20th Century Fox and dinosaurs compete for Zoo Miami theme park proposals

I read the title of this and the first thing I pictured were Fox executives in a cage match with dinosaurs. Go dinosaurs! :-)

"with rides and attractions based on the movie studio's films, such as Ice Age and Rio."

Ice Age I understand; that was a very successful series. But Rio?? Maybe before building a theme park based around their movies, they should concentrate on making some memorable movies.

Fox was the original distributor for Star Wars, so that could be some great rides and themes.

Fox was only the distributor, Disney owns the rights, so that will never, ever happen.

Rio was, according to many I know, very popular and a great movie. I passed. But Fox does have a lot of properties to make a few decent attractions from.

Titanic, the ride, anyone?

You can have Titanic The Ride. I'm waiting for Valley Of The Dolls The Ride.

OK, I should probably clarify before I dig myself into too big of a hole.

Here is a list of 20th Century Fox's movies for each decade. There are obviously some excellent movies in that list. Recently, there have been a lot of duds. Many of the studios are putting out some incredibly dumb movies in recent years.

And yes, a flume ride themed to Titanic would be amazing.

Wasn't Shoot the Rapids the first Titanic-themed ride?

"Prometheus, are you seeing this?"

That would be a great themed ride.

Porky's Peep Show would bring some sorely missing quality entertainment to the Theme Park Industry. I just hope they serve beer on picnic days!

Mr. Popper's Penguins. (in Smell-o-Vision)

Isn't it time for a good scratch-n-sniff ride?

I thought tighty-whitey twister took care of the scratch 'n' sniff attraction.

Nah, that was Poseidon-themed.

Popcorn scented joke in 3... 2... 1...

If someone had wanted to make a popcorn scent joke, he or she would have already done it.

Somebody REALLY doesn't get it.
