Star Tours is a singular, bad ride that has no possible way to add more rides around it. There's so much wasted space in JP as-is. Tear down the Visitors Center and put a ride there. Makes more sense then creating yet another land in IoA that needs replacing.

Yea, well, I think they should probably should have waited a hot second until the hot turd that 2 seems to be is released. Still, I don't see how it makes financial sense to close a perfectly good land and move it 2 miles.

There's sooooo much wasted space in JP. They either need to add to IOA or move the franchise to Park 3 and put that land in IOA to better use because it is being painfully wasted right now.

The Discovery Center and old Trike Encounter could all be taken out for a new E-ticket and it'd still have room for more dinosaur encounters

With the only ride being a water ride too, many people just completely skip the land too, so yeah, there definitely needs to be a new E-ticket added. I'd say there's room for 2 E's, but i'd settle for an E and a D.

Ehhhhh I don't think there's that much room. Unless you take out Camp Jurassic too, which I can't get behind

If you go vertical there's plenty of room (Transformers, SLOP rumor, etc)

Eh. Maybe. I think that’ll probably ugly up the land a bit. But I think adding a Gyro ride to JPRA, Camp Jurassic, Pteradon, and Raptor Encounter is enough

I kind of feel like the Discovery Center ties the whole land together. I'm not saying there's not wasted space, but the DC creates a pretty terrific visual lure from across the lagoon.

Most of the wasted space is all of the land where Triceratops Encounter was. But yes, the Discover Center is also something that, while iconic from the first movie, takes up a lot of space for a lot of nothing.

I'd love to see a ride go in there, absolutely.

Just want to mention real quick that the land immediately past the Discovery center is piled high and is on a second floor, so a large showbuilding could be built without truly taking away from the current environment.

The "move JP to Park 3" idea always comes off like this to me:

If they plan on building the exact same thing, yeah.

JP (The movie franchise) is becoming increasingly tired. There's only so many times you can watch what is basically the same movie over and over again.

I wish they'd reboot the whole thing at this stage and turn it into a 10 part mini series.

But the last one showed Jimmy Buffet’s skill at keeping his margarita from spilling. To me, that was ‘different’.

Pretty sad when one of the highlights in a movie about dinosaurs is Jimmy Buffet.

Perhaps you've stumbled upon the plot/storyline for JW part four. More substance than their predecessors. ;):lol:

I thought Jurassic World was outstanding. And I'll definitely be going to see the new one too. I think this series has a lot more juice left in the tank and I'd love to see some sort of expansion, whether it be at the new park or in Islands.

I would settle for updating the existing dinos on JPRA. That commercial is pretty misleading when you see the Raptor Encounter and the AA's on JPRA in real life. I mean i love them but I have on nostalgia goggles... new guests who see DA and Hogsmeade and Kong and then JPRA are probably shocked at the figures barely hobbling along. Especially those raptors on the lift hill that can barely be bothered to move. I'm a little surprised that knowing JW was coming out 2 years ago and that there would be subsequent sequels, they didn't pump a little more love in to the land. If only to bring it up to the parks standards.

They can fit a ride where Triceratops is and have the queue/load be at the Discovery Center.
