@@abhorrence they’re replacing fear factor with a new VR Harry Potter ride. I honestly don’t see the fascination in VR. Personally I think they should do a trackless dark ride similar to Rise of the Resistance themed to Ministry of Magic.

[@drewadventurehistory]

If It is a moving walking ride of the minions then it might be the least ride in park just like Fast & Furious supercharged is I think this is the worst idea A Secret life of pets is a great idea to replace Shrek 4-D I wouldn’t mind if they put a another Illumination film attraction besides Despicable Me and the Minions Because just like Disney Universal needs new IPS in their parks

The suggestion of a Creature of the Black Lagoon river ride reminded me of when I thought I saw that monster in a Universal river ride.. then later I found out (via family photos and KZbin videos) that my memory had confused it with MGM Grand Adventure's backstage tour. Strong image memory, but wrong location. But I mention this to say that it sort of existed somewhere, and could exist again ~

[@abhorrence]

I overheard one of the workers at Universal last week and they were taking to someone about heading firsthand rumors that the “broom thing” would be a quidditch focused attraction

[@Majesticgroundhog]

LMAO. A 'Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter is Dead' reference? LMAO. A+

[@alec8087]

I know this is a hot take, but I honestly wish they were using the whole Shrek building for a new attraction. This would give them more freedom and would have more of a chance of it actually being an awesome ride instead of a conveyor belt. With all of the warehouses Universal has, I'm sure they can find another Haunted House spot. Even Blue Man Group could be an option as just one example.

[@omarnoble4788]

I agree. I love HHN, but a two month event should not dictate the realization of a year round 10 year attraction. That is just crazy to me. USF's entrance really needs to be reworked, so thought pets with a more expansive facade was perfect. But ultimately, if your biggest fans are already making fun of the fact that it's not fully a ride then you shouldn't move forward with it. That said, F&F proved they don't really care.

[@alec8087]

@@omarnoble4788 Universal has made some really amazing choices the past few years (Hagrid's, Velocicoaster, even Bourne replacing Terminator), but they've also made some really bad ones (Fast and Furious and Jimmy Fallon). Studios desperately needs another actual ride where you move on a track or trackless and isn't completely screen based.

A new Podcast, yeahhh 🤩 And I don’t like theaters as well, I just want rides 😄

[@Cheezbat]

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’m not excited at all for either attraction for Studios….and I really don’t want to see another Spiderman clone at Epic Universe. I want trackless dark rides, boat rides, indoor coasters, elevator rides, unique stuff like the carousel…I want this park to be better than anything else they’ve ever built.

[@ThemeParkStop]

Even though it is rumored to use the same motion base as Spider-Man, the Ministry concept sounds more like some sort of elevator ride to me. It’ll definitely feel completely new I bet.

[@jonathanwallis3300]

@Theme Park Stop I kind of agree with you. However I am slowly now starting to have some doubts on most of the attractions at Epic Universe. I used to be hyped up as heck for this park, but the more I see the ride patent videos, and how you explained them, I am worried that the Epic Universe park is going to lack A LOT of Big Thrill Rides when compared to 1999’s Islands of Adventure. It would be very ironic if EU opens up, and the main complaint from guests would be “too many family rides, not enough thrill rides,” while back when IOA opened, the complaint was “too many thrill rides, not enough family rides.” My other big worry is that every land in the park is going to suffer the Diagon Alley syndrome, where the lands are flawless, but the attractions within them are lackluster at best. There is nothing wrong with highly immersive lands, HOWEVER when the lands are more immersive and attractive than the rides within them (isn’t that the whole POINT and FUN of going to a theme park, to ride the RIDES), there is a big, BIG problem.

[@ThemeParkShark]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@DrFrankenolly]

In regards to Mummy refurb, I’m a production tech in the industry, a friend of mine was telling me his friend (a lighting tech at universal) said that the legacy rides at universal had a new LED lighting package installed during the last refurb, however they failed to update the program that sequences and runs the show lights for the ride. The change from traditional halogen lights to LED is huge and due to this oversight it was never quite the same as before. Lights would snap on and off instead of smooth fades. So this was something that has been on the list of fixes for a while. Definitely one of many fixes that is being done but just thought you’d like to know some “insider-baseball” info.

