Hasn't USJ been doing the Hogwarts Castle walk through as an attraction since opening? I'm surprised it has taken a global pandemic to make it's way to the US.
Not sure I get why Simpsons can't operate, it's in a massive IMAX dome and they could reduce the amounts aloud in each Delorian (what do we call them now?!)
I think you guys are misinterpreting what they plan to do. I took the quote to mean that they will be pulsing entry into the indoor, more heavily regulated indoor queue to reduce backups and time spent inside - but then those folks will presumably still get on the ride. They may separately offer a "castle tour," but this feels more like a workaround to California's bizarre regulatory requirements. I imagine Mummy and Transformers will work similarly with their outdoor extended queues.
There isn't going to be a whole lot of park, though. Despicable Me and Simpsons staying closed is pretty rough for a park with less than 10 rides.
