#HarryPotter #Thursdays #1: Books vs. Movies and #UniversalOrlandoTips

 
Harry Potter Thursdays is my weekly meme where we talk about Harry Potter.  I will also be adding Tips and Tricks for Universal Orlando here in Florida.  So if you have passes or are thinking of coming here then this is the post you will want to check out.  
So this week we are talking about the Harry Potter Books vs. the Movies. And this weeks Tip is about  what Pass is right for you. 

Have a topic to discuss or a question comment below and ill answer it next week!


This Weeks Topic: Books vs. Movies

Well I have to say that I am BAD!  I have seen all of the movies multi times but I havent read the books.  I have read book three but that so far is it.  I do have then all though.  So have you read the books and seen the movies?  And which ones were better?  And do you think that they did a good job with the movies/


Weekly Tip: Passes

Ok so you live in Florida and you want a pass.  But you don't know which one you should buy!  So I am here to help you.  

Power Pass- $214.99 (non FL resident) $189.99 (Fl resident) 
If you don't mind black out dates (ie. dates you CANT go to the park and you don't mind paying for parking then this is the one for you.  The black out dates are pretty much in the summer when its hot out and most major holidays.

Preferred Pass- $294.99 (non Fl resident) $259.99 (Fl resident) 
This one doesn't have any black out dates. It includes parking, gives discounts, and well thats about it.  So if you want a no nonsense pass where you can pretty much just go to the park whenever then this is the one for you.

Premier Pass-$434.99 (non Fl resident) $384.99 (Fl resident) 
Ok so if you want to go all out then this is the one for you. This is the pass that we have had for a few years now and we love it.  This one includes unlimited access to both parks. Just like the Preferred Pass.  But, unlike that one this gives you 20% off food and items sold by Universal. (this includes harry potter stores!) It also gives you a FREE Halloween Horror Nights Ticket!  Which the best time to use it is the Passholder Day.  You get in an hour early and well you will get through all the houses way faster!  It also includes Valet Parking, Discounts on Movie Tickets, 8 Bottles of Water, Express after 4pm, and Free City Walk Access. I wish that they would add Premier Pass Only Events for some things since we are paying more.  But so far thats a no go.

If I could make a pass I would want the following:

Jessica's Ultimate Unlimited Universal Pass!
Unlimited Express All Day and I would want this to include the rides that don't have express (like Harry Potter)
30% off all items (like above)
Free Valet and Normal Parking
2 Free non peak night Halloween Horror Nights Tickets (for you to use both or bring a friend.)
16 Bottles of Water
1 Unlimited Refill Cup (its a cup that you can have refilled this would be part of the pass instead of having to pay for it each time)
12 Food Cards (this replaced their meal deal bands.  We would get 12 of them a year)
1 Annual Wet n' Wild Pass
1 Hour early entrance to Harry Potter (just like those staying in the hotels)
Exclusive Ultimate Unlimited Pass Events
Star Photo thing for 1 year included (this gives you discounts on photos, online copies of all photos etc. norm $70)
And who knows what else but these are the things that pop in my head right now.

I've read all the books (they were good) and seen up to fourth movie. Books were better.
It's just that... some things are impossible to create no matter how good the computer graphics, imagination beats all.
