Exclusive Wizarding World of Harry Potter interview with Art Director Alan Gilmore

[tabbeee]

we met him wednesday night at the vip grand opening event :)

[CosplayCore]

Hold the phone... FLY?! :'D OMG!!! Are we going to be seated on brooms?! That was something I SO wanted to do when I go there this summer!!!! <3 I sure hope he means we get to be seated on broomsticks in the ride!!! :3

[Hieagandaus]

I'm going there on a field trip May 19th I hope there's a soft opening then!!!

[McCracken257]

wow if the star will be there. that will really make tons of people go to the opening.

[tabbeee]

@McCracken257 they were almost all there all week and youd be really lucky to just see them around. there were too many people and they had body guards. they didnt "meet" people so it kinda sucked. but i guess it was nice to know they were within a mile from you.

I agree this is going to be cool! I hate how everyone is say "the harry potter park", its not its own park its a themed section inside the Islands of Adventure theme park.

[geekstar9]

No ride mechanism?? I thought it was the new robot arm..

[Moonpies]

@geekstar9 - Of course it's the robotic arms. He is simply saying that the ride is more about the experience than the mechanism. He also can't divulge a lot of details, yet.

[zippitydoodahhday]

@Moonpies Right right, it's supposed to be more about "look it's harry potter and I'm on a journey with him" rather than "look at how fast and how many loops this ride does!"

[payneproductions100]

they spelled there wrong...

[AttractionsMagazine]

@payneproductions100 Oh no. How embarrassing. Ooops.

[iwantorlando05]

I can't wait to go to this park!!!! It's going to be amazing!!! I love that they get JKR's approval, so the park will be 100% authentic.
