8!!General ride ideas:
9* A dark ride themed around ''Film/{{Krampus}}''. It received a [[Theater/HalloweenHorrorNights haunted house]] in 2016, but it could easily work as a ride.
10* A replacement for the ''Film/{{Jaws}}'' ride (in style, not location) themed around ''Film/{{Tremors}}''.
11** Alternatively, it’ll be brought back for Epic Universe and plopped right in the Universal Monsters land as Film/{{Creature from the Black Lagoon}}: The Ride
12* Something themed around the Film/MonsterVerse (unlikely due to Ride/SkullIslandReignOfKong being themed around Peter Jackson's 2005 film).
13* A ''Franchise/DragonBall'' ride. Perhaps as a re-theme of the now-dated Marvel Super Hero Island based on the franchise, if not Anime in general. I could see Dragon Ball being used for the Hulk coaster in particular.
14* A revival of ''Back to the Future: The Ride''. With the Universal's contract for ''The Simpsons'' set to end around 2028, ''The Simpsons' Ride'''s days are numbered. That said, once the contract ends, if Universal chooses not to renew it, then the building will revert to its original ''Institute of Future Technology'' theme.
15** The land of Springfield that was built around the ride will also be re-themed to that of Hill Valley of the future. Attractions in the land will include:
16*** The Cafe 80's, where guests can purchase a Pepsi Perfect along with any other future-inspired food and beverage items. The Cafe will also include a video arcade where guests can not only try their hand at "Wild Gunman", but also a myriad of other classic games from the 80's.
17*** The Blast from the Past store, where guests can buy ''Back to the Future''-themed merchandise, including replicas of the Grays Sports Almanac as well as the outfits worn by Doc and Marty in the different time periods they visited.
18*** The Hill Valley Courthouse, complete with its famous clock tower.
19* A ''Franchise/SpongeBobSquarePants'' dark ride. Surprising that the franchise has never had one, only flat rides, 4-D movies, and the occasional coaster.
20* A ''WesternAnimation/{{Trolls}}'' themed sing-along show, much like the ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'' sing-along show at [[Ride/WaltDisneyWorld Disney's Hollywood Studios]]. It's only a logical fit, as Trolls is a popular music-based animated franchise that's popular with young girls. The young girl market seems to be one that Universal's never really branched into before [[note]]No pun intended[[/note]], and it could easily be just as popular with them as the [[Franchise/DisneyPrincess princesses]] a few miles south. There's also the benefit of Universal owning Creator/DreamworksAnimation, meaning they won't have to pay any licensing fees to use the characters. A possible location could be in the [[Series/BarneyAndFriends A Day in the Park with Barney]] theater, as that franchise has long since faded into irrelevancy with it's target audience.
21** Barney has been confirmed as closed forever on [[https://twitter.com/UniversalORL/status/1357038058630246401?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw February 3rd, 2021]]. With Universal confirming that their ''Epic Universe'' theme park is continuing construction, the idea of ''Ride/SuperNintendoWorld'' going into the space Kid Zone takes up is no longer valid. So perhaps the possibility of a Trolls attraction might not take much longer.
22** Partially confirmed. The ''Dreamworks Destination'' ultimately replaced ''A Day in the Park'' and indeed features the Trolls characters among other Creator/DreamworksAnimation franchises, but is a meet and greet as opposed to a sing-along show a la Frozen or Barney.
23** Come 2022, and its been announced that the majority of Woody Woodpecker's Kidzone will be closing permanently in the new year. Rumors are spreading that it will receive a Dreamworks-themed replacement, with the high possibility that some type of Trolls attraction is coming in the future.
24* A ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba'' dark ride, either a 3D experience similar to The Amazing Adventures of Spider Man, or an indoor coaster akin to Gringotts. Seeing how it has a temporary VR experience in the Japanese park and also has the highest grossing movie in Japan, why not have an actual ride there as well as the American resorts [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff seeing how big the franchise is in the States?]]
25** This, but not only have it replace The Simpsons Ride when the time is due, but also turn the entirety of Springfield into an area based on Tokyo, just like how there are sections based upon London, New York, and San Francisco, with the other attractions being based on media made or based in Japan. The Hello Kitty store and meet n’ greet could move there.
26* A Bikini Bottom land that’ll replace Springfield once Universal loses WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons rights to Disney. Think about how much could be swapped one-for-one (Krusty Burger for The Krusty Krab, Krustyland for Glove World, Moe’s Tavern for The Salty Spitoon, etc.)
27* If The Simpsons Ride does end up being replaced, then why not retheme it to another highly popular adult cartoon series: ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty''?
