"I am starting it, and I partnered with Storyland to help us build it, because guess what? I'm a comedian that doesn't know how to build a theme park but I do know I want a place where families and friends can come to and ride all the rides.""

"Nate and Nateland are committed to good, clean, family-friendly entertainment," Felix Verdigets, CEO of Nateland Entertainment, said in a statement on Storyland Studios' website."
