I think stardust is going away long term when it needs a re track and the other expansions have been filled. I would build a flat ride for celestial park and a new portal with a dark ride and a coaster in its place

If I had a nickel every time an epcot pavilion got cancelled and spun off into a themepark I would have 2 nickels. But it is weird it happened twice

Should Universal bring back a bigger better version of World Expo by putting Ghostbusters in the former Fear Factor stadium and building a Back to the Future coaster around the lagoon and backstage or use the space for something else?

A rumor for the plot of the land being developed near I drive and Epic Universe is a second city walk anchored by Horror Unleashed. If this does come to fruition I wonder if Universal will make Horror Unleashed more of a destination by including a roller coaster over the water

I can't wait to see where Universal Studios Florida will be in a decade. The park is littered with areas that are being replaced, underutilized, an expiring licensing contract, and a massive expansion plot

Coasters, Dark rides, Flat rides, Simulators, Boat rides, and Shows Universal Creative have mastered them all. But there is one type of ride system they haven’t and barely touched. A drop tower, could it be next or the left in the dark to continue innovation of what they know?!

While I do miss twister I greatly appreciate the improved facade the replacement brought to the park and I would love it see the remaining fragments of this older cheaper look at Universal Orlando updated to match the parks modern standards seen in a lot of the newer offerings

Epic Universe doesn't need the extra dinning. But what it does is more capacity, especially indoor ones. Making this building originally intended for a restaurant a dark ride would be a great pivot and quick fix to the already spent capital. Base Image by @bioreconstruct.bsky.social

Park Mind @aparkmind.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

In the decade leading up to Epic Universe Universal drastically improved every aspect of the resort. Now that Epic Universe is open Universal didn’t let their foot off the gas but speed it up. They aren’t playing to be second place but on a path to dethrone Disney

With universal expediting new additions to Epic Universe to meet the demand I wonder when a parade will be greenlit it is in the long term plans and would be a fast way to improve the park lineup while longer term solutions like new rides get built

If United Parks and Entertainment are forced to rethemed the sesame theme parks. A better move may be to sell them to another operator like universal who could be allowed to use the sesame characters and bring in their own as well and make it a universal kids park

Disney has developed massive improvements to projected animatronic faces yet chose to leave the version from 1998 untouched during a massive refurbishment 😭

What if Disney made the country bear jamboree a dinner show. The regular show could still play during the day but during the evenings guest could enjoy an exclusive version of the show while enjoying a meal. The infrastructure is there just the seating would need to be modified

Park Mind @aparkmind.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

Was thinking of the best use of this land and I would love if Cat In The Hat connected to Port Of Entry as a How to Train your dragon book report dark ride with hiccup sharing the story to others. To keep the Suess landing draw a Mount Crumpit coaster would be built as well

Park Mind @aparkmind.bsky.social · 05/03/2026

With Rock in Roller coaster losing the Aerosmith theme their is one licensed ride left at Disney World. While the tower of terror has its fans I believe the majority of guests just like it as a highly themed drop tower. Making me wonder if tower of terror is next.

There is enough room in Celestial Park To build a substantia dark ride like one themed to Captain Cacao. the only catch is the restrooms would need to be relocated or built around. For reference secret life of pets is 20,645 sqr feet

While Universal Hollywood isn't able to get a 2nd theme park with the land of the golf course next door. What if they bought and built it on the park and section of houses next door to its current resort? It would be pricy but provides universal and the city more value in the end

Supercharge is finally closing for good! But while the screen based aspect of the ride gets a lot of hate. Its underlying problem was how it was presented leading to hate while Skull Island received praise. It will be interesting to see if universal will try this system again or opt for a new medium
