Its getting great reviews on Mugglenets forums by quite a few people. And I have talked with a few die hard fans while at the park or waiting in line and the emotion on their faces says it all. My sister is in Shanghai and is a DIE HARD fan and when she comes home in August I am taking her, she hasn't stopped talking about it since I went.
Mugglenet loved it. And as a hardcore fan myself, I felt like I was in heaven when I was there. Going back this Saturday...I cannot wait! I'm bringing my cousin who's never been to Universal. We're going to hit up the rest of the park during the morning and early afternoon and then go to HP at night. I'm surprised (he's only watched the movies), but he seems really excited to see the WWoHP.
This pleases me. I am not an HP fan... but I wanted them to be teary upon entrance or it would have been a failure. Sounds like they pulled it off. This is truly a case of "be careful of what you wish for, you just might get it" for UOR. They are lining up cues with new signs and tickets etc. two weeks after opening. Even they had no idea.
ON ANOTHER NOTE: Hogshead Ale is produced in *drum roll* *be ready to be somewhat shocked* Melbourne, ............................
