As you enter the MACUSA building, the queue will take you through the upper level (as seen above) of the building, then you'll walk downstairs, where you will walk through Tina's Office, until you reach a hidden door that will take you the Pre-Show. After leaving the Pre-Show, you'll walk through an alley until you reach a New York facade.

Ride Experience

The ride will take through 8 different scenes where you'll be faced by a variety of fantastical beasts. In the Scene 1, you'll be riding through the streets of New York, where you'll meet a Niffler, a Pukwudgie, and a Mooncalf. The Scene 2, will take you to a beautiful lake, where a community of Merpeople is waiting for you, along with a few grindylows; if you look closely to the trees surrounding the lake, you'll be able to spot a few Clabberts. During the Scene 3, you'll be transported to a Zoo, there an Erumpent is breaking havoc, try to not direct the light to his eyes, or else he might try to follow you, and if you're determined enough you'll be able to spot a group of Bowtruckles. The Scene 4 will take you back to the streets of New York, and it is infested with Sweeping Evils and Billywigs, make sure they don't touch you! In order to take shelter from the Sweeping Evils and Billywigs, you'll enter a Departament Store (Scene 5 & 6), where you meet a cute but hard to spot Demiguise, who will lead you to a magnificent Occamy. Then at the Scene 7, you'll return to the streets of New York, there you'll be lucky to admire some beautiful Fwoppers, a Diricawl and the uncomparable Thunderbird. The Scene 8, will be the most thrilling of them all, as you'll be facing an Obscurus, the most dangerous creature of them all, don't let it reach you. Once the ride ends, you'll unload at a Subway Station, and some stairs will guide you outside of the building.

Note: This is my first time developing a ride concept, so I hope you like it :)
I want to thank @D Hindley for the idea of using wands instead of lamps :)
Two thumbs up. Superb attraction!

I got to admit that either Rise of the Guardians or How to Train your Dragon would make cool attractions, as well as The Croods. :)
I am seriously pondering if Pokemon Land should be replaced with a How to Train Your Dragons land. It fits UniSEA no question (we've worried that maybe Pokemon doesn't). I wonder if it's too similar to Hyrule next door, or if it's timeless enough.

If you have any ideas for HTTYD, please share! Love what you've done with Fantastic Beasts so far.

Thanks, I’ll try to think of something. As soon as I’ve thought of something, I believe could work, and is worth it. I’ll post it!

Have all of Red's logos, the art, and content compiled. :bookworm:

The one this with Wix is it is a pain in the rear to go back and edit stuff most of the time -- so I am going to show the website piecemeal, and if anyone has any suggestions for format/additions - then is the time to speak your mind before I finish the whole thing. :p

To give a sample of the way I'm planning it out and to get some feedback/opinions on the future layout.

https://sywtbaiseason15.wixsite.com/universalaustralia

On the link above - the only clickable item on the home page is the Universal Studios Sydney Button. Click on the Universal Studios Sydney button, which will take you to the map of the park, with Red's logos over the updated map that I just finished, including the new attractions and layouts.

Once the user gets to this page, they will be able to click on the various land logos and go to the individual land description pages, with background music on the page to fit the land. (Try clicking on Westeros and Jurassic World to test this out)

Once they are done reading the description, they can click a 'back' button at the bottom of the page, which brings them back to the park map page.

The top So, You Want... title in the header, is clickable, and takes you back to the main home page. (I'll include a little instruction of that in the site) So if you're at the Universal Studios park map page and want to go back to the main page to visit another area of the resort, you can click the title to head back

-- While it's a bit late and I have to get up in the am, I had an idea of having the entire resort map be in the main page, and having the buttons be over the locations in the resort, along with a brief 'dedication' preamble above the map.

Let me know what you think!:)

evil dead - dead by dawn [ original evil dead, will feature evil dead 1 and 2,]
universal palace theater grand reopening
phantom of the opera
the fly - be afraid
tucker and dale vs evil
