I know I've said before I agree.

I again ask the spoiler free people what their limits are because when Ellen airs tomorrow do you nice folks want to even see the inside of the shops? I'm trying to make it safe for all of you so you can still enjoy this topic but I know obviously this pic is a "spoiler" for most that's why I jumped on it to try to get it off. (plus the mods didn't want it on here)

I agree, that picture should not be posted directly on a forum. Universal seems pretty pissed that it even leaked.

Yeah, but it's for Forbidden Journey spoilers. If it has ANYTHING to do with Hogsmeade, Three Broomsticks, Ollivander's, Dragon Challenge queue, FOTH, or anything else WWOHP related we can post lengthy press releases, pictures, trip reports etc. right smack dab in this thread. :P

POed is an understatement it's getting pulled from everywhere UO can call up to get it taken down. This is why the mods took it down we don't want anyone here to get in trouble. I have to get some sleep but I hope & pray people who didn't want to see it don't see it & it gets taken down soon. night everyone & if i seem on edge sue me I care about the nice spoiler free people here.

Forbidden Journey is the big bad ride! Ride spoilers are more essential than Hogsmeade, FotH, or DC.

FotH: A roller coaster family ride. The hippogriff is real and interacts with you and Hagrid's Hut is there. Only spoilish thing may be that Hagrid actually shows up in "Musion" form.

DC: A dueling roller coaster ride.Spoilers include the queue...

Forbidden Journey has EVERYTHING to hide!

I'm sorry if my tone is coming off as harsh, because I'm not trying to be. But why would someone care about FJ spoilers, and not ones from the rest of the land? I'm obviousley not going to imbed a POV video of the ride, but to me spioler warning and maybe white text is enough. Words and reviews are not spoilers becasue they are easy to skip over.

If someone were to explain the whole ride literally in text form right now..THAT is a huge spoiler. It is like spoiling a huge surprise because even though you never saw a POV, you still know everything that the ride is going to offer!

Like for me, I know certain stuff like knowing characters on the ride...but I have NO idea where and when we will be during the ride. That way, every twist and turn will be a major surprise and that makes the 1st ride experience the best it could possibly be. If I know all the info piece by piece, yeah the ride will still be awesome, but it would be far less satisfying.

Yeah, but if I were to explain the ride to you right now, I would warn you with huge spoiler tags before and after. Just skip over it. And for the last time, I see no reason for people who don't want any more spoilers to continue to follow this thread, because everything outside of what's inside FJ is well known.

Before I go to bed quick let me put it this way in THIS TOPIC anything that isn't a press release that is text do a spoiler tag like Mantaguy said. ANY PICS that are not your normal pic updates (like screen caps of Ellen or press pics of the queue) put a spoiler tag letting them know what it is or EVEN BETTER post a link to the pics & not directly put the pic in the topic. Ok night everyone & stay safe non spoiler people

PLEASE EVERYONE DO THIS ON THIS THREAD. And, yeah, pics that are spoilers, please provide a link.

Does anyone have a new general update? Even if there's nothing new, the lack of an update is what causes these arguments.

Well before spoilers were coming out left and right.. the American scenic pics weren't HUGE spoilers? Hello we already know a lot about the ride even if we haven't been on it. Unless it's a POV or a POV description, this should be the thread. FJ is the final frontier, so to speak, of this new world.

Right. This thread has always been about all that is TWWoHP. Why should it change now, when we're so close to seeing this thing come together and amaze us in first person?

Because I am in Americas "Tomorrow-Afternoon", (7:00 on the 2nd of April), hour many HOURS until the SECOND show of Ellen at Universal airs? Don’t say for example "at Five-Thirty" because that would have already been.

Another note, people are saying (because it is located here in the games) that Dumbledores Office is that fat tower beside the Entrance Hall. The windows don’t line up to the rooms in the movies. It is weird because that three towers coming off the main tower are supposed to be Gryffindor common room, yet the office lines up perfectly. This makes no sense because the windows are up to high on the first of the three towers to be entered straight from the moving staircase (this is hard to explain, but pretty much the Fat Lady portrait is supposably floating half-way up the tower). The Courtyard on which Dumbledores office is first seen to be located off has changed from the second film, so originally, what was that fat tower supposed to be? (It is really hard explaining something I don’t understand, but hopefully someone does know what I mean).

To add to this; Do people know how the rooms will transition from one to another? How are we going to get INTO Dumbledores office if we aren’t using the Griffin Staircase, and then out again without COMPLETELY ruining the effect of it being a tower? (Towers don’t have back doors). I saw the Chamber of Secrets Special Features Disk today, and in the “Dumbledores Office Tour”, the fireplace (adjacent to his entry door to the office) is really huge and could probably fit people through it... One thing they COULD do for Dumbledores Office is have the entry through his fireplace, go to the Observation Deck behind his desk and somehow exit from there... It kinda seems closed off up there though…


The same "Tower effect" goes with the Gryffindor Common Room, how will they not ruin this set by having a door to another tower or something. Another thing is will the Fat Lady Portrait be at the top of the Moving Staircase? In the games, there are only two sets of stairs to get from the Seventh Floor corridor to the Common Room, one goes down then straight up again. POSSIBLY they could have some below moving, but the ones the guests walk on (From corridor to Common Room) are stationary? Then once in the Common room we walk through the Fireplace by Floo Powder (where Sirius talked to Harry, twice) back to the corridor? (Where the RoR is)

--- Update ---

I just went on Harry Potter Wiki and they say the towers coming off the main tower is Dumbledores office. Where does the common room fit it?

My next TWO posts showed up but then got deleted! Moderators? In Short; How will they have the transitions from room to room, without ruining the effect? For example Dumbledore's Office. We are NOT entering through the Griffin Statue, what is going to happen? Floo Powder?
