It's definitely going down. It's noted on the opening times page of their site as closed 1-18th December.
Well Hogsmeade has been open for 6.5 years now. FJ is great, but everything needs some TLC every once in awhile. I would think a repainting could be in order for certain parts of the castle to as i'm sure the paint has faded over the years bathing in the Florida sun.Well, as ever, I missed that the date had been posted. Why would rock work need to be redone?
Uni doesn't close their rides for refurbs too often. They do good enough daily maintenance that it normally isn't needed.^Spider-man ran from 1999-2012 without a refurb.
Id replace the whomping willow, not sure with what though. Then Id use the whomping willow as part of a larger outdoor attraction to replace DC. Whomping willow always seemed lost within FJ to me, such an iconic part of the movie I think it deserves more
Maybe they're taking some elements out that will be featured in the new DC ride replacement :whistle:

I've seen speculation that the tree cutting around the building could have been for a future castle projection show. Any way that could have something to do with this? I'm skeptical that they'd need to shut the ride down for that kind of thing, but I figured I'd throw it out there.
My impression of the tree cutting was it was to improve the view for photos. So many people were trying to squeeze in the same small area on the bridge for pics with Hogwarts in the background. Now the same shots can be taken from more areas.I've seen speculation that the tree cutting around the building could have been for a future castle projection show.

I'm not sure what Hollywood does, but I think any major changes aren't being done in 18 days.
