Nothing else Harry Potter, not directly anyway....
I believe we'll hear about the replacement for T2 show (Jason Bourne is the rumored replacement), maybe some HHN reveals, maybe a new parade.... And the biggie, Fantastic Worlds theme park... Not sure if they will give full details on the park yet, such as lands and attractions.... I think, if anything, they will include Nintendoland and hub/entrance theme... I'm not sure we'll get full compliment of lands...

I'm not sure Disney feels the need to respond... They are redoing Epcot, so that will practically be a new park (BTW watch for details at D23!!!)... They have Galaxy's Edge opening.... The Star Wars hotel is vertical... 2021 will feature the 50th celebration, maybe lasting into 2022... I think after the 50th, Disney will go into a slight lull... 2023 and into 2024 is Universal's time to shine with their new theme park, possibly new hotel next to the theme park, and new entertainment district much like CityWalk...
By 2025 Disney will be ready to go big again...

Universal is one of the few reasons I may head back to Orlando. However, let's see what they plan to do. I'd like to see more at SeaWorld too, especially without the Killer Whale show.

I believe SeaWorld is getting a coaster... I could be wrong... I really don't follow SeaWorld...

Rumored new park, where is that going in relation to the existing parks/City Walk?
We went for the first time this past May and I'm definitely hooked

The new park will be a few miles down the road... I want to say somewhere between 2 to 4 miles... At a plot of land across from the Convention Center...
Universal released a little teaser about the August 1st announcement simply saying something EPIC is coming.. They put EPIC in bold and caps... I'm thinking EPIC may be the name of the new park.. Universal's Epic Adventures...

Well, you were right about Epic being in the name.

Only cause their announcement of an announcement said something EPIC coming LOL...
Looking at the concept art... I believe we can see Nintendoland, Classic Monsters, one heck of a gorgeous hub... the hotel exiting right into the park, Fantastic Beasts and How to Train Your Dragon... The coaster in the bottom right is a dueling HTTYD coaster... And also, looks like a Pokemon area...
There are also two expansion pads...

I can't figure out what is what. When you are looking at the hotel (which I presume is the giant building in the upper right of the pictures), what is the pretty purplish area in the upper left? That's where I want to go.
I'm still hoping for a Legend of Zelda area.

The problem with Universal is that the IP for nearly all of their attractions is owned by other studios and companies.
Their biggest franchise the The Fast & The Furious. Warner owns Harry Potter. Disney now owns Marvel and The Simpsons and I'm sure they will want to lock down those licenses sooner than later. So what does that leave Universal beside continuing to license from other studios and companies?
I'm super excited for the Comcast Customer Support Attraction! It takes up to five hours to load while putting you through an endless menu of options that you'll never get to experience only to be tortured with terrible support for 90 seconds once on board. Yay Comcast!

I guess I'd have to say the jury is still out on this one. This December's film will mark the end of the third trilogy and effectively the end of the Skywalker story. After that Disney has plans for additional SW movies in 2022, 2024 and 2026. Maybe another trilogy? Maybe three more stand alone titles. I'm sure Disney has already made their money back on SW and will continue to rake in money despite what your vast number of die hard SW fan friends may think. It's a great property to own!

They will continue to make money for a while based on the name alone. I am not sure it will continue for 3 more generations though.

Yep! Pop culture is a relatively recent phenomenon, basically just about a century old. Heck, maybe old Walt even started it with Mickey Mouse in 1928. With Hollywood basically at a loss for new ideas and rock & roll essentially already dead. Professional sports seem to be hanging on despite their dings with politics, officiating and athlete safety. However, it should be interesting to see what our great grand kids interest is in things like Mickey Mouse, Stark Trek, Bruce Springsteen or the New England Patriots. Let alone going to visit a theme park when you might be able to have an even better experience in your own living room. Who knows?

No, it will all change with Zefram Cochrans first warp jump in about 35 years.

Right? Like Disney just making live action remakes or Frozen 2 instead of coming up with new animated movie ideas. How the Cowboys have always been "America's Team", but you mention the New England Patriots. Is Bruce Springsteen even a thing now? I don't hear "Born in the USA" played anywhere. Star Trek will probably live on, unless someone comes along and makes their fans unhappy.

Too late, they've done that.
