If a show was coming, I could see them simply putting it inside Stage 28. However, since they are demolishing the building, I am thinking this is going to be a ride.

With the CURRENT size of the building, plus the possibility of them making the future building even bigger (like building down to make it multi story and deeper), I definitely see this as a new ride sometime in the future.
Ideally I wish this would've been done before Potter, to help with future Potter crowds, but as long as it comes, I'm happy

I don't condone throwing anything off the tram, but it is an interesting technique nonetheless.

Ohhhh that sounds interesting. I don't condone it either...might I might just accidentally drop a black rose off of the tram and forget that there is an emergency cord running down the center of the tram.
But yeah I was wondering why the guides weren't mentioning it, I found it disrespectful.

When I was assigned extended queue duty at TF, I would always tell guests about stage 28 across from them. We had a fun relationship with that one, sad to see it and the history it represents go. But ah well, new attractions here we come!
Viewing the demolition during HHN is quite the eerie sight. It's a bit of a trip seeing huge, gaping holes in the sides of the building as you walk through the Lower Lot.
I'm really hoping for a show. I really think we need at least one more because Animal Actors really needs to go.
Sadly aside from a revamp (which it needs BADLY), I don't see Animal Actors going anywhere anytime soon.
I know...wishful thinking on my part. But it's going to be desperately cramped on that upper lot soon, so another crowd eater down below is really needed.
Yeah, Animal Actors is the only live "kid friendly" show at the park. I don't see it leaving for a long, long time.
Long term wise, I would make Stage 28 a Brand New attraction, replace SES with a new attraction, and then make Shrek into a new SES type show or in general a fancy flex space theatre.

Kinda surreal. So much is changing so fast. But this change was especially historic. The oldest building they've demolished for the theme park if I'm not mistaken.
This is quite the time to be a USH fan, boys and girls. Take note!
Number 1 will be the StarWay music change. Number 2 will be the arrival of the minions. The rest don't really matter.

You can add the removal of Flinestones, House of Horrors' closure, Stage 28's demolition, and the overall different look of the park in that list.
right now, it has to be this.
10.) AvP having the Queen - I'm surprised about this being a esclusive from what it seems and my, no wonder john wanted Alien.
9.) Fast and Furious/Springfield Announcements - It wasn't a surprise but from what was shown in concepts and now construction; its very special.
8.) Flinstones/louies closing early - I would of thought it would of been more gone after Grinchmas but, man its a surprise.
7.) How Fast FJ is going up - This is a very suprising thing also, its very special to see Hogwarts start to come up and its unbelieveable how fast they're going so far.
6.) More Focus on Food - Its kinda unique on whats happening and man, its very much a good idea to get food set up for the crowds of next year and 2016 but I would of thought maybe late 2014/early 2015. But I am wrong..
5.) Night Time Studio Tour - this has gotta be a very unique announcement as with the BTTF rumors, it kinda gets me excited to see what they will do with whatever the Nighttime tour has in store.
4.) Despicable Me - This has gotta be a surprise. Wrong was I when I thought this would be a cheap overlay of T2 but man, what they have done for SSFL and Grus neighborhood is amazing. and even though the ride is the same; it is done to where I don't give 2 craps about it being a simulator.
3.) House of Horrors closure - This has to be the most suprising closure of any park. I would of thought they keep it for potter crowds but, Its suprising on that we might be getting a full-service dining spot with possible Citywalk entrance. I hope what comes makes up HOH.
2.) SS28 removal - oh god I can't begin about this... I am surprised its happening this soon, i'm surprised how fast this sucker is going down and its very special of that this is getting the big change.. I still think it will be a ride but man.. depressing and amazing.
1.) NBCUniversal Evolution getting the greenlight - Ok, The one thing that I have to put at number one. Quite possibly to be a possible savior to Universal Hollywood, The NBCUniversal Evolution got greenlit and i'm happy it is. I am interested to see the outcome of the plans and I am very excited.

10.) AVP
9.) F&F/SpringField
8.) Flinstone/Louie
7.) FJ construction
