Soundstage 44 Possible Demo...
Universal filed permits yesterday for demolition of Soundstage 44... If you don't know where SS44 is, that is the building which houses Hercules/Zena... Monster Cafe is attached to it... The building is the next block over from Shrek 4D...
Site test balloons were recently floating from the building... And walls have now gone up, reaching out to Delancey Street (where Mummy is)...
The permit states the project (demo and construction) has to be complete by June 7, 2014...
Interesting and exciting times are ahead for Universal..

BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Interesting. I wonder if this is more Potter stuff.
I was never impressed with the Monster Cafe food, but the theme was cool. Espeically the electric chair.

Not Potter... The Transformers building would fit into the area where Soundstage 44 is...

Some insiders are saying this won't be Transfomers, something original but not really an attraction... Guess we wait until Universal tells us...

The birdies are out... Current rumor: SS44 is to become a permanent, year round haunted house style attraction...

That would be so cool and at the same time promote their halloween party (in a way).

Well, SS44 is nearly down, despite all the rain from Debby this weekend...
And don't hold onto those "rumors" about a year long haunt... Universal Creative may have put out a ruse last week... What ever that means, well, who knows???

I don't think we're transforming. I think we may be heading to Africa. Or Central Park.

Madagascar??? no... Not in SS44... IOA's family ride for 2014 maybe... KidZone addition in 2015, possibly... But SS44?? nah... It is either Transformers or Kong with the Transformers ride system....
EDIT: IOA family ride may be in Jurassic Park section of the park...

It's great to see a lot of additions in the works. My kids LOVE Universal and I can see more trips in the future if Universal keeps adding on themes and thrills.

It sounds like they have alot going on.
I have to say I still miss the King Kong ride.
Jurassic Park is staying... IOA is rumored to be getting a family style attraction for 2014... Some say the family ride will be put into Jurassic Park... Others have suggested Madagascar be put into Toon Lagoon or replace the rest of LC...
I believe Monsters Cafe is in the New York section but I could be wrong... Mummy is for sure in the New York section... I would expect Monsters Cafe to change if SS44 winds up Transformers... Where else are they going to sell the Energon drink???
Some people have thought that maybe SS44 would become Kong, since some connected people have hinted of Kong's return... The ride system would still be Transformers from USH, just a Kong overlay...
I think Madagascar belongs in KidZone... KidZone is scheduled to get a refurb wen Potter 2.0 opens, probably 2015...

Thanks for the explanation! I love that they update things, but at the same time some of these attractions are old favs of mine from our first visits back in the early 90's. I miss King Kong, Ghostbusters & now Jaws!

Bad thing with the original Kong was it was a maintenance nightmare... but can you imagine a new Kong with the Transformers ride system??? In 3D??? That would be so much better than the original Kong ride...
A permit was filed and appears to be needing more information, but the permit was for Maintenance pit drains and ride lift pit drains... Sounds like a ride system with an elevator... TF has an elevator...

Keep the information coming.

Could they finally be getting rid of Pteranodon Flyers? I can't believe they still have that ride. Then again, I don't think anything mentioned fits the Jurassic Park section of IOA.

That ride is such a mystery to me. I've never come across an attraction that an adult CAN go on as long as they have a child with them. I mean I get it when adults are too big for certain rides. But obviously adults can go on this ride. I'd actually love to ride it, but can't unless I kidnap someone's little one.

Your guess is as good as mine on that one... I get it, it is a kiddie ride... But, I don't know, just seems, like Mel said, the ride is a mystery... If memory serves, I don't think the Flyers will be affected though... I'll try to find the rumored information about where the family thrill ride would go... Just give me some time...

Ok, Ischyros and anyone else interested... The rumor was/is that IOA is going to receive a family thrill ride in 2014 and be located in Jurassic Park... The area of my understanding is where Thunder Falls Terrace is...
If you look on Google Maps, behind Thunder Falls Terrace is a huge plot of expansion land... It may look like a staging area, but it is in fact expansion land... The ride would go into there... IF this is the route they go... I haven't heard it was green lit yet, but many projects are coming in the next few years... In fact, Cabana Bay Beach, as I think I said once before, is due to have a 50's surf theme water park built close by... and may have even been green lit too, just not announced yet...
I think a new thread is in order, detailing all the possible expansion coming to Universal over the next few years... Long live Comcast!!!
