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

Here's my ideal plan:

Discovery Center is renovated, keeping the same components/idea of what it is now, but it also becomes the ride entrance/exit of the new ride. The ride's show building (or if outdoor, it's track) would be where the Triceratops encounter was (in red), and the back of the DC would be converted into an amphitheater for a nighttime show (similar to rivers of light).

I was going to mention that. Hammond in the book had a bit more P. T. Barnam about him than the film version.

Just curious, how do you select and color regions on Google Maps? I can't figure it out for the life of me.

Also, is a Flying Dinosaur clone still on the table?

Marni had recently mentioned any JP changes are on hold now. Usually his info is pretty reliable.

I don't expect JP to have any modifications unto LC and TL are updated/revamped. Now, if JW ends up going into the new park, JP will go leaving 3 entire lands at IOA having to be updated.

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.

Did we ever figure out what it was they were doing down on the old JP dock? Has anyone taken pictures of it since?

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

in all seriousness though, I think dinos make great movies that younger audiences can enjoy.

when I was a kid, Disney would put stuff like Bambi or Dumbo back in the theaters.

I was happy to take my daughter to a new JP movie...

I can hardly consider that a ride when it restricts adults from riding it unless you have a kid with you.

Plus it has the single lowest capacity of any attraction in an Orlando theme park.

Love Pteranodon Flyers though week 10-17 Feb ie week before President Day school hols;

... Only two birds flying
...No Virtual Pass as ‘quiet’ season so 45min+ long queues (the irony)
...Only can ride ‘with’ under 9 year old (approx)! So last ever ride for us :-(

Does anyone know why there is the height restriction? Is it actually because is a low capacity ride ie to reduce the queues by preventing most people riding / to give kids priority? or is it actually hiding a weight restriction?

You know, I wonder how people would feel about the land if they just covered up the FJ show building with some trees and replaced the electric fences haha

I'd say it's one of the stronger lands at the resort

I think they should just theme it too look like a Jurassic Park DNA Laboratory (similar too the Transformers show building) with a JP jeep parked outside. And then focus on blocking the Greenhouse portion with tall bamboo.

I'm surprised they have made no efforts to hide JP from Potter and vice versa.

Universal likes to show their showbuildings off for some reason...I'd say DA is the first time I've seen them go to extensive efforts to hide things...Maybe Kong as well

Here's hoping Kong and Diagon remain the new standard.