[@YourPrimoBrian]

Hear me out on the new Minions attraction...You "Become a Minion" across the street., then they send you to the new one for "Minion Training". Interactive shooting gallery where you're testing out new blasters. Maybe even get to fire your own "PISTOLA DE PEO" (Fart Gun from Minion Mayhem). I'm here for it. Makes that whole area a mini minions land and I'm for it.

[@tjmthegreat4009]

I am so up for a spinning rollercoaster

[@keeleon]

26:00 Well obviously they will be selling different blasters that do different things like the spiderman attachments at DCA. It would fit the theme of "convention full of villains selling villain weapons" perfectly, and actually be pretty cool if they added a little more interaction than just the "ride".

[@tjmthegreat4009]

I can't wait for the world's first stand through attraction 🔥🔥🔥

[@StripofPaper]

Ohhhh, they could make the dot pressure sensitive to work with the attraction and motivate guests to stay on it if they want it to work 🤔🤔🤔

So out of context, "Minions Banana guns that shoot purple goo". In Minions Gru used a Freeze Ray, could be the default option with more "Experience Enhancing Add Ons".

[@EmperorSephirothII]

As someone who uses a wheelchair, thank you for concerning yourselves with the ADA implications of these theme park attractions. Seems like not enough people pay attention to/care about these things...

[@ThemeParkStop]

Not only is it incredibly important so that more people can enjoy attractions, but we also find some of the ways attractions are designed specifically to be ADA compliant fascinating unto themselves. Thanks for your comment!

[@jonathanwallis3300]

“What else can they do besides of a broom factory-“ WAIT A MINUTE! IVE GOT IT! QUIDDITCH!! Remember that ride patent you mentioned about riders flying from there back facing downwards, and they were moving around a giant Omni max dome screen beneath them? How about, an INTERACTIVE VR/AR broomstick flight simulator attraction, where you are competing against a team in a World Cup tournament of Quidditch?! Utilizing that exact same ride patent! Think of it like “Flight of Passage” meets “Smugglers Run.” If you remember in “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,” there is a scene at the VERY beginning of the movie where Harry and his friends visit a Quidditch World Cup tournament that is located in the country side of the United Kingdom. I think the rest of the writing speaks for itself. What do you think?

[@reddcube]

Could the Minion ride be ADA accessible if they had separate stationary rooms with a wrap around projection. That way you can face forward and not have to turn to the left and right toward the different galleries.

[@frrrfrrr9177]

The new minions ride should have been like toy story mania in Disney but minion themed. I think that’s a better idea than standing while on a moving walk way moving 2 mph. Also don’t tell me they don’t have enough room in the building. That building is like 3 stories tall.

[@bigthrillsmike3950]

As much as I’m not a fan of the theme the ride concept sounds pretty cool

[@bryancurdi451]

I have my rumour about the ride that I made I think yesterday, where if you have balsters, you can go in a pre show and Gru says "you will fight along with me and Dr.Nefario to defeat the purple minions, to use the blasters you (however the blasters work whether its a button or something else), and for the safety reminder please stat on your dot." But I still do think villain con is more likely.

I also wouldn't mind if the Minions merchandise shop after the new attraction was a lab where you build your own gadgets after seeing some of them in action at Villain Con 😁

[@ThemeParkStop]

Love this idea!

[@t-shirt7549]

It would be cool if they had the guns and then you would shoot into a physical set and then like everything was breakable and it wasn’t just targets. Each set would be like you get a different gun like a freeze ray or fart gun or something and the freeze ray would like make things cold and the fart gun would obviously make it smell bad. Then your group would get a destruction score at the end so it’s like you work as a team competing with other groups instead of just versing the people in your car and there could be like daily scores for best minion cars at the end. They could also do the ghost affect from the haunted mansion where there is like a ghost in your car but instead it is a minion!!!

[@skylerdurance3007]

That cup of coffee video isn’t bad, it’s just nowadays people don’t understand why it’s there

[@jacobsimon452]

I was really hoping for secret life of pets. But I guess villain con will be interesting. Shrek 4d was great as a little kid but now it’s not as good. Shrek definitely deserves a land and a dark ride.

[@aaronriggan2373]

A moving walkway for an interactive attraction honestly sounds so bad... having kids running back and forth and thru other groups sounds so frustrating...

[@Shilly_JD]

There is no way that a moving walkway will work. This concept is a McGuffin, that cannot work in a theme park as busy as Universal. Unless it is a tunnel from end to end where people cannot step off the track, there is no way this will work. A single or double sided "omnimover" type ride is the right solution. My bet is that it will be exactly like "Toy Story Mania" with "ray guns" attached to the ride vehicle.

