    Can confirm as someone who experienced Shrek 4-D for the first time last month, the theater technology has DEFINITELY outlived it's lifespan. I was convinced at one point, those seats were going to throw my back out. But I will say the pre-show was very enjoyable and I loved all the references and jokes. Can't wait to see what's next and loved the video as always!

    Shrek definitely doesn’t have a problem with its relevance, as I’d say it’s one of the most well-known properties in Universal Studios Orlando. The problem is just that it’s so outdated and the space it has to work with is minimal. I hope whatever ride replaces it manages to do something creative without being too screen-heavy at the very least.

    I really hope Universal doesn’t take a step back and go back to a bland screen ride. If Universal wants to keep up this high they’re on, they can’t save the innovation only for Epic Universe. They need to bring their A-game for all their rides.

    I was at universal last month, was shocked at how packed this attraction still was (maybe it was the announcement of the closing) but, it a arguably the most popular ride in the park outside of Harry Potter. I watched the show one last time, and still had a good time on it.

Also it would awesome if they did the same battle scene like in avengers infinity war and endgame.

    I feel that going all in on Minions would be an... unwise maneuver.
    Consider the location: Shrek 4-D is _right_ at the front of the park. It's one of the first things you'll see as a typical guest going that way. As popular as the Minions are/were, I don't think making a swarm of Minions the absolute first thing you're going to see as you enter would be the right call. A good chunk of people, including myself (so I'll admit, I'm a touch biased here), really don't like them. Doing that, and making it front and center puts a lot more emphasis on them than I think would be warranted - especially since they'd really only be in just that area.
    Even if they wanted to go all-in on Minion/Illumination world, within the immediate area, they have Rip Ride Rockit, which is outside Illumination's target demographic, and the Plaza stage, which is best left un-themed, so it wouldn't be big enough to even do all that much.
    The killing blow to this idea of a mini-land there, in my eyes, is HHN. When people come in, they want fear. They want tension. Having a bunch of the things just there as you enter... isn't what they'd be looking for. If they put up any permanent Minion props, like what they have in the other parks, it just wouldn't work. They'd also be slapped with an issue they're already having with Simpsons and Kidzone - you really can't put a proper scare zone in such cartoony environments without taking some liberties, except it's at the most vital location: the entrance. We wouldn't be able to get something like this year's entry gate again if they did that.
    (Though, if it was more "coincidentally located attractions," rather than a full mini-land, they could maybe get away with it)
    Back to the actual replacement ideas,
    I don't expect anything big - if they put anything of significant note there, it's going to flood those walking paths even more than usual. It'll probably be something a bit more on the down-low, though the "what" is still quite uncertain. There's not a lot you could really do with the space. It's land-locked, so no expansion, and it's not that big. I genuinely don't know what they'll go with.

  • @dashkatae

    The problem with USO is that when you walk in, it doesn't immediately blow you away. There is the studio store immediately to your left which just looks like a big box and the today cafe to your right and that's it. Past the street is Hello Kitty store but it's stuck in the far right corner away from the eye and so most people miss it and instead continue to walk forward because the only thing drawing the crowds that way is the New York skyline. Once you pass the studio store to your left is the first real piece of eye candy, that's minions. To your right is Shrek 4-D but it doesn't look that exciting and the only reason you notice it isn't because of the signage or the billboard, but because of the cast members in their Shrek-inspired outfits. The entire entry for USO needs a massive redesign. I mean, look at the differences between the Universal Store inside the park compared to the one in Citywalk. The one in Citywalk stands out, feels alive and fresh, the one in Studios feels old and outdated. If they wanted to make the front better, they need to theme it to something and a mix of Illumination and Dreamwork properties would be awesome as it would be bright and alive. Even if all they did were just put up fake facades like they have at IoA, it would make it feel more than just the lifeless place that it is right now.

They wouldn't have to change anything too much so they could keep some of the elements people love in ET. It's not the first time Universal would base an attraction off a TV show. Whenever stranger things has been in the park before it's been popular. We can't deny that ET really needs some love and attention. I would love it if they fixed it all up and kept it as ET but I don't think that's likely to happen as much as it getting replaced.

ET or Spielberg has a contract with universal that they must have x amount of his rides. Also that was his baby and the last remaining OG attraction at Universal. I don't see it going anywhere. Although a stranger things ride would be cool I think it would really only work around d halloween. Who knows tho with Epic Universe having a monster land maybe we will see stranger things arrive at the new park. I'm hoping Shrek gets changed over to secret life of pets.

      No, they should not lay a finger on E.T. and I don't think retheming E.T. to a ride that is themed to older kids like 13+ is a good idea because you are taking away a kids attraction and are replacing it with something kids will be scared to ride, so that is not a good idea in my opinion.
      What universal should do, is what many people want them to do, refurbish the ride or animatronics. Also it is one of the last opening day attraction.

Trolls has so much potential and its sad all we have in Orlando is Poppy,Branch,And Guy they did try out a Tiny puppet on Guy but they removed the concept fast.

    I think that they should make a smaller version of secret life of pets, and reroute the entrance to Hollywood in that little area that you can see the extended queue through, and then the bottle neck will be less and they will have a amazing new ride.

      Bland, but the area is supposed to be a Studios-themed area that is very common for major film companies at Hollywood, which did captured the vibe of it during the early years of the Park. This was no different at Disney’s MGM/Hollywood Studios like the Animation Courtyard and the Mickey Avenue areas. Hell, the show buildings of Star Tours and Rock & Roller Coaster were technically soundstages from the outside.

They don't have a ton of space since getting rid of jaws to be able to do a one park horror nights without that theater. Otherwise they would have to do the building for Poseidon's adventure and take some real estate back on the old triceratops trail area, and the carnage warehouse... so it would be impossible to change the ride style.

    I think with the consistency of the building shrek was in always having a stage/ screen attraction- its very likely for them to ditch the 4-D seats and create a new stage experience (ik ik after Bourne this sounds very boring) But, if you think about Illuminations and how there is a lack of family- friendly attractions, I think maybe a Sing themed show of somekind could be very possible.

    I was thinking a shrek themed animatronic ride similar to Secret Life of Pets or they can just turn it into a kids ride there really is surprisingly little kids rides in that part of the park. Though honestly I feel Universal Studios should do more to seperate themselves from the other parks. What is the point to going to Universal Hollywood if most of the rides there are at Orlando. Allow Hollywood to have more unique rides to its park to encourage more visits to their California park. Secret Life of Pets is only at Hollywood right now and one of their foreign parks and it is a cool ride which could bring more guest to that park, why undermine that by putting it into the orlando park.
    These are the only rides at Hollywood that can't be found at Orlando: Kung Fu Panda (Shrek 4D of Hollywood), Secret Life of Pets, Jurassic World (updated Jurassic Park river adventure ride) and King Kong 360. other than that all they have is the tour and the Waterworld show.
