So if I'm primarily interested in USF/IOA history/behind-the-scenes chronicles, skippable?

Leaves you wanting more and will make you miss USF. I definitely wouldn’t skip it tho very well done.

I booked Atlantic at 9:45 for a day when epic currently closes at 8. Should I have hope park hours will be updated when the calendar turns to December?

Hooray! The hours ARE updated to 10!

Hooray! The hours ARE updated to 10!

And New Year’s Eve now closes at midnight instead of 10.

Will they use Victoria Frankenstein's Manor going electrical or The Burning Blade bursting into flames to mark the start of the new year?

 

[Patrokls]

If you get a chance to go to Epic when the park closes early for a private event go for it. The park closed at 7pm yesterday and the wait times were fantastic.

I’m just now on episode 3 of the doc. I’m honestly shocked as to why SNW is barely featured (if at all) in this entire doc. Anyone know why??

 

[NotPennysBoat]

Guess I need to watch as well.

Simple answer is Nintendo may not allow backstage access for the land, and/or, there’s no need to advertise the most popular land at the park and promote Monsters and HTTYD more.

Also, SNW has already been open for a few years in 2 other parks and was the only land that wasn’t new and fully unique, so there wasn’t anything “new” to show. I was kinda surprised, but it does make sense. They showed enough of it to know that it’s part of the park.
