Is a January 20, 2014 opening date for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train possible???

So, you going to rephrase this 'fact'?

Im sure its a "fact"....Its not like the attraction is called Harry Potter and the escape from Gringotts or anything.

AND in addition they demolished Jaws and completed almost 90% of the work on a whole new Harry Potter area that is roughly the same size of FL expansion....

But that disney magic takes a long time to create.

Yesterdayevening they where running a lot of test trains again.

Did Daniel Radcliff film scenes for this new attraction?

On Wikipedia it says opening date is February 18th. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Dwarfs_Mine_Train

It must have been edited already -- the current article says "Spring 2014."

Oops, never mind -- I see what you're referring to, now! However, if you click on the "source" of that information (a Disney Parks Blog entry), no such date appears in that article. The date is purely speculative.

And when it comes to Universal rumors, HTF is pretty reliable.

I switched it back to Spring 2014 since the source doesn't support that date.

Yeah, besides, we all know the real date 2/7/14, right @Rose&Crowner ?

The fact that you were able to switch it kind of discredits Wikipedia as a source. I wish my students were take note.

Rupert Grint and Helena Bonham Carter have filmed scenes as Ron and Bellatrix for the Wizarding World’s forthcoming Gringotts ride, but Dan Radcliffe has turned the opportunity down.
In new comments to TimeOut London over the weekend, Radcliffe reveals that he didn’t film scenes for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter expansion in Orlando because he’s “done so much work to establish [himself] as something outside that series.”

If he's in it, it has to be leftover footage from the first ride or films.....

 

[marni1971]

Rupert Grints pretty much a main character isn't he?

If it just had goblins and a dragon in it the attraction would still reset the bar.

But anyway, back to the kiddy coaster that's still not open...

HTF's post also showed Emma Watson (Hermione), so even though Harry that is two of the three main characters.

I don't call that stirring the pot, Orky8 gets it.

You mean the extremely well themed family coaster?

HTF showed a picture of Harry, so I wonder how they will work it out. I seriously doubt Emma Watson would return to Potter either. An awesome Harry animatronic would be the way to go, kind of like Indy, but I don't see it happening.

Offer most actors enough money, they will do anything, especially something like this which would be a small time commitment.

No, the pretty but short kiddy coaster. That's still not open after 2 1/2 years.

The family coaster is in Frontierland.
