[ThemeParkStop]

This wraps up our Everything Epic Universe series, but be sure you're subscribed to see what we learn next about this new theme park!

[gyarados]

It still feels odd that the land is based on wizarding France but the main ride is set in London; perhaps the entrance to the ride will still be the French Ministry, but inside are floo powder fireplaces to various Ministries around the world, and our queue takes us to the British one.

[bobbyswanson]

i’m confident in this land despite the worries. the way universal brings harry potter to life hasn’t failed me yet and id always be excited for more of it.

[TheBeefTrain]

We need that Avatar style ride where we fly on a broomstick. It would be outrageously popular and fulfill a lot of childhood dreams.

[monochromaticempress]

I'm so ready for this! Two years ain't nothing for being able to experience all these new lands!

[leizuk]

I have to say this is one of the best if not THE best coaster/park series I have seen on youtube! So well done and thank you so much for the great info!

[morbius]

I'm so hyped for this area. Perhaps with the France theme we might get some AMAZING food locations!

[seeyoucu]

This was great. I appreciate all of the work you all do for this series. Thanks so much.

Universal needs to add a ride based on Ron's Flying Ford. Either in Fear Factor spot or Epic Universe.

I know this land is supposed to set in Paris but I really want it to include a Kowalski Bakery. The Bakery would fit in with the land as it makes baked goods that look like fantastic beasts. The only problem is that Jacob Kowalski is a muggle from New York so it might be odd to have one of his shops in magical Paris. In April last year to promote Secrets of Dumbledore they had a couple of pop-up Kowalski bakeries in various cities around the world and I was so bummed I didn't get to go to any of them.

I still wish the Ministry was kept next to Diagon Alley, if only to keep everything Harry Potter connected and maybe free up space in Epic Universe for something else.

[TheDudeAbides]

Thank you for all these videos—I have anticipated each one and they have not disappointed! Please keep the epic universe updates coming after this!!

[jmr]

Of all the lands, this one worries me the most! It seems a little disjointed and I'm curious if the expansion pad will ever be planned considering the IP itself is so contentious right now

[Nojintt]

I'm glad to see the Wizarding World getting a full scale indoor show.

[LMGVids]

Thank you so much for this series, it’s so exciting to see what’s coming to Epic Universe!

[theronlanghorne]

I am very interested in how the public will receive this particular area of the park. It's particularly interesting how Universal has decided to utilize the Parisian landscape and Fantastic Beasts' creatures, yet the story of the setting still focuses on the Harry Potter franchise and not the Fantastic Beasts franchise and characters. I think it sounds incredible! I can't wait to see the architecture and I would love to see the French Ministry of Magic sometime in the future. Goes to show how well admired the work of environmental artists has become in creating alternate worlds. The world of Fantastic Beasts is superior to its own story!

[skywardlp]

This land certainly has a lot of headwinds: A third Harry Potter land does mean the novelty is wearing off quite a bit, and the shuffling around of the land's attractions and setting does make it feel a lot less cohesive compared to the rest of the park. I think the decision to stick with Paris is still the right call, it'll make it distinct from Diagon Alley, using the Floo Network to go to the British Ministry still makes immersive sense, and I think the shops and theatre options will still ensure that this land has a proper Fantastic Beasts/Parisian flavour.

[AdventuresWithParker]

I was never overly excited about this land before, but now I'm actually super invested! A story starring Umbridge would be super intriguing, and I love that the "giant murderous carousel" might make its debut stateside lol. I'm a little disappointed to not be getting a flying broomstick ride anymore, but I think it's smart to bookmark some space for future expansion. Thanks for sharing these deep dives, Alicia!

[LChatmanFL]

Another great video! Definitely the BEST place to come for EU updates!! Also, given UO's track record of succes with the HP franchise, I am sure this land will be "Fantastic." Lastly, maybe the VR was removed because they want something more kid friendly? Like maybe something with the animals from Fantastic Beats, a walk through mini land like Camp Jurassic?

[kentslocum]

This has been a great series of videos! Thank you so much for the hard work and research you put into these videos!

I think I echo many theme park fans when I say that I wish the Harry Potter area was built in Universal Studios Florida next to Diagon Alley instead of at Epic Universe. Then it could be geographically connected to the London area.
