Wicked: The Experience coming to UOR

[TheUniC6]

Since UGB has a no Orlando clone mandate, I wonder how they would tackle it for each resort. Maybe UOR gets something themed to Emerald City, while UGB gets something unique that pulls from the second movie

As for rides, some large scale family trackless ride with no height requirement. Maybe there can also be some carnival style flat rides too.

I'd guess Wicked will get either a hyped up show like Dragons in Epic, or more probably, a hybrid attraction like Potter & Monsters Epic received. I 'd guess Universal will shy away from a coaster or simulator for Orlando since they don't want to get too out of balance with attraction types like they've done in the past. Counting RRR replacement, three of the most recent D/E tickets have been coasters (Hagrid/Velocicoaster/RRR replacement). Only Bourne, which was an equal swap for a closed Terminator attraction was a non coaster. All the other stuff was just minor B/C type attractions (Villaincon/Dreamworks land).

I do think a really cool show is perfect but Woodbury's use of the word significant and also attraction(s) plural makes me think they are looking at something bigger (unless he simply meant an attraction at multiple parks)

Let the VR ride concept die, please!

Better yet--change it to a traditional Flying Theater with us on "brooms".

This would definitely load faster.

I’m actually all for an “Escape from Oz” broom ride though. Now there’s actually some justification for a Kiamo Ko section.

And then hopefully they can upgrade it with the Conference of Birds for Son of a Witch.

A Flying Monkeys suspended coaster through and around the witches castle would be epic.

I vote for a lavish dark ride for all ages.
