Y'all joke but I bet this is still fresh enough in memory that it happens. Or maybe even Universal encourages it.

Millennials were a mistake, Gen Z has it right

It's funny to me how Dreamworks/Illumination films translate to meme culture so well

Shrek, Megamind, Boss Baby, Minions...

THIS is what Micheal Eisner was really afraid of when Universal came to town

Secret's out...the building is being gutted to turn it into a full time Shrek Rave! Apparently it's "a thing" among millennials...

Raving for Shrek, the Swamp Comes to Brooklyn (Published 2022)

A party in East Williamsburg invited fans of the 2001 film to translate into reality their online obsessions with the titular ogre.

Is there any room / is it on the cards for an even bigger minions expansion in this area?

I have a crazy idea lol…

Minions, for a more “thrilling” ride, would fit well in a Transformers like attraction…

That would actually be awesome! Have the storyline be that you’re joining gru on a heist, and minion mayhem can finally be used for something else!

Would any future minions attractions take place during the despicable me films or during the prequels?

You all do know the average minions fan isn't tall enough for a ride like that. It's a reason why most things minions are play areas and small attractions.

A spiritual successor to Mr. Toads, with higher tech and more capacity is what I would like to see

When rumors of Villain Con first broke back in 2018 when it was a trackless ride, the rumor said the booths had the ability to be changed out easily over time to keep the attraction fresh. Is this part of the rumor still true in the attraction's current form?

I mean, are not the "booths" just going to be projection surfaces? Would be fairly easy to update scenes if that's the case.

Though that's also been the promise of other attractions like Midway Mania and it hasn't actually materialized.

No. Not recently.

I have hinted at it before, but the setting for this attraction may not be what it seems to be.

They should retheme Rockit to Minions and change the ride vehicle to a banana...

So... The end of 2022 is gonna be coming up quickly, and if this is still set for a spring opening, shouldn't that mean they formally announce Minions here pretty soon? Maybe after HHN ends?

The lack of visible progress/updates is curious, but I unfortunately think we'll have to wait until after the holidays to hear anything official.
