So I have been wanting to start this for a while now and figured hey why not. This thread show cases the immense amount of change seen in theme parks when new attractions are built. Whether it be in a vacant lot or taking the spot of a pre-existing structure is extremely amusing to see the actual before and after photos. I tried my best to line up the angles as best as possible to get the full effect but in some cases it wasn't possible due to the photos I have to work with. ENJOY and if you have any add them in!

I've just never been a fan of the films and whether it's a Kuka ride or a spiderman "scoop" style ride...it'll feel like they just copied and pasted from Spiderman/Potter.
