Universal Orlando Resort Expansion (Part 1)

[Disneyhead]

Yup. Anyone ever wonder why we aren't hearing much for anything after 2020? :toast:

And again, from Bio,

I believe Bio found where they are storing the Potter coaster track. (First pic)

And once again, from Bio and his helicopter army.

not the 'backup' plans .......Universal has one IP that is guaranteed to bring hordes of tourists and locals to their park, that's Potter....Nintendo "might & probably will " bring a good bit of attendance to a park, but it's not a proven theme park attendance guarantee yet. The other IP's are supporting lands, not the feature attendance pull.

Ehhhhhhhhhhh. I don’t think FB will pull anything close to the same attendance that real Potter does. It’s Diet Potter and the reactions to it reflect that.

Could be the entrance to the new resort down the line

I never said FB.

I dunno what from Potter they’d put in Park 3

The only thing, that'd ring a bell, is that they are doing Azkaban. But even that, I have my..concerns over.

I think it could make for a fun attraction

It seems it's going to start using the same locations as the original HP though

Godric's Hollow is about the only thing left.

 

[Mad Dog]

Godric's Hollow is about the only thing left.

and we still don't know where MoM is going 'for sure'.

 

[JungleSkip]

I’m not sure that would really be a great theme park area

and we still don't know where MoM is going 'for sure'.

God I would be legit mad if they moved MoM to Park 3. I don’t think JKR would go for that though

 

[Magic-Man]

Holy cow, they’re moving fast! I was not expecting that much to be done this soon.

 

[Teebin]

Moving MoM to the 3rd park would make strategic business sense however... and we would get a whole other London street scene.

We don’t need another London, though. Unless they do some sort of Werewolf attraction to go along with it, there’s no point in having two areas with the same theme.

MoM and St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries would make up a solid "land".

 

[amityboattours]

I’d still love to take a visit to The Burrow, but you’d very much struggle to make a land out of that too.

Maybe they should just make a land called HARRY POTTER AND THE LEFTOVER STUFF.

Good one.............................but in reality, highly financially feasible.

They could do a MoM of Paris or New York from the Fantastic Beasts movies. I think this is more likely than anything right now.

Strategic sense is putting it in London where it belongs. Strategic sense is replacing an attraction that is dated and the least cared about attraction(FFL) currently existing at USF. Strategic is not having two London’s in two separate parks. What do you think Potter heads would do when they show up in London at USF and see diagon alley and then say “I thought there was MOM too” team member “well there is it’s in New London at our New Park” “wait what, I don’t remember two London’s”. Universal has a bountiful of unused IPs of their own to flesh out as well as deals to make for LotR and Star Trek. I would rather a Fantastic Beasts section, if any WW sections do come,coming to the new park as it can show different aspects more locations ie NY, Paris of the Wizarding World.

Personally, I hope that HP doesn’t appear in the new park as I think it keeps a clear line between the current resort and the new resort.

I think Fantastic Beasts has potential and we could see two more movies before the new park opens and even if they’re not great, I think they’ll still lend themselves to a great experience as a land and rides.

Having said that, I’ve been here long enough to read between the lines.

Hopefully it is Fantastic Beasts, but :shrug:. We could end up having both HP and FB in the same park, which would be weird. And then you possibly have Pokemon and Mario, Classic Monsters and Shrek, so on and so forth.
