Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Construction Discussion

Reverse is a go.

Drop track I don't think so, unless it's hidden in the building, which is possible.

Not so sure about any forest anymore.

If there’s a backwards launch I think we can safely say no motorbike.

Big Thunder has drops.

I'm not talking drop size just how the majority of the ride is close to the ground with small humps and turns. As well as how themed the ride is.

Hmm... there's a few possibilities...

Hedge maze would be cool

Well damn... If we're going through the hedgemaze, all bets are off. We can actually end in the graveyard...

Interesting about the forest - are we looking at more of a grand tour of outdoor harry potter experience - quidditch, shrieking shake, maze, boat house, forest area, etc all in one ride experience?

Genius. Pure genius. One of your best gifs ever. :thumbsup:

I believe that’s a meme, not a GIF.

no surprise this came from the guy who doesn't own a smartphone :tongue:

A scene with the Ford driving by would actually be pretty neat.

One thing that bugs me about the idea of this attraction being outdoors is light. In the movies/books, literally almost every scene in the Forbidden Forest is in perpetual darkness. And most guests will be experiencing this in the blazing bright Florida sun. That seems so off to me.

even though Alicia hinted it may not be the forest anymore, but here's one scene where it's pretty bright:



Most of the scenes are completely dark because they went into the forest at night.

Taking the maze route would be very interesting - they could retheme the current station into the quidditch stadium - which would fit well with hogsmede, Hogwarts castle and Hagrids hut.

I think somebody has mentioned Quidditch Stadium somewhere else in this thread

...What if the Queue, IS the hedgemaze? That'd..be quite something.

I'm not sure about the inside queue, but the outside looks to be the same as it used to be.

Other than a few extra switchbacks behind Hagrid's Hut where the old metal detectors were, I swear it's all exactly the same leading into the building.

Sometimes you get the front seat. Sometimes you end up back in Hogsmede.

Quick analysis.

This is curious.

It's this from the water plans.

@Disneyhead those images aren't showing up for me, but is this what you were referring to?

Looks like a tunnel* in the water maps where I put the red arrow:

EDIT: *thanks @AliciaStella, that's what I meant.

Not a bridge. Small building.

EDIT: Rather a short tunnel or covered space on way into small building to be more accurate, I believe.

......Yes, the last person on earth living life like it should be lived. :tongue: I can actually enjoy and experience queues and rides without having my face stuck looking at a tiny screen on a tiny phone. ..FREEDOM!!!...and no one can bother me all day, texting and calling constantly. ...Love it.....and more time for drinking. and actually "talking" to friends and others. :thumbsup:

Two things. One, if the ride goes reverse or has a drop track it will need to come to a complete stop even if its for 2 seconds (Mummy/ Th13teen) and two, are we expecting a Harry Potter & The __________ kind of name or will it be something unique ?

I'm actually expecting to have a unique name. Probably "Expedition Forbidden Forest" or Big Thunder Forbidden Forest?!?

 

[captainmoch]

I expect a unique name for this attraction to avoid confusion with FJ. Save the "Harry Potter and ____" titles for the marquee attractions, and side ones like Hippogriff, the new coaster and MoM have unique names.

If Harry isn't in it I bet it gets a stand alone name.

Yes, it will need to stop for the reverse bit... Hoping we get a cool show scene during the stop, but luckily it still won't be like Gringotts where every scene is a stop.

I've heard a theory on what might be happening at that track switch stop, and if true, it has me extremely excited. I think someone even mentioned it already today in this thread actually.
