Bring on the Blue and Silver!
I said as much in Hollywood's thread. I can see Orlando taking the idea of this, but it wouldn't be a like for like change.And the blood!

Orlando wouldn't use the blood to that scale, for one. And I'd hope they would avoid the "jungle" motiff so this ride is so visually similar to AK's Dinosaur. But the overall polish would be a great add.
I was just looking at ours again and I forgot the Raptor pen is placed differently here. I second what you are saying a redone version of ours but unique with the ending of California's would be niceI think there's a way to take a "best of both worlds" approach. I would hope so, anyway. Give River Adventure's first half a refresh with new/refurbished/additional AAs, transition into a Predator Cove area that actually, you know, has some predators that we can see (how about a Baryonyx peering out of the jungle paddock, for example?), in addition to establishing that the Indominus has escaped, and the culminate with the new finale from Hollywood.
I really don't want the aquarium conceit to transfer over, personally. Though I'm sure that's the element that is probably most likely to happen if JW comes to Islands. You're basically just left with 3 animatronic dinosaurs in the whole ride until the ascent, and I think there needs to be more.

I feel like our River Adventure is longer, is that correct or nah?
Also, I feel like we'd get some new (rather than refurbed) dinosaurs in the middle of the ride.
Also, also, I like how the raptors had one of the most tense scenes in cinema history in the first movie, and now they have the cutest icon.
I like that idea. I'd hate to lose the grand entrance with the gates opening, in Orlando. That's a awe inspiring beginning.I could see them keep everything up till the containment area and put the aquarium there as part of predator cove. That’ll transition better plus you can be lifted out of the aquarium on the ramp and see the Monosaur to the left and right of you right below.

This type of scenario is probably best we could hope for. If they take their time and listen to what people did/didn’t like about the JW update and then have a better version open in Orlando. My dream would be to keep the JP theme and restore all the animatronics to their original working glory or just replace them with all new ones with really fluid movements. Sadly I don’t think that will fly as they will only update if turning into JW. I just hope they make some improvements from the Hollywood version but sadly they will probably clone as much as possible to save money.
Pretty much, you will always have people who wont be able to let go of an old ride.Watching the POV, it looks good. I think the only thing maybe bringing it down is that it’s an upgrade because if that was a new ride, the reviews would be even better.
How long did the overlay of JW take?
