[germancastro1000]

Thumbs up if your watching it in 2011 after it opened.

[Suiradify]

[leanneDCfan]

omg i really wanna go here but cant

[weby113]

ahhh fun time the castle ride is realy the movie itself w u in it its amaizing!!!!!!!!

[Bartsudz99]

It looks like they started on the castle before Hogsmede. They finished the castle in Janunary 2010 rite?

[JCdrummer11]

I went there in august it was epic I love the forbidden journey!!!!!

[hommie1988oner]

i went to disney and universal/islands of adventure over the summer!! the wizarding world of harry potter was AAWWESSOOMMM!!

[adobelovr]

i went there and the inside is great even the ride inside of it i mean everything is perfectly done even the moving and talking pictures

[jefreeisminebitch]

this is boring

[255r]

it opens on june 18

[Mrspacemountain2]

Are they going to put something about the flying car? Please tell me, because the flying car is my favorite thing in Harry potter.

[omgwhatafag]

im an animator,pilot,steam engineer and coaster geek (not rly a geek...)

and im rly impressed with universal studios on there work...they have won advantage for this update...unlike disney with space mountain...

[siattisc]

the black steamtrain in universal is a spitting image of the one in back to the future 3 i should know i've seen the film lmao

[siattisc]

its just a shame that dueling dragons will be dragons revenge and not a new ride

[TheDreadnaughtBand]

its the Dragon Challenge and its a famous coaster and too expensive too build a new ride

[sammyb1929]

the hogwarts express is the spitting image of the one in the movie i should know i am a railway enthusiast

[omgwhatafag]

if you where then you would of said was type of engine it was...the engine was "The Flying Scotsman".its a 4-6-2 A3 type engine that was ran by the british railways in the early 1900,s . the train got its name by its speed and was the 1st steam engine to go over 100 mph also...the train was used in the movies and thats how it is most known till this day!... the engine at the park isnt real (duh).it has a steam powered whistle and isnt the same engine used in the B.T.T.F ride at uni studios FL

[cptyanni]

Damn the castle isn't live-sized...

[omgwhatafag]

i know...2 things they copied from disney. walts idea to do that to his buildings+ the castle

[kaplonkmoo]

wish they had this in spore. argh.

[Hamstergirl71]

I'm more of a Disney person, but this looks cool..I'll be checking it out September 2010.

[TheDreadnaughtBand]

they said universal and disney were trying at first trying to sell the park to the too and universal won

[cometcoastin]

Agreed, this is going to kick some serious booty and it does not matter that Florida is tropical or not. You will be so amazed with the themeing that you won't be worrying about some palm trees off in the distance

[murphscousin]

I hope it opens in March April or before May 14th because I'm moving back to Arizona from working at Disneyworld then and I won't get a chance to see it :(

[TomOkkaTom]

I dont like the snow! Its Floirda! I think it totaly destroys the atmosphere altough it looks good but just not right... :(

[sailorV124]

Well, the atmosphere isn't supposed to be Florida. It's supposed to be Hogsmeade

[TomOkkaTom]

just saying fake snow and a 100° Fahrenheit don´t really match...

[ZidaneDaMan10]

who gives a shit if it doesnt match. its going to be awesome and once you go therr, you wont even be thinking about the snow being mixed in with the hot weather

[plops192]

when's it gonna open?

[AttractionsMagazine]

Some time in Spring 2010.

[MileyCyrusRocksss]

@plops192 It opens June 18th 2010

[YoIrishYo]

@plops192

June 9 i think

im going its going to be awesom

[ThanatosPhoenix]

I think the Hogwarts Castle looks cool, but I am a fan of Cinderella's Castle as well as Sleeping Beauty's in Disneyland.

[bigdawg1181]

Give me Cinderella's castel over that one anyday.

[pablinho1996]

POPO

[krazykobra29]

excited!!!

[ThanatosPhoenix]

Well, it is better having it here...... all the money from it will probably go to J.K. Rowling anyway......

[CheeseyConstipation]

This isn't turning out as good as I'd pictured it... But still, it's Islands of Adventure so I know its still going to be amazing.

