I feel like being included in Hollywood and having a potentially rerouted entrance will do a lot for ridership. Having a new marquee right on the main pathway through Hollywood a few facades down from Bourne will make ET pretty hard to miss.

Also I feel that some first-timers probably never even knew ET was there because it was tucked in the kids area that they never had a reason to explore. Being prominent in Hollywood should fix that!

I may be missing something but, I don’t think it’s possible for them to reroute the entrance into Hollywood. There is the backstage/parade gate and road between the show building and Hollywood, so unless they stick it next to La Bomba somehow I don’t think there is a way to shift it that dramatically.

Animal Actors and SpongeBob will probably be part of Hollywood as well.

This. They don’t have to rerout the entrance, just extend Hollywood further into the park. Shown in purple on the map.

Yeah, so that makes sense to keep it as is....just moving the entrance arch out past the ET gift shop. .....DreamWorks alone will bring more people back to that area. The former KidZone was dead, and nearly empty, most of the time during its last few years.

Just wait until Rip Ride Rockit gets redone & becomes the Super Silly Fun Land Coaster

You'll have to endure never-ending Minion ballads

Shoutout to E.T. for now being part of three different lands in the park's history. It's the theme park equivalent of gerrymandering!

Or just put pizza elsewhere & make it a legit Krusty Krab

Although, how long is the Spongebob contract with Nickelodeon good for? I'd rather have a TMNT pizza collab.

Once the contract expires Uni will probably convert it to a DreamWorks Store.

I think the store stop being SpongeBob, but that doesn’t mean contract will expire. They are putting SB in Frisco and I think there’s a chance he gets a bigger presence in the bigger parks if that goes well.

Would the reuse the same archway, maybe new except slightly modified? It would be cool having a newer entrance matching the queue using old school props.

The old entrance was easy to miss. The first looking in that direction you usually see KZ and the Spongebob store, so you wouldn't think there's another ride back there not meant for only kids.

Probably the most bizarre location in a theme park once DreamWorks opens. You'll have an occasionally opened Woody Woodpecker-themed pizza place, SpongeBob, E.T. ride, Shrek's house, and then these 2 (kinda ugly & cheap) DreamWorks M&G tents they just up this weekend that blocks what would have been a nice entry area to the rest of DreamWorks.

Yeah, having to walk through Central Park to get from one side of Hollywood to the other is just trying to impose “lands” on every ride.
