Dec. 19, 2013— -- Twentieth Century Fox has announced the official name of its new theme park, set to open in Malaysia in 2016.

It will be called Twentieth Century Fox World.

It may not be the most clever or catchy name, but hey, did you ever think a land named after Walt Disney would roll off the tongue the way it does almost 60 years after opening?

Twentieth Century Fox World has unveiled the park's logo:

Some rides will be based on Twentieth Century Fox blockbusters such as "Ice Age," "Rio," "Alien vs. Predator," "Planet of the Apes" and "Night at the Museum."
