Splash Mountain didn’t either......Yoshi doesn’t close during heavy rain???
But it has significant outdoor section, right?

Oops, that's likely not the case. That's what I get for relying on AI. Fixing...Yoshi doesn’t close during heavy rain???

The very first concept art walked my expectations way back. Immediately gone were the rumors of a park on the scale of Epcot and the artistry of DisneySea. What we're getting is nice, but severely marred by the hotel. Certainly we're getting some great theming, but the some portals (monsters/dragon) seemed designed to deliver specific photo-ops rather than full-360 immersion.Is anyone worried at all that EU won’t live up to the person hype you’ve built up over years of excitement for it?
A bit nervous about that ngl.
Happened with cosmic rewind for me
Not sarcasm at all -- sure it's great in theory to have access to 4 theme parks...but most people don't actually do that. And if you look at the number of attractions you may do from sun-up to sun-down, is it really ALL that different? You're also talking to someone who has been to every WDW theme park 20-30 visits in my lifetime vs something completely brand new.I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not. Are we comparing a ticket that gets you into 4 theme parks in a day, to a ticket that gets you into a single park?
Splash Mountain didn’t either......
It’s a fair enough take, I just think it can be cross-applied to just about any resort. I can see myself doing an IoA-EU park hop day where I do Hagrids/Veloci/Spidey, leave, and then do just Monsters/Ministry/Stardust.Not sarcasm at all -- sure it's great in theory to have access to 4 theme parks...but most people don't actually do that.

It was just a comparison of the dollar amount on if i wanted to do 1 day at EPIC, vs say Animal Kingdom morning, end at Hollywood Studios for Fantasmic with 1 full day to do as much of those parks as possible. In theory...the value is pretty similiar and actually less expensive with EPIC.
Not being combative, but hope this clears up my thoughts.

because a lightly themed hotel as a weenie is super lame. Especially when you see what Universal has done with Volcano Bay and Isla Nublar in Beijing. The hotel is… a choice.You’ve ripped that thing a new one, as for discussion boards go, nonstop.
Is its placement and/or architecture really that bad?? Because to me it looks passable based on pictures.

Can you tell me what the theme is from afar?I saw it yesterday in person **in full disclosure from afar with a drive by** and I’ve seen pictures online and it does not look lightly themed. Perhaps my idea of lightly themed differs than most.

I'm willing to argue Donkey Kong also falls into the same pitfalls slightly. It's interesting that the two Universal original lands suffer from this issue while the two that have to be licensed out have marginally better sightlines and immersion.The very first concept art walked my expectations way back.

Makes sense, they have to please the companies that are licensing out the IP.It's interesting that the two Universal original lands suffer from this issue while the two that have to be licensed out have marginally better sightlines and immersion.
Doesn’t excuse it. If anything we should be thankful Rowling and Nintendo have such high standards.Makes sense, they have to please the companies that are licensing out the IP.
Wow dude I think you need to seek help for that condition or unleash your heartI'm just going to blame Harry Potter for taking up budget/time/space again and call it a day because I don't like it /s.
As a huge coaster fan (farewell Rip Ride Rocket) I'm worried about reports that Stardust is rougher than Velocicoaster- a ride I was not expecting to be rattled on so much. Also some have said Donkey Kong seems to shudder after turns due to the unique ride system. Coasters don't tend to get smoother over time. The DK comments are distressing as it is basically a prototype and this may be indicative of long term problems (Do we know why Japan was delayed?)
Stardust as a coaster looks fun and a must ride though it is basically a Six-Flags attraction in execution. (Actually, Six Flags will destroy this with "Falcon's Flight")
Werewolf- should be fun, but short and covered in nets.
Mine Cart- a curiosity mostly- worth a try as it is a novel concept.
Hiccups- A fine looking family coaster with what looks like an odd 50/50 split between great theming and show elements and theme-shattering site-lines and... more nets.
