Just what we really needed....less shade. :/

Hollywood Grill is currently taking up a lot of room.

Not Character Shop any more.

More trim painting done.

i feel for the team members especially out in the new plaza. Zero shade

 

[Aaron]

Interesting move.

The fact that they are doing this the day before Disneys 60th Anniversary broadcast; makes me VERY curious and excited.

I wonder when this will air?

I got this in my inbox as well....I RSVP 'd, but our passes expired last week.....       I DID ask the question in my response if we could still attend, because it does indicate "Theme Park Lovers"......here's to hoping we can!! 

If not, I'm hoping whomever goes from the boards has a blast!

 

[HalfGlass]

I guess my question is...will they be shooting this inside Wizarding World on Saturday? That would suck....

 

[12th Man]

Oh god....I'm going Saturday and taking someone to see WWoHP. Uh oh. If they are filming in the land, hopefully it is done by later in the day. But it looks like that.

 

[Ryan]

So. They're going to do a WWoHP special on USH's Hogsmeade? (which I can only imagine it is)

Whoever the director he must be really skilled at shooting only specific angles.

Unless they plan on filming at close (7pm), I think we're screwed. It's easy to not let people in, but it's harder to filter them out at some point in the day. Once the land is open, it's open. Close down certain shops and rides sure, but to kick everyone out at midday? I don't see that happening.

 

[12th Man]

If the event is at 10 AM and it lasts 2 hours, they will hopefully open Hogsmeade up by around 1.

That's the hope. However, if they're still doing pickup shots and whatever for a piece, they may keep it closed past shooting the annual pass holders.

 

[12th Man]

I really hope so

Was this sent to ONLY pass holders? Or is this an "open call" for extras?

Has anyone who RSVP'd, gotten a reply yet for the filming this saturday?

Is there any legitimacy to the idea that it might be a film shoot inside the Wizarding World?  Any inside credible sources?  Or is it just the fans in us imagining?  I definitely wanted to go back to the park Saturday for WWoHP.  If they're filming in Hogsmeade I'll sign-up because that'll be fun, but if they're not then I'd rather just shoot for Tech Rehearsals.  They've been filming today and it's still not open to the public yet.  I don't want to NOT sign up and then be stuck on the outside waiting. The decisions!

 

[eivega]

I asked them directly on Twitter and they said filming is taking place on Citywalk itself.  Does that change things for everyone now?

I just spoke with Christina in Guest Relations (?), she checked with her co workers and was told the email replies are going out tonight to those who made it in.
