Does anyone know how much expansion room Universal plans on keeping for another world in the park? If they decide to dump Fantastic Beasts, I wonder if they'll just leave that section for an expansion pad if other space is limited.
I get the hate for the 2nd FB, but what if this failure shakes up the series ala Thor Ragnarok and the third movie is the best of.
I've always wondered if they'd do something where you'd use portkeys or a floo network to transport between ministries in a massive duel between various wizards. That'd be cool and offer some awesome set pieces.

Still think it's too much Potter between 3 parks.
But it sells a ton of merchandise.
They already moved established dates around by having McGonagall teaching at Hogwarts long before she herself said she started teaching so why not move the duel up a bit? Who cares about adhering to established continuity anyway? Fans? Pffffff. What do they know?I think that only happens if Warner Bros. assigns Rowling a writing partner. My initial gut reaction would be to say they should also drop the 5-film idea and make it a trilogy, but the timeline just doesn't really allow for that unless they go with a 15+ year time jump, or something; Dumbledore and Grindelwald don't have their confrontation until 1945.
It can still sell a bunch of merchandise between the 2 parks. Minions sells a bunch of merchandise, too - Do we need 3 different Despicable Me lands?
Now this could be a fantastic (ahem) idea! The attraction begins at a foreign Ministry, but during the course of the attraction we Floo, Portkey, or apparate to the London Ministry. I'd roll with that, no question.

Potter will get more people through the front gate. If people are willing to go to IOA and USF and no doubt have a great time, they’ll be wanting more.
Sorry, man. I love Potter but there’s also too much of a good thing. They’ll have more Potter when the Coaster opens in Hogsmeade. They can expand out Diagon eventually. They have merch everywhere around both parks and CityWalk. Tbey can have more merch at whatever Universal Store they’ll have at new Resort. You can still sell the merch without dedicating precious land to it.
Star Wars is huge merch wise but you don’t see Disney adding 3 lands among the 3 different parks.
Uhh I think it was a safe assumption even if it made billions.Safe to assume "Welcome to Marwen" will not be represented in the new park. Total disaster, what was Universal thinking? I am a compassionate guy so feel for the man it was based on but movie looks HORRIBLE.

Man, you and I have wildly differing takes on this one. Only reason imI waiting for Blu Ray is so I can ugly cry in private.

The multi-who now? How does that work?Gonna have to ask to please not make multiple posts, and use the multi-quote feature.
Also, obviously Potter Universe is grander - It was a rhetorical point....
