The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hollywood

[Aaron]

The Upper-Lot is going to be a huge cluser without Potter open. It's going to be a fun year but crowds are going to be horrendous.

Potter has not been there before why would it make a difference this year?

 

[Red Carpet]

I wanted Potter to be open to help spread out the crowds. It would help make the lines for the mazes a little more bearable.

Lots of avenues closed which Potter could have opened up, so that's another artery clogged up.

I stopped by the park for a bit today and hopped on Forbidden Journey and I think maybe the second water sprayer (in the spiders scene) is calibrated incorrectly. I know to expect to get a little wet but today I basically took a shower in there. It was an insane amount of water that sprayed us haha.

It's been either a mist or very light when I ride. I noticed when it gets really hot they hit you hard. That cold water is my face is annoying as crud. Maybe that has something to do with it? Would be nice to see that fixed.

I, for one, would rather have the water sprayers turned off for good! You get hit with water on the mummy, on transformers, on DM, on the Simpsons, obviously on JP, and even the studio tour! Flight of the Hippogriff is just about the only thing in the park that doesn't spray you when you ride it!

The best thing about this, if made into reality, is that it's remarkably similar to Disney's original Potter concept.

Why does it sound like to me like something that would make a great Forbidden Forest (or Ministry of Magic) Dark Ride that would be innovative in player choice?

I hope this is kosher on the site  but here ya go http://pimg-faiw.uspto.gov/fdd/10/2016/96/008/0.pdf

Not to worry: it's a US patent document, nothing leaking here!


Anyways: this is more likely to be seen elsewhere than Hollywood at the moment.

if it is potter related and not nintendo with the removal of shrek and that cartoon store closing you think that will be enough space for a 3rd mini ride?

Operationally, it couldn't involve Cartooniversal so I don't believe so. I think if WWoHP would sooner take over WaterWorld (not as Diagon) than Shrek.

Do you think they'll be bringing over the hot butterbeer version by late October?

I've been told that Hot Butterbeer will be sold this fall. It will only be a seasonal item. As far as a specific date, that has yet to be said.

Awesome, thanks so much! I'll be crossing my fingers for it then.

How jerky is Forbidden Journey? My lower back sometimes gets a "kink" in it -- that's how I describe it -- and anything really jarring or jerky can cause me some real discomfort. First I thought I was just going to have to worry about the motion sickness issue that some have mentioned, but my back has become my bigger concern. For reference, I rode Indiana Jones at Disneyland one time when my back was feeling like this and when the family wanted to ride it again, I bowed out because of how jerky it can be. Ugh, this is not good! This will be our first time to visit since WWHP opened. Thoughts please?
