The show will need to fit the lands storyline, I don’t know the story of the Beijing show directly but as long as it tie into the land and doesn’t feel like it should be in USF or IOA then I’m fine with that.

Funnily enough, this is the only thing that would give me concern for EU.

I would think that Universal will make heavy use of well placed berms and heavy plantings in this park although Nintendo and Potter won't have much in the way of plantings.....Monsters and HTTYD should have some heavily planted areas.
If we're talking expansion, then I'm thinking that rumored LOTR area comes first. The companies involved would try to get it up ASAP. If LOTR is off the table, then I can see Zelda going in between Nintendo and Monsters.

I agree on putting Pokemon in IOA and USF - those parks are going to need a big draw after EU opens.

Pokemon takes over Springfield or the space between MIB and Springfield, Zelda takes over LC.

More so behind both, there’s a TON of expansion space. Think of where the Coke store is as the land entrance essentially.

That'd be interesting - I wonder if they'd take any of that space for future expansion for KidZone.

God I hope we get the "chase sequence" on the ride

Normally I'd be disappointed with ANOTHER scoop vehicle ride system.....but this system is so dynamic and with a bit of plussing....should work very well in the Potterverse. On a side note....the scoop vehicle is the reason I love Transformers....that vehicle is so seamlessly programed with the screens and effects.....it's one of the most underrated rides IMO.
Transformers really nailed the feeling of driving FORWARD that we never get on Spider-Man. If you have ever get the chance to watch the Transformers vehicles in the couple scenes where it is supposed to be driving forward, it is impressive.
It lunges forward to simulate acceleration, and then wiggles its way sideways across a few feet of track so it is always moving, before turning around to the next scene. Compare that to Spider-Man where we're always essentially gliding left or right along those few feet of track. The lunge and wiggles sell it!
I don't know how much ability they have to do this, but I hope they can change the actual look of the vehicle somewhat. That would really help distinguish it from the two other Scoop rides at Universal Orlando.
I'd probably like Transformers if Spider-Man didn't exist. But it does!

Unlike Transformers, you won’t look at these and go “this is the same as Spider-Man”.
The only thing I can think of for a ride vehicle in the Ministry are from the two court scenes (Goblet and Phoenix). Would have to modify the "benches". Sort of a hybrid between Forbidden Journey vehicle and the Scoop. Realizing the Elevator concept from Alicia's video. There will still need to be seats. Just have a hard time marrying an elevator with a scoop vehicle

I know its super early, but has there been any speculation on passholder previews of the park? Or any sort of "precedent" from other parks on how they previewed them?
