World Expo, which stretches around Universal Studios’s central lagoon from Diagon Alley to to The Simpsons Ride, somewhat clumsily incorporates several competing aesthetics. The World Expo name, as well as the theming of Men in Black (MIB) Alien Attack in the area’s center, is derived from the 1964 World’s Fair’s New York State Pavilion. The Fear Factor Live stadium, the area’s only other attraction, appears to be themed to the style known as ‘ugly warehouse.”
