One of the things that most excites about the Rip Ride Rockits replacement is the chance of adding universals current level of theming and facades to the ride. Base image by @bioreconstruct.bsky.social

Describe yourself using 3 fictional characters

Is Lego not satisfied with Merlin Entertainment?! Lego just spent $269.5 million acquiring the 29 lego discovery centers! While it could just be a business move as Lego says they appreciate Merlin Entertainment, Legos desire for more control over the brand image says the opposite

Universal Orlando’s Minion Mayhem could look 10 times better if they built a facade around the show building

The new logo looks nice but having the E ticket of a major theme park just be a section of track backstage instead of building the futuristic city shown is a major flaw of Test Track. Maybe they will fix this with a 4.0 version

It will be interesting to see what results in the Abu Dhabi castle with Disney saying "incorporate water for the first time in the design of one of our castles" as other castles have used water before but just as fountains in front of them

I have had the privilege of meeting and talking with the President of Walt Disney World Jeff Vahle! He shared valuable advice on risk taking, analytics, and the mission of the company

Outside of increasing the draw of Universal Studios Florida, Rip Ride Rockets replacement biggest win will come in the form of park utilization and crowd flow. As universal is relocating the entrance from a crowded area into a rarely visited area that is also getting expanded

I am surprised Disney has yet to build a hotel that connects to the Magic Kingdom. It would be an easy money maker and can connect it to the existing resources of the roads, monorail, and walking path. Plus they could even give it an exclusive park entrance

Surprised Florida's Revenge Of The Mummy has not been cloned with different themes in other universal parks. Its a great layout and blend of dark ride scenes with coaster portions that could be easily adapted into other themes. Images by Universal and ThemeParkLore

A look into what the future holds for Rip Ride Rockits Replacement at Universal Studios Florida

Universal is testing out more Scooby-Doo in there paid event, The character is coming to fortnight, and the character is getting a live action show on netflix! This could be the resurgence of the character that it needs leading to a bigger presence in themeparks

Seeing Disney expand the Incredibles costume characters line up with great translation is incredible

Should a big name theme park bring Taylor Swift to there park?

Mission Bermuda the only current operating innovative Mack Ride rocking boat system fits almost perfectly in the supercharge plot. By placing part of the queue in the San Fransico candy company building connected with a bridge Universal could drastically improve the space and even bring back Jaws

One more week till Rip Ride Rocket Closes 🎉. Maybe then we will have a better idea of what theme the replacement is? Either way a new modern Intamin that is on the level of velocicoaster or hagrids would do wonders for the park

Here is my idea for a new Tomorrowland that would expand its offerings while keeping some existing rides in a way that maximizes its potential for the guests and Disney

One of the best things about universal UK is that the already high budget will go even further as unlike other universal projects like velocicoaster that had parts built in Europe a common theme park manufactures hub, universal won’t need to spend a lot of money to ship stuff far

My predictions for the next 10 years at Universal Islands Of Adventure

YouTube video by Park Mind The History & Economics Of The Universal Orlando Hotels

From opening with zero hotels to now having 11. Universal Orlando has drastically expanded over the years in an intresting story and strategic placement. This is that story and the economics behind it:

Tsunami Warning Prompts Low Floor Evacuations at Disney’s Aulani Resort in Hawaii A tsunami warning has been issued for Hawaii after an 8.8 earthquake near Russia. Aulani guests are being evacuated to higher floors.

Aulani guests are being told to move to the third floor or higher as a tsunami approaches Hawaii. Our thoughts are with everyone in the wave's path. diservations.com/tsunami-warn...

There has been mixed feedback on the IP for HHN 34. Love or hate the choices though this is the best move for the event and future bigger budget productions of it. This is because with this lineup Universal is able to cater to different genres of fans to attract the most people

This year at Horror Nights Orlando #HHN #HHN34

Hogsmead, Hogwarts, Forbidden Forest, Hogwarts Express, Diagon Alley, Knock turn Alley, Ministry of Magic, Paris, London, Wands, & Magical Creatures: The amount of stuff Universal Orlando has beautifully created and made real from harry potter is incredible

Given the popularity of the Hogwarts Express and that it encourages the sale of park hoper and express tickets while reducing crowds entering the parks entrance, I am surprised Disneyland hasn’t introduced a similar attraction

It’s a great way to use IP to sell an ICEE to kids but it’s so funny and embarrassing that when you want an ICEE you need to order a smurfberry instead of blue raspberry. As for flavor 10/10 it’s smurftastic

People think Disney can't replace Animation Courtyard because of the animation building. But you can still replace launch bay to build a ride the size of Runaway Railroad. We lost Muppets and are getting a subpar land not because Disney can't but because they choose not to

I wonder if we will get a peak at future universal orlando projects in some of this Docuseries? Currently despite active construction and permits we do not know what the future projects entail

In 2018 the Jurassic Park suites at Loews Royal Pacific were refurbished to be Jurrasic World. While this is a big improvement I wish they could have kept some of the old theme and give guests the option between the new or old films
