Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Construction Discussion

Stop trying to use logic! It’s a theme park attraction. Also, it has been said. That’s all I’ll say for now.

Oh, god. I was hoping not to have to read all 175 pages, lol. Now my mind is set on figuring this out.
Also, I guess forgot Fawkes, Inferi, Pettigrew as Wormtail, James as Prongs, patronuses (although unless we have Dementors...)

So, it’s the three headed dog for the win... :tease:

I mentioned Fluffy. And it makes no sense. I hope we don't see Fluffy lol.

 

[Imperius]

Maybe Fluffy is in the queue.

 

[LJGonz]

Is it the Three-headed dog?

He’s deep in the castle tho. This is outside.

 

[Teebin]

It is outside only when we are outside. It has already been established there will be a couple of brief interior (lite) encounters. :wave:

AAAAAHHH.... so is the Australian company perhaps doing this robotic? If so, we might look forward to some nice lip snarls and quivers... brow furrows etc.

He was only deep in the castle to help guard the stone which there was no need for after Harry's first year. According to JKR, Hagrid then let him free into the forest until Dumbledore eventually returned Fluffy to his native habitat of Greece.

So there is a canonical time-frame where Fluffy was roaming the forest, and it would only take a quick line of dialogue from Hagrid to explain, if Universal thought too many people would be confused.

I hadn't actually considered having Fluffy in this before, but I think it would make sense, he's is one of the more iconic images from the films that they haven't touched yet for the parks.

Was that in the books?

 

[Imperius]

Yeah just because he was guarding the stone doesn’t mean he is still there.

 

[Felipe]

Ok, Fluffy *would* be cool to see, I admit.

PS: I also forgot to list Crookshanks and probably a bunch of others that will slowly come to mind...

Was that in the books?

I don't think so, but it's been officially written about: Fluffy and other creatures inspired by classical mythology - Pottermore

This is a lot of work to guess one AA character. Why do I feel like we need to get a life?

Except this is me escaping my day-to-day life.

That is the very definition of going to Universal Studios.

 

[Mad Dog]

Oh no, not Universal Escape again. You know what happened to that two decades ago.

If we’re going crazy, and somehow ended up in the black lake, I’d like a mermaid or the giant squid (who was only featured in the books and is probably not likely).

Mermaids and Grindylos

How many AAs we talking total? 5-10? 10+?

 

[Parkscope Joe]

How many AAs we talking total? 5-10? 10+?

Not sure anyone without an NDA knows that.

 

[Mike S]

Not sure anyone without an NDA knows that.

Also let’s not get ahead of ourselves here like early Kong info.

 

[belloq87]

How many AAs we talking total? 5-10? 10+?

We can apply a bit of logical deduction. There are supposedly, what, three (or so) "interior" scenes on the ride, right? While not a guarantee, I think it would be a fair assumption to think that there might be at least one AA in each of those scenes. Plus there have been indications there could be additional AAs along exterior portions, as well.

So I would think 3 - 10 would be the reasonable range. Anything more than that would be the cherry on top.

 

[Mad Dog]

Depends on how substantial the AA's are. Quantity does not necessarily mean quality.....Example: The 4 AA bats on the Kong ride are not 4 times the worth of the excellent Kong AA.

 

[belloq87]

I'd prefer quality.

But I'll take quantity, too.
