I wouldn't mind a preview center for Universal's Epic Universe at USF similar to that of Islands of Adventure at USF before 1999. Give viewers a real close-up of what Epic Universe would really entail for everyone to see.

I might agree with the T-shirts had hubris and hype not been the downfall of so many a major theme park project.Heck yeah. These things, when done right, are mini attractions.
And you know they would not be shy about selling t-shirts starting NOW.
You always hear stories of the legendary IOA Preview Center...I'd love to experience something like that in my lifetime!I wouldn't mind a preview center for Universal's Epic Universe at USF similar to that of Islands of Adventure at USF before 1999.

I'd imagine we'll see some sort of preview as we get closer to the parks opening. Last I saw we're looking at a summer 2025 opening, so maybe something around the Holiday 2023 - Spring Break 2024 window. You want to advertise it early enough to encourage people to come back when it opens, but not so early that people delay trips waiting for it.
Yeah, I think in the tribute store we'll see some sort of preview center in Summer 2024 or so.I'd imagine we'll see some sort of preview as we get closer to the parks opening.

I guess I'm old fashion but I get more excited by well made miniature models than a multi media orgy they just closed at Epcot.The IOA Preview Center was way more entertaining than Fallon, King Kong, and The Simpsons. Personally, for me, the Lost Continent display was the best compared to others (sadly, the island itself turns out to be shallow of its former self) Imagine what Epic Universe Preview Center could do with the touchpads, mobile apps, and other interactive features nowadays alongside the displays of certain IPs at the upcoming 3rd theme park.
Yeah, but previews through clips or presentations aren't the same as going through the preview center where you can see full-on displays of what they have to offer, along with some interactive entertainment. Nowadays, they are usually present previews when the land or ride is very close to being finished though. It would be nice to see it brought back for old times' sake.
Multi media orgies are what Walt wantedI guess I'm old fashion but I get more excited by well made miniature models than a multi media orgy they just closed at Epcot.
Agreed, they wanna sell merch early on. Maybe you can get your power bands 6 months before opening, make up on some of the expensive construction costsMulti media orgies are what Walt wanted
I am not expecting a preview center for EU, more so a preview store...An enhanced Tribute Store if you will
It would take over the Legacy Store when the time comes
Unless they put a chicken tender place in there or something
The former Nickelodeon Studios building at Universal Studios Florida could be turned into a new attraction, maybe a special effects show similar to the "Lights! Camera! Action!" show at Universal Singapore and Universal Beijing.
I'd love to get another special/physical effects showcase into USF.
I would like an omnimover so I don't have to stand up like some kind of PlebeianThat and pair with it a walkthrough attraction/museum with different scenes from various movies.
Would love to experience Lights, Camera, Action, followed by a walkthrough of various scenes from Jaws, BTTF, Psycho, etc.
