Jog Posted February 14, 2005 Author Share Posted February 14, 2005 Definitely not, Universal would only do the best job in incorperating LOTR into their theme parks, thats if they get the rights. The Van Helsing ride was dropped because the movie sucked, and the ideas leaked. A lot of people think it won't eventually happen. They think it's not universal's style and would clash with the attractions they have there already. If it did go ahead it is more likely it would be placed in Lost Continent, or LC would just be slightly re-themed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkElfUK Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 That'd be cool and I don't think it'd cheapen it. Universal Studios, have made some top quality rides so far..(altho I haven't been yet )..but I'm sure it'd be more of an experience, than just a ride. I think it'd be pretty cool, if done right! Where did you hear this anyway Jog? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarah-4-eva Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 It may not fit in with Universal, may seem a bit random. And Universals rides aren't rides, they're adventures. E.g. making a simple tidal wave ride into a Jurassic Park River Adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveMerry Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 i like adventures. but the whole of lotr is an adventure, on so many different levels, that a theme park could not convey. but i shall post those another day, coz my head hurts.

fell beast Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I think they should make it a 'Falling Balrog' ride!! That would be cool! Or maybe a 3D 'Paths of the Dead' experience! hehe! oohh or how about an Oliphant ride! The possbilities are endless..but it might be very naff and tacky! Ah..hell, the likelyhood that I'll ever get to go is pretty minimal anyway!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