[cortizch]

genialll¡ espero que para marzo del 2010 ya este listooo¡¡ porque ese mes voy para alla wiiiiiiiiiiii

[stpgg34]

[MrMikiyan]

[TheHalfBloodPrince7]

amazing

[jojobolten]

Cool!! I didn't know about it ^^

I'm definitly going there in my vacation!

[RandyHaddock]

Thank you so much for these updates!

[davidcrazyrides]

why are people ride the rides why its all not done and opened yet

[Simplayer1]

Because those rides were there alredy before the constructuion of Harry Potter Land. This place looks so tight that It will be hard to walk by when it opens.

[davidcrazyrides]

ooh right so they like testing them but don't theme parks use dummie first before thery open the rides and the park

just one thing where is this park coz them rides don't not look like small uk ones they look big american ones

[roxyisbreakingout]

its in orlando, Florida

[davidcrazyrides]

well thats crap then coz should be here where it should be

[Jmadiso1]

except even the movies are American made. Setting doesnt usually mean as much as money.

[Simplayer1]

The rides are openg alredy LOL they opened in 1999 when the park opened. Those ries had a different theme before harry potter, now with the change of theming they still open but it will be with harry potter theme. The park is located in Orlando, Florida in US

[TheDreadnaughtBand]

they are adding a few new rides

[Simplayer1]

yep, but not closing the ones that are there.

[ZidaneDaMan10]

the rides to the harry potter theme park are already open? are they going to have new rides?

[Simplayer1]

No the new rides of Harry potter land are not open, yes they will have. But only the new ones are closed the old onesstill open.

[ZidaneDaMan10]

how do they have old rides for this harry potter land if its new?

[Simplayer1]

Because Harry Potter land is replacing an existing land that was there alredy. It is called The lost continent, look for it on google.

P.S. also look for dueling dragons

[Spac3man88]

Actually they are just transforming the actuals rides! Like dueling dragons will be Dragon challange like in the fourth movie and The Flying unicorn - The Fly Of The Hipogrift and The hidden i dont know what thats about that castle is a trip around the areas of the castle thats all the new in rides but is gonna be great anyway.

[Simplayer1]

Look for Dueling Dragons on the internet, =D

[Gheroe20]

Looks!!!!!!!!!! Incredible!!!! I cant wait for this!!! Hogwarts Castle begins to looks great!!! days, i dont know, now looks more big! I can wait, thanks for post this.

[winterstorms88]

Awesome video! Can't wait to go here, returning 24th may for three weeks. Just hope it's open by then!

[lordjin]

Good choice of music by the way. The people that are working over there are doing a really excellent job.

[AttractionsMagazine]

Thanks! Compliments are always appreciated. And we agree, the Wizarding World is really starting to come together nicely thanks to many talented workers.

[zeekslider]

I hope they plant more trees on the Jurassic Park side, becuase that will look weird if they don't.

[caritower]

va re adelantada a

comparacion de cuando la vi!!

no puedo esperar!

[iDonknee]

so excited! can't wait. :)

[WillyM79]

lol that's a lot of scaffolds

[KittyLovesTofu]

true, the name is not the best choice, but just imagine how amazing it would look, when it's redecorated. It's amazing already, just wait til it gets better :3

[whatever11death]

Whats that song?

[AttractionsMagazine]

Both songs are by Kevin MacLeod at Incompetech. The first is called "Private Reflection" and the second is "Frost Waltz."

[Bleachfan241]

Cool Video but whats with the scary music? : )

[AttractionsMagazine]

I thought it sounded Potter-esque and it's definitely more interesting than the random crowd noise that it replaced.

[urbanwarrior]

Would you know the scheduled completion date?

[plops192]

Somewhere in 2010. Sorry idk the date

[AttractionsMagazine]

The only official timeframe that Universal has released is an opening in "Spring 2010." Nothing more specific has been given yet.

[Guitarplayer219]

I think the renaming of Dueling Dragons (Fire and Ice) to a Harry Potter theme is just stupid. Makes it sound less frightening and intense.

If they change the queue as well I'll be really ticked because that's one of the best queue lines I've ever been in.

[plops192]

Agreed. It would make the ride sound less fierce.

[Bmehlrose1]

i agree.

[sailorV124]

Ah yes, I will miss the queue if they change it up too much.... It was one of my favorites as well
