No Island of Adventure is the name of the park that they are building the Harry Potter World in. Universal studios is made up of the two parks-Universal Studios is the first park they built(Hollywood lot tours etc) and then Universal Studios Islands of Adventure (more of an amusement park with roller coasters and those types of rides) came about 10 or so years later but when we in Florida refer to either park we usually just refer to both parks as Universal.

Any Florida resident knows that Universal City Walk has a movie theatre so woud’nt it be cool if they have the premier at Universal City Walk and as an added bonus get to see the Harry Potter theme park early, I mean it’s publicity for both park and and movie and what could be better than that.

Ohhhh this is so exciting!!!!!! It would have been cooler if they could have managed to build a whole new park in England though, Harry Potter stuff only. But still this is awesome!!!! Potterlover1992 I bet they’ll have some discouts and stuff, and I’ve driven from further north to Orlando it’s not that bad if you reall want it. I mean come on it’s Harry Potter.
Yay!

I don’t think i understood what you said. are “the flying unicorns” and “poseidon” and “simbad” still there? or they took them down?

my God, they are actually building Hogwarts Castle? if they build it to scale, that would be worth the price of admission alone. i wonder if it will have moving staircases?

Can’t wait. Unfortunately for me, my son will only be 3 at the time the park opens. I guess we’ll have to wait a couple of years for our visit. I think this will be a great thing for the states. I also think that Dan, Emma and Rupert could make a visit or two a year so we here in the states could have a chonce to meet them. Would be great. The flying Unicorn to the Hippogrif? What about the Dueling Dragons. Is it going to be part of HP World?

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i CAN’T WAIT TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will be there for xmas hopefully….and i want to go to honeydukes and ride on buckbeak and everything….cya there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I now know where I want to go on my honeymoon. Heck with Disney World, this will definitely be the happiest place on earth!

Okay so i live like one hour from Orlando. It’s gonna be like so cool! Stuart Craig is so funny (: LOL. Wait a sec….so does that mean that there are only gonna be kiddie rides there? It would be cool if they made Hogsmeade as like shops. When can we buy tickets??

We went on our first trip to Florida last November, to visit Disney & Universal & Sea World…my kids loved the trip so much, they used to ask “Mom, when can we go again?” But they have stopped asking…they KNOW it will be sometime in late 2009, early 2010…hopefully when Leaky and the rest of HP fandom descend on the park…they are checking weekly for details of the construction…LOL

OMG! I can not wait to go. I am already pack to go.
