I actauly also love the Singing sorceress show more than the Tale for a reason... The music reminds me so much of old 30-40's Music and
you all know what kind... Really neat.

Only the ground floor of LC is accessible, the dining area is a little larger than 3B but not very much.
Olivanders experience is identical to Hogsmeade, the 3 rooms make the line move quicker but the show is the same.

The biggest issue on Wed seemed to be the Kuka arm that moves the exit door for the finale launch. That's where it broke down for me, we watched techs work to reset it for a good 10 minutes. No issues tonight though.

I made a special request and was the only media allowed in tonight. Everyone else was travel agents and hotel sales reps, plus creative and entertainment folks. It was much more pleasant than the celebrity circus on Wed ;-)

I sat on the top of the staircase to nowhere for the recording. You'll hear the dragon breath fire every ten minutes or so in the background...
What would you say of Gringotts now with the entire thing that it didn't break down tonight on your ridethroughs. and how was it better?

In this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iQjMB7gcVro at 7:16 it shows a window with many Skele-Gro bottles in it - for those who have been there, can you confirm if these are available for sale? This was the one prop I was crossing my fingers for :doggie: Thanks

If not I'll be disappointed. I flipped out when I saw that part of the video. I may have to do a smash and grab if they're not for sale.

Photo gallery trending on Reddit today. Some of the comments are funny, especially people just now finding out they replaced Jaws :rofl:

This is the first picture I have seen looking back at the train track overpass thingy. I suppose most do not think it is a photogenic view. Did anyone hear the train sounds?

Train SFX occurs every 5 mins or so. If memory serves, it alternates recordings (heard train passing with and without whistle).

I have a few questions. I apologize if they have already been answered, but I am trying to avoid this thread and Twitter because I want to leave it to be a surprise unlike it was for me during phase one. Anyways, here they are:
1. What is the train thing that goes over top of Diagon Alley? It js seen in a picture a few posts up.
2. Is it noticeable that there are multiple rooms in Olivander's?
3. What kind of reviews are both of the rides getting?
4. What kind of new merchandise can be bought at Fred & George's?

Is there no representation of Eyelops Owl Emporium? I haven't seen a single photo of it as a facade.
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure the interior of the Owl Emporium is just a queue for a different shop. So in the picture I've seen, there's a queue with railings and the ceiling has a bunch of owls hanging from it.

Well that's all I was hoping for, so I can dig that. I really liked all of the outside hanging cages in the first film but I haven't seen anything of that sort so far.
If you want some Diagon Alley goodness, we interviewed Seth Kubersky and Banks Lee about their experiences during the preview week. Check out the latest podcast. It may answer a lot the questions you have.

I posted a few on twitter @skubersky.
There an animatronic owl in the window, and cages hanging from the ceiling, but the interior is just switchbacks for Malkin's shop.
Flashback: If you have watched the video of the Bard's tale of two brothers, you may have been looking for the mechanical gears and box thingy that I riddled here a few months back. Well, it was cut. I knew this shortly after the riddle but I didn't have the heart to tell you that things were cut.
What replaced it you might wonder? It was replaced by the scroll shooting out of the cauldron, letting the players know what perform. The original plans were for a wild mechanical device with gears etc. that would rise up out of a wooden box and present the tale to be performed.

At around 10:40 it shows Shutterbutton's Photography Studio, and it appears that you can purchase moving pictures of your family. Is this the case? That would be awesome!
