For DL, either of the two entrances to the right are going to have really great "reveals" as they both have massive and beautiful looking rock archways that you have to walk through to enter the land. The one furthest to the right (nearest Fantasyland) is probably the "main" entrance I would assume.

If Battle Escape is going to be like Transformers then I just completely lost interest. I thought this one was going to be different.
Let's hope the early reports about a VERY heavy AA presence are accurate.
It’s only like Transformers in that it has an elevator.
The ride is a mix of many different ride systems together as one.

from whats been said it will be a vehicle with transformers like motion mixed with laser guns and a lot of aa figures and also screens will be used.Also sliding doors so it could be and omni-mover system as well
The middle one for Disneyland, the one to the right for Hollywood Studios. They're both similarly located.

Ah but instead of “like Transformers”, what if it was like Spider-Man(!) ;-))

It’s actually kind of odd that the entrance from TSL is technically the “big reveal” entrance but they’ll be using that as an exit-only for quite some time.
It's not going to be...I truly believe Disney has something special planned for this
WWOHP must be near to that... at least, Diagon Alley must be, anyway. The theming in WWOHP is among the best in the world, in my opinion, and from photos, Diagon Alley looks better than Pandora for me!
I thought people said that Diagon is around 450 million, but I could be wrong.
That's the apx. figure I've seen bandied about for Diagon/London/Gringotts/HE & both HE stations from most insiders.
I'm not a big Harry Potter Fan so I'm not bias but I think it is way better than Pandora. The amount of detail is amazing. And I just found out last year there is this whole other section in the back where the bad guys are.

Pandora is around $750-800m. Hogsmeade is around $200m and Diagon was around $250m.
WWoHP cost significantly less than Pandora. Universal did a great job producing an outstanding product during the recession. I think both Diagon and Hogsmeade possibly costed just a little bit more than what Pandora did.

in all fairness, the amount of rock work / fake fauna / landscaping in Pandora is pretty staggering. They also built 2 new rides vs 1.
Store fronts and retail shop or relatively cheap to construct. So they saved a lot of money there.
Not trying to say Potter looks "cheap" or anything.

I think it’s reasonable that Pandora costs more than WWoHP, but the extent to which it is greater is the issue.
