An omnimover is a slow moving ride system. This can explain how they can fit 4 minutes worth of ride time in such a small space.
This has me question the attraction ever being a trackless ride system. Although I don't have the exact numbers for other trackless rides, they're definitely not as efficient. This high of a capacity seems more logical for an Omnimover… unless each ride vehicle can fit a family of 20..

Yup, and it looked like it could have easily been 3-4 minutes, with a couple scenes where the vehicles dance around in large open spaces.As someone who saw the leaked layout, I can vouch that the original attraction plan was a Trackless dark ride.

Awesome! Are there any photos of the old leaked layout?
It's crazy to me how USH is getting Jurassic World, SLOP and most likely Super Nintendo World before Orlando. These are going to be major additions all happening in a very short 3 year time frame. We're going to see a massive attendance spike in the next few years.

And rightfully so. And then I'll consider USH as a normal destination rather than go to the park on a special occasion like being with a friend or HHN. Comcast's investment into USH will finally paid off.

I agree with the exception of what you say about WDW/DL.To be honest, allow me..to say something that might give me dead-eye from some individuals.
I feel like, we shouldn't be getting into a measuring contest if you catch onward.
Hollywood needs growth, while Orlando is already a full on resort destination, with so much already there. And especially with UOSouth seemingly getting accelerated; the comparing to Hollywood and Orlando isn't really fair in my opinion.
It's the same way I feel about WDW/DL.
I welcome however, the growth; because it's getting Universal Hollywood much closer to being a Full Day experience. And especially with MK, Yoshi, and Pet's (especially that, if they stick to the original plans); things are finally getting clearer.
Pets excites me so much, for what it could just be. There is a lot of potential with that original plan, and if it's that way; it'll be one of the most exciting projects yet for Universal.

Yes, WDW is a much more full fledged RESORT. However, DLR, with only 2 parks, has more attractions than WDW's 4 parks when combined. So DL isn't really lacking in comparison to WDW. It's just running out of space.
I’m surprised you didn’t say DK, but that’s still an uncertainty. But that’s a fair argument. I didn’t necessarily mean to compare it to Orlando in a bad way.

I kinda wonder if they’re still planning to add Diagon Alley? It’d fit nicely in the Lower Lot, next to SNW, Transformers, and Mummy (if that stays). That JW gyrosphere ride could also be put in the Mummy space, and that Minions flat ride from USJ can be added to SSFL. Maybe they can fit a clone of the new HP coaster in the upper lot, but I’m not sure. They could always get rid of WaterWorld to fit it in.
Point taken, but I do think it's a bit pointless.
Not everyone will have the opportunity to do both, and that I do understand however why some may do a bit of that.
I actually..forgot about DK for a moment. :doh:
Considering how SSFL is..well, on-top of a parking structure (and so is DMMM, and the future Pets project), that may be asking for more than what you want.
As far as the Potter Coaster, it wouldn't fit into WaterWorld.
USH is a rare example of them just piling on so much, as it isn't exactly a sprawling theme park like USF or IOA.
Wow, I didn’t know that SSFL was on top of a parking garage. That’s kinda scary.
As for the Potter coaster, it wouldn’t have to fit exclusively in the WaterWorld plot, it can take up something else as well. The coaster is what? Seven acres? That might be too much to ask, but it might fit.