[@ThemeParkStop]

Glass railing walls butted up against either side would keep people on the moving walkway

[@lazilybusy]

When they were talking about the ride as a suspended elevator ride I was like "oh like tower of terror"? And then I saw the patent and was like "never mind...."

[@jonathanwallis3300]

It probably will have some air-time drop moments to help properly simulate the chaotic nature of the elevators. In the films, they work very similar to a “Wonka-vator” like he said, and you can imagine how crazy those are.

[@csrs247]

From what I read on the WDW forms, someone said that they believe Web Slingers was originally designed for Walt Disney Studios Park in Paris as they do not have Midway Mania there and at some point they just decided to copy it over to DCA. Also the transitions in Web Slingers are due to the size of the former Bugs Life theater. It will be intresting to see if they copy Disney and sell up charge accessories for the attraction that can give you new abilities and higher scores

[@ThemeParkStop]

Yea I wasn’t thinking they’d be upcharge blasters. I was thinking you just could get a different one randomly. But that would be interesting if they copied that model. And yes, web slingers is actually impressive given it’s tiny footprint. This will be even smaller!

[@jenlellig2789]

Thanks for the DTMTBSD reference, I love that movie! (In fact, I try to shout “Thank you Becky!!!” as often as I can) Also, as far as rumors go, has there been any talk about what might go in the Blue Man Group space?

[@ThemeParkStop]

They used the Blue Man Group theater for Grinchmas over the holidays. They may continue to use it for seasonal offerings like that for the near future.

[@marcussheen]

Love your podcast. I wonder if the guns will be mounted on the handrail which will move with the walkway (plus of course your dots!) - that would solve the problem of people not standing in place (apologies if you say this, I'm still watching). I'm not sure what to make of this attraction - I feel it could actually be quite fun if done well with some physical sets and a bit different, although I feel Studios is getting a bit left behind Islands of Adventure.

[@Javachacin]

The NY store’s broomstick ride is good, but a little rough, there’s definitely room for a more refined more immersive experience in the park.

STAND ON YOUR DOT. - Alicia 2022

[@kevinbhieey9188]

The Minions space is so narrow, I can't see them using a curved walkway. The most efficient use of the space would be straight moving walkways like those at airports. They would be far cheaper, wheelchairs can use them without strapping them down, and they're just less dangerous than the curving ones. (Not that they are death traps, but your feet are not stationary going around a curve and people are idiots. Lawsuit! Also, there's a moving walkway company called Alstef Group that makes curving versions and they clearly show a wheelchair using the non-moving pathway next to it.) Besides, Villain-Con is extremely geometric, so visually it makes sense to keep the walkways straight. Straight walkways also allow for railings that move, and railings that move can also hold guns, though that would bring up the cost and it seems like they are focusing on cost here. Then there's math. The building is 120' wide so I'm assuming the space they are working with is 60' wide. If there are any practical sets, I don't see them fitting more than two walkways side by side. The building is 170' long. OmniMovers go about 2 feet per second so we are looking at taking 85 seconds to get from one end to the other. Or 170 seconds to two lengths. Add in the time to walk from one walkway to the other - no curving! - and we're talking a 3-minute experience. That seems unrealistic. There are ways around that, of course: Slowing down the walkways seems the most obvious, but how slow can they go? Airport walkways move at about 1.4mph, close to the speed of an OmniMover. Slowing them down to 1mph means it takes 2 minutes to get to the end, and 4 for a roundtrip. And we can't get slower than that or throughput is horrendous, which is undoubtedly why they went away from a start-and-stop walkway to a constant one. Getting 4 people on the belt every 10 seconds - at the 2' per second speed - is 1440 per hour and 5 seconds is 2880. The sweet spot is somewhere between those two. BUT, at 2 feet per second, each group is only 5 feet apart at 10-second intervals and 2.5 feet apart at 5-second intervals. The only real way to up throughput is to have larger groups, and larger groups means something on both sides. That would be a tolerable level of throughput. I still can't get over the length of the whole thing. It's gotta be longer and if they can't slow it down, then they have to up the number of walkways. And that means no practical sets. Which I don't think will work with moving walkways anyhow. If the theme is being at a booth, and the walkway doesn't stop, then the booth can't stop either, and a moving physical set is unrealistic for a C-Ticket. Here's what I'm picturing, (I do wish I could draw this): Four parallel walkways and two 170' screens. (It goes Walkway 1 - Screen A - Walkway 2 - Walkway 3 - Screen B - Walkway 4, with the odd Walkways going in one direction and the even ones in the other.) The "walls" of the booths are on the railing - they don't have to completely cross the walkway as they are more of a psychological barrier - which circles with the long screen. So 2-4 people are ushered onto Walkway 1 after the first wall curves around from Walkway 2 and onto Walkway 1. The next wall curves around and "encloses" that group. This allows the next group to be loaded onto the walkway immediately, keeping throughput high, which is a necessity considering how packed Despicable Me always is. The length of this first walkway is one "booth", the video of which moves with you asking Screen A. At the end of Walkway 1, a Villain-Con attendant makes sure people don't fall and die as they are guided around to Walkway 2, which uses the backside of Screen A. At the end of that "booth" another attendant prevents death onto Walkway 3, which uses Screen B for its booth. Then once again onto Walkway 4, which uses the backside of Screen B. The end. This gives 4 booths, about 8 minutes, high throughput. I'm having a hard time believing it's going to be an actual shooter with this timeframe and what appears to be a limited budget. Especially considering every gun would need to be fairly high-tech and they are going to need thousands of them. I think it's going to be something more like shooting the gun and something funny happens onscreen. This allows for a wide variety of results, which ups the re-standability of the experience. Hopefully you'll find out more info so I can know how many things I got wrong!

