Perhaps the only thing theme park fans like more than attraction posters are discussing unbuilt attractions. We're fascinated by what's left in the vaults at Disney. But lately, fans have been taking a look at concepts for Universal parks that never made it off the drawing boards. Here, I think, is one of the best: Jurassic Park Helicopter Tours at Islands of Adventure.
The concept art doesn't give anything away, but flying over the world famous refuge of dinos both large and small (mostly BIG!) would have been a thrill all its own... until something goes terribly wrong, as it always does.
Universal Creative has become a world class organization on par with Walt Disney Imagineering. Much to the delight of fans, each company trying to one up the other. (Is that an unintentional Mario / Super Nintendo World reference?) Will Epic Universe top whatever Disney is planning next? Probably! There's on a hot streak!
