I think you’re right.   

My suspicion is that the law suit will force United to pay then things will go on like always. This isn’t the first time they’ve stopped paying bills just to see how far they could push it—I’ve seen that before (granted, at least then the pandemic could be blamed)

The biggest question I have is if United Parks loses the case will the Sesame Workshop pull their licensing agreement, thus forcing UPR to rebrand their Sesame attractions? As we've discussed on here, there aren't a ton of family area IPs out there. Six Flags: Looney Tunes, DC, and Peanuts Disney: Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, Fox (20th Century Studios and such), etc. Also uses Bluey for some experiences Universal:  Dr. Seuss, Marvel (in IOA), Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Nintendo, Illumination (Minions), How to Train Your Dragon, Dreamworks (the various Shrek properties), Spongebob (at the upcoming Universal Kids Resort) etc. Herschend prefers to make custom family areas, though may still have some rights to use Cartoon Network properties. United Parks and Resorts: Sesame Workshop Other potential IPs that could be used: Thomas the Tank Engine The Wiggles Nickelodeon properties (currently in use at Nickelodeon Universe and the American Dream Mall) Hanna-Barbera (I think they might be licensed under Paramount at this point) Cartoon Network (also under Paramount once they buy Warner Bros. Discovery) Peppa Pig (used in the Peppa Pig Theme Park)   In a timeline where Sesame Workshop is going to look for a new park chain to partner with, I wouldn't entirely mind seeing Six Flags ditch Looney Tunes and bring in Sesame Street. That would complicate things a little in terms of IP spread, but I think the way they use LT is a little tacky compared to how Peanuts is used. The DC properties are a good thematic bridge into bigger rides for the older kids though. 

I think you could do quite a bite with the existing facade to make it work. The castle dental molding should go, as well as the turret style features (which they seem to be addressing now). A lot of the existing colors in the art design (from what we’ve seen) could be incorporated into what’s there. Mocked up this concept over the last few days to try and visualize what it could be.      Not sure how it would work, but I’d really love to see some kind of marquee added to the front inspired by the original:      Excited to see what they do. 

I know I’m a little late to this, but am I the only one that think these “trapezoid things” have been removed? It really looks like it but I can’t tell if it’s the camera blur or just my eyes deceiving me
