One would suggest that there's room for expansion. IOA didn't open with a massive number of attractions. Besides that, I feel that Universal are now leaning into experience park with rides as a bonus. The way in which they've pushed this "portal" entranceway (although I fear for exit policies) to make each area completely immersive shows this is at the forefront. Will be incredibly boring with the Universal and Disney fans pissing contest though.

Given that an image like this would be everywhere else right now I'm not exactly on the side of belief here.

The joke such as it is/was grated from day one. Now its just sad and probably far more off-putting to bother posting on here.

Glorious to see. Can't wait.

This.

Most airtime isn't exactly much of a claim. Probably get more driving down the M1 potholes.

Let's hope this happens more than once like every other similar project akin to this at other parks. Reverting back to old Samurai colours is a choice. That's capitalism for you. And why half the infrastructure in the country is in the state it is.

Is that from Hyperia's opening day?

Going to stress this now. Universal have ONLY confirmed the purchase of the land. They have NOT confirmed that they will build a park there. Let us not count our chickens prior to hatching. There are some houses on the Manor Lane road which exist right on the boundary of the purchased land. Would also depend on the location of the entrance and how they would plan to access it, as the nearest junction on the A421 essentially leads into the industrial estate. I'd also imagine any planning would require some serious road redesign. Even if its not too far from a decent A road.

The concept art is already at odds with the rumours of "no duplicated attractions". Wouldn't hang much on it since apparently its also old so likely just used as a convincer to investors if anything. Seems a tad more tangible in hope and sensible than London Resort was. Shall wait and see before though, as we've seen, there's a massive gulf in planning and getting it built.

God the colours look so bad without any blending.

Every park should have a Chiapas equivalent.

I'm glad the giant red arrow pointed out the track otherwise I'd have never have seen it.

Judging by the social media responses sounds like the new brand is that of someone claiming they're "blunt and being honest" when in reality they're just rude. "Twitter Bantz".

I wish I'd gone into Marketing. I swear so many redesigns of company logos just go full simplistic and dull. That they did 3 days of hype videos is amusing. Not sure the Photoshop lessons paid off for Silkstone.

That should be the standard response to a ride getting repainted. It shouldn't be treated like a big investment, should just be done on the regular.

Park Count Chessington x1 New Cred Mandrill Mayhem The flaws of having a baby. Though money was instead spent on Download Festival. We've now got a MAP so might actually go to other places next year. Wasn't any point going to Towers or Thorpe this season anyway.

Worst decision in the park's history. The concept art looks fine. Depends on if they actually use some depth in the painting of the buildings or just paint them in one flat colour and call it a day like Towers tend to.

A PLC upgrade won't make the trains actually comfortable though.

Maybe to suit the locals they'll rename it to "FORP"?

All the effort when the trains are still the biggest issue.

Technically that whole pyramid is.
