    News Cars-Themed Attractions at Magic Kingdom

    So this is not Radiator Springs Racers? Good move making this part of Frontierland and not its own Cars-land. RIP to Villains Land.

    News “Zootopia” is being created for the Tree of Life theater

    Winter begins at the end of December. I took "Winter 2025" as either this coming January, February, or early March. So the bugs would be getting squashed real soon.

    Survey Directly After Riding? Common?

    Fixing the 3D or bringing back the outdoor section will not elevate this Kong to the original's status. They'd have to rebuild from the ground up.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    Am I reading this right, you can't just buy a one-day ticket? I was also hoping for two days at Epic. One to run around Nintendo World with my son all day and the other to hit the rest of the lands.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    Was there concrete conversations among the public about Epic Universe in 2015? The earliest I can remember was 2018, maybe 2017, when the name was floating around from a leaked presentation during a private event. I vaguely remember conflict regarding hazardous waste when Universal re-purchased...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    Thank you. You articulated what I was trying to say earlier but much more succinctly. I was doing research before my last post and refreshed my memory on Pandora, and was shocked to read they only began exploring the idea months before they made a deal with James Cameron and announced the land...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    You're right on the first point. I remember Universal beginning construction on Kong, Dreamworks Land, Velocicoaster, and Minion Mayhem before announcing those projects. You took my original post too literally. Let's start with the facts. Universal announced Epic Universe on August 2019...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    I realize now my choice of words - in particular, the use of "active development" - was not the best. Let me rephrase my original statement - Announcements tell you when the concept is more or less set in stone and ready for the construction/building phase of development, barring any unforeseen...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    A creative team says "this is what we want to do" and the big brass gives them a stamp of approval. They share with the public and to shareholders. What happens next? Are you saying active development can start before a concept is locked down? Obviously, a concept can change over time slightly...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    Of course it was. Universal Creative doesn't dream up a new theme park on Monday night and announce it on Tuesday morning. Announcements tell you when the concept is more or less set in stone and ready to move into active development**. This doesn't change anything about my original statement...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    And four years between announcing the Splash Mountain redo and the newer versions' opening date. It will be six years between EU's announcement and opening date. Likely less, depending on when next year it opens. And that's not counting one year lost of productivity because of COVID. The...

    Just think back to 2020 when we were looking at an empty lot wondering if this was still happening.

    Would you pay top dollar to ride an attraction that's quiet and subtle?

    Wow, today's segment did NOT disappoint. I'm extremely hyped for this land and the ride.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    I'm not too hung up on this. A mummy is a mummy. Frankenstein's monster didn't deviate much from the Karloff version. Dracula looks the most updated from the original Lugosi likeness but it's fine. I think the only design I'll get religious about is the Creature from the Black Lagoon, but...
