Harry Potter Theme park

Sneaky behind the scenes of the new theme park at io9.

Yes, I am a big child. I love theme parks. I went on the Rocking Roller-coaster at MGM 5 times in a row. I have never backed down from downright scary rides, neither have I backed out from downright silly or childish antics either.

Clearly I have more in common with my nephews than my peers, but I would love to go to this themepark.

What also interests me is how they are going to bring a magical world to life technologically without breaking the fourth wall.  Moving portraits can be done using LED screens for sure, moving stair cases for sure, the candy (which I have tried) is a done deal. What about wands and magic duels – it could be a very very cool computer game that is live action.

Yes, I am looking forward to this.
