Personally, I think the bus service is adequate for now.

While I know I'm in the minority, I feel the removal of iconic Universal properties to effectively duplicate the presence of others is a stifle to the variety of the park. Chalk me up as against it.

Separating your themed areas (especially one that is such a huge draw currently) between two parks is not only silly but is going to cause massive flow problems.<br /><br />1. Your going to need a 2 park ticket to see everything. People won't realize this upon purchasing. <br />2.
