| | | RUMOR: Harry Potter theme park?
Late last year we reported that J.K. Rowling denied rumors that there were plans with Disney for a Harry Potter theme park.
A new rumor has surfaced today about a potential deal with Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.
Take it with a grain of salt, people. (Although it would be cool …) |

That is so totally awesome! If it's going to turn out being true, I wish I can go there. I mean, Harry Potter theme park? What can be better than visiting there?

| Ultimate Potterite Original original One half of me hopes that it's not true because I don't want Harry Potter to become this sort of Disney world-like thing. But, it would be amazing if they managed to do it correctly! |

But, it would be amazing if they managed to do it correctly! I understand what you are saying, I don't want it to be a main-stream mechanical attraction in anyway...but if they could keep the magic in it, not only the book magic but keep the whole thing feeling...very Potterish, then I'd be all for going.
I mean, it would be cool...in some aspects, like Imagine a Virutal Quidditch ride...scarry!

That'd be pretty cool. ^If it was quidditch...if they don't have like seat belts...I'd fall off.
I just thought Disney World would have like stuff from Disney...I don't think HP is affiliated with Disney World...they have Warner Bros...though.

I like my medicine with a spoonful of sugar ... *jumps in a vat of sugar* A spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down, the medicine go down, the medicine go down, a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down, in a most delightful way  Seriously, some dumb investor makes a crack remark that probably started with ... "Wouldn't it be cool ..." and two seconds later all the gossip columns are reporting it as news ... when the Times says its so ... then it'll be so.
EDIT: Before you bother arguing with me just remember ... Ottery is practically perfect in every way ;P *flies off on his umbrella*

Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

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

| Crazy Hufflepuffian Sirius 'bout Sirius It would be cool but I don't ever see me being able to afford going! I've not been to Disneyland yet and it is painful to think!
I wish these rumours would just go away! They even made the national papers in the UK last year! Talk about getting our hopes up! I'm starting to find it a bit tiresome! Oh well!
