Could Horror Unleashed come to Atlanta, NYC, and Philly? The locations plus Chicago were picked for the Epic Universe portal tour after careful research. Such analytics would have a similar application for a Horror Unleashed venue with Chicago already being confirmed for one

If Horror Unleashed and the Netflix House are both still performing well in 5 years I could see Universal building a Horror Unleashed variant for Fan Fest

Over the last decade Hollywood Studios saw a massive changes to its park and Disney isn't done. I wonder what will remain in the next decade and how sacred they view the remaining portion of it

The Minion Land designed for Universal Kids fits perfectly behind the popular Minion land at Universal Studios Japan. Just a coincidence or signs of the future expansion 🧐

With Studios having the Macys Holiday Parade and Islands having Grinchmas; Epic Feels left behind with just some decorations. Given the holidays success at the existing parks I wouldn’t be surprised if Epic receives their own seasonal event. Right now though they don’t need it

In a world without Epic Universe Studios could have been a drastically better park. While these offerings were lost to Epic. In the end though this will be the best move. As it leaves Studios lots of room to still grow while increasing the resort size to compete with Disney World

One of Dinolands problems was its placement back in the park. This time around though imagineering looks to try and fix this by making the land peak into the entrance via the large temple. Making guests aware of it when entering the park and wanting to go and find it

The massive Expansion to Disney Adventure World isn't just big in terms of its debut but its future as well. As outside of Frozen and the Lion King there is room for 4 more future lands! But what should those lands be?

Despite being a fantastic and beautiful ride Expedition Everest is yet to be cloned likely due to its size. But Disneyland Paris could make room for it in there Adventureland using an expansion plot and the closure of Temple of Peril. The only question is would they invest in it?

Why did Skull Island: Reign of Kong succeed while Fast & Furious Supercharged crashed and burned?
After months of research and creation, here’s my 26-minute breakdown and analysis of it and why 4D rides just aren’t special anymore.

Interesting wording in Universal recent LinkedIn post. I don't think this is the end of Universal experimental locations and we may not just see more locations but new concepts as a whole 🤯🧐

One of the things that most excites about the Rip Ride Rockits replacement is the chance of adding universals current level of theming and facades to the ride. Base image by @bioreconstruct.bsky.social

Is Lego not satisfied with Merlin Entertainment?! Lego just spent $269.5 million acquiring the 29 lego discovery centers! While it could just be a business move as Lego says they appreciate Merlin Entertainment, Legos desire for more control over the brand image says the opposite

The new logo looks nice but having the E ticket of a major theme park just be a section of track backstage instead of building the futuristic city shown is a major flaw of Test Track. Maybe they will fix this with a 4.0 version

It will be interesting to see what results in the Abu Dhabi castle with Disney saying "incorporate water for the first time in the design of one of our castles" as other castles have used water before but just as fountains in front of them

Outside of increasing the draw of Universal Studios Florida, Rip Ride Rockets replacement biggest win will come in the form of park utilization and crowd flow. As universal is relocating the entrance from a crowded area into a rarely visited area that is also getting expanded

I am surprised Disney has yet to build a hotel that connects to the Magic Kingdom. It would be an easy money maker and can connect it to the existing resources of the roads, monorail, and walking path. Plus they could even give it an exclusive park entrance
