    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    Kong has turned into a "I'll ride it if the wait is short" ride and isn't a must do on my trips anymore. It lacks long term re-rideability for me but serves its purpose of diversifying IOA's attraction lineup. Does anyone know what the ride's GSATs are these days?

    E.T. Adventure General Discussion

    Shoutout to E.T. for now being part of three different lands in the park's history. It's the theme park equivalent of gerrymandering!

    Halloween Horror Nights 33 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

    If there will ever be a standalone M3GAN house, it makes sense to do it after the sequel releases, which just got pushed back to May 2025. It's probably now a bit early to be doing a preview scene or two at the end of a 2024 house.

    Halloween Horror Nights 33 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

    Honestly, if they had to temporarily drop to nine houses for one year... this is the year to do it when attendance is down ahead of Epic Universe. Based on October's crowd levels last year, I don't think nine houses would result in complete chaos. Is it ideal? No, but last year was fine having...

    Dark Universe (Epic Universe)

    The shoulder pads on Dracula are the only issue I have with the designs (so far). I'm sure they'll look much better in the ride itself.

    Halloween Horror Nights 33 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

    After the reception the last house got along with the tonal shift of the new films, Ghostbusters feels unlikely.

    Studio Tour

    Yeah, to clarify this was more along the lines of what I was thinking. I was not suggesting a full experience be built around the film, but given it's obviously part of the company's history now, some sort of acknowledgement or prop would be cool to see (like a car added to the rotating...

    Studio Tour

    Fingers crossed something Oppenheimer related shows up on the tour this year.

    The Future of The Simpsons Ride/Springfield (Orlando)

    It makes sense to keep Springfield open for another HHN/holiday cycle this year then close it all in Early 2025. The Simpsons Ride can go seasonal after the heavy summer rush and maybe start dismantling one of the theaters.

    Halloween Horror Nights 33 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

    Nosferatu's Christmas release date may or may not impact its chances of being at HHN next year... but come on. LOOK AT THIS. Willem Dafoe as a crazy vampire hunter is the type of synergy Comcast needs at this event.

    Star Trek coming to Universal?

    This thread brings back memories.... I think the window for a Star Trek attraction right now has passed. Without an active film franchise, there is not a mass appealing subject to build off of. The Paramount+ shows don't have half the cultural footprint NuTrek did, which was already contested...

    Super Nintendo World - Hollywood (General Discussion)

    When I got there around 4:30PM, the line was posted at 80 minutes but going into the overflow queue with single rider backed up outside. Neither line was moving due to a delay, so I bailed. Around 7:30, standby dropped to 60 minutes starting right at Bowser's Castle while single rider started...

    Super Nintendo World - Hollywood (General Discussion)

    This wasn't my first time at USH as I went last summer with a proper full day, but I got to go on the Studio Tour (at night with Nope lit up!), Mummy, and Forbidden Journey in the few hours I had. If it wasn't chilly I would've done JW (I'm in the camp that thinks it's better than River...

    Super Nintendo World - Hollywood (General Discussion)

    I went on Mario Kart twice around park close last weekend, once in single rider and once in standby. Gotta be honest... I absolutely love this ride. It fills you with a big nostalgic rush and made me feel like I was 8 years old playing the game. The sets look amazing and distinct even with AR...

    Universal Studios Florida: What Do We Think About It?

    USF is a great park that has seen slightly better days. Since Diagon opened nearly ten years ago, new issues have popped up over the years that make the park feel rougher than IOA: HRRR and The Simpsons Ride are slowly(?) deteriorating and getting worse by the month. Addressing these...

    Super Nintendo World - Hollywood (General Discussion)

    What has the virtual line norm been recently? I might be able to swing an afternoon at Universal while I'm in LA for work.

    Tropical Americas w/ Encanto & Indiana Jones to replace DinoLand?

    Does Disney really want to do that, though?

    Halloween Horror Nights 33 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

    Early Predictions: IP Houses: Robert Eggers' Nosferatu (Universal/Focus tie-in house for the fall, though it might make more sense for 2025 depending where it lands on the release schedule) Horrors of Blumhouse: M3GAN (maybe with a sneak peak scene for M3GAN 2.0), Speak No Evil A Nightmare...

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - News & Info

    Bloodmoon and Exorcist were always a 40-45 minute posted wait when I went through but I never waited more than 20 for any of my run throughs. Chucky was also overinflated very quickly on Friday (around 7PM) when it took less than ten mins.

    Halloween Horror Nights 32 (UOR) - News & Info

    Crowds felt manageable on Friday and Saturday night. I have no idea why TLOU was 100 minutes on Friday after 11PM (Saturday's posted wait around the same time was between 55-65), but aside from that, I kept all my waits below 30 minutes. When it comes to overall event crowdflow, the back half...
