Imagineering Question of The Day
This is a rather special question, because this is just Part 1; Part 2 comes tomorrow.
2020 is Universal Orlando Resort's 30th anniversary; and Islands of Adventure's 21th anniversary. It is also Marvel's last year on Universal Resorts; being that Disney has the rights to Marvel. What would you consider to be the best replacement theme for Marvel Superhero Island?
Marvel Superhero Island will be replaced by Sci-Fi Springs in 2020, and based around science fiction, with a new attraction on the lagoon similar to Auqatopia. And add a new Back To The Future ride in the place of Storm Force Accelatron.

I'm not really sure why Nintendo won't fit in IoA. I think it would fit perfectly, especially Zelda.
Because, Islands of Adventure's theme to adventures in exotic worlds and in literary works is a complement to Universal Studios' theme of being part of movies and tv shows. So having a video game theme; like Nintendo; in IOA or USF/O may sound good on paper but when you put that idea into practice it fits in perfectly as a butterfly in a wasp's nest. So the better solution for having Nintendo would to establish a third gate based on video games.

In theory I would agree..but most likely I think they will just make it a land or mini-land in one of their 2 parks.

Just posted my idea for a new land in AK. I will cross-post this idea for those who don't check out the "The House Cup" thread very often.
I just came up with a perfect new area in Animal Kingdom. Since Avatarland is currently be constructed on the former Camp Minnie Mickey location. I decided to come up with a new land/area which can be similar to Camp Minnie Mickey but a bit bigger and more stuff to do. Ever since Camp Minnie Mickey closed, this causes some guests to become a bit unaware of where you can meet certain Disney characters bedsides Mickey & Friends. While you can meet some of them at Rifiki's Planet Watch it still becomes unnoticed by most visitors. So this new section of Animal Kingdom can give guests easier access to various Disney Animal characters that don't come out very often (Mostly the ones that pop up randomly without a meet and greet schedule).

This new section is half themed to a Woodland Forest and a Jungle. Complete with new attractions themed to either of the two and won't be like the type of rides at Bug's Land in DCA. I don't got any ideas for the attractions so far but I imagine them to be fun for all ages. Anyway this area is where guests can meet uncommon Disney characters like Thumper & Miss Bunny from Bambi, Terk, Miko. Another characters that might make a return is Thumper's Sisters since I remember seeing old footage of the Disneyland 10th Anniversary special and I remember seeing a group of bunnies who appear to be Thumper's sisters.
