Universal Studios Mediterranea could be a super interesting topic to talk about since Portaventura was the only time Universal have purchased an already constructed theme park and sold it years ago
they even planned to add a universal studios theme park next to it so portaventura would be the european islands of adventure. don't know why they sold it. i would have loved to have a universal resort in europe
I’m a Korean and this is really interesting to watch! I use to go lotte world and ever land every week with my dad and it makes me sad imagining those theme parks closing down because universal will obviously over shadow them . Korea is a very small country so having three major theme parks in such tiny space would be too crowded
If you compare it to Southern California I think that it is possible to have more theme parks than what you currently have, especially since we have like half the population you do and with several major parks, but of course business people would have to really analyze whether or not South Korea could actually support more theme parks. I'm not an expert or anything.
Lifting tide lifts all other boats. As long as the theme parks can differentiate themselves, they will be prosper. The more theme parks getting built in Florida, the more people go there.
@@skellingtonMCR Southern California is only a small portion of California which is only 1 of 50 states of the United States. Yes its true, that small part of the country is oversaturated with theme parks but you have the rest of America as a steady stream of foot traffic not to mention the amount of foreign tourists California gets. Southern California is also bigger in land area than the entire country of South Korea so all 3 parks would be quite near meaning the existence of Universal would pretty much suck dry both Everland and Lotte World (Their 2 Major theme parks). As for international appeal Korean theme parks also struggle as next door neighbor Japan has 3 of the world's best theme parks in Tokyo Disneyland, Tokyo DisneySea and Universal Osaka. Disney and Universal also made moves in both Shanghai and Beijing so thats another country you need to compete with.
I'm always grateful when you slow down and really show the concept art. Thank you. So much detail, it's nice to actually look it over and see the details without pausing it.
You have produced one of the best documentary series on failed theme parks and working ones ! Amazing job ! I always know clinking on one of your videos will provide amazing stories and a treasure trove of facts about the theme park industry ! Thank you for all your hard work you do making and sharing these !
13:40 Me, I would buy off the golf course next to Universal Studios Lot, turn that into the new studio lot property, and convert the existing 450 acre lot into expansion for the park and a second gate for Hollywood.
Hopefully, the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort would be more successful and well-beloved with lots of room for resort expansion, more resort hotels, more fully-realized rides and attractions, a fully-realized second gate theme park with more rides and attractions, an RDE district similar to DisneyTown at the Shanghai Disney Resort, and other cool stuff!
Hong Kong Disneyland lost a lot of land for expansion/2nd gate park to the Hong Kong government for the lack of not building anything in the land last year.
I would like to see a universal resort in the UK since it would give people who live in the UK who may not be able to go to Orlando an opportunity to experience a universal park. It would also probrobly gain interest from BBC, ITV and possibly channel 4 and it would finally give the UK a major theme park that wasn't owned by merlin.
@@allthingsentertainment6455 This will likely not age well because of Russia being sanctioned off from the rest world, as well as the political situation in Russia.
I live in Georgia on a small 5 acres.connected to 165 acres connected to another 200...all that's on this is about 5 homes..its 10 miles from a freeway...it'd be a great place 40 min from Atlanta
I’d like to see a Universal Mediterranea resort with two massive new theme parks built from the ground up as well as a fully-realized Universal Studios Korea!
😭wpuld have loved going disneyland singapote if it existd!universal studios lookd like a deadland unmaintained well enough with no new rides or expansions compared to oher universal studios ard the world
@@gayan1395 ngl it actually feels more like a theme park than any other universal in the world, and ive been to all 4. it feels weird to say this but the videos online dont do it justice, somehow. The cast members are the difference maker to me. makes me feel a lot more welcome. Japan's felt really dead to me, like it wasnt a themepark but some museum exhibit. Hollywood's felt like they were still trying too hard to push the studio aspect when i visited. And Orlando's just felt very disconected to me. been over a decade since i been to either US ones though. Japan was 3 yrs ago. on the bright side, we're getting super nintendo land by 2025 so that's a plus. and madagascar is finally going away. for minions. . . .
@@lolplzlolplz1 haha yup thats right!might just be me getting abit sick of it since thats the only theme park avail in sg 😭.Its pretty small in size too but the rides there are legendary and cast are pretty funny pre covid!Mummy ride and transformers and battle star galactic
I think a Universal theme Park in Southern Mexico near Cancun, the Mayan Ruins and the brand new train system that's going to connect all the major tourist areas would be perfect. In fact a theme park named Amikoo is already being planned for the area. More competition from Universal would be Awesome.
What they really need to build is a new location in the US for both Universal & Disney. Somewhere maybe towards the center of the country. If Disney & Universal can make a theme park work in climates like Tokyo, Shanghai, and were considering building in S. Korea with their brutal winters, then there's tons of places they can build another location right in the US. With the excessive overcrowding situation at both Disney & Universal in both Orlando and Anaheim/Hollywood. There is more than sufficient interest and crowd to build a location somewhere in between the two extreme US locations. They could focus on building some of the attractions built at other locations around the world not presently in the US parks which would insure success & interest from all over the US, in addition to their must have signature attractions.
I agree, maybe build it on the grounds where the still operating Mexico City airport is when the new airport opens. At 770 hectares it has the perfect size and location for a theme park in my opinion.
i don't have anything constructive to say, i just happened to see this video the minute it posted and i know it appeases the algorithm for you to get engagement quickly. or as people used to say, FIRST!
Always with the enthusiasm of a 7 year old kid. These projects reach the burst bubble stage when it's time to secure funding. Same thing happened in Dubai. There is always a "saturation point" Korea is simply the "wrong spot" for such a huge investment.
If I were one of the contractors to build a Universal Studios park, it would be Chicago because that's where I was born. Universal parks are outnumbering Disneylands! Seriously!
None of the rumored parks were ever built and I am so mad!! We even had talks about Disney.....ugh...our neighboring countries have both and we have none :( Also Lotte World in Seoul is very limited or impossible for future expansions..Everland hasn’t build a new coaster since T express..Gyeongju world is the only park that seems to invest in their own park
I lived in Korea between 2017-2018, and I always felt that they deserved a big-name theme park like Universal or maybe even Disney (Lotte World Adventure had some interesting qualities, but kinda average as a whole imo). I'm surprised to learn that a Universal park was planned, but I'm disappointed that nothing came of it. I personally believe that something like a Universal park could've possibly angered North Korea somehow.
I would love to build a park in Hawaii. Of course Universal, since it has ties to pop culture and films here. I would have it focus on IPs that film in the islands, and others that are uniquely Universal.
It is SOUTH Korea, not Korea. Thousands didn't die to keep these countries separate for people to keep calling it Korea. It is SOUTH Korea. We don't call North and South Dakota - Dakota? North and South Carolina as Carolina. West Virginia and Virginia as Virginia. Kansas and Arkansas as Kansas? Really it is SOUTH Korea.
That’s why Koreans are successful but Chinese got addicted with Beijing Universal studios, Koreans are patriotic and America can’t bully them like how the Americans bully the Chinese. Other example how US rejected Chinese visa but Chinese still selling everything they own to go to study in US.
I though if in my country Canada or Australia would make a perfect Universal Resort there, but it had to be in a great master plan just to fit the country & adding the perfect attractions, rides, lands & as well how much land this resort could be like.
Universal Studios Mediterranea could be a super interesting topic to talk about since Portaventura was the only time Universal have purchased an already constructed theme park and sold it years ago
Hope they buy PortAventura so they would already have an amazing first gate to complement with a Universal Studios Park

