Don't Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios and Epcot currently only have like 8 or 9 rides each right now? 12 would be great at the start. Especially if there are a couple big shows.

Correct. I was still hoping for more. #Greedy lol
My big issues are that the Orlando parks all seem to eschew having many B-C ticket sized attractions. Like the Nintendo concept originally had 2-3 flat rides included. I think things like that take parks to the next level. Just having more options than people know what to do with.
I think twelve's a very solid starting number (even though I'm really only interested in six of them, based on what we know/don't know so far).
Seems like it's going to be a pretty well-balanced park with decent variety, especially when factoring in shows and possible walk-throughs.

What impresses me with what we know right now, is it feels like it would be very easy to spend a full, or at the least a 1/2 day in all these lands. Whether you're like me and my bf who will soak up every square inch of the area, or people who just do rides, people who just visit for shows and meet and greets, there's an abundance of offerings on the table. Going to be very similar to IOA where there will be offerings here for ANY kind of park guest. I love the variety Universal provides.
I think each Universe will maximize its environment. Nintendo has a ton to do besides the rides with meet and greets, interactive stuff, viewers, improving your score and probably a small show or two. I think the other Universes also will have that amount of involvement. There are now people who can spent 2 day in the Wizarding World without going to anything else in the parks. I expect this to be next level to that.

Yep, you said it best. Universal has taken what they've learned from Potter and applied it to a brand new theme park, and expanded on those ideas now that the budgets are available. I know I'm a Universal fan first but objectively speaking I really feel the future for the best theme park experiences will be with Universal. But, lets see how it all shakes out. On paper this all sound just incredible

I feel like Flat rides can be tricky ... they MUST be aesthetically pleasing and fit in well with their environment or else they just look kind of cheap.
I think Astro Orbiter is a great ride and very visually appealing, while I LOATHE triceratops spin.
I think the carosuessal looks great..... meh on red fish two fish... I like twirl and hurl a lot, (but I may be a little biased)
The zodiac carousel sounds amazing though and I would love to see that!

Great. I’ve always thought around 10 or above is what a park really needs.
Ideally it would be 15+.
This is a great start tbh
Honestly, we are not accounting for the incredible theming that goes along with this
For me, Universal does not create lands for attractions but rather lands that ARE attractions...with rides embeded within
This is why Diagon, for me, gets away with one ride...The land iteself has so much life that it's an attraction on its own
It's going to be so wild to see most of the coasters be finished, about 18 months before park opening.
It's going to kill some people here just watching and waiting.

Never mind that, it's just going to suck to see these giant showbuildings and not be able to know what's inside of them until the park opens.

Tbh, even though I follow news/speculation for this park almost daily at this point, once construction really begins to ramp up I think I'm going to stay back a bit and wait for the final product. Its gonna be incredibly hard to do that considering I even know some details on these things at this point but I also want to wait for some more official concept are to get hyped.
But who knows, I likely won't be able to help myself
Heck, watching the construction grow, in phases, is half the fun. That's what made Hagrid's so enjoyable, since most of it was outside, and easy to follow, and the inside part let us guess.
Just seeing anything that isn't just dirt or utilities might kill me at this point
Yeah, we all know you will zoom in on any detail that you can find, as do I.Tbh, even though I follow news/speculation for this park almost daily at this point, once construction really begins to ramp up I think I'm going to stay back a bit and wait for the final product.

In the end, seeing it in person from ground level and going into the (ride) buildings will still be a huge surprise.
good point. :thumbsup:Yeah, we all know you will zoom in on any detail that you can find, as do I.
