Welsh Boy Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I just watched the DVD about this that came with one of the papers. I saw that the Owlery looks like a rest area with lockers. Is that what its going to be or ? I'm so amazed at this area and the themeing. Just another example of what the Americans can do ! ! !

MikeyT Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 Yep that's right. The owlery is going to be a calm and peaceful area to escape from the noise of the rest of the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I'm still finding this incredibly hard to believe. It's absolutely amazing! 10x better themeing than Saw: The Ride imo.Saw isn't even on the scale compared to this project.HOGWARTS EXPRESS!

tomathy Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Damn, I need to go but wont be for a few years at least, it looks way better than I expected. Why cant we over here in the U.K be bothered to theme our rides to that extent, it makes them so much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyT Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Interesting fact for you, the whole Potter project has a price tag of $200 Million, which works out at £126 million approx. Mega money! Blackstone like splashing out on Universal :wub:This was in the telegraph today.
