I thought Universal owned Harry Potter?

anyway, destroy these lands and make it into a Fast and Furious universe or something lmao

The parks license the rights to use Harry Potter in their parks but don't own the IP. Similar to how they license x-men and spider-man for islands of adventure in Orlando. There was a lot of negotiating and fighting to keep spider-man away from Disney world, though Spider-man will be in Disneyland.

Yes a fast and the furious world would be cool. I’m trying to imagine an attraction involving an animatronic vin diesel lol

i'm glad they are doing this. i bet they could come up with some really cool puppets and animatronics. no need to use live animals!!!

I never knew they had actual owls as props there :( really sad seeing that poor owl chained up. It’s great that they’re gonna stop using them
