There are a few new ride details out thanks to a copy of Universal Orlando's 2010 Brochure, found at this link (in PDF format). - The Flight of the Hippogriff ride will have Hagrid teach you the proper way to approach a Hippogriff. It dives through a pumpkin patch and brings you past Hagrid's Hut. You must be 36 inches (3 feet) tall. - The Forbidden Journey ride will take you through Hogwarts classrooms and corridors of Hogwarts, then lets you soar above the castle. The minimum height requirement for this ride will be 48 inches (4 feet). - The Three Broomsticks is described as a "counter service" restaurant, implying that you will pick up your food cafeteria-style. Thanks to Screamscape for the tip.

Honestly, this should have been made here in LA. Universal Studios Hollywood is the THE REAL STUDIO. The one in Florida isnt that great, but just an amusement park. The one in Hollywood is where you actually come across movie stars and actual filming goes on. But, oh well, at least this thing got made. Think about what is, not what could be. :)

MrPOE, the last time I went to Universal Studios Florida, We passed two different film crews working on scenes for movies. We also took a tour of the animation department and got to look over the animators shoulder as he drew animation cells. Whoever did the brochure layout must be part lawyer. Most of it is in fine print , and you come to the Real fine print

MrPoe 3 - Universal Studios Hollywood HAS NO ROOM for such an expansion as this. And this isnt build in Universal Studios Orlando, its being build in Islands of Adventure next door. The former focuses on the movies, by butting in the latter, Universal will be able to focus on the entire world, including all that not seen in the movies.

Sweet. I wish the Three Broomsticks wasnt counter style though. It would be awesome to actually sit inside a place that looks like the actual pub.

Although counter style, it will still appear like the three broomsticks portrayed in HP 6 (Film). Besides its not so much a pub as much as a restaurant. If you want a pub, you go to hogs head right next door XD
