    Back To The Future: Time Warp sounds so cool. I hope Universal decides to bring this rollercoaster idea BACK. I am a huge Back To The Future fan myself, and this sounds way too cool of a ride, if they also add in some modern day technology

      It's still crazy to me that they never tried again, it's a shame everyone seems to be focused on Asian expansions lately because I feel a Euroversal park could still work if it's the right park in the right area! - Luke

      @@ReviewTyme so do I. I propose Spain as first option. Spain was proposed for the actual Disneyland Paris as first place but our the incompetent governments stop it with stupid excuses. My country as 2 nd tourist destination in the world would be perfect. Our weather, food, culture, airports and trains offers a good business to create it here. It is only my opinion but I think many think the same

    I still don’t get why so many major theme parks avoid Europe or places like Australia. Universal already has japan and Singapore and Disney is in Tokyo and Hong Kong.

    • @GPXBrent
      @GPXBrent 3 года назад +1

      Spain would be logical with the weather, but I'd say Germany is more central. People from Germany, Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Denmark, Austria, Poland,... would be in a decent distance from the park and would be able to visit. Though Spain has a lot of tourists already that could make the park popular.

    Opening the park in Germany would be a really dumb decision. Just like opening EuroDisney in Paris was. If you want a theme park that runs for as much of the year with as close to full capacity as possible, you need to place it in a country where the weather doesn't suck for at least half of the year. And countries like Germany and France suffer from that problem.
    Both Disney and Universal would be smarter to open their parks in southern european countries like Portugal, Spain, Italy or Greece.
    Not to mention wages in those countries are far lower than in Germany and France.

    I think there's just too much competition from other great themeparks in Europe that are WAY cheaper than Dinsey or Universal. Even today Disneyland Paris is the least profitable one out of all the Disney parks because most Europeans don't want to pay 2000 dollars for 3 days when you can get a park with the same level of theming and even more rides for like 10-50 bucks. If Universal wanted to compete in the European market they would need a park AT LEAST as big as say Disneyland with same amount of rides, etc... why else bother to go there when you have other theme parks just a short drive away
