That could be awesome to have the windows be see through OLED screens. The whole hotel could be an amazing backdrop for a show, sparkling and everything.Imagineering would
Universal will probably just make them screens

Well, since we are speculating. The hotel face (the one the park guests see) will be between the "Bellagio" style fountain show and the fireworks. If Universal wanted to get creative with space they would move any projection style work to the hotel to coordinate with the fountain and the fireworks. Where currently USF has the projections part in the lagoon and on some of the buildings.That could be awesome to have the windows be see through OLED screens.

One difference of the current projections is there aren't people in those buildings, it might be a problem in a hotelWell, since we are speculating.

That way your attention isn't divided by what's going on in the fountain and the projection on the hotel and the fireworks. This creates a layering effect.

True. Backup plan would use the fountain for projection mapping. Although I don't know if the fountain is big enough to do a projection type show like they do in USF.One difference of the current projections is there aren't people in those buildings, it might be a problem in a hotel
I don't know what the fountains are but with the amount of plumbing going in the bottom of those holes I think they will have plenty of screenTrue.

Sorry if this has been asked before, will park guests be able to access the hotel restaurants from the park, or will we need to exit the park and take a bus to the front of the hotel? I imagine so, as they don’t want a million people who aren’t paying guests going in and out all day for funsies
I think the HTTYD coaster could potentially become an E depending on the show scenes. Hopefully some large dragon animatronics scattered about.I was thinking about what attractions will be considered E-tickets, D-tickets, etc....my list:
E-Tickets:
Mario Kart
Donkey Kong Coaster
Monsters Dark Ride
Ministry of Magic Ride
Dueling Coaster
D-tickets:
HTTYD Coaster
Monsters Coaster
C-tickets:
Hub Carousel
Yoshi's Adventure
HTTYD Sky Fly
HTTYD Boat Ride
*******
That being said...also thinking about must-dos....what attraction are people running to when the park opens? My top 3:
1. Donkey Kong Coaster (Even if the ride itself is mediocre...the visual appeal of this ride will be off the charts)
2. Monsters Dark Ride (This may end up having the widest appeal of any ride)
3. Mario Kart (An obvious choice)
*******
Most underrated ride in terms of guest satisfaction:
HTTYD Coaster (Epic's answer to Slinky Dog)
*******
My top 3 picks for "sleeper" hits:
1. Monsters Coaster
2. HTTYD Sky Fly
3. Hub Carousel
*******
What ride may not live up to its "hype"?
1. Mario Kart
2. Donkey Kong
3. Dueling Coaster
The most crowded lands:
1. Nintendo
2. HTTYD
3. Wizarding World
4. Monsters
*******
Which land will have the first expansion? My pick: Monsters
*******
After multiple visits to the park....rank the lands that will offer the best repeat experience:
1. Monsters
2. HTTYD
3. Wizarding World
4. Nintendo

I think if food and beers are good, and the coaster can be a very solid D ticket, I think Monsters is off to a great start for repeat visits. Add in the possibility of a Creature ride in the future, oh boy, that land would be near perfection.I was thinking about what attractions will be considered E-tickets, D-tickets, etc....my list:

The whole UOR resort could use a couple of these, really.The one thing I really wish Epic Universe (or UOR as a whole) had in the lineup is a Pirates-style boat dark ride. If Monsters ever ended up with that, it'd be an incredible land.
The plan currently is just two (the ride and a show).How many "attractions" are we thinking will be in HP? There's the rumored elevator/ministry thing and a theater type show? Seems like there needs to be a third for such an iconic land.
