While I completely agree with your sentiment that the JP aesthetic is far superior to the JW decor, I think the idea of keeping the land a mishmash of Jurassic then and now was wishful thinking on a lot of our parts. Sure, the general public probably doesn’t really care if it’s “World” or “Park” or a bit of both, but Universal is particular about theme consistency. Having the New Raptor Encounter lean into “World“ in every conceivable way makes it just plain odd that the signage around the land remains “Park”. I think we’ll see that slowly change. Ideally, for me, at this point I hope they update the DC, change the signage, give it some tech TLC, repaint where absolutely necessary, update the animatronics on RA, but keep as much of everything else that they can the same (I’m looking at you, lagoon).
Bottom Line? Whether you love Jurassic World or hate it, you have it to thank for Jurassic’s presence continuing in the parks for many more years to come. I never thought they’d get rid of Jaws, even after they closed BTTF. Once that happened, anything was possible.
Except when it comes to E.T., that adorable little runt.
