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

[soyouthinkyouknow]

I'm just not understanding where you come up with the 2,700 number, unless you're aware of the exact length of the track, down to the foot. If you're basing your calculations on "ride time," they're probably off, because ride time doesn't always equal cycle time, especially in the case of FJ where I strongly suspect there will be separate load and unload areas. In that event, the ride time figure you've heard would likely be the time a passenger is actually experiencing the ride, not the amount of time it takes for a ride vehicle to pass the same point on the track twice (cycle time)

I fully understand your point. We can disagee, but it doesn't mean I'm wrong. There is lots of math that goes into the rounded off numbers...no big deal, I was just sayin'. That's all.

On another note, I sure would hate to wear the hats they have to wear in Broomsticks! Talk abotu miery on a hot July day!

Also, where is the video that has Thierry Coup standing in the Dark Arts Classroom... the one where the door closes. It isn't on the Universal Media site.

Yeah it wouldn't be this one wasn't released by uni http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09xgPVMYf_8

Thank you. Yes, that is what I wanted to see. However, is there a way to turn off the green note that shows up over it on the left? The left is where I wanted to look at something.

universal really made a mistake in not doing softs yet

 

[youhow2]

No they are letting anticipation build up. It's perfect...



Im thinking we'll all be having a taste of some good nice hot warm and buttery soft pretzels soon though. I like cinnamon sugar, how bout you guys? Im thinking next week for sure...

Those hats are cool. I do like the chef's hat too.

It was a great video, I wonder why Universal didn't post. I know we have seen about 50% of the video already but there were some interesting shots in there.

I dont like the fact that they painted the flags. I liked them looking clean better.

Does anyone have any interesting blueprints of the ride or the vehicles they want to PM me? I'm tired of waiting for this ride to open. And honestly FJ is the only interesting aspect of the WWoHP, besides the food.

I know that we have talked about this before but a real owl in hogsmead would be awsome. I would cry !!!!!!!! That will truly be amazing better than having fake snow.

Yeah... about 250 members of this board have blueprints of every facet of this new world, Hogsmeade, Hogwarts, the FJ ride... I am sure any one of them will send them to you... they are such common knowledge... or you might check your local library... go to the blueprints section. Major theme parks love to post their blueprints for 100 million dollar projects for everyone to see. AND yes... I am being very sarcastic.

Ah thank you so much for that ^

I meant something similar to that one of the alleged layout or the line drawing of the vehicle...things that were somehow obtained. maybe another worker will leak a cell phone pic soon

Where there's smoke there's fire...Some people have smoke and I'd assume they have fire...you seem to have smoke Teebin.

I actually really like it. The more rustic, weathered feel to them is just another subtle touch that matches with the art direction of the films.
