(Rumor) New Potter Attraction to Replace Fear Factor Live?

[wutisgood]

is universal leaving the new park to one ride in that harry potter area or making another new ride?

 

[GAcoaster]

I'd bank on at least one more attraction for the new Potter area. 2-3 large attractions with additional atmospheric attractions is what the other two Potter areas offer.

Quick, remove the bleachers so it can't come back

It already looks like a construction site.

Is the plan to connect this to Diagon or will it live on its own?

I know there is A way to connect it to Diagon but it seems much easier to give it its own entrance where FFL currently enters/exits

More likely on its own. Canonically, MoM isn’t connected to Diagon anyway. It can be separate and still thematically exist in the London Waterfront.

I don’t think this’ll be themed as the Ministry of Magic. MoM is still rumored for the main Potter ride at Epic.

Yanno', if they wanted to do this VR attraction as the Battle of the Seven Potters, it would be very fitting for it to be Number 4, Privet Drive. Another key location which has yet to be represented in the parks.

I think it'll be separate, the Diagon "entrance" is just backstage/emergency access and there is an emergency access point between FFL and Diagon they'd have to workaround.

Or over.

But yea, it’s just immensely easier to build it separate on the other side of the access road gate.

Oh and for capacity, if don't want to have attraction access held back by that. See HE being "part" of Diagon Alley but not IN Diagon Alley.

But Kings Cross is not in DA in the story and has no access to?

Unfortunately Privet Drive is too small to hide a show building... unless they pull off something like Dinosaur where they built a berm in between the facade and ride building.

Who says this will be? It can all be "London".

 

[PerceptiveCoot]

Imagine if MIB: International had done really well. It could have been London down the whole street.

I bet it will be an original story ala Hagrid

It’s closing on November 1st, but it has been closed since March 2020, right? I don’t think it ever reopened. So it’s pretty much been permanently closed since then.

In a sense, yes. Had it not of been for the pandemic, it likely would've been back up on a quicker turnaround as FFL.

I had good memories of this show when I visited as a kid… now moving on!
