I scanned this thread and it looks like nobody likes Fear Factor live it wasn't open when we went in November should we see it when we go this year or should we just skip it?

We went once 10 years ago. Never again. That is the worst theme park show by far.

The only reason I went in the past ten years was my best friend competed on it. It's fun when you know someone.

Fast and the furious supercharged

Mostly going to talk favorites, since we all mostly agree the worst is F&F. The queue is nice for that one though. Also just snow blowed my driveway and want to think about Florida things lol.

Revenge Of The Mummy: The queue pretty much immediately sets the tone for this ride. Creepy, eery, is anything going to happen to me? kind of feeling. Awesome stuff. Then the ride itself is just pure fun from the get go. Awesome thrills and a joy every single time to ride. The waits are usually never too long either which is a bonus. A+ stuff here.

Race Through New York: Shocker! Honestly I adore this queue. Massive NBC comedy fan in general, and snl fan, and I do watch Fallon and Seth Meyers on occasion, so being in the queue does make feel a part of 30 rock which is fun. Everything about this is just, fun. The ride itself I enjoy but admittedly see its glaring flaws. Best done after a brownie or a few brews taken down. I enjoy this one though, even though its another 3-D attraction it feels much more unique and they did the most they could with the space given.

Men In Black: Best shooter ride around. Easy for anyone of any age to enjoy, immersive, and again, PURE FUN. Thats what I want when I go to a theme park. Love this one every single time and its always fun trying to beat my score.

Escape From Gringotts: Wish it had a bit more coaster in it, but still a great immersive attraction that makes me feel like I'm a part of the action. Love this queue as well.

ET Adventure: Again, wonderful queue and puts you right into the story. Plus the AC in there is wonderful. The ride itself is pure dark ride magic and that just makes me feel like Im at Universal. Typically, we start our day at USF here.

Minion Mayhem: Sorry, I don't hate the minions! They're cute and I love the Despicable Me Franchise. I find this ride super cute and must do for all families. Wish they did more with Despicable Me but I still love this attraction. Pre shows are super fun.

Those are my top picks. Every time I'm in the park I tend to ride them if time allows.

[StarTrekGeek]

I have to say... it is very crazy to see what has changed since my last post on this thread back in 2010 (!!). I think I should update my choices.

Favorite: A combination of Rockit, Mummy, and MIB. I will say that Rockit isn't as good as it was now that they have shortened the song options. I still like the overall coaster (don't come at me lol).
Least Favorite: Seeing that Fear Factor has been gone for years now... Fast & Furious Supercharged. Not a fan of the Fast & Furious franchise in general, but I was still expecting a much better ride than this disappointment when it first opened.

I'll add this:

Attractions That I Have Grown to Like More:
MIB. I liked the ride ever since I first rode as a kid, but I honestly found an incredible appreciation for its theming and the overall experience. I like riding it with a short wait time and just trying to get a new top score.
Attractions That I Have Grown to Like Less:
Transformers. It is still a thrilling experience for me, but my dislike for the Michael Bay Transformers movies is kinda catching up to this one. Especially when comparing this to Spider-Man, a ride with the same system but with a *much* superior theme and story.

 

[KonataUniversal]

Favourite: Funtastic World of HB, Nickelodeon Studios, T2-3D, Transformers
Least favourite: Anything to do with the Minions, Rip Ride Rockit post-song list change
Ironic favourite: Supercharged

 

[HalfGlass]

Favorite Rides: Gringotts, Mummy, Transformer

Favorite Show: Blues Brothers

Guilty Pleasure: Fast & Furious

There’s Only One Thing I Hate: Minion Blast

USF is still, and may forever be, my favorite park. It’s compact and I love how many IPs there are. As excited as I am for Epic, and as much as I love some rides at Islands, the fact you can jump to so many attractions that represent different movies and shows is always preferable to me than visiting lands with one property. It brings opportunity for easier replacements for things that are dated or don't work anymore as well (Toon Lagoon, Lost Continent, etc)

 

[Myah1220]

Favorite: The Mummy. (Favorite used to be Jaws RIP.)

Least Favorite: Tie between Jimmy Fallon & F&F.

Dishonorable Mention: Minion Blast. Feels like it was randomly cobbled together and a waste of space.

 

[themeparkpalooza]

Favorite: ET

Least Favorite: Supercharged

 

[mccgavin]

Favorite Ride: E.T.

Favorite Show: Bourne

Least Favorite: Fallon overall, but Simpsons is worse in its current state with the burned out projector

I personally have nothing against Minion Blast
