    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hollywood

    Again, as I said, those dates might end up being 100% true and accurate. Notice I said the dates aren't set. But I didn't say they weren't NOT planning on those specific dates. Sometimes this stuff can be pushed back a few days or a week or so, it depends on getting the green light. With that...

    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hollywood

    Those dates may very well end up being true, i just know from my source that they haven't 100% narrowed down the dates yet and haven't fully committed to them. But I guess you never know, if those were the dates they were shooting for, might end up happening! I'm torn...I'm beyond excited to...

    House of Horrors Replacement

    I'm wondering....could the "entertainment/maze" space not be done until September because they planning on making it a flex space for different mazes? Maybe they'll keep the space general enough that they can easily switch out The Walking Dead for other IPs or for other uses? I personally think...

    The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hollywood

    I can confirm that they have not narrowed down soft opening dates yet. We're getting close but they're working things out. Also...I've said this before and I'll say it again: I can't get over what a stunning icon Hogwarts is, and not just for USH, but for most parts of LA now! The best kind of...

    WE CAN HOLD EACH OTHER. I think we're gonna need to organize a therapy/support session for all us West Coast Potter fans....

    First official mention of a preview event for Wizarding World! Look in your emails! I can't believe this is happening....someone hold me.

    Back to the Future: The Ride

    That was beautiful! Amazing job! Almost seamless! Pity that Universal released such a crappy AND cropped standard definition version of the footage for the Bluray release. Hopefully once the films are rereleased in 4K, we'll get a proper transfer of this masterpiece of ride film. Great job again!

    Disneyland Resort

    By the way, I got to FINALLY watch Disneyland Forever in its entirety from the middle of main street a few days ago! Definitely the most immersive fireworks show I've ever seen! I still prefer Remember Dreams Come True, but the amount of work gone into "Forever" is incredible. The projections...

    Disneyland Resort

    I think both parks have equally difficult tasks at hand. I predict their openings might be very close together. They both have quite a few things going for them and against them. For Disneyland, the positives are that a lot of what they will use as square footage for the new land is currently...

    Disneyland Resort

    Pirates of the Caribbean and Indiana Jones also have pretty massive show buildings. It's absolutely a good sign that Star Wars will have huge show buildings. Bring on the practical sets and effects!

    Disneyland Resort

    Yeah, the show buildings will be pretty massive. But to conceal them, they will be covered by stunning and equally as massive rockwork and more. I think it's going to give Cars Land a run for it's money it terms of that initial "wow" moment.

    I'd rather see her join the Beauxbatons girls... ;)

    Best explanation to the AP black out dates situation, Brenda, and the Wizarding World becoming a part of our cozy little park to begin with:

    Jurassic Park: The Ride (Now Closed)

    I wonder if their animatronics are more limited in movement because of the nature of it being a rapids ride, as you don't have time to eagle eye on each figure because of the constant spinning. Still pretty cheap though. Their finale is beyond lame and way too tame/anticlimactic. I give them...

    So blessed we have the last legacy Premium Pass! Gonna cherish it this year more than ever! *bows down* I might become the new Brenda, but exclusively inside Hogsmeade everyday. (that reference was for the special select few old timers around here...haha ;) )

    Jurassic Park: The Ride (Now Closed)

    I always loved that our T-Rex was a surprise and was hidden. I love how cool the Orlando version is, especially its fluid movement, but it's just "there" and there's surprise. Ours just needs a much stronger waterfall and thicker fog to cover it before the reveal. It's too thin right now.

    Diagon Alley USH

    It would be an absolute shame to not include the Hogwarts Express. It would also be a big hit here and is such a unique experience, and I'm sure they can be smart in how they strategically build it here even with our weird terrain and park/studio layout. And of course us having it all be part...

    Universal attractions have 3 signature traits: 3D, obnoxious overuse of water effects, and partially exposed show building. Can't break the tradition now! ;)

    Been hearing the same about February now. My birthday is February 9th, so....that will be absolutely incredible if it's open on my birthday!

    House of Horrors Replacement

    ^ I agree on both points! I have no problem with the scale, it's definitely more charming and less intimidating than some other facades in other parks. Good use of forced perspective while not being too overwhelming. But I do agree that it's beyond weird that the Universal Plaza tower is ever...