[@kevinbhieey9188]

Is there more info on this Wizarding World Theater? Because 5 stories is awfully steep for so few seats. Something like Horror Make-Up, Shrek, Bourne... That's more seats but they aren't "five stories". That's more like stadium seating, like Fear Factor and Sindbad. But clearly those hold way more seats. I'm picturing the rally scene at the end of Grindelwald. Simple theater-in-the-round with steep, concrete seating. It wouldn't have to follow Fantastic Beasts, it could just use the look of the theater to appease Voldemort Rowling. With this size, it can't be a spectacle like Sindbad, so probably something more like a magic-themed version of the Bourne show. That said, remember that patent where the seating sections can be moved via robotic arms? It was rumored to be a Zelda ride but when I first saw it, I immediately thought of the room where Harry Potter was put on trial. That's an elongated hexagon located in the British Ministry of Magic. The patent shows a perfect hexagon, but the patent is about the moving bits and not the shape. Elsewhere in the patent it shows different shapes - including a triangle, which obviously makes one think of Zelda's Triforce, but I think that's more about keeping their options open. These theme parks always have alternate ideas for their ride systems. An elongated hexagon is easily worked around by starting with three sections clustered together at each end with the gaps between the groupings serving as the entrances/exits. The main cast probably isn't going to ever film again, so the show could be a trial of somebody else, someone who's totally guilty and starts going crazy with spells, like one that make the observers all levitate. Also, special effects. This could be a relatively short show and it could run constantly. The biggest problem, really, is if they are referring to this as a theater and not a ride, because it think it would technically qualify as a ride. But would it need to be five stories? That sounds more like the elevator ride, which definitely needs some height to it. Are these actually two different attractions? Maybe the elevator ride is also the "theater" and the back building is for an elaborate dark ride?? Getting exciting!

[@ThemeParkStop]

There is more to the structure than just the theater. The theater is only part of it, but I think the permit is also counting the British Ministry’s entry hallways and atrium, which could account for the 5 stories.

[@JerseyEmpireGroup]

I wouldn't be upset if they delayed how to train your dragons permits in lue of DreamWorks Island cause I think that concept would carry more weight behind it bringing Trolls, Madagascar, Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, and How to Train Your Dragon all to the same place.

They might have you use your own smart phone as a blaster gun. They can have you download a app to turn your phone into a gun that works with the screens in the ride.

@@ThemeParkStop Yea, she even has a similar voice to yours in the show so that makes it even better! 😄 Also the way you were describing the walkway concept for the new Minions attraction reminds me of that one joke from Fairly Odd Parents were Timmy is on an escalator with his parents and he says “When are we going to get on the ride?” And the parents are like “This IS the ride! Who-Hoo!” 🤣

Ok. I’m starting an “Everyone mail Alicia all of the Autumn Blaze things” campaign now. That’s a compliment for sure (I too had to Google)
