    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    I don't know how reliable the claim is, but on a quick Google search, a common number for Disney Sea is around $2.1 billion. I just adjusted that for inflation and it seems to be about $3.9 billion today. I believe that Comcast released the number for Epic at about $7 billion, but I heard...

    Look how that turned out with Villain-Con and DreamWorks Land though. Yeah, the park desperately needs capacity, but they need to do it right.

    Is everything just IP mandate quota now?

    "Wildly popular" is quite the descriptor for a park that only has 5 rides and 4 shows total at the moment. If Animal Kingdom had adequate capacity, I have no doubt that this show would be empty beyond its first year of being new.

    Is everything just IP mandate quota now?

    That doesn't seem to be true. I think of attractions at Universal that should be slam dunks based on IP like Fast and Furious and Villain-Con and yet... where are those wait times? Disney has a capacity problem, giving the illusion that a lot of attractions are more popular then they might be...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Ah, I missed how you specifically stated the hub. Even so, from my experience in the park and from checking wait times somewhat frequently, the park does seem to empty out in the second half of the day. Speaking more broadly to the thread though, this spring break has seemed very light...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Honestly, yeah, I think AP entry after 4pm would actually work great in the park. I would come in later in the day when it cools down just to eat and maybe get a ride on Monsters and Stardust. I have a feeling that a lot of other APs would be content with that as well. Epic is a great "third...

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    I was actually searching for this topic recently and I can't find anything. Is there any concept art for it out there?

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    I went to the park yesterday and tried Blue Dragon after hearing that its food was pretty mediocre. To my surprise, I was actually blown away, with the dishes being constructed with high quality ingredients, skilled preparation and a depth of flavor that I did not expect. While the dishes seem...

    EPCOT Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    The story does specifically take place in China. Granted, not Han China, but still China. Would be funny to see the character meeting in the China pavilion and what reactions that might get.

    Luke Combs' Category 10 Coming to Citywalk at Universal Orlando Resort in Late 2027

    I don't recall how, but I ended up at Ole Red at Icon Park a few years ago and the food was pretty solid. If that quality can be maintained here, I can see this being a hit for City Walk, especially since dining capacity is already quite inadequate. That said, I wish that City Walk would open...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    It's bizarre when people have criticized the park for being too screen heavy, but want one of its better attractions removed. Yeah, you're right that people see the IP as outdated, but that in itself is such a poor judgement over the value a ride brings to a park. It never stops surprising me...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Why does everyone think that Men in Black needs to go? It plays an important role as a capacity monster and is never given credit for being the well designed shooter ride that it is.

    Rumor Eventual Fast & Furious: Supercharged Replacement

    I'm not saying this is going to happen, or should happen, but consider: The ride building is located in the San Francisco area of the park. The bus vehicle moves onto a motion base that can rock and shake the vehicle... kind of like an earthquake. It would fit like a glove.

    Distinction between "theme park enthusiast" and "Disney Adult"

    Because the ignorance of the fandom actively makes the experience worse for other people. If you're a fan of what Disney once did creatively in its parks, it's clear that a lot of that has been destroyed under Iger/Chapek has been replaced with a lesser product. The level of detail and...
