Go back to Coke Corner

Go back to Coke Corner
The Blast Zone is essentially a relocated and rethemed Fievel's Playground from the T2:3D and Coke Soak area.  I think this is such a waste of space.  I know Coca-Cola is being stubborn wanting to keep a presence inside the park, but they could sponsor some other attraction.  And there's nothing else USH could do to put over Coke Soak because it's right over Frankenstein Parking.  So the play area might as well return over Coke Soak, and still provide a nice view of The Valley.  Then USH could construct a new attraction over the Blast Zone.  Or a new attraction structure that covers 1/2 the Gibson Amiphtheater and all of Blast Zone.

BTW, The Vision Plan looks to have the Gibson return for theme park use.  The other half of the Gibson could be for another attraction building, with the grassy area used for queue.  Demolish the useless Shrek "extended" queue.  Take out Shrek4D and its queue, and make a new suspended dark ride.  Originally I thought of a dark ride version of riding in Jimmy Neutron's rocket into the world of Nickelodeon or a Spongebob Squarepants boat driving dark ride.

EDIT: I just realized something about T2:3D's building. The shop is also supposedly connected to a break room. And the Cyber Grill is never in use and they just recently took out a bunch of metal structures from it. So what if they transformed the Grill into a shop. Giving a little more room to the play area...

The area of the Blast Zone is almost the perfect size for a aimulation ride. (coughjimmyneutron'snicktoonblastcough)

I agree with you on that point. The Coke Soak seems like a cheap alternative when compared to the new Soak Zone. Take it out, and put something new in that's small. I know everyone hates carbon copies, but a simulator like the Jimmy Neutron attraction in Florida could be small enough to fit.

That's the main problem when they first constructed Terminator 2:3D. There's a solution though, just reinforce it.

RE: Go back to Coke Corner
I enjoyed the AquaZone, but Coke Soak makes USH money!  Coke Soak, what a terrible name.

I was glad the park had an extension when Blast Zone came in.  I do agree with the Shrek queue...they just don't get lines like that anymore.

Amphitheater removal would create major ride possibilities.  But Universal's budget would have to increase to operate the attraction.  With $61 admission, that won't happen.

God, I remember the days of $34 admission!!!  Nearly half of the price today!

Remember when gas prices had an average price of a buck fifty? Those where the days....
