E.T. Adventure General Discussion

If anything, it being a pure joke riding the coattails of some weird Twitter fad makes me like it even less!

This may be a bad sign

This is pretty much just the opening day lineup, no? In that sense, it makes sense.

Replace Twister with Ghostbusters for opening day lineup...

Its the hottest new meme.

What’s the new meme?

I guess I’m the only that actually misses Twister? Lol

You and me both sister!

I liked it when everything worked... lol... (Poor Twister peeps. We Disaster folks got a whole catered affair on closing night, unique t-shirts and a special last-show performance by super. They got nothing... )

I'll be honest...I don't remember it. At all. My dad taped it (yes, on VHS) and I have our experience on my computer somewhere, but I don't remember it myself.

BUUUT I'm a "young whippersnapper" who first attended USF in 1997, when I was 2. And apparently I got spooked by something, because I would refuse to go into any building unless my parents carried me in. Who knows what ride did me in.

Twister was a unique physical effects showcase. Universal Studios Florida was better when it had more of such things.

I always wondered what a physical Twister dark ride would have looked like

Ironically, some folks hated Twister as it replaced Ghostbusters which was equally as unique

Bingo. They had one at Kennywood when I was much younger....It was on the level of Snow White at Disney.

Both attractions were quite ambitious.

Ironic how some people always glared at Twister when it was around for replacing Ghostbusters, but now that it's gone people regard it as a classic

The wheel continue to turneth

I don't think those are the same people.

In my opinion the only great loss to the park was Jaws.

 

[Cup_Of_Coffee]

The only rides in USF rn to not use a screen are ET, Mummy, and MIB. Sad we lost twister tbh. Wish they could’ve just rethemed it. USF needs some revamping a little at this moment

Jaws and Hitchcock IMO, but I understand that the latter is very much a personal preference.

Universal can easily fix itself if it just added one water ride and maybe 2 more indoor dark rides similar to E.T. The park would be way more balanced. USF really lacks family rides.

A water ride themed to what ?
