I'm guessing it'll be FJ and Hogsmede. No Hippogryff, no Dragons.

Where are those rumor-mongering Sandhill Cranes when you need them????

 

[AcidPop]

Being a hardcore Potter fan myself, IF the two parks differ from each other significantly, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of fans make a point of going to both.

I think it's too soon to have another WW anywhere else. Can we focus on the fact that we've barely had this park open for a year! Focus on this park for now Universal... Please...

I would laugh so so hard if all this turns out to be like a Journey into Narnia at DHS

From Screamscape:

(12/2/11) While the overall theme of every rumor regarding Phase 2 of the Wizarding World is that it’s a sure thing… the one factor up in the air was the ‘when’. When will the construction start? According to new rumors starting to flow through the park staff, construction walls could go up for the first phases as early as February 2012.

With the various news sources all aflutter about the reports of a Hollywood version of the Wizarding World being finalized over the next week or two, it would only make sense to get those same people at Warner Brothers to sign off on Phase 2 of the Orlando attraction at the same time, don’t you think?

So remember those rumors of Jaws being replaced by Potter 2.0?

Don't seem too far fetched now, do they?

 

[Vyrus]

Yeap thats unfortunate that we lose such a great attraction like Jaws.

 

[JungleSkip]

Been told Potter will be replacing Jaws, this time from a different person (@joebillmatt) than the first person that told me that.

Also, food for thought...what if the Wall Street Journal was mistaken, and just assumed the Universal Studios park Potter was going into was Hollywood?

 

[Vyrus]

Now the msg boards are going to blow up with the speculation of Potter going into Jaws, and will there be a train connecting the 2 parks, and how they will check if you have a 2 park pass for both areas and just a whole lot of logistical stuff is now going to get the gears going.

A teebin riddle!

 

[jtsalien]

A teebin riddle!

I'm assuming that refers to the mystery behind the potrait. As in there is something right in front of us we're not seeing.

 

[Teebin]

Not a riddle. Just a statement.

 

[jtsalien]

Not a riddle. Just a statement.

A statement that what's coming will be a masterpiece?

The image goes hand in hand with my very last and very short post before it. About four days ago.

 

[Vyrus]

What kind of statement? That what Uni is doing with phase 2 will be legen...wait for it....dary just like the Mona Lisa?

Just curious, I know you have sources.. do you work in Universal yourself or do you have friends that do?

 

[jtsalien]

I think it's just an "I know something you don't know" kinda smile he was going for.

 

[Octobers Fade]

If Potter is effecting the Studios they might as well just go ahead and make it and IOA one park.
Potter has already taken two rides, now possibly three?
