Knott's News: Doesn't seem like it's gonna happen. It does however seem like Paramount Global is on the market, and I wouldn't be surprised if Comcast bought them to bolster Peacock and integrate some of that valuable IP into the Universal Parks. I think Star Trek, Ninja Turtles and SpongeBob have stood the test of time and are safe bets for park integration (SpongeBob and Transformers are already in Universal Studios). 

Once again, all speculation. Would've been cool to see the three IP I mentioned in Cedar Fair parks like Kings Island (I'm a huge Star Trek fan) but Warner still offers them plenty of IP to play with. Its just a question about wether Cedar Fair is serious about immersive entertainment and theming.
