    Beyond Big Thunder

    If they wanted a cloned land Cars Land would work really well and be nice. Do feel the RSR is different enough from Test Track to have it as the E-ticket still as well. Alaskan frontier with a snowy feel would be neat and something different, but would b hard to find a major attraction...

    Beyond Big Thunder

    I think Malificent's castle would be perfect as the focal point of the area so it could really be more of a dark mirror of Fantasyland and Cinderella's castle. Thematically it would fit well too with it being on the other side of Big Thunder Mountain and the rivers it is separated and kind of...

    Expedition Everest - Legend of the Forbidden Mountain vs Revenge of the Mummy

    Since they both provide vastly different experiences it's hard for me to really pick. Both are great attractions that I really love. Everest gives an entire beautiful area that is very scenic for the park while Mummy is smaller and indoors. The queues for both are fun, but Everest is more...

    Beyond Big Thunder

    Agreed with Encanto all but confirmed for AK I don't see it going here. Given the potential for a land and how much they could do with it, I would love for it to be all dedicated to villains to allow the most use of it, versus just getting one or two attractions. A full Fantasyland style Dark...

    Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

    While I would love to see the spinning brought back I know that won't happen, though they could up it some more and even do some slow spinning. That's what made the ride so unique and fun when it opened and now the closet section that was all spinning feels so bland and awkward. In general...

    Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

    True, and some of the scenes don't seem to work anymore either. Like Whiplash's pushcart doesn't move anymore on the first lift. It's still my favorite log flume but love to see it get some good refurbing too.

    Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

    Yea I think they could make a cool land with it too. WB is adding a land for Wizard of OZ tot heir park in Australia so might see them expand that out too to other areas.

    Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

    I'm kind of wondering if some these aren't being touched up to as they might have plans to redo them more extensively after Epic. River Adventure I could see change into the new Jurassic World version from Hollywood. The land as a whole has seemed to slowly be transition to Jurassic World with...

    The Marvels

    I agree with this. The overall movie was pretty meh, but it is a fun, enjoyable movie while watching and the three leads were great together. I put it above many other things from the MCU but is still easily a bottom half for me.

    Percy Jackson and the Olympians

    I'd watch the show first. You will probably get more enjoyment out of it not having the more in depth book to compare to. Then can read the book to see what is different and get more information and detail on certain characters and scenes.

    Any speculation or rumors on how AP's will work with opening of Epic Universe?

    I wouldn't expect much. As mentioned rumor is current AP ight get a discount on daily tickets to Epic but the pass will not work for the park. It is expected to be packed as is without a large group of people able to come and go whenever they want to, so from a crown control aspect it makes...

    Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

    Agreed, Dreamworks and Illuminations have really stepped up and becoming big for kids now, at least as much as Disney. Plus if the Frisco park does well I could see them build more small kids parks around. This will build more brand loyalty for kids with Universal as they have experienced these...

    Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

    It's really not too bad compared to other parks there. IoA currently has 16 (not counting play structures or Pteradon Flyers as have to be with a kid to ride) and Studios has 13 plus a couple shows. (could add half a point or so for Hogwarts Express to each park if wanted but again not available...

    Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

    It seems designed to avoid it. Most of the dueling is side by side and not passes/near misses. The only one of those seems to be at the front when they swoop past each other at the midpoint out front, but they built a barrier between the tracks. And glad to hear many single rider lines in...

    safe to say we will miss epic universe?

    No official announcements but many rumors from insiders that this will be the case when the park first opens. Makes sense as a way to help manage crowds and bring in extra money from them buying tickets too.

    safe to say we will miss epic universe?

    I have a feeling it will be like that. Packed resorts, but EU taking the brunt of the crowds and less at the others. However, I could see people tire of the crowds and hop over to the other parks too, or AP holders hit the main parks heavy expecting it to be slower too since they won't have...

    safe to say we will miss epic universe?

    If you're coming early May there is a good chance you will miss the opening, but later in May could have a stronger chance. Nothing is set for the opening date yet aside from Summer 2025. End of May is considered the start of the summer season and many park try to open new attractions then, so...

    Percy Jackson and the Olympians

    Overall I'm still enjoying it, but it does feel a little lacking as well. Not sure if it's budget or what but I am not liking how all the big confrontations are over so quickly. Would have been cool to see Medusa kind of chasing them through the statue garden, and get more with the chimera (but...

    Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith vs The Incredible Hulk Coaster

    It's very close for me. As The Hulk's launch an first few elements over the water are fantastic, but I'm not as big on the back half of the ride, an the area feels very bland. RnRC doesn't hit those same highs but overall think it has better theming and a pre-show, and still provides great...

    Echo?

    Overall I really enjoyed the first 85% of the show. The first three episodes especially were great, but was enjoying it up through the first portion of the finale. However, I felt like they really dropped the ball in this area. They were building up so much to a big confrontation then just clear...
