Kind of an easy call, but nevertheless, I predicted this! Man I can't wait!

Oh, why does it have to be in Florida? That doesn't match the weather I always expected for Harry's world at all.

I agree I mean put it in Seattle at least ... Ah well... powers that be that has the money makes the rules.

Hopefully it'll be cool... but it's guaranteed not to be cheap! So parents and Potter fans... start saving your dimes and nickels. :roll:

This reaks of awesomeness, i will definitely be hitting that up when it opens.

I think it's going to be included in the park admission to Islands of Adventure. So, no extra charge, AFAIK.

Well as it's supposed to be opened in 2009 I wonder if the powers that be are going to try and gear the grand opening with the release of the 6th or Final HP movie. They do that and oh yeah business will be a booming!

Wonder if they'll have quiddich? Wonder how they'll do it?

Will they be selling Polyjuice potions? Yuck!

Heh, I never posted my comment on this...

If they ever do a world premier of a HP movie at this park, I will definitely drive the two hours to be there!

I wonder what Disney will put out to compete. I would think that this one park will create HUGE demand for Universal.
