USF strikes me as the more “family” park for UOR. Given Minion, Dreamworks, and future Pokemon, I’m fine with this park not getting a coaster more intense than Mummy. This park can just offer more versatility I feel.
So is it expected the entrance stays the same here? Or is that moving if it’s F&F? I could seem the former Blue Man Group building being torn down and using that area for queue space and load station.
This is annoying, what is it? I hate “you won’t BELIEVE” what is happening then it’s a special cupcake. If there’s a rumor, share the rumor????? This feels like clickbait until I’m proven wrong.
If we all want USF to change within this decade, the park will have to suffer capacity rides. Doing 1 thing at a time won’t work for a mini overhaul of the park.
Replace HRRR in 2026, hopefully if the rumors are true Pokemon could be 2027, and within 3-4 years we already have 2 major upgrades...
It’s not like HRRR or Simpsons rides are the most popular in the park. It will surely hurt capacity a bit, but if they ever bothered putting in a real show in Fear Factor, that immediately helps.
I’m a January 2026 guy. Give it time to work out the kinks, cooler weather, and hopefully, somewhat slower crowds inbetween MLK day and Valentines Day.
For what it’s worth, my Disney info has been off a lot lately, but I have heard July 4th goal for an opening. Weird it’s not announced yet with expected lower crowds this summer.
I recently rewatched The Imagineering Story on Disney +. Highly recommend for any reader of this forum.
Of course, some corporate propaganda is involved there, but Kim Irvine made a good point. We do, until proven completely otherwise, need to trust the people behind these attraction re-do’s...
I can see them being extra careful with announcements. This could be a very popular re-do of a classic, so expectations are rather high for many. Need it operating perfectly from day 1.
