    Considering JJP hit two home runs already with Warner (Hobbit) (WOZ) what would make anyone think they wouldn't have already discussed this with JJP. I'm sure without any doubt that they would want a fully themed game not some assembly line approach for Stern. The owner of the entire HP franchise is a billionaire I'm sure she could care less about making a few bucks off a pinball game. Now is she's seen how the game was approached from Hobbit by JJ she might want to do it simply based on the wow factor.

    If you see a HP game I'm sure it will be JJ. I doubt ANYONE would want a HP gamee made by Stern. HP would be another high end collector style game. Look at Star Wars that game is a disaster, who wouldn't have wanted JJ to do that game?

    I think everyone. Based on Warners success with JJ I'm sure HP was already discussed. Clearly they want to continue they got Willy Wonka.

    Stern shouldn't come within 100 feet of Harry Potter. Although I'm not a huge Harry Potter fan I know people would look for that pinball to be more collector than anything else. I doubt very seriously the owner of Harry Potter who has over 1 billion dollars cares about a check from Stern for a million. I think she would care more about how it turned out... which is why she'll go with JJ IF and ONLY IF she decides to approve the game.

    Warner has a track record now with JJ... WOZ, HOBBIT and now WILLY WONKA. Jersey Jack will get that pinball if it ever gets approved.

    Warner hasn't really worked with Stern in a decade back to Batman Dark Knight. I don't think Batman 66 is actually warners it was FOX.

    So no recent track record what so ever and JJ has three games already. I'm going with JJ on this one.

    I talked to someone who knows, they said NO ONE will ever get Harry Potter. Everyone has tried and no one will get it end of story.

    Just think of this for one second... JJP has done Wonka, Hobbit and WOZ with Warner. I'm sure they asked probably 100 million times.

    There more than likely will never be a Harry Potter pinball game unless somebody makes one at home. The owner of Harry is worth Billions with a B she doesn't need to license this out for a pinball game. It's just never going to happen.

    Personally I think JJP should switch to Matrix... now that would be pretty cool!
