Ollivander would be spinning in his grave if he was dead :see_no_evil::see_no_evil::see_no_evil:

I buy my wands at Gregorovitch’s!! They’re the family that taught the Olivander’s how to be wandmakers!

(Plus, it’s never crowded! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:)

Looks like I’ll be getting another wand when I go to Epic!

Has anyone else ever signed up for this??

I’ve signed up in the past. Got a survey that ended up being related to the theming of Dreamworks land.

Yep! You’ll get them mostly right after a trip. Every once in a blue moon I’ll get a “random” survey in my e-mail though. They typically take about 10 minute to do

The last one I got was about different discounts to offer to get people to come to the parks and not wait until Epic opens.

I think there’s speculation that Springfield is the next land to go and may happen sooner than we thought.

Oh no :cry:

Why? Licensing? Poor popularity? Something else they want to be using the space for more?

I liked that area! But Simpsons is nostalgic for me. I can see why it’s on the chopping block.
Just don’t touch Suess Landing please!

I doubt they will. They make too much money off the Grinch stuff.

Good point!

The contract will expire in 2028, the ride is barely working as is, and Universasl has a hotter property to replace this.

Any speculation on what specifically??

I really enjoy Springfield. It’s fun and definitely a well “themed” area. However, I appreciate that Universal is fine rotating areas / rides.

I love the Simpsons and the themed area is nice, but I can’t ride the ride (motion sickness) and the land is starting to get a run down feel. So I’m happy to see something new potentially coming to the area.
