| | | JKR says no to HP theme park
Yesterday we told you about a rumor that J.K. Rowling and Disney were discussing the possibility of a Harry Potter theme park. A spokesperson for Rowling has told TLC that the reports are indeed false. |

I sorta agree with Jo on this one, even though I love the Harry Potter series to the extent of scariness I think a theme park might be the ultimate sell out thing to do.

Aww. Yeah, that would have been awesome! They could have simulated the spells with air and water. I would have loved for magical creatures to pop out at me! Oh well. I guess a theme park is taking it a little to far...

For some reason I'm glad that she said no. Maybe because if there is a theme park people will get occupied with those stuff and forget the books.

Hmmm, that would have been cool. Maybe JK will change her mind one day or let Disney do something else . . .

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

Ottery's crying again because this report was not accompanied by Rupert pictures ... and in news that has nothing to do with Harry Potter ... Teddy is not a blonde.

This is really disappointing news. The theme park idea was a little outrageous to begin with, but it would have been so much fun. Oh well... we can always hope that some day she'll change her mind. :-)
