    This show is STILL wildly popular-Yesterday I was at a PACKED 3pm showing.

    An updated script and a few tweaks to modernize it would be kewl and welcome. Maybe even UP the gore factor. But DO NOT REMOVE IT! Universal is so lacking for ANY shows in “Islands” or “Studio’s” so removing this one makes ZERO sense.

    ADDING a “5-Nights” attraction is fine. Anything to add to the number of “Studio’s” attractions is EXTREMELY welcome! And they have the room: what with all the area used up for a NEVER used, former “Fear Factor” stadium.

    Not to mention the room that would be gained by getting rid of the TERRIBLE “F&F” ride.

    I am very much DONE with ‘replacement attractions’ at theme parks ALA what Disney has been doing since 2019 to beloved rides adnauseum. You want to bring in an attraction ?-MAKE IT A NEW ONE and lets continue to have the existing ones! Not to mention that it adds to capacity-which is ALWAYS A GOOD THING!

    Oh and while we are on the subject-Hey Comcast: There are HUGE area’s of Islands that REALLY NEED some “E” ticket attractions in the TRULY DEAD parts of that park.

    Namely almost the entirety of the Lost Kingdom area. Add to that the theater that is next to Rip Saw Falls could host a new show, or get bull dozed to make way for another E-ticket attraction.

    Reason being, of course. IS CAPACITY!! Last night Velocicoaster was a 2 hour wait, while Hagrids was a leg burning 165 minute wait!! Express for that ride was 80 minutes!! Why these HUGE lines at these rides? Nothing else in the park comes close!

    Epic is SOOOOO superior to the other two parks, that although I welcome the to be completed May2026 new expansion at Epic, I think that the OTHER two parks, are in need of ADDITIONAL, not replacement, attractions to get them “up to snuff” with EPIC…

    In doing so, PLUS all the other parks world wide, Comcast will deliver the well deserved “Coup-de-grace” to theme park domination over Disney!

    I would definitely miss Horror Make up Show, I’m not a fan of thrill ride roller coasters. Twister, Jaws, Earthquake, all of my show favorites have disappeared, I likes the original park much better…..
