This was the best I could do, it's not high-res but it might tide you over till someone provides a better copy. It's a screen grab from the downloaded initial movie.

What I didn't like about the webcast was how it felt like they weren't prepared. I'm sure the land is going to be immersive but they said the word "immersive" like 50 times. There are other ways to describe things. Its kinda sad how Disney can make a better announcement about some benches than Universal about a new land.

can someone could captured the video of Kightbus just before the website
I wish to do it by myself but all i have now is an beautiful list of number

I will upload it somewhere, just a sec.

Whats the shop between the Daily Prophet and ollivanders? I can't quite read the sign. I know its prob a false front, but I'm intrigued still. lol

I believe you are speaking of Scribbulus which will be an actual? walk in stationary store... I think that is what was said.

I'm finishing a surprise for you guys right now...

Oooooooo I'm loving all this right now! :doggie: Not a HP fan but I'm excited none the less.

I haven't been able to view the interactive walk-through either but Inside The Magic have uploaded a video of it on Youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9p8sPfA09Q

Talk about a tiny entrance n'all. :look:

My people of OU, I give you Diagon Alley. Click the map for the full size. :thumbs:

 

[Panagiota]

Any word on how thrilling the new ride is going to be? Height requirements?

 

[jtsalien]

Beautiful work as always Gambit!! Very useful :thumbs:

 

[novawildcat18]

Gambit, that's incredible, thank you! Nice to see it all labeled and put together. My favorite part is "Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts" in classic HP font. Makes me remember the good old days of the first time seeing the new movie logo.

Jim Hill toured the construction site yesterday and calls it the new gold standard of theme park design.

Woah.

Anyhoo, absolutely thrilled with the announcement of all the details. I'm looking forward to every nook and cranny of this place.

I'm wondering if we won't see another unannounced shop over near the right hand diagon exit. The blueprints definitely suggest there is a shop there at least as big as WWW. I assumed that it was the Quidditch store or Magic Menagerie, but after looking back on the vid, you appear to have them in the right location. I didn't watch the webcast, so I'm just going off the various reports and pdfs linked from here. So what other shops are we missing?

For anyone who wanted the initial video from /harrypotter featuring the Knight Bus:

I love how ambitious everything is with the theming. It truly is unlike anything a theme park has ever tried in a long time. It's universals's New Orleans square:drool:

Scribbulus

I feel like a skipping record.

Boy, ain't UniversalOrlando.com a MESS tonight... all screwed up, failing to load. It's almost as if todays news was big.

Wiseacre’s Wizarding Equipment might be pretty big. They sell everything a young wizard might need to attend Hogwarts; star maps, cauldrons, compasses, time-turners, etc...

What's going to be in the Owl Post? It seems to be a fairly large building.
