This is huge for the Phoenix area because we have no major theme parks and this is one of the most populated places in the country. We have an old small theme park that is literally falling apart and it's nice to see a huge project come here in our backyard.
While they separately make sense, combining a luxury resort and a Mattel theme park seems to clash. Is it just me? I just don't see how these go together, I certainly don't think of luxury when I think of Mattel. That being said I wish them success, Phoenix could certainly use more theme park entertainment.
That’s a good point. Personally I think that the idea is for the resort as a whole to appeal to adults and families alike. While some may only have interest in the music or events, others can go to the theme park.
The water usage of this park would be a concern for me, and really just in the whole greater Phoenix area in general. Hoping that it is successful though, and glad to see Chance Rides building the roller coasters. Everyone seems to enjoy Lightning Run at Kentucky Kingdom, but for whatever reason they haven't gotten the opportunity to further show what they can do
One other item... we see a big dip in attendance this summer. I wonder if people have the money and appetite to visit all these new parks. This park & the Frisco TX one are meant to be local so I expect that to be their saving grace. Good luck to all the developers!
Interesting fact... the developer of this project is named Epic Resort Destinations. That aside... this appeals to me. I would love to take my son here. I am a big fan of well done go karts... a laser tag inside of Castle Greyskull sounds fantastic. If I had a young daughter I could see her wanting to spend time in Barbie's dream house. This is kind like if Dave & Busters met Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts.
I read an article that said that the ROI on indoor parks are much higher due to longer seasons and better shopping districts so I wonder if that’s why Mattel is going that direction.
i can't say this appeals to me but good for arizona i guess? i just feel like mattel is perhaps going a little bit fast assuming that its cinematic universe will work with just one movie under their belt and now this skjfsdklfjsdl
American heartland is never going to be built. If it does it will almost certainly be nowhere near the original scope, and will likely close down soon after opening. It's just in too random of a location. The mattel park actually seems like it has the highest chance of success given that Phoenix is such a big and popular area these days. The water usage of the park is a concern though, considering that Phoenix is basically in the desert
I hope it flops I am still made at what they did to thomas STOP PROMOTING THAT AWFUL REBOOT MATTEL IT SUCKS also since you added reboot thomas in your park I HOPE IT FLOPS FOR THOMAS'S SAKE
This looks like fun, I’m a huge fan of Hot Wheels & my family & I have watched the Barbie movie, it was fun & maybe someday, I might see a Hot Wheels movie, it’ll be fun & exiting!🇺🇸🏎️🏁🛞😎👍🏻

I used to live in Phoenix and I say it's time to bulldoze Castle & Coasters!
More like huge with Mattel give them a chain for what they did to thomas
I think they’ll need to increase the Barbie representation. I feel like they could have a whole dedicated to the franchise.
Whole hotel *
For sure, especially after how wildly popular the movie was

At least the Thomas ride is cgi by the looks of it

Agreed!
I love the beaches and the concerts.....the rides will be fun too.

Interesting!
@@themainstreetnews Is Mattel a new amusement park?
@@kennypalermo9071 Yup!
I read an article that said that the ROI on indoor parks are much higher due to longer seasons and better shopping districts so I wonder if that’s why Mattel is going that direction.
i really love your interesting videos! thanks for that.
Thank you so much!
Really ready to go Mattel Adventure Park, Excited!!🤩🤩💖💖😊😊 .
American Heartland, Nah. 😴😴🙃🙃🙄🙄
Did not expect this to go vertical
I must visit!
So cool!
I'm excited
I knew abt it for a while now my friends mom’s friend is the owner I’m not kidding
Want a cookie bro
@@nardocobainno need to be an @$$
It sounds interesting
It’s not as big as others, but it seems to have a lot of fun activities that will give visitors a great time!
We need a VeggieTales theme park
If theirs monster high then me going
Oh my god!!!
From you username, you should be pretty excited haha
Lol@@themainstreetnews
Why didn't they build a real amusement park like Great Adventure
Come experience a cool 75 degrees inside and seconds later a 110F hairdryer blasting you in your face..
i can't say this appeals to me but good for arizona i guess? i just feel like mattel is perhaps going a little bit fast assuming that its cinematic universe will work with just one movie under their belt and now this skjfsdklfjsdl
I clicked here cuz of Avenged Sevenfold 😂😆
This looks like the least interisting park coming to the usa in the next 5 years
It does have very strong competition with Epic Universe, Universal Frisco and American Heartland…
@@themainstreetnews yea i think this will be the weakest of the 4

Oh Disney you're in trouble now:(

No interest at all! I’m sure some will, tho.
BARBIE is going to melt if these climate change continue.
