Default Lost Theme Park

Now that Universal has announced a Harry Potter theme park, Disney will need to match with something. Anybody think a Lost theme park is possible? ABC and Disney are already tied at the corporate level, so there's no negotiating to be done there. The possibilities seem enormous: you could have a ride for each major character, plus other rides themed after Smokey (if we ever find out what Smokey is!), the sub, the original plane crash, Jacob's shack, the hatches, Black Rock. Food could include Hurley's Diner (maybe even the original Chicken Shack)... that's all I can think of off the top of my head. In place of the Tree of Life at Animal Kingdom there could be a big statue with four toes!

The shows set up lends itself to Disney's love of breaking down its parks into "lands": Losties, Others Village, Tailies(?), the Beach, the Jungle, the Land of Pre-Crash Lives, etc.

As long as they skip the torture parts, it could be a fun family-oriented ride place. You know the polar bear has to appear somewhere.

I know it's a long shot, but it seems like a great way for Disney to make a buck, and for fans to enjoy the Lost experience all over again.

What do y'all think? Good idea, or blasphemy?

Where do I buy my ticket?! And can I get a side of Dharma Ranch Dressing for my Chicken Shack fries?

Steer clear of the animatronic Tricia Tanaka. I hear she gets hit with a meteorite!

I mean, I'd visit a LOST theme park many times. But the majority of the general public probably would not..And it would be a flop.
