Since my announcement post back in March (here) I have spent a lot of time glued to the Showmasters forum and Twitter feed for any more announcement of guests that I would just love to meet and gaining understanding of how a Comic Con works. It does sound totally nuts at times but I am sure I can survive and work it all out!
I have now booked more photoshoots to go along with the Jason Momoa and I am now going on the Saturday as well!
Big news yesterday was the launch of the new Harry Potter ride at Universal in Florida. Hagrid’s Magical Creature Motorbike Adventure. Which does look rather epic in all honesty, the wait time for the ride reached a massive 600 minutes!
Brand new releases from Lego so with being in London I queued to get in the Lego shop and decided to buy a few. I had started by trying to see if I could work out who Dumbledore was . . . But after a few minutes I decided to just go full on pot luck and picked four different packets.
A fantastic day trip on Monday to Alnwick Castle where different scenes in Harry Potter were filmed, they also have a broomstick lesson which was certainly a lot of fun for us adults as well as kids, luckily the group we ended up in had more adults! The photo and video taking with the broomsticks afterwards was very amusing and as you can see we have done well to recreate Harry Potter!
The official trailer for a new Harry Potter game which will be hitting iOS and Android devices, as a mobile game. I briefly remember hearing something that was going to come in a similar format to Pokemon Go, but this certainly looks a little bit different.
British acting legend has sadly passed away at the age of 77. He was well known for his many film roles including The Elephant Man, 1984, Alien, V for Vendetta and featuring in the Harry Potter series. He also was a well respected actor on stage and the small screen with many roles in TV series.
Rest in Peace Sir John Hurt
The adventures of Newt Scamander as he travels to New York. We see the secret community they have set up for wizards and witches as they try to conceal any magic. Which might be a little bit tricker when some beasts are lost in the city!