@@deud. they sold it off because Universal was sold to NBC
Good idea! Let it be subject to rebranding!
England will FINALLY get one, and WE are getting Epic Universe. So with luck, this can still be reality in the future!

Disneyland Anaheim is a local park. It doesn't rely or get a large number of visitors outside the state.
If you said South Korea a small country then how about UAE with their bunch of Theme Parks?

Planet coaster's relaxing background 🎶🎶🎶
i was about to comment that lol, I had planet coaster running on the back and I thought that was it , but guess not hahahah
The Planet Coaster soundtrack works a little too well for your videos... 😂
ikrrrr
i really want a universal park in europe! with better transport links compared to what portaventura has though!
small request, 👉 could you guys do a review on Lotte World? One thing you guys do really well is excite us about these different places.

If I could build a universal park ent where in the word I would put it in some where near Sydney nsw Australia
@@躺平专家 Why do you say that??
You have to do an episode on the Marvel Mania restaurant. I vaguely remember it!
It's too bad that USK could not happen; however, Legoland Resort Korea will be opening next year~!
do you think with korea being trendy(at least with college students at my uni), theme park companies will try to open a park there after the pandemic?
Yes but not Universal they just opened in Beijing
@FIREatip universal originally want to start at korea first but china stole it
Can you make a video on theme park restaurants? I would love to know more about marvel mania

Thank you for this! I lived in Korea on and off during that time and was like ‘COME ON GUYS! MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!’
Lotte World is great
Universal Studios Mexico City would be fantastic. We already have a succeful Six Flags park and it needs to have a fair competition
I agree, maybe build it on the grounds where the still operating Mexico City airport is when the new airport opens. At 770 hectares it has the perfect size and location for a theme park in my opinion.
A universal studios pack was planned for London as back as 1988 and approved by the government but never built

But If you like balder it will be fine :)
well, your neighbors are far more populated and bigger gdp...
Australia also have none.
Then Legoland in Chuncheon
New theme parks?
Disney? Mgm? Universal studio?
When and where?

I would build an Universal theme park in the outer area of France/Europe
Universal Studios South East Queensland would be nice
We need a Video about the Warner brothers Movie World Germany !!! Pleaseeee
My dream Universal park would be in Nebraska.
Let's build them in every state 😂.
South America would be great for a theme park. There's no competition and save for Brazil they all speak the same language
I'm still waiting for Universal to buy PortAventura back...
Perth! 😜
I would build an universal studios park at Mexican
Too close to Universal Studio in California. I would pick Brazil instead.

Universal Studios is already located in China and Japan in East Asia, so it would be better to build it in Southeast Asia rather than in Korea.
