Post Rumour: Potter events lined up for theme park

A few weeks ago, we gave you an update on the situation with the Harry Potter attraction at the Universal Orlando theme park in Florida. Even though we are around two years from its opening, rumours are appearing of what is to come.

One of the main rumours is to use various scenes from the Harry Potter movies in commercials for the theme park. Another rumour consists of actor Morgan Freeman being digitally inserted into memorable scenes from Harry Potter, along with other blockbusters such as Spiderman and Men in Black, to advertise the upcoming events.

Also being planned on a larger scale is Holiday at Hogwarts, a festive line up of events based on the Harry Potter movies.

FYI: You may have noticed that -- in the early concept art of the Hogsmeade Village section of "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" -- that this section of Island of Adventure's newest "land" is blanketed with snow. Well, there's a reason for that. You see, Universal is hoping to turn IOA's "Harry Potter" -themed section into a way to challenge Disney World's dominance when it comes to Christmas in Central Florida. Picture -- if you will -- a yearly "Holidays at Hogwarts" promotion at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. With carolers strolling through the streets of Hogsmeade and a traditional English Christmas feast being served nightly in the Great Hall at Hogwarts Castle.

As the story goes, once Phase One of "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" opens in 2009 (FYI: That phase of the project will probably only include Hogwarts Castle and Hogsmeade Village. Phase Two -- featuring the Forbidden Forest and that Weasley-family-flying-car attraction -- isn't expected to come on line 'til sometime in early 2010), this new "land" will then allow Universal to offer yet another after-hours seasonal event, "Halloween at Hogwarts."
However, even though these sound like they could be true, it is currently unconfirmed, and we must treat it as a rumour.

You can keep up to date on the theme park here at the official website.

I'd love to go once it comes out.
It's more about the fact that English and British aren't inter-changable terms, no matter how often they're treated as such. The writer clearly meant British, but instead put English. Which excludes the rest of us.
