Grand opening of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter with Daniel Radcliffe & other movie stars

On the morning of June 18, 2010, the first guests were officially welcomed into Universal Orlando's new Wizarding World of Harry Potter addition to the Islands of Adventure theme park by none other than Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe, and, staying true to character, a bit of mischief from the Oliver and James Phelps who play the Weasley twins in the film series. Lines to enter the Wizarding World of Harry Potter on its first official open day stretch outside the park and into nearby Universal CityWalk.

    Just came back from there. Was there on Wednesday, June 23rd. It was just fantastic and very surreal to be standing there. It felt like you were really on a movie set or an actual village. It was very very very cool. It was strange though to have snow covered buildings and hot and humid weather at the same time. Ha Ha....very very hot conditions. It was crazy. Lines everywhere. When it was the evening, it cooled off and was much nicer to walk through...

It was the second most amazing day of my life right after the birth of my son. My husband was the first one to notice Daniel getting interviewed and after we verified that it was him I started a chant of his name AND HE ACTUALLY TURNED AND WAVED!!!!

    There's a video on youtube about the whole fight between Disney and Universal for the Harry Potter franchise. Incredibly, Disney shot itself in the foot by being too bullish and demanding. The meetings with Rowling were a disaster and she fled when she realized what she was getting herself into. She walked across town to Universal and they literally let her do almost anything she wanted. IF Disney had won, we would have NO Hogwarts castle and the park would be shoved into a tiny corner of Fantasyland because they didn't want Harry, Ron and Hermione overshadowing anything Disney-related! Unbelievable. And the Diagon Alley plans Disney drew up were a total joke. Worse, Disney has a brutal no-costumes or anything resembling a character" policy for people over a certain age so you wouldn't be able to wear your house robes! I'm glad they blew it. I know it would have been a disaster, just look at Galaxy's Edge if you don't think so...

    Lucky kids!!!!!! Oh man, I would have... I would have probably broken down crying if I had met Daniel... Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone was one of the first chapter books I ever read on my own, and I was about seven or eight years old, then. And it was the first fandom I joined after Pokemon and brought me closer to my life long best friends. The first time I visited this park, even without them, I broke down crying only first sight of Hogsmeade and Hogwarts and I was 18. When I was a child, I would often sit and wonder if there would ever be a HP theme park where we could go and experience the magic of our childhoods. I never thought they would do it and the day I found out that it was going to be built, I also cried and I jumped around out of excitement when I told my mother about it. Also going there again this summer now that I'm 21. Can't wait to revisit my childhood!!

    Good for you! The PS2 version has the best gameplay, the other versions for the other platforms, although following the story, are completely different! Except the Xbox and Gamecube versions, which are the same as the PS2 one. However, the PC version of PoA isn't too different, but somewhat. After those games, every game is the same in all platforms except handhelds. So, the musicals?

You gotta see em if you prefer visual entertainment, or hands-on into the world of Harry Potter where you actually be Harry in the adventure, or a musical expirience with remarkable songs, because there's always another way back to Hogwarts...
