What if they rethemed the entire park to Harry Potter?

*Sigh* Knew it had to happen sometime. Hearing what WWoHP has indirectly done to the rest of IOA has got me quite nervous about this. Guess we'll have to see how this goes. :?r

Glad to see USH finally gaining more rides. I do think that this will go where the Gibson and WaterWorld are. Hopefully this won't effect HHN in any way.

I still think it's very possible that we'll see the entire upper lot, sans Simpsons, be totally re-worked as Harry Potter. Everything Potterized - Shrek, Waterworld, Terminator, House of Horrors, etc. Gone. All Potter.

While I'm always happy to see a park expand/re-theme areas, this one is not in my top-ten best ideas- at all. For some reason, IoA got neglected following HP's addition there, and I'm wondering if the same thing will happen to USH after HP is opened there.

I'd not be thrilled too much over this- yet.

(EDIT TO CLARIFY)

Are you talking about in terms of maintenance or crowds?

Hulk just got its queue refreshed and Spiderman is getting an upgrade. Doesn't sound like IoA is being neglected to me; that is, if I understand you correctly.

I'm fairly impartial towards to Potter theme park franchise, i like the movies but I'm not really a die hard fan or anything. With that being said I kind of think Potterland fits better at the Studios park than it did at Islands of Adventure, will be interesting to see how this turns out.

This is awful news, especially if it does to USH what it did to IOA. And I don't mean that in a good way.
