Forgive me if this happens to have been posted, but Orlando Sentinel has some cool panoramic 360-degree photos of WWoHP.

That's sick, thanks for sharing! :rep:

Just wanted to throw out there that even though I don't know how long FJ lasted yesterday (I left the area around 5) I did get an E Vac but in the easiest place possible right before the "take off" point at the end of the load platform. I'm just glad I wasn't one bench forward they we stuck tilted up & about 5min. after I got off it was back open. Also I unloaded at the non moving platform & boy is it confusing to get out of there. You have to take the 1st elevator up to the 3rd floor than go down a few hall ways to a 2nd elevator & than go back down to the 1st floor to exit. Could they have not designed it just a bit better?

Any news reports of an over-enthusiastic 16-year-old guy dying some ten times now?

Its the same size of a typical london bus which is 8 ft

Yeah I'm surprised those things don't tip over all the time. They should keep it in the park!

How are crowd control issues? Is the ride working on a more steady basis..or is it breaking down every hour like before.

Thinking of going next week, but want to make sure the damn thing is working before I go..

 

[TSSD]

I think it's been more steady. There have been some minor breakdowns, but not any huge major ones in the past few days.

Just saw that on facebook! I wonder if its just for the grand opening, or is it going to stay? :shrug:

 

[Bryan]

hopefully it stays around for at least a little while

what else do they need it for? it's a prop like most other things in the world

 

[Vyrus]

can anyone post the link to it on either facebook or twitter??

I hope it stays at Uni too! I wonder if it's the only one or one of many... If it's the only one it could either:
- stay here (likely)
- go to the future permanent Harry Potter set exhibit at Leavesden Studios (very likely)
- go to the travelling HP exhibit (slightly likely)

Again, I hope it stays here!! (but of course, moved into the WWoHP)

It is really intended for the GO delivering the celebrities via the service gate near the Unicorn (so I have heard). If it stays for any length of time it won't be in the WW as it doesn't fit the theme. I have no idea whether WB would want/allow it to be on display at Citywalk or the Studios.
