The Islands of Adventure That Never Was

[Shane]

So while looking for a quote from Gary Goddard on walk-through attractions, I came across another series from ThemePark University about original concepts for Islands of Adventures that never materialized. Take a look below!

• Part 1 - The Batwing
• Part 2 - Ripsaw Falls
• Part 3 - Popeye
• Part 4 - Superman
• Part 5 - Spider-Man
• Part 6 - Looney Tunes
• Part 7 - Harry Potter

Very interesting read! It's neat to see how they were envisioning a Harry Potter land before the movies came out, which of course shaped everyone's concept of the Wizarding World and what it's "supposed" to look like.

That Harry Potter gift shop doesn’t look anything at all like Busch Gardens Williamsburg‘s Wizard Works.

[*]Part 3 - Popeye

A Popeye dinner show with a great deal of audience participation is the thing of nightmares!
