Harry Potter Theme Park

Universal Studios is opening a theme park in 2009 based on the Harry Potter series. It will, according to the Associated Press, have a Hogwarts, a Forbidden Forest, and a Hogsmeade Village.

I want to go.

I'd like to say that I'm thrilled that there is going to be a literary theme park, however, I'm sure that if there hadn't been the movies, there wouldn't be a theme park. However, I am pleased to see that J.K. Rowling is being closely consulted so that it will reflect closely the world that she created.

As much as she is eager for a break, I think she may find it more difficult than she expects to walk away from the series. She's almost become a captive the way the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle became a captive of Sherlock Holmes.
