It will be interesting how they will do RIP this year, so every guide that can will take people to the coaster and then I guess spread out from there and start hitting houses

Guessing it’ll effectively be the first stop right before dinner.

Going on a spinning coaster after filling yourself at a Buffet....what could go wrong

Oof, that is rough. I guess subject to change can mean literally anything, but that seems pretty cruddy to have it as a perk at all if there was any chance it could be removed.

Before dinner.

In fact, assuming the coaster does remain operational for RIP guests (good luck to them if it doesn't), I think that's the only path that makes any real sense. The dinner is generally the first or second stop for most (if not all?) RIP tours, regardless of starting time, which are staggered to of course avoid overwhelming any individual attraction (including the buffet).

Fast & Furious is located directly next to French Street, which is where the buffet dinner occurs. I assume it'll become the first stop, with dinner immediately following, and then the normal flow.

Makes sense that way and will somewhat reward rope droppers at these events. So thats a somewhat positive note

Art being a hidden Acryllic for Hollywood feels interesting. Makes you wonder if other characters could be similarly in a unique element.

Last year we did the Fast and Furious restrooms (for those who needed it) on the RIP, what an upgrade to go on the ride lol. I agree with everyone else, makes total sense to do it first thing on the tour.

Christmas Art makes a lot of sense. I guess all will be known soon. Hopefully, they do something cool in the theatre, and Harry Potter land.

 

[Jerroddragon]

I keep forgetting death eaters could be coming back

Also the faces fest area is still somewhat up, so wonder if that’s just for next years fan fest or HHN this year

 

[downunder]

^Here's hoping. Would be awesome if they had a little forbidden forest walk-through, probably a stretch but I'm happy to be surprised.

 

[highdefrex]

Instead of searching for a Hippogriff like at Fan Fest, guests are taken into the Forbidden Forest to help look for something that’s killing unicorns and come face-to-face with Quirrell/Voldemort.

Midsummer Scream Preview Night is underway, and the Universal booth will have multiple photo ops for the various IPs being at the event this year.

For preview night specifically, they debuted the prosthetic look for Pinhead, with Hamikuma also out for photo ops.

I don't know if they really deserve brownie points for not doing the scummy thing they were trying to do but it's better than going through with it.

at the MSS booth—they are offering “Tickets” at a booth in the main Universal booth, and in the center of it seems to be a singular clown with black cuff and a tattered glove.
