The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

[BBPH]

That dd/dc que sounds confusing. Ive never seen it before but how do you get lost in it? Are there like a bunch of random tunnels?

I wouldn't call it confusing just there is one section where you can re-ride this means once you have rode the ride there is a passage joining on to the original queue saving you having to queue up in the entire queue again, now if there is a very small queue when you go through the re ride tunnel and join back on to the queue it can get confusing which way too go i believe there is a very small sign reading 'to the dragons' but can be easily missed and now with the refurb things are just a whole lot worse.

Quarterstaff experience??? Who has a head shot, quarterstaff experience and can speak with a Russian accent??? Who on this forum has serious quarterstaff experience alone?

I hope they have an expert trainer!... This is kinda late in the game don't you think?

Some time ago they had the same audition listed on the auditions page. I am guessing that they did not find quite enough qualified candidates.

Screamscape's pretty late on this one. They have found the 2 Min. potter vid that we had found a few days back. Not sure if they got it from us, either way they didn't credit the find to us.

I think it was BBPH the found the vid. Not "us".

If anyone is looking to get some new angles, and they have some cash to spend (better investment than helicopter rides) you might want to think about one of these.

Good luck getting that past security.

I can see security asking "Whats that?" But that would be a cool angle.

wow. great observation. I knew there was something missing. Thats odd, maybe they just moved it so that they could have better access to the finishing touches they were making with cherry pickers and ladders.

I'm guessing that the Butterbeer cart was only out for some of the publicity (Ellen) and VIP walkthroughs. Since the grand opening isn't happening for another two months, there's no good reason to leave the cart exposed to the elements.

Maybe it was just for Ellan and the Exes from Universal and Warner Brothers.

Good eye I didn't even realize it here.

^You beat me

 

[Vyrus]

Or maybe cause of the rain they moved it out the way so it wouldn't get messed up.

I have a feeling the Butterbeer cart won't be out except for busier times. I'd be really surprised if it was open during softs, especially when you can walk 20 steps and get one from inside Three Broomsticks. Speaking of, is the Three Broomsticks going to be IOA's third full-service restaurant or strictly counter-service?

 

[BJCool]

^counter service

 

[Vyrus]

Its counter service, but based on reports they bring the Royal Feast to your table when you order it because it is too much food for one person to carry I would think.

 

[grizzlybarely]

I figured it was counter-service, but as Vyrus said, that's a lot of food. It might be blurring the line between counter-service and full service.

Also I, completely on accident (truth), made a wrong turn inside the DD/DC queue and ended up somewhere I definitely wasn't supposed to be. If you guys remember the DD queue, I was in the room where you walked around the book. I didn't realize I had made the wrong turn until I came to an archway that they had blocked off with a piece of braced plywood. I got pretty far though. Nothing significant to report, but it did look like they cleaned up a lot of the walls.

Umm...you probably made several wrong turns, bro! You'd have to go upstairs and past the old stained glass windows to get to the book, unless you went backstage (not that I know these things, ah hem...). Either way, brillinat that you didn't get busted, the way Uni's been about this kind of thing lately. So, nothing new, theme-wise?

Thinking back I dont think it was the room with the book. It was that second room you walk through with a circular rail, if that makes sense.
