Looks like they revealed some more scenes in that poster. It also looks like we’ll see some animatronic apes, bears, and cougars.Some unbaised thoughts..man, 2019 is becoming a great year for theme parks.
You have Universal and Knotts both giving one of their water rides some love, Disney with GE, Six Flags with West Coast Racers, and SeaWorld with Tidal Twister. That, is an impressive lineup. And Calico looks amazing.
It was also confirmed that Garner Holt will assist with Animatronics once again, forgot to mention. But man, I am so happy to see Bigfoot finally get the love it deserved.
EDIT: The new Poster,

2019 is going to be an epic year for CA parks. What is your list from most to least excited? Here is mine:
1. DLR-Galaxy's Edge: A no-brainer due to the scale, scope, and massive budget this land has received.
2. Knott's-Calico River Rapids: I love the Old West, Bigfoot, and AA's so of course I'm stoked about this.
3. USH: Jurassic World: From everything I've read, this will be an impressive much-needed overhaul.
4. SFMM: West Coast Racers: I was originally disappointed by this coaster, but I'm actually warming up to it a bit.
5. Seaworld SD: Tidal Twister is a good fit for the park, but it's at the bottom of my list due to the great additions that are being added at the other parks.
I would say the next 3-4 years will be huge for theme parks in Socal, and 2019 is a big start.
SLOP at USH 2020Can you expand on that?
Beyond 2019, all I really know that's coming to CA parks is Super Nintendo World in 2021/22 and Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, but no date has been released.
I was hoping for Diagon Alley or something similar at USH, but it looks like it's a no-go at this point.

I'm still holding out for a new hyper or giga for 2020. The new coaster is rumored to go next to GhostRider and they built some new facilities across the park where the picnic area is. Take that for what you will.
I'd love to see a Vekoma Mad House. I don't know why, but I really love those attractions. Even SFGA did a great job on theirs, and I think Knott's could do an equally good job, perhaps with a Western theme?
they built some new facilities across the park where the picnic area is.
Yes. They essentially built another structure that looks like a barn. I think that's being used for facilities.Haven't been to the park in 2 years. Is this the picnic area just NW of Independence Hall where the chickens roam? Can you elaborate on what facilities were built?
