Got my own write-up out now with some extra added rumors and my layout too!

I think you know the answer to that.
So it's almost a certainty this will be a 2020 attraction. My guess is once it opens, JPRA will go down for its retheme, and Jurassic World River Adventure/a general refresh of the land will be the big 2021 project
I can’t imagine that JK/WB are happy about this.They can't help themselves but interfere with the Harry Potter theming next door can they? I though just the JP gate being where it was after Hogwarts was built was bad....but this is ridiculous.
I though the idea of removing Dragon Challenge (among other things) is that it clashed too much with the rest of the area.
I mean, I'll be happy to be wrong.
One would hope that track on the Hogsmeade side will be low enough to not be visible over the buildings from inside the land.I can’t imagine that JK/WB are happy about this.
I'm not necessarily worried about seeing it as much as the noise intrusion.One would hope that track on the Hogsmeade side will be low enough to not be visible over the buildings from inside the land.
Back porch for three broomsticks already has a view of Hulk and all other islands so maybe not too big a deal.

I would hope they would wait to see how Hollywood's revamp is received before they commit to bringing it to IOA. Its quality and merits are only speculative at this point.
Hogsmeade just can't get away from that bare steel coaster view. Chalk it up to the Curse of the Dragon Challenge.

It's a theme park, you're not actually eating at The Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade...
I don’t think anyone is going to be let down.
That's not the point. For me, this has been a nice, calm location to eat in IOA and to get away from the crowds (and eating peacefully by the water).It's a theme park, you're not actually eating at The Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade...

I'm sure watching the coaster in the same location could be cool for some people, but some quieter areas are appreciated and the noise from this is going to change that porch entirely.
Ironic.
The idea of the best theme parks is that they're designed to be so immersive, you could actually imagine you ARE eating at The Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade. Otherwise it's just like Busch Gardens or similar.
If only that were the way they operated. However, they simultaneously planned for both USH and UO when they designed Kong and Fast 360. So.......I would hope they would wait to see how Hollywood's revamp is received before they commit to bringing it to IOA. Its quality and merits are only speculative at this point.
That’s a problem that’s been touched on before as well. You’ll find we’re a fairly consistent bunch.Big difference between eating IN Three Broomsticks or out on the patio overlooking the lagoon. For the record, I think they are squeezing this roller coaster in an area not meant for it. However, being able to see Hogwarts from Jurassic Park doesn't really make me imagine I'm in a jungle in Costa Rica. I realize I'm in a theme park surrounded by different lands, characters, rides, etc.
Asking for real: is this just based on a hunch, or knowledge you have of the project? Because I can definitely envision plausible scenarios where it's a step down from the original incarnation.
