YES! I'm getting excited over nothing, LOL. But it's fun to imagine.
It's fun because I actually feel like in the world of Universal right now, anything is a possibility.

You are so right. Anything really is impossible at Uni. There are so many things they could tap into and create and build. Endless possibilities.
More importantly I feel like they want to and the are trying to and they want to!
Unlike someone I know (TDO ... I'm looking at you.)

Exactly. They're making an effort.
That was kinda what I was going for ... I think it'd be so fun if it started out like the Great Movie Ride with slow moving animatronics then the monsters "get loose" and it speeds up sort of like Spider-Man ...
Ideally, something like that would replace Fear Factor Live - they could theme the building well to match the London Waterfront from HP2.0 if they held it in a mansion. The only other major expansion slot is behind MIB/Simpsons/KidZone, but I would guess that some/most of that would be used in the upcoming KidZone expansion/refurbishment (if it's still on track) - it would be nice if they built a new building to show an upgraded BTTF attraction with access between MIB and The Simpsons though.
Of course, it would be better beside Beetlejuice or Universal Horror Make-Up Show, but that can't happen (short of moving the theatres), or removing the rides beside them (Disaster or Terminator, which should both stay in the park), so that would be unlikely (unless they would then use the old theatres for another show, so it would be a case of "building a new theatre" either way.

Is Child's Play even considered horror? It's not even scary.

With Disney owning marvel now, it would also be nice to retheme the super hero area and maybe get ahold of DC comics (yeah I know six flags has the lead on any of that), but I had seen somewhere on the net once an old concept of Gotham City that would fit perfectly over there

Not to mention that Universal would do DC Comics light years better than anything in a Six Flags park.
Id love to see it!

Planet of the Apes mini-land would have cool "face" character streetmosphere!

And LOTR
I think a Tom & Jerry dark ride would be great in a refurbed kid zone. I feel like they are still relevant and timeless ...

There's a new show coming out on Cartoon Network this year plus everyone knows them, so it would fit.
I assume of course that there is still an existing relationship with Hannah-Barbera ... and these characters aren't used somewhere else.
I wonder too about the exclusivity of the Looney Tunes gang and Six Flags, they seem pretty intertwined. Outside of Mickey Mouse ... Bugs Bunny has to be the second most instantly recognizable cartoon character.
