How are they going to do the "walk through brick wall" illusion. Is it going to be a hologram or just walk around a brick wall?

I'm not sure yet but if it's anything short of amazing I'll be very disappointed..

The brick wall onto the platform is actually one of the effects I am looking forward to the most out of the entire expansion. What an iconic moment they'll have a chance at replicating! I hope it's done well. If anybody has an inside on how they plan to execute it, any details would be nice
 
This is a behind the scenes from the movie.
This video shows what we are going to see inside the joke shop. It also shows some details of Diagon Alley. Its a very cool video, check it out.

First WWoHP will take over IOA, then US, then THE WORLD!

We can live in hope mate. Id certainly like to see a MoM though. That would complete the land I think oh and that Quidditch pitch ride that never happened. It screaming for a roller coaster. I know theres some Quidditch experience in the Castle (not been so please don't spoil) but a ride dedicated to Quidditch would be epic!!!

This picture shows exactly how they will be able to erase the show building from the horizon. Look at the height of the trees and then scan right to the show building. (I know that there aren't trees there now, but I expect there will be)

What bothers me most, is on the far left, that Fresh Lobsters sign or whatever it says from the Amityville themeing on that tower next to Kings Cross. It doesn't seem like good theme continuity there. I hope they kinda paint over the sign or something.

Well, there really isn't any continuity between NYC and San Fran. Just keep in mind that Ireland and England have nearly the exact same species of cold water lobster living in their waters. And they eat them too.
 
Here are some pictures from over the weekend. I tried to take a few on Dragons, and those 2 were the best I got. As you can see, some white globe lights were added to Kings Cross entrance. Enjoy!

Stumbled across something I thought was pretty cool.. 6 minutes in David Yates (the director) is talking about Gringotts conceptually for the movie and says that people in his staff were communicating it all to Universal way back then... Check it out good footage as well! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbjG5TmUuDE#t=352

They've had this in the works since before Phase 1 opened. :lol: Good to know.
 
I've been eyeing that letter for a while now. I'm assuming that it's an "H" and that the folds in the plastic are just very misleading. But everytime I look at it, it still looks like an "N." :lol:

Looked like a "N" the first time I saw it too, but if you look closely to the top left and bottom right of the letter there is a protruding lip that doesn't appear on the N further up. I think it is a H but agree the plastic appears to make it look like an N.
