Could we get a Middle Earth theme park in the future?

Rumors have begun circulating about the possibility that there could be a Middle Earth (The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings) theme park in the works. If these rumors are true, it would be awesome!

It is being reported that Universal has been in talks with the Tolkien Estate about creating the park. It is also being reported that representatives from the Tolkien Estate have been in contact with JK Rowling to discuss her experience with Universal and opening The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Florida.

With the success of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter it is not a surprise that parks are looking to capitalize on other large fandoms. I know that I would certainly travel down to Florida to have fun in a Middle Earth theme park. Would you be interested? What kinds of attractions do you think they would create for the park?

A very big thank you to Mary M. for the heads up on such a great article topic!
