'Lord of the Rings' May Join Harry Potter at Universal Studios

August 23, 2010 at 9:02 AM | by | Comments (0)

Universal Studios Orlando must be making a lot of cash with all that new Harry Potter stuff. They’ve reported a boost in attendance, an increase in ticket prices, and they’re already thinking about sending the wizarding world elsewhere around the globe. Now there’s news that another fantasy world could be joining Harry at the park.

The rumors floating around say that park officials are considering adding the creatures of Middle-earth with a "Lord of the Rings"-themed Island of Adventure. There hasn't been any official announcement just yet, but online surveys have been asking guests how they field about JRR Tolkien’s world filled with wizards and warlocks.

Don’t hold off on visiting the theme park in anticipation of Frodo and friends, as this rumor has been kicking around for several years. However, it seems that Universal is a little more interested in what visitors think of the fantasy series now more than ever. The online survey also asks questions about Avatar, Twilight, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, and Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy; however, the most detailed questions are all about Lord of the Rings.

Go here to tell Universal how you feel about the series, and we'll let you know when/if they reveal their pick for their next attraction.
