HEY! THIS IS VERY MISLEADING. I first read it as: Wizarding World opening date to revealed to be March 25th. It got my hopes up, CUZ ILL BE IN FLORIDA THAT DAY AND WEEKEND. I WAS SO EXCITED, but now I feel like I got the wind knocked outta me. How disappointing. Im not the only one... seems like superfish31 read it that way too. DANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!! >:(

At first I misread this and thought that the park was opening on March 25 and I freaked out! But this is so exciting- I cant wait to see details on the Forbidden Journey. This park is looking FANTASTIC- Im trying not to get my hopes up too much!

The Theme park opening date to be revealed on March 25...earlier it was reported, that the opening wud be no later than June 30. I wonder if filming would be hastened now, (I used the word hastened) to enable everybody (& I mean everybody) to attend the opening. Filming takes place in the UK, and the park is in Orlando. There shouldnt be a case of, hey we have to attend the opening...oh s***, its an imp scene to be filmed tomorrow, we have to get back quickly...we cant delay filming now, etc. etc. etc....
Btw, check this out:
This will blow you away!! This is DH film information (the very latest!!)...

Looks like the link wont be posted without the stupid spaces. Or better log on to http://www.snitchseeker.c om/ and click on the headline "UPDATED New Voldemort, Snape & burnt Quidditch pitch Deathly Hallows footage shown at ShoWest"...contains latest DH information...if you click on it right now, amybe youll get it quickly....but if youre a bit delayed, say if u want to visist the site tomorrow, click on Latest Harry Potter News and rumors...Snitch Seeker is not a Mugglenet competitor, if Im not mistaken, Mugglenet has referred to Snitch Seeker on many occasions during news reporting...

Is this the date that they reveal the date that they will reveal when the Wizarding Park opens. Just tell us already! They need a big official warning to let us know when they will tell us when it opens? Confused? I am. Mostly because of what I just wrote.

If you click on the "Park Deals" on the Universal Studios website, the "Harry Potter" package is first available for travel dates beginning Friday, May 28. (Thats the Friday of Memorial Day weekend for anyone without a calendar handy. I suppose that is still technically spring, even in FLA!) Though I wonder if it wont open at least one day earlier for some lucky prize winners?

cool, though I live in CA, so I likely wont be able to go right away. On another note, does anybody else think that mugglenet needs a new poll?

Hmm tbc07, I do not have troubling reading. I just looked at it, and jumped to conclusions when I saw Opening Date, and March 25th in the same sentence.
