Lions Gate in talks for Hunger Games theme park attraction

[coolbeans14]

Has no one thought of Merlin- the company with prior in dealing with Lionsgate? Let's not forget they have the SAW area here in the UK, and Thorpe Park's Halloween event was all based on Lionsgate properties. He didn't mention which territories, so not necessarily US at all, Just sayin'

I'm on board if they Bring in Jennifer Lawrence pre "pixi cut". But for real though, what a bad idea and it makes no sense. Sounds perfect for disney and their current regime.

I volunteer as tribute!

I can't imagine visiting a park like this. Would they gather all the guests at noon and shove their children into the hub, where the kids' tickets would be picked by some eccentric cast member?

You're all assuming they will go the "Hunger Games" with this and have children killing children... What about the beautiful futuristic Capitol of Panem? It would be an amazing experience/land if you could visit the Capitol with all the crazy citizens dressed up like crazy. Who said they had to include Revolution or Killing Children?

Oh you mean the city that uses an enslaved workforce to supply its wealth and prosperity?

Yea, that's a ton better.

But it doesn't matter what property it's based on, look at Splash Mountain! As long as it's a quality attraction about kids killing kids then it doesn't matter if it's a "fit" for Disney.

Someone should let the mods know about this thread before typical insanity ensues.
Not coming to WDW. Not coming to UNI. Not news.

 

[lazyboy97o]

Sounds like little more than satisfying the expectations of trying to leverage a franchise by all means.

 

[Sped2424]

For the love of God could someone stop Disney for doing another franchise, they have too many franchise in their company

lol no one here said this was a disney property and guessing the nature of the film doesn't really sound like it would be in a disney park.

 

[Pixie VaVoom]

Just in case anyone was wondering...I truly doubt they will be putting that in at "The Holy Land Experience" !!

 

[Fox&Hound]

NEVER HAPPENING IN ANY THEME PARK. PERIOD.

 

[billDozer]

i hope this is true could you believe the interactivity.

 

[HakunaMatata89]

is it April already?

 

[ewensell3]

Harry Potter Fan: "I want to go to Hogwarts!!"
Hobbit Fan: "I want to go to the Shire!!"
Hunger Games Fan: "Uhm, yeah... I'm good. Thanks."

 

[Darth Sidious]

Like I said Jennifer Lawrence has an open invitation to hangout whenever she'd like but the franchise as a theme park... No thanks.

 

[Jrn14]

I would love it...but I'm slightly demented...wouldn't want my kids to go though...if I had kids

 

[NowInc]

...somebody is REALLY over-estimating the popularity of the hunger games series.

 

[Bairstow]

What about a stunt show?

 

[MaryJaneP]

It is already at WDW, called the FP+ Games.
