They need a Wizarding World themed hotel or a hotel with themed rooms.
Disney did something similar with Star Wars and it didn’t go so well
@@kalebkennedy3204 it didn’t go well because the huge thing people complained about was they were charging such a high price for such a short time like 4 people could stay for $6,000 for a two day stay
I've always thought that would be amazing...but REALLY tough to pull off.
I heard about Harry Potter Reboot
@@thecrazydisneyparksfanatic921agreed. They should have just treated it like a themed hotel, and then during a certain time of the year charge those exorbitant prices for the full story experience. That’s why it cost so much, all the staffing and training involved.
I recall finding Nicolas Flamel's house when I was in Paris. That was pretty awesome.
Very cool!
Same. Even though I’ve been to Paris many times, I’m so excited for this.
Well done!
Your video combines different sources and even patents!
Unlike other UA-camrs who just repeat Universal's announcement. love your videos
Glad you enjoyed it, dermot864!
The rumors makes sense that the cancelled third attraction was meant to be inside the French Ministry of Magic, but only the British Ministry made the cut. With the stronger Potter connection, it makes sense, but hopefully they use that expansion plot someday! What they've made looks incredible.
Ohh I didn’t realize that! Maybe that’s the extra space they’re considering the Great Hall dinner experience?
@@RetroRaconteur I believe the Great Hall is supposed to be a relatively small footprint, but it will be right by that area!
well, I wonder what's your thoughts about the portal of HP is the plainest one(in my opinion) others are fancier
I didn't even recognize the portal as a time tuner until I saw your video, and the graffiti on the floor in front of the portal doesn't make it obvious what it is, but something like Nitendo's does!
The Nintendo one is pretty awesome 😄. Not really sure what else they could have done for the WW one. Maybe a full wizard statue instead of just the hand/wand?
*cries in European*
Uhgg I would LOVE to visit one day. I will keep the hotel tip in mind for if this dream ever comes true! That rumor about the great hall dining experience sounds amazing too
Definitely worth the trip if you ever have the opportunity! Once this opens, there will be 3 completely separate theme parks each with their own Harry Potter-themed sections at Universal Orlando! 😱
I was 12 years old when I read the philosopher's stone back in 1997, meaning im 40 this year. the first Harry Potter generation hits 40 years now, and Harry Potter is still massive. I was born in late 84, December
I'm pretty close to you! I can still remember the early days when the movies and theme parks were just rumors. What a fun adventure it's been.
I was born 1997 my First DVD movie was the philosopher's stone. Since Reading books wasn't cool as a Kid, I got my dream Gift this Christmas now at 26 years , a Special Edition of the books and i'm inhaling them.
35 now i was 9yrs reading first book crazy time flys
@@Anihilationx360Aww, same. I remember reading the first book in 1998 in 5th grade.
Planing our trip as we speak! Let’s goooo!!
Yessss!
Is this in australia
Orlando, FL in the US.
Retro...stop what you're doing and go to Diagon Alley. You'll not regret it.
Haha. I've heard it's great! Been waiting for the kids to get old enough so they could enjoy it too. I feel like they're getting close enough to make the trip.
ive heard from other channels thats epic universe is 5 MONTHS ahead of schedule
That's awesome!
Worth staying on site? You must be getting kickbacks. I just looked at staying 4 nights at portofino and it was like 12k. I can stay at the Fairfield Inn for 2k. I've never gone and missed riding any rides, including suessville. I've gone for only 2 days and was able to hit almost everything. It's SO much cheaper to stay off site.
$12k?! Oh wow, that’s crazy 😆 Admittedly, it’s been a while since I went last but it did save us a lot of time in the Harry Potter area having the express pass. For that price difference though, you could just buy the express pass directly I believe. Also, no kickbacks. I wish 😆
677. Points. Julie 😊🎉❤gryffindor. Hogwarts house 🏡
I’m 100% going to this park next year
Yeah, I really hope to as well.
Sounds like shameless PR.
Okay is right, if I'm any more clear you might just delete my comment.
Looks awesome! Weird though, that they killed the FB franchise then built out a immersive theme park dedicated to it. Hope the popularity of the park leads to the finishing of the franchise
Yeah, I was kind of surprised they did Paris. Maybe the plans were already too far in to change?
Great Hall is a great idea.. the others?! Eh. Unless they have a Dumbledore vs Voldemort duel show or something in the Ministry of Magic
The Ministry is going to be a ride where you'll go up and down the elevators and likely see many different rooms/departments. Personally think it sounds incredible!
Great Hall dinner is rumored to be $150/person. I hope not, that's absolutely absurd. I don't think that pricepoint can last anyway, honestly.
I am definitely going to save as much money as I can to visit one day next year. It’s been over a decade since I last visited, when gringotts ride came out 🙏🏻😭
Wow! You've actually been more recently than I have 😅 At least to the one in Orlando. The footage I used of myself in the park was when WB hooked us up with a trip to the one in LA.
@@RetroRaconteurwhat no way loll I know you and your family will love it for sure! It’s like home 😁
I'm so excited for this and Super Nintendo World!
First
Oh my, Rossy! It’s been a minute. Welcome back😄
@@RetroRaconteur been busy with university lol, still watching the vids though
Haha. No worries. Appreciate all your support!
You think they would of done something that has to do with Hogwarts legacy
These plans have been in place for over 5 years.
Oh
Harry Potter certainly becomes a huge attraction but it's Singapore that it's left out, their Universal Studios don't have the space to build a Harry Potter universe
Yeah they have one in LA and there’s a wizarding world section but it’s not nearly as big as the one in Orlando. They just have a lot more space there
We need an expansion on the west coast!
Click bait: it’s for Epic Universe
Yeah...that's what the video is about.
So sad it is so far from Sweden to Florida to experince that!
Universal's been changing some of the wand hardware lately.
Ohhh, interesting!
It looks great! I’ve never been to one of the parks, but I may start budgeting for Florida in 2025/2026. Wouldn’t a Meet Up be fun??
Meetup would be amazing!
Fantastic beasts was terrible
I know it’s just for the parks, but hate the ministry having the elder wand and a time turner. The time turner mostly because lore wise, they explain why you shouldn’t mess with time, and why the time turners are only allowed to back five hours at most
I think it’s more symbolic for entering the world than anything else.
I have that same gryfindor jacket shown 😂
This looks all amazing. I will never get to go but it's interesting to learn about this project 😊
Hey, maybe one day!
It looks good, I am sure one day I will get to go across the pond one day. Hopefully going to get to the studio tour this year
Wait, are you in the UK? Don’t think I realized that!
@@RetroRaconteur Yeah, UK. Avatar name taken from a 1980s (yes I was around before then) British children's tv show Mr Majeika
Wouldn't mind going to this one day sounds interesting
Have you been to the HP parks they already have open? They're incredible.
@@RetroRaconteur my family and I went to the one in California where they had the rides where you traveled through Hogwarts and a hippogriff ride. But that was it for universal
Nice
Exciting stuff
Agreed!
I'm thrilled!
Same! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Way too much Harry Potter already. New rides from new films or books would be the way to go.
You haven’t been since diagon alley? How do you still have a channel?
What do you mean?
@@RetroRaconteur you said it in your video “as a person that hasn’t been since diagon alleys expansion” it just confused me
Yeah, that's right. I haven't been to the Orlando one in a long time so I haven't even seen the Diagon Alley section in person yet. I went to the LA one in 2022 - that's where I got the footage of me walking around the park. Just wasn't sure that had to do with the question about me having a channel 😄
meh
