"Now there is some total BS in the link, but there was a rumor of blending the parks with Diagon Ally being at Uni Studios with the Hogwarts express connecting the two."
Wow, you called it back in 08 :thumbs:

Amazing how much from that one single page actually came to fruition.
Also this:
"A portion of Lost Continent at Islands of Adventure has been closed as work progresses on Universal Orlando’s Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Guests will use a newly created bridge to walk between Lost Continent and Jurassic Park. Specific attractions and venues affected include The Flying Unicorn attraction, the Enchanted Oak restaurant and The Dragon’s Keep store. Dueling Dragons will remain open."
They were awfully quick to announce what was going on back then. There still hasn't been a formal announcement about what happening over at the former Jaws site has there?
I love all the comments about how so sure some of those posts were about Jaws not going anywhere!
Man, those were the days... I don't think that thread can ever be beat.
You called it! :rep: Also, you pioneered the chopper movement! :rep: And you like Pink Floyd! :rep: :rep: :rep:
You, sir, are what I call totally awesome! :rep:
Anything new with The Shrieking Shack rumors from part 1 that was going to take over part of LC?
Do you recall where you heard the train connecting the two parks rumor? Probably a source that cannot be named. But you must have been under the bed of the head UC VP that left for Disney in the middle of WW development.
I fond it entertaining in that thread that on page 16 Disneyhead said he had no sources. My how things have changed....
Well I started reading the thread from the beginning but I really don't have the patience to read the whole thing
ha, I remember how when you left the computer for a few minutes you would come back and see several more pages. Asking a question was difficult though as it would just get buried, of course I only asked the questions towards the end when I signed up.
I am a master at scrubbing the internet!
But when you live in West Virginia, there is little else to do. But now that I live in Orlando, I am downright dangerous!

Looks like they are redoing the rock. Not surprising. I usually takes them 2 or 3 attempts to get rock work right.
What was the deal around SAS? I saw some post about him leaving and owed and apology and stuff. Was he an insider?
Glad they're re-doing the rock piece on the stage. It was hideous. I hope once this is done they also get rid of the potted trees... They're fine to cover the area under refurbishment, temporarily, but for the finished look... Not a good look.
