I'll take a bus over to Disney Springs to eat a late lunch at Jock Lindsey's and maybe look around a little bit.
I can't wait to hear what you think of this place. Wish I'd gotten to see it last month.
But, I kind of want to see Symphony in the Stars from the entrance of DHS.
Can't blame you there. That sounds awesome!
My mom and dad bought my Universal ticket for me for Christmas, so I'll go ahead and get the Express pass.
That's a pretty sweet Christmas gift.
We ate there for the first time on our last trip and I was astonished at how small the place was.
I agree. It's such a tiny restaurant. Hope the counter thing works.
The Harry Potter attractions are not included in the Express Pass program.
Aw, come on. Really? That's annoying.
I just finished the 4th one last night. I'm going to try to continue to watch them all, but... I'm having a hard time watching them. They're long and I'm really not as into them as I thought I'd be
I was kind of the same way. I thought they were good stories, and I felt like if I had been introduced to that world when I was 8, I would have thought it was the best thing ever. But they're fine. Like any other series, there are good movies and bad ones.
Basically, it seems like all I need to know is every movie starts during the summer, they all go to Hogwarts, something goes horribly wrong, Harry isn't responsible yet they always blame him, he spends the whole movie trying to right the wrong, he comes out on top, Dumbledore tells him all the things he did wrong in skirting the rules then gives him a slap on the wrist and some kind of reward for having thwarted the evil. Maybe some plot twists will come later, but it seems pretty consistent through all of them thus far.
I think this is why I'm willing to forgive a certain other movie for a "recycled plot". It's not like there aren't any other examples of this.
Be warned on movie 7 (Deathly Hallows, Part 1). They decided to split the final book up into 2 movies, and it really shows. All the exciting stuff happens in part 2. Part 1 was my least favorite in the series.
