Does anyone think this coaster will lead to a redo/new ride of supercharged in Orlando?

Supercharged will lead to a redo of Supercharged more like.

Depends. A small coaster might be possible in that space, but nothing larger than the Supercharged building would be possible. It's boxed in by Hogwarts Express and Team Member facilities to the west, Diagon Alley to the north, the lake to the east, and Mummy to the south. Otherwise, I don't know what could replace it.

On another thread on this forum mentioned some sort of "No Limit" USJ event coming to USF. A black box dark ride of sort to promote the latest Universal IP or speciality IP for this "No Limit" like even for USF could be an ideal fit for this spot.

Make it an indoor coaster like Mummy, featuring a small outdoor section like a loop or something lol

I’m surprised universal hasn’t considered doing an indoor spaghetti coaster like space mountain, cosmic rewind, rock n roller coaster, etc with a soundtrack and a tall building. They've been proven to be quite popular every time.

An indoor coaster akin to Cosmic Rewind or RnR but themed to BttF would make for a baller ride.

Still sad to see this go as it is surreal to see that sightline so empty now.

Yeah it's insane how much different that area feels without the shop and two buildings

It's bittersweet for sure. I'm not looking forward to the day they tear down the Simpsons ride for the same reason.

Still feeling positive about this coaster though, we NEED this and they can add more shows to the LL when they expand.

I realize this is going in a different direction, but I don’t personally think either Mummy coaster qualifies as a “family” coaster. Though I’d also have to admit they’re not a full thrill coaster either. They’re sort of a gray area.

I unofficially categorize rides as novice, beginner, intermediate, and advanced.

• Novice: Wacky worms and other obvious kiddie only coasters
• Beginner/”Family”: Vekoma Roller Skaters, Jaguar, Pony Express
• Intermediate: Mummy, Space Mountain, Incredicoaster, Ninja, Hagrid
• Advanced: Velocicoaster, Xcelerator, Hangtime, X2, Goliath, Twisted Colossus

Obviously this is all pretty subjective, but the main point is I feel there’s a gray area between family coaster and thrill coaster that isn’t often recognized. They’re often the rides that preteens think are the greatest rides ever, but some adults find too intense.

I think there's a space missing between intermediate and advanced. Something like Ghostrider or Gold Striker aren't intermediate coasters but they're totally not in the same category as Twisted Colossus or X2 in terms of intensity.

Also, I don't see Incredicoaster as a Intermediate. Its relatively tall, has a relatively intense launch and is pretty fast. Nothing particularly intense, but I don't think it belongs in the same category as Space Mountain.

From @HydraGen2299, they are playing with
dirt as progress continues.

And in unfortunate news: the posters on Timeline Drive are now being disposed and rotting.

 

[Jerroddragon]

It hurts to see those post just....on the ground. Makes me think the Universal City sign will also be taken down

 

[ParksandSights]

Really wish they hadn't left those out for all guests to view...

 

[BriefCasey]

Any idea on why tear out the posters? I'm just surprised since I thought they wouldn't intrude on wherever they plan to build.

Hopefully they move them up the hill more, so they can add more modern posters as well.

Gotta add Oppenheimer.

Gotta add Oppenheimer.

Oppenheimer, Nope, whatever the next Daniels movie is. Gotta honor their new auteurs. Throw in Halloween for Blumhouse.

I'm OK with it. Shows that it is a working studio which is part of the draw of the tram ride.
