You sound like a total bully to be honest.

truth is, i have been eyeing this sort of layout in that location for quite some time but it makes no sense to double the amount or work and disruption.

The article doesn't relitigate the question of IF this is happening. I am fully aware of the capital required for an undertaking of this nature - I cover this stuff all the time. Again, I urge you to read the article before assuming none of that was considered. If you dont want to, here is an...

I refer to my previous response. This was not discussing whether it will happen or not. You could have clicked on the link and read it first, probably less mouse moves than finding an old thread

you may be one of only two who took the time to read it. I dont know why its been put in a "will a fifth gate happen?" thread. I am very clear what the article is about. I set it up as a stand-alone thread for a reason. what do you mean by "barely fit" - every park is oversubscribed, MK has a...

Some time on what exactly?

New Sheriff in town, did Daddy Josh promise to be as bullish as Comcast are? Or is he Chapek 2.0 with a sharpened axe? I'd be interested to know what the guy will do now he is holding the wallet. Ever optimistic, if he takes a leaf from Comcast, I’ve just published a long-form article looking...

Correct, the drainage basin for parks like Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure have lagoons that act as place to drain storm water in to - rivers was like that. now that has been moved outside the park. the decorative fountain ponds in Epic Universe are a closed water system with drainage...

If anyone is wondering what this clearance could look like, here's my earlier prediction. I cant quite work out if the plan is to set all infrastructure for future expansion of villains (or different IP) now and be able to come back to it Universal-style quite quickly. or if the villains is...

I was talking about the concept of an Epic sized park opening in texas not the exact same design, the point being if the park opened in a brand new location they would be starting from scratch with staffing and institutional knowledge - the assumption has been that because its florida and they...

Sounds like the park needs to stay open later and definitely doesn't need more maintenance time 😂😜

In regards to the AP discussion. It's pretty clear in international theme parks, that different demographics in combination contribute collectively towards efficiency of any park with groups bring different things to the table that drive profitability. In regards to the problems Epic is facing...

The point is incorrect. Extending open hours will not increase ride capacity at the times people are actually in the park. We were having a civilised discussion about why and they have a response. The issues affecting the park will not be helped by your "simple short term solution". The real...

I thought id already posted this information in here. Ride path measures 900 metres/2700 ft 2D flat (same as Tron in 3D) so might break 1000metres with elevations - i would doubt it will be going tron speeds for most of it so a 120-150s ride time seems an appropriate guess Radiator Spring...
