Ahh, forgot to say this before. A song was playing in the DD queue portion that goes through the village. Does anyone know anything about "Do the Hippogriff?"

This was very clarifying and up to date. Thanks for posting. So interesting that this is the way they handled it at load. And I was told that the lights in the distance are really the lights behind you, including the exit sign, meaning mirrored reflections. There is a mirror on the wall behind the load vehicles. SO... the load area and unload area are very very OPEN... and not cloistered. Fascinating and not quite what I expected.
Do you mean the RoR appears to be open because of the mirrors? Or that it's actually open? The station Is long I imagine So I assumed it would be tight...
im really wanting to see the benches with better lighting as I am obsessed with queues and vehicles almost as much as ride The mummy and Tot being my favorite in both categories. And these benches look SWEET ! I love the owl on the headrest...And the size!!! Suspense is killing me
Think of Mummy... now dim the lights to 25%.... and put a mirror on the far wall behind the vehicle load and unload... as well as mirrors on the wall behind you. It is something like that... but otherwise, I have no idea... and really everyone, I HAVE NO IDEA! I just know that it is something like that sorta kinda maybe. However... I know the vehicles are 10-15 feet below load... so how do they prevent you from falling off a moving magic carpet platform into the hole. Hm hm hm.
All this time I've been hearing people say Forbidden Journey is like Spider-Man the ride. Now I look at the screen caps posted and the cast of Harry Potter aren't wearing any 3d glasses on the ride. Is that because the 3d film isn't top-notch yet or because the ride isn't even in 3d? I'm sure the ride will still be good regardless, but what I want to ask is this: Is Forbidden Journey a 3D ride?

I havent seen it but I'll speculate since people are dropping away...Longer because of the need to load quickly as there will be many vehicles...also when they need storage room because of a hold up in loading dock the other vehicles need somewhere to go or people will just stop in the ride awkwardly.
Since you brought this up I wonder if they will have a separate loading area much like Toy Story Midway Mania for guests who require extra time to load.
and i hope this place opens soon cause right now im feeling really messed up by the crap that happened on lost tonight
Well, it's Monday... I'll be at WWoHP on Saturday..... mixed between extreme excitement about just seeing Hogsmeade and anxiety over FJ being ready:look:.... it's gonna be a long 5 days! Breakfast at Three Broomsticks Saturday morning!!!!!!!:happy:
I'm not sure what I'm allowed to say because Universal is being (ridiculously) tight about things, but I'll say this: The track will not be overhead, nor will it be roller coaster style. Think much more "mundane" than that.About the FJ ride itself... I was just wondering if perhaps the track is above with the arm hanging down? I have seen the pics/vids on the robocoaster site, but it looks like it would be just as easy to have the vehicles in any orientation at any time during the ride. Unless someone else has already seen what the actual ride looks like, besides the recent celebs and few unseen ride testers.
The ride could start with the track above and you 'hanging' below, then at some point it could easily corkscrew and then end up with track below you and no one would be the wiser. Any thoughts?
