Epic Universe Expansion Speculation

[Alicia]

I don’t think Wicked gets anything, anywhere. But we’ll see.

Or maybe the consideration for Wicked mainly is concerned in the overseas parks. Broadway type musicals are big in Japan and by the time UGB opens, there could be additional entires after part 2 to pull material from.

Didn't Wicked play in Osaka for a while. In the back of my memory, but I'm not positive.

Wait a second…. I’ve thought my username for 13 years, stood for Universal Studios, Orlando…….

Never existed.

I want so baaaad.

Reverse engineer it. Universal can't use Potter in USGB. They still have a desire to sell $$$ wands (that's kind of a Universal thing now, like Mouse ears at Disney), they have a hot IP that did VERY well on the west end that includes witches, wizards and MAGIC!

Thie is all speculation on my part, but the math's working out

I'm sure the brits will be excited to try that Butterscoth Munchkin Beer!

What am I looking at here?

What am I looking at here?

An AI generated image of "Hyrule Castle as a theme park area entrance." ??

I have no idea what this AI image is meant to represent. Whatever it ate and spat back up is generically unrecognizable.

I guessing Zelda.

 

[DarkMetroid567]

For a second I genuinely thought he wanted a Magic Kingdom portal at Epic LOL

 

[Mike S]

It’s Hyrule Castle from Breath of the Wild not destroyed and filtered through AI. It’s very obvious to nerds like me that have the different designs burned into their brains

Maybe some Cinderella Castle mixed in because the prompt included “theme park.”

A triforce above the portal may help lessen the confusion"

Portal tagline: "It's dangerous to go alone! Take this."

Eh, it is AI slop isn't it. I just wanted to see what Zelda section at Epic Universe would look like. It was based off the Hyrule Castle of Nintendo's Twilight Princess game.

 

[Andysol]

What wands in Wicked? No really, point me to one.

Glinda uses the ridiculous wand/septer in the opening scene. Madame Morrible gives Glinda a training wand at the Ozdust Ballroom and...

So it's used in one scene vs a series that literally makes it the defining aspect of starting school there. Got it. Yeah you're "the same" comparisons are falling apart. Shrek has magic too, and magic wands!

So ask for one, just one. No really, point me to one.
Gets shown one.
Dismisses it completely.

Never change, Joe.
