    Universal's Epic Universe General News & Discussion

    Having a some fun with lists, predictions and random thoughts.... What are you heading to first after entering the park? 1. Donkey Kong 2. Battle of the Ministry 3. Starbucks :lol: What ride will have the most downtime? 1. Battle of the Ministry 2. Monsters Unchained 3. Mario Kart What...

    Super Nintendo World (Epic Universe)

    The visual effect that they are going for is pretty dang good! DK is going to have excruciating wait times IMO.....everyone is going to want to ride this. This might be the ride that I head to first at park opening.

    How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk (Epic Universe)

    I don't think that the comparison is totally subjective. I really like both IPs....and don't get me wrong....Slinky Dog is an incredibly themed and enjoyable family coaster. That being said....there is no show for those that don't ride.....as you said there is nothing for the little ones other...

    How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk (Epic Universe)

    I would argue that Universal has achieved that through the design of the land....and yes there is something for everyone. Compare that to Toy Story Land which is also an IP that is targeted for everyone of all ages but failed miserably as a fully fleshed land to be enjoyed by those of all ages.

    How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk (Epic Universe)

    As someone way outside of the targeted age range....I'm very excited to see and experience this land. The coaster, show and dining hall are going to be crowd pleasers for all ages. This is how to do a complete themed land based on an animated IP. One new thing that I noticed.....that...

    Dark Universe (Epic Universe)

    This coaster is the only real disappointment for me in EU prior to actually experiencing it before it opens. It just seems so short and boring.....even for the family coaster that it is. Maybe I will change my mind once I actually ride it in all its themed and atmospheric glory.....but for now...

    Celestial Park (Epic Universe)

    I'm so incredibly excited that they will have a tiki bar that all park patrons will have access to......a refreshing change!

    DreamWorks Land coming to USF (2024)

    Shrek's house looks great! Is the ET entrance going to be moved and/or re-done?

    Dark Universe (Epic Universe)

    I think that it is OK to have opinions about the look of these monsters. There is no "winning" of "losing" here....just people voicing their thoughts.....each coming from individual brains based on personal preferences and experiences. Everyone take a deep breath....Dark Universe will be...

    Yeah....maybe it's mostly the jacket because I also thought of this...yikes!

    Funny you say that....there are more comments on this land than any other on Universal's FB page.

    Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic (Epic Universe)

    Stylistically they had to do 1920s Paris.....I think that it is super cool that they are doing a hybrid story line involving both FB and HP....almost like guests are living a new chapter of these combined movies....love it!

    Universal's Epic Universe General News & Discussion

    Universal's video gave me goosebumps and brought a tear to my eye....they must be doing something right. I think that they are just moving full steam ahead as a company and giving people what they want....and I love it!

    Universal's Epic Universe Construction Thread

    As I've said before.....a game changer for U.S. parks. Our Tokyo DisneySea. Please spare me with reasons why it is not like TDS....I'm simply stating that it will be the most elaborate, elegant and advanced park in this country......that cannot be argued. The amount of detail going into this...

    Universal's Epic Universe Construction Thread

    I counted 29 Yoshi ride vehicles that I could see....looks like there might be about 45-50 of them?
