Finally some news for Disney Parks...looks like they're finally getting the message. Here's my two-cents: They need to figure out what they are overall as a park. They need to identify what type of experience they're going to offer and how it differs from all the other parks. This will help...
Well if this is happening it may not be a rushed as we think. If I remember correctly, back in January it was confirmed that a stage show was in development. Now I know that doesn't seem to mean much but hey they put that Ice Show together pretty quickly. They probably have costumes ready, sets...
Wait so if the water park does go in the plot behind CB then what happens to Wet n Wild....I doubt Uni will do anything with it soon but what could they actually fit there? Looking at it now, there doesn't seem to be much space for a 3rd gate (unless they fill in that massive lake). I could see...
Perhaps if Uni added something specifically for night it would incline people to either stay later or leave and come back at night. Something like a water show in pool/beach area around the Volcano could be cool and would rival Disney's "Rivers of Light" show at Animal Kingdom.
As cool as that sounds, I honestly don't see Uni doing it. They really can't benefit from it because hundreds if not thousands of guests have already been on DC, a retheme won't be a big draw for guests. It would be the equivalent to Uni adding more towers to Hogwarts or more rockwork to hide...
While I don't mind DC, I do believe it takes up a lot of land that could be better used in adding at least two more attractions. But I don't know about Uni retheming DC...it's already there. People know how it looks and spending money to add rockwork or more trees would be a waste IMO. The most...
I think as long as there is a lazy river we're good. A wave pool seems over done IMO...perhaps just a beach area around the volcano where people can swim around in?
So apparently Cirque du Soleil is teaming up with Cameron to do an Avatar based Show....but it doesn't seem like it's coming to the parks although part of me is saying it will if budget cuts ensue...
Probably not to scale, but I say it could easily fit in, with easy connection to the water taxi (Oh and this is old concept for the project I found online...who knows if Uni will keep it the same if they ever decide to do it)

What about Mike Newell? I mean, Goblet of Fire did have a lot of magical creatures in it: Mermaids, Dragons, and I think the way he handled the Quidditch World Cup opened up the Wizarding World in a relatable and realistic way.
Well, considering that it's where Harry finds it in the first place...I just think it would be good for the inevitable long wait to be seated....I like the idea for Madam Malkins as well
Here's the photo Hate posted...does anyone know were this is??? I wonder if the blurr is on purpose...

I could see this being put somewhere in Leaky. Possibly in the line while you wait to be seated, they could have someone off in another room who responds to guests and their appearances like "You look like a famous wizard I used to know...but I forgot his name...Harry....Harry.." and the guests...
It's sorta hard to see but in PixelsAtTheParks Photo it appears that there are more switchbacks in the alley leading to Carkit Market....Didn't know it would spill out into the streets...It seems that it will cause people to enter and exit Carkit Markit through that one opening near Weasley...
Don't know if anyone brought it up, but according to Hatetofly's twitter, there's a massive clearing near Universal Property....or on Universal Property....
With Coraline, you could have a photo-purchase opportunity in the queue where you have buttons for eyes. You could purchase it in the gift shop maybe? And there could even be an option to chose what color buttons you want. They already have this on their website if I remember correctly but...
