotts/Cedar Fair here and Universal in Japan, etc. Different markets, different licenses.Not sure if anyone else has come across this but it looks like any Lionsgate IPs for a 4th gate would be off limits Lionsgate hopes to be the next Universal Studios, plans theme parks and attractions around the world | Blogs

Universal great movie ride when ET finally closes.It would be cool if Jaws could show up in Park 4 in some capacity. Maybe not a full blown land or an expensive E-ticket, but would be awesome if it could have some type of good attraction presence. Jaws is iconic and even without the movie, shark's like dinosaurs and rocket ships never really go out of style ... especially for Florida tourists.
