Yesterland.com, a very popular theme park site, has a new article looking at the progress on The Wizarding World of Harry Potter Theme Park, and what other parks in Florida (mainly Disney World) may do to compete. They also look at the giant cement building that is going up at Wizarding World, and speculate what it could be used for: It’s hard to get a sense of scale from the photos. Actually, it’s hard to get a real sense of scale in person. It’s probably bigger than looks, even in person. What the big box already shows is that Universal wasn’t kidding about the size and scope of “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.” The park is currently scheduled to open up sometime in 2010. For all we've got on the park, click here!

I have been to both Disney World and Universal and I like Disney World way more. I think they could have done Harry Potter a lot more justice. But I am still happy with what Universal is doing. So far everything has looked amazing and I cant wait to go.

I think Disney is better too. But I think Universal is doing a wonderful job. But wait a sec... I thought we were going to be able to go inside Hogwarts?? =/ so... its just for show??

Sounds as if Universal will do the area justice - rumor has it that Hogwarts will be on a scale large enough to make it a park icon similar to the Disney castle. I just hope too many arent disappointed because the area keeps being referred to as a "theme park" - its just one area of an existing park, like Adventureland or Frontierland. Still, Im looking forward to eating in the Great Hall.

I think we'd better check with Puddlemere United whether Oliver Wood's been killed during a training session, because she [Angelina] seems to be channeling his spirit.
