Do the actual bathrooms and kitchens stay in one piece or are they doing this just to avoid building utility connections elsewhere?

Yes. Look at what they did with Potter as an guide.

They just did a refurb on the kitchen so this would work.
I love the dining and facade, look forward to getting some of the cast pieces from the interior of Mythos in my hot little hands....

They could replace Poseidon’s Fury with an empty lot and it would get the same attention it does now, lol.

It needs to go, fire or no fire. It’s not a crowd puller. Nothing in LC is. The only reason people go through is to get to Harry Potter.

I hope they still utilize that moving theater concept that was patented way back.

Hmmm. I can honestly say I’ve never been on Poseidon’s Fury where it wasn’t filled to capacity. It brings more people in than you think. It’s a good attraction to get cool and out of the sun. I go in the summer when it’s busier so I can’t speak to what it’s like at slower points of the year.

But yes you are correct in the sense LC is just a bridge to get to Potter. A Zelda overlay would be a welcome addition

Mark Woodbury later said that was a mistake, since it cost a lot to upgrade the kitchens and bathrooms used in the first Wizarding World. At the opening of Gringotts/Hogwarts Express, they held a Q and A session for TMs, and that was brought up as a “This didn’t save as much budget in hindsight” answer.

Yea, I really think they’re just going to demolish everything and start from scratch

Seuss is definitely in major need for an expansion imo. It's a large land that has a lot of rides that mostly cater to younger kids and the one family ride has been tamed down so much that it's not even fun anymore. There's nothing wrong with a land aimed at kids, but it would be nice if there was at least one E-ticket within the land that the whole family could enjoy. CitH is not that.

I do think Toon Lagoon is the bigger parkwide issue once LC gets demolished (i.e., get rid of the dated comics and characters and put something worthwhile in there... Bluto's can stay in a re-theme, but Ripsaw has to go. It's embarrassing.) I do hope that they set aside the Toon Amphitheater for Marvel expansion. Marvel has nowhere to expand to but that plot unless they remove some rides.

I mean, it's not a bad attraction design-wise. I think with a complete overhaul on the effects and environment, it could be a serious contender with Splash Mountain.

I hope Mythos get better servers, never got a good experience there. But the theming is amazing and the food is decent.

I have had one gentleman over the last few years that is exceptional. Most are pretty good IMO but this person stood out. Sadly he is no longer working at Mythos. Along with the menu I fear this is the direction it is headed.
