There's no such thing as "too much" marketing.
Right? Universal hooked us in with this era and IOA (specifically Spiderman) are why many of us are uber fans of theme parks todayYou build something as interactive or immersive as the IOA Preview Center, you’ll not only connect, you’ll create fans of the new park for life. That preview center molded who I am. It’s a core memory.
Plus....more people would have access since not everyone in City Walk ends up in the parks.^ Just like the Tribute Stores
My feeling is if they do a preview center, it's on CityWalk so people visiting either park have access.
Seems like the Legacy Store would be perfect, but if the escape rooms underperform...
....yes...and would be a cool segue into Epic opening.A monsters and HTTYD themed experiences would be cool.
A preview center would be MOBBED day one with media outlets and social media influencers.

I feel there is a space growing between us@shiekra38 I love most of your posts, and your sense of humor, but this nonsense has to stop. Now.
Ultimately, people will figure out Super Nintendo World is there and that’s all the marketing they really need.
Iger said the same thing about Galaxy's Edge and... Disneyland has one of the softest summers in the park's entire history.
The failure of marketing heavily for SWGE is probably the last time Disney will ever rely on a "hands off, word of mouth" approach to marketing. Word of mouth is the strongest form of marketing, but not if you can't get those initial mouths inside first.
The mixture of an online AND physical preview center will do a lot better results than just relying on TikTok influencers. A physical center will primarily assist Universal with keeping Passholders to renew once rates are increased to include 3 parks as well.
Just to add, Disney also scared away crowds with claims of shut down lands then tried their best to lock as many people out that summer.
Moving this here for the sheer spec of it all, but I wouldn't count this out for other elements in the land, haha."The Stakehouse" is perfect. Theme parks are supposed to be a little campy. And this is subtle. I'll bet many people won't even notice the spelling--at least at first. And they could have always gone the long-naming route. Something like "Professor Fartenmonsterheimer's Super Scary Eatery and Meatporium".
