Step 1:
Remove Dragon Challenge but put it in Storage

Step 2:
Gain rights to Game of Thrones for theme park use

Step3:
Build Game of Thrones land in new 4th gate with 3 to 4 rides around a sea. The forced perspective opportunities are incredible.

Step 4:
Have B&M build a third track to compliment the other two. (Or just build a new coaster with three tracks) for a ride bases on Daenerys' dragons. Station and queue would be Dragonstone. Ride would include props as targets for the Dragons to attack complete with them getting roasted via pyro.

Another ride would be a large scale Mack splash battle with ships that had a capacity of 20 to 24 for a sea battle with Kings Lang in being a part of it.

I love GOT, but I really don't understand why people want it as a theme park land.

I think the minimum age would need to be 18 due to all the nudity and gore haha

T2:3D will be the first and last property based on a rated R film in the Orlando parks (besides HHN.)

(I guess they forgot T2 was rated R due to all the action figures and toys that were sold based on it in the early nineties.)

EDIT: Apparently Backdraft was rated R too. Universal, you weird.

That is one of the roughest rides I've been on, it's really not aged well! There's probably a reason why no one else has bought one.

Wow, a rough wing rider. Intamin, you've done it again! :lol:

I love Scorpion, never thought it was rough, intense, yes, rough no; it breaks very hard though.

I don't consider scorpion at all rough, nor intense. It's practically a kiddie coaster lol

The track switches in Gringots, those were Dynamic, not? So perhaps the Forbidden Forest ride, could again utilize both Dynamic and Intamin?
