thanks....looks like Poseiden is on the chopping block? When they mentioned part of LC would be transformed, they showed PF....while mentioning Flying Unicorn & DD would be themed to "fit" to HarryP. land.

I hated the idea at first, then started to warm up to it and got excited even though I've never seen nor read anything Harry Potter.

retheming the Flying Unicorn would work, retheming Dueling Dragons is an absolute disgrace.

They were simply using stock footage of Lost Continent since it was being discussed. Poseidon is staying.

So if DD and Flying Unicorn are both rethemed for Harry, that leaves no "rides" in the Lost Continent, right? We'd have Poseidon and Sinbad, Mythos, games, the fortune teller, and those snarky Time Share people. Am I missing something? The LC will get gutted and the only big draw left for us will be Mythos.

Well, the rides, technically, aren't going anywhere. Nothing is being removed. Other than a bit of a change in theming, the rides are staying and we are getting another one. The old rides will get a face lift and some new surroundings and some new attractions will be put in.

Most of the time with FOTL, we miss the theming of DD anyways.
