Saw Cinespec on opening night during our vacation last May. We waited a while for the rain to end, and the show was far above our expectations. It was so good we watched it a total of four nights at the Studios, and really didn't get to see everything occuring on screen, since there is so much happening between the film clips, lasers, fireworks and water screens. Great for repeat viewings. Plus we watched the fireworks portion a couple of nights from our Portofino room balcony. As good as any Disney night show, an area in which Universal was previously severely lacking. We are not usually fans of theme park parades, except for the Disney Electrical Parade. We always skip them. But we tried the Universal Parade & really enjoyed it. Very unique & upbeat. Also like the way Universal does encore performances with individual floats & characters through the course of the day. Universal has a real winner with the Despicable Me characters. Our favorite viewing site, we tried a few, was the area in Central Park, near the Simpsons.
