Wizarding World - Diagon Alley Discussion - Part 2

The tide is rolling in!

Platform 9 3/4 looks more and more incredible from every angle we see it.

From Bonnie Wright's twitter @thisisbwright:

EDIT:

From the HarryPotterFilm Instagram account:

Borgin and Burkes

Wonder if the actors are riding Gringott's today.

I've never really had a head for math or science, but Hawking has always been someone I admired.

A Brief History of Time is the only 'non-fiction' science book I've read straight through. I was was bouncing in my theater seat when I saw that Alfonzo Cuaron had slipped it into The Prisoner of Azkaban

Daily Stone Roses performances would infinitely increase my interest in Diagon Alley.

I would be surprised if they weren't.

Those supplies upstairs look mighty purchasable...

I thought the same; it looks too well stocked with things that look like actual products rather than shelf theming for us not to be able to get up there IMO. Borgin and Burkes looks amazing, as predicted! Some of that stuff looks great.

Edit - having looked on a computer, I'm not so sure again. Who knows!

 

[freediverdude]

Well wait a minute, if the VIPs are riding the ride today, how bad can the technical glitches be, lol.

Really getting excited here. It's always the final push and little details that turn these things from ho-hum to sheer excitement. Lots of little details we weren't fully aware of.

If there are issues it's just that they aren't running all of the vehicles yet. SDMT was the same where they could certainly take people on the ride, but you can't throw open the thing if you are still only capable of operating a few vehicles at once.

According to what I've heard you won't be able to go on the other floors of the store...

 

[inferi88]

According to what I've heard you won't be able to go on the other floors of the store...

correct, you can only access the 1st floor

correct, you can only access the 1st floor

And from what I have heard... that may be a problem. Let's wait and see what a certain member here tells us regarding the potential issue.

Overheard yellow shirted TMs going over how the lines will work, everything is looking done...I'm thinking those walls are coming down tonight.

 

[TheBlackMamba]

Is June 6th or 7th still a optional date for softs?

 

[Aberforth Dumbledore]

That Borgin and Burkes pic killed me! I cannot wait till we get to see the Magical Menagerie and Wiseacres!

 

[floridakid]

Part of me is extremely glad Universal has kept everything so hidden... These pictures kind of give you a hint at the details within, but there is so, so, so, so, so, so much to see. I'm beyond excited for everyone on this forum who has followed this project and has waited patiently. It will pay off. [HASHTAG]#potterwatch[/HASHTAG]

[Brian G.]
