What is going to happen to this seasonal location now that the new USS is open?
Could this become Hello Kitty?

Well clearly "Hello Kitty" did NOT happen here haha...
Anyway, I noticed landscaping changes the other day that I didn't notice before. Here is a pic from 2015
Here is a pic from today...
100% disagree with you. Harry Potter is still new to this park. It’s the biggest IP they have in USH. Two years is nothing. Maybe in 20 years I will understand your argument.^I feel this was an incredibly stupid move on their part. Potter has ENOUGH locations to buy merch already... Hogsmeade, Studio Store & Citywalk... With JPRA now closed until next year, they should've kept it JP/JW merch. This change back was completely unnecessary and quite sad really... Potter should NOT be the focus anymore with merch or the park in general. It opened 2 years ago, move on..
I've always felt that they were severely missing the point of the store ever since it was created.... Feature Presentation could've EASILY been a central hub for HHN merch just like Orlando has a designated store for the event, while also making merch available throughout the park. Then after HHN, convert it over to a Grinchmas merch store. Lunar New Year... whatever new ride opens... etc etc
Nobody cares about the new Grinch filmI mean, they have The Grinch being released in a few weeks, and they could've easily had FP change to be "Holiday" oriented, with The Grinch merchandise primarily released there, regardless of ASS.
I mean, you should tell the people who decided to put themed grinch billboards on the Mummy showbuilding, oriented towards Universal Hollywood that "Nobody cares about the new Grinch film"
100% disagree. Nothing will touch the Jim Carry Classic. This film will fail. In fact, the photo you sent me of the Billboards was funnier then the trailers.I really dislike this. If you want to offer a few staples amongst all merch to sell people headed out the door, fine...
But it really detracts from Potter's overall retail experience.

I think Grinch will likely do well. Illumination seems to have a very good marketing team. Not always a fan of the movies, but marketing is much more consistent than Dreamworks.

Don’t ever trust Deadline lolI'm not stating anything on its quality. Just that it will make money.

Also, I've never really heard the Jim Carry version referred to as the 'classic'. I think you were just the right age at the time to have that close association.
