Hi there! I used to live in Singapore and went to USS all of the time - I'd say it's still worth the visit! However, it is quite a bit smaller than either of the Florida parks, and their best rides are things you've probably experienced already in Florida (namely Transformers and the Mummy). If...

Well, it actually still exists at Disney as a chairlift at Blizzard Beach. But, they could make large air-conditioned cabs with windows that don't open. They could have perforated windows, or screen windows instead. They could install netting under the lift. They could have cameras put in. Point...

I could see them building an elevated transport system between the 2 sites in the form of a gondola, or something similar. People love gondola rides, and they would be changing an annoying chore (taking a bus) into a desirable experience. It would also be cheaper and less disruptive to construct...

What I would not do for a Rainbow Road-er Coaster.

My bet is that if they really do scrap Dragon Challenge, we get some form of Shrieking Shack interactive walk-through attraction, a la the upcoming USH Walking Dead attraction with wands instead of guns.

Looks like Expedition Everest re-themed to fit into a castle park might be first on the list for Shanghai expansion? https://twitter.com/tigerr05/status/675945916055085056/photo/1

I think one of the best things about Universal right now is that they are thinking outside-the-box, and obviously interested in some aggressive expansion. For those reasons, I think they will scoop that land and add a third gate. The transportation issues are a hurdle, but they're certainly not...

Is this ride pretty solidly confirmed then? I was hoping they were looking at the Walking Dead shooter that was exhibited at IAAPA this year for that space. It could work as Kong-esque mini land, and kind of fits with the whole literature theme of IOA (the tv series is based off of a graphic...

I agree a JW where Toon Lagoon is redundant and unnecessary. Might as well rename it Islands of Dinosaurs at that point, since they take up half the park. I could see a gyro sphere attraction with projections for the valley combined with live sets for more enclosed forest dinosaur-attacking-me...

Back to very strictly DHS, I had a question. Since we were talking about a Guardians possibility earlier, is there other Marvel IP's we know Disney can use? Or is that info we're not privy to?

I got this image from an employee at Universal Creative I stumbled upon online. It's captioned "It's getting there. . . #JW". Promising sign of things to come? :D

Okay, so not the best name haha, but you get my point. There are people paid much better than me to come up with the name.

My prediction/hope is that there won't be a specific "Star Wars Land" as it were, and both Muppets and Indy stay (in one form or another). It's obvious that SW will be massively present, and I think it will be the rich, immersive environment we all hope for. But who says these lands (namely SW...

My deepest apologies, I swear I had read that somewhere, but should've fact-checked and will be sure to do so in the future ;) HOWEVER, I think the point is still valid. First, I'm of the opinion that they've been doing even more than that $500 million they committed to. We know $1.6 billion...

I hate to be the "but Universal. . . " guy but. . . While $3 billion is an exciting amount of money being injected, it's spread over 10 YEARS! Universal has publicly committed to $1 billion a year, for the next ten years, so safe guess is $3-4 billion for each USF and IOA - and US has a...

Universal's third gate for sure. Just in the last 5 years, Universal has opened 3 new highly immersive lands (HP x2, Springfield), 3 new E-tickets (HP x2, Transformers), 4 other new attractions (Hogwarts Express, Ollivanders x2, Kang and Kodos, Raptor Encounter), a mini golf course, revamped 3...

TLDR: There's a good chance that Nintendo spells out a third park for Orlando, at the VERY minimum an immersive land with heavy attraction lineup. If it doesn't mean a second gate for USJ, I'll eat Mario's hat. Long time lurker on here, but couldn't resist finally weighing in on this one -...
