Hello Kitty character at Universal. Opinions?

[schumigirl]

Yes, I like the nods to classic Universal too.........

Would love to see more of it.......Horror Make up building has some wonderful old pics and relics of the classics.....would be happy to see more of that.......and really there should be some Angela Lansbury in there somewhere.........just because.........can you guess I'm a fan!!

Hello Kitty........no. But it'll be a money maker.......

Love classic Universal and I'm still gutted I never saw the Psycho house......yes, I have pics but would loved to have seen it for real.

Hope they don't do a Potter themed hotel, but I can imagine they could incorporate rooms done in Potter style.....the way they have JP and minion themed rooms......

While it sounds neat, so far JK Rowling has shut down all ideas of a HP themed hotel...personally, I'm just hoping for another expansion...Ministry Of Magic would be neat to see.

I thought Universal said they never had any intention of doing a Potter themed hotel anyway..........although Potter is popular not sure how viable a whole hotel would be.

Poseidons Building would be an ideal enhancement to Potter. Huge building with enormous potential.

Down with Poseidon! I'm biased...I greatly disliked that show/walk-through! Any show where they move you to multiple rooms is a pain, especially when you are short and/or have kids.
We got funneled into the back row, and I didn't enjoy the show at all, as I was holding my 10 y.o. DS up the entire time so he could see.

Sorry I got

Murder She Wrote was one of the great oldies at the studios.
we really enjoyed the way it was set up and moving from one room to another for the show.

some things that have been replaced over the years have tore at my heart,
this was one of them when they axed it

I think the powers that be at Universal are going to continue to grow Universal beyond anything I could have imagined years ago. I think who ever they have in charge of these new ideas is a genius.

As much as I loved the old park standbys they have to grow in order to stay relevant. The Harry Potter Parks have put Universal back on the map and I think they will continue to grow that brand in addition to other attractions and more resorts.

Hello Kitty and other store possibilities will continue to follow to keep things fresh.

Our old Universal is changing, but I will keep coming back to watch it grow. It's the best park in the world even though others have found our secret.

Kivara tell them to put you up front next time. Let them know you have been to Poseidon and you want to see up close what the fuss is about. LOL I always get put next to or in back of the guy who did not use deorderant or had burritos for lunch

 

[Kivara]

Good tip Robo! Thankfully nobody smelled when I was there, but I did get stuck behind a guy that was at least 6'2"

I do love that the parks are growing and changing; and I love that a lot of the old rides are honored in some hidden way or retooled (Back to the Future, Dragons, etc)

I think they will do that with Poseidon.........it's a mausoleum of a building........would fit Chamber of Secrets to a tee.........only a matter of time. imho of course.........

Not a fan of Poseidon so wouldn't miss it.......did like the final bit and the vortex of water........

PCtang nice pics of Hello Kitty store. We enjoyed walking through on or visit In May. I think Universal did a nice job with the store.
