New Harry Potter ride?

Nothing has been confirmed but it's one of the highly theorized spots for an addition. Would give enough space for a new attraction an is a show that isn't very popular anymore. Ministry of Magic is a likely addition, an some of the designers have mentioned wanting to design an attraction for it, as it would be a large enough piece to do a lot with versus a generic village or individual small houses. And as it is in London, building it next to the London section of Diagon Alley would be the most logical location.
But nothing has been confirmed or heavily rumored from inside sources yet.

Fear Factor wasn't my thing on the tube, wasn't about to spend the time @ the parks either. It does take up a nice chunk of land there. Probably not large enough footprint for Nintendo, which will likely land in the kiddie area.

With the HP fan base and what so far have been great stand-alone atttractions, another HP attraction makes sense but it needs to be different from the existing type.

Ministry of Magic lends itself to a drop tower type of ride.

Yea as fun as I think battling the Death Eaters would be think the prior option would be better and put a more standard Mystic Manor type dark ride in Ministry of Magic. With having the MiB ride next to the likely location for MoM would seem a little strange to have both interactive rides right next ot each other. Think be better to have a more traditional dark ride in Universal since they really don't have one and put and interactive one into IoA

Doesn't matter to me. But WWoHP already has enough coasters. I would love to see a much tamer dark ride and trackless would be perfect for this franchise.

Yea feel like MoM would jsut work really well with the trackless system. I imagine the queue line taking you through the atrium space with the fountain and throughsome of the offices and corridors. Show Arthur's office, maybe Umbridge's with Moody's eye in it. Then have the actual ride itself be through the Department of Mysteries. You woudl journey through different rooms showing all sorts of magical mayhem going on. There is a fair amount of things they can take from the book and even make up some new rooms for the attraction. Think it woudl give them the msot free reign for a fun adn crazy ride that woudl be fun for the whole family.

And if they made it trackless could even have it go through different rooms on different trips to make rerides more worthwhile so that you could see everything.
