That's a very good point if there wasn't a healthy distance between them all For me it would really have to be something to take the crown from Alton towers the thrill capital of the UK by a long way Done all Merlin parks in the UK and a handfull in the USA Now as parks go Alton isn't beating universal studios, island of adventures, sea world and Bush gardens at a stretch But for frills if I was to forget three coasters from the Florida section of the US then they have nothing that touches treasures like nemesis Rita ect And even then they don't win on outright frills but an enjoyable ride more like the bigger rides at Chessington that are a bit to family safe for my liking almost as if they wanted the adult rides to be friendly to children which for me spoils Chessington for me I can't settle without a clear park status of a family park or thrill park but the uncomfortable mix never felt right for some unknown reason Alton just isn't big enough overall and with its hight restrictions it's truly amazing it does as well as it does But for me Merlin running universal studios Florida would make Merlin unstoppable they have next to no limits to work with Vs Alton's restriction of the tree line for their max hight
Yeah, but people aren’t looking for the London resort they’re actually looking for the UK Disneyland, and they’re are actually people who are interested in buying tickets to an actual UK version of Disneyland that is owned by Walt Disney and has been built by Walt Disney. So when people see that the park isn’t being built by Disney, they are gonna pull out and not buy tickets, which means most of the local areas are going to lose out. This is because international tourists are not buying into the tickets because it’s the London resort but because they think that the park is actually owned by Walt Disney, and when people find out, it’s not, it’s going to completely fall apart. This is what happens every theme park that claims to be a Walt Disney look-alike, people think that the park is on by Disney because of false advertisement and then people stop when they realize this is not Disney. Park attendance falls apart and then within a year, and then the entire thing is sitting abandoned and a blight the town in which it was built in, and then everybody Kent is complaining about it and they can’t get rid of it.
3 years is a really short time for a major theme park! From the plans this looks absolutely amazing!!!! I agree it looks more like a universal than a Disneyland! I have been to Disneyland Paris 2 times hoping to go next year or a few years, and I hope to compare these some time in the future! My sister would love the castle since she is Harry Potter mad!!
Definitely! There's been a few changes in the plans since I made this video, will probably film an updated one soon! Hopefully the park will still go ahead as it looks incredible!
I wish! Imagine having a Universal park in the UK 😱 It's a possibility, as you said the themes are all set up for a Universal park, so maybe it could happen! I'd love to see it!
@@maomoo3065 poor thing! I have been to Disneyland Paris 2 times hoping to go again next year and I will tell you kent is never big enough for a Disneyland and i don’t think it would be the same. I’m sure it would be amazing, a big chessington/ Alton towers!
A disney world wouldn't look unrealistic at all if France can get one then why can't we and besides we seem to be getting all of the American fast food chains so it's possible. if we can get American fast food restaurants then we can get a disneyland it's just only a matter of time and when also we could be getting a return of saga world of some form too
I A need this rlly I do I searched this out bc I'm English and my family can't currently afford to go abroad I haven't gone abroad but I rlllllyyyyy can't wait I need to go here!
Omg hell nooooooo THIS IS IN KENTTTTTT THIS IS RLLY CLOSE TO MEEEEEEE AHHHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE RIDESSSSSSSSSSSSS EEEEEEEK PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN PL SPLS Never mind it 4 hours and 49minutes far from wheres I live 😭 * ONA TRAINNNNN*
This makes merlin parks sound a lot more appealing! No 2 hour queues, everyone will be at this park!
That's a very good point if there wasn't a healthy distance between them all

Done all Merlin parks in the UK and a handfull in the USA
Now as parks go Alton isn't beating universal studios, island of adventures, sea world and Bush gardens at a stretch
But for frills if I was to forget three coasters from the Florida section of the US then they have nothing that touches treasures like nemesis Rita ect
And even then they don't win on outright frills but an enjoyable ride more like the bigger rides at Chessington that are a bit to family safe for my liking almost as if they wanted the adult rides to be friendly to children which for me spoils Chessington for me I can't settle without a clear park status of a family park or thrill park but the uncomfortable mix never felt right for some unknown reason
Alton just isn't big enough overall and with its hight restrictions it's truly amazing it does as well as it does
But for me Merlin running universal studios Florida would make Merlin unstoppable they have next to no limits to work with Vs Alton's restriction of the tree line for their max hight

@@attractionsbeyond so right
Let's hope they submit their new plans this year, and hope it comes to be
Do you think they are open to Universial coming in? The theme of the concept art does seem like it has Harry Potter and Jurassic Park themeing
I wish! Imagine having a Universal park in the UK 😱 It's a possibility, as you said the themes are all set up for a Universal park, so maybe it could happen! I'd love to see it!
It will be amazing. I hope they build this. Looking forward to 2025
Now that we have universal great britain, it's not that big of a deal that it's not happening
at 5:17 Can I just say that I think Lego Land is quite good at branding.
Agreed! Lego Land have great theming 🙂
I went there ages ago for my son's birthday and he loved it.
I like the concept art
We have simply been lead on and I’m not happy my heart is broken
So gutted 😓 maybe we'll see it open at some point, but it's definitely looking less likely now 😭
Ikr we need it I'm 12 Nd haven't been abroad, which u obviously know what that means 😭

Gonna make out like it Disneyland and then broke my heart within the first 20 seconds
Hahaha sorry 🤣 will still be just as good as Disneyland though... if it ever gets built that is!
When I heard him say Thurrock I was in disappointment
Also a theme park near tilbury dock would be good!
