Are we really spending this much time on walls?
We could debate how long till Bruce gets the lighting he deserves in his new spot... but I think walls are more interesting right now. :happy:

Could the retaining wall and drainage system indicate work in the lagoon? To drain the water by the Amity waterfront, and to re-shape the coastline?
But those plans could have shown the land at the time, and focusing on the stuff going inland, not on the coast. Who knows...

does anyone else think universal is going overboard and relying TOO much on harry potter?
i mean this would have been great 6 years ago but now the movies are done and how long can this idea stay fresh
now they are stuck with it ..
lets just rename the parks POTTERWORLD

Potter is a cultural phenomenon that won't lose relevancy any time soon. That's all I'm going to say on the subject, because that discussion has been done ad nauseum.
But even ignoring that, Jaws has been done for decades, Kong was too when it closed, and BTTF was as well. Why keep them around when they weren't relevant. Note, I think all of them are classics and will always be relevant, but I'm just pointing out a flaw in your argument.
I'd count Disaster as an original ride, considering it's more or less the same experience.
And again, please explain to me how a small portion of the larger resort should require a name change? Or are you just here for an argument.
As Jungleskip said, Potter is only 1/20 of the resort as a whole....
I really didn't want to take part in this discussion, but after months of reading argument after argument.... it gets aggravating. I think people forget that this is a world-class theme park. No matter what we say, think, feel, or fight about in regards to what's happening, we have no control over any of this.

yes you are right disaster is and original its the same ride basically
no im not here to argue but once potter starts expanding like it is i would say a majority of the 2 parks is all based on potter and now it will be there for about 50 years what a drag walking done english streets with few rides drinking butter beer
ill take the universal from when i was a kid...

LOLWUT
The expansion will increase the overall ride count. And the majority will be Potter? What are you smoking? 1 land out of 6 is Potter in IoA, and 1 out of 7 in USF will be Potter. Last time I checked 2 out of 13 isn't a majority.

When Diagon Alley is complete, there will be no comparable theme park experience in the world. There is no where on this planet that you can fully experience a nearly complete world that you've read about in books and seen on film. Do people not understand and appreciate the scope and enormity and specialness of this?
Universal struck gold and hasn't stopped digging for more. I cannot fault them. I can only applaud and appreciate what they are doing. Universal finally has something over Disney, and it's driving the fanbois crazy. The fear they have of even more Potter coming makes my heart smile.
