My mom worked in Universal since day 1, so it's always been a part of my life. My dad soon got a job there and then my brother and myself were both hired at the same time! 20 years later we're all still proud team members of Universal! It's been a 2nd home to me, and I honestly can't imagine working anywhere else!

The Universal I loved! If only they had that creativity now instead of just screen ride after screen ride 🥲

I was there opening year and every year after, which is why I can say with a fair degree of confidence that 90s Universal Studios was, as you stated, absolutely peak performance Universal. Cheers.

I really appreciate my parents for taking me so many times, because it was a great time to be a kid in the 90s at Universal. Also, with how popular Beetlejuice always was and with another new movie coming out, I feel like they should bring back the Graveyard Revue.

I took my little nephew on the Earthquake ride - he literally pooped himself. Thanks for the remind of a very funny memory.

The opening year or first few months at least the park was a nightmare. Most of the physical rides kept breaking down except for Hanna Barbera, and possibly Earthquake. it took years to get Jaws working obviously and even when we queued up for a long time for ET the moment we were about to go inside a pipe broke in the ceiling and they had to shut the ride. It was so bad, on the way out they were giving everyone tickets to come back again at a later date. At that point we genuinely thought that the park might not stay open hehe

59:44 This Earthquake attraction in my opinion can return as a Halloween Horror Nights 2025 attraction as Earthquake: Platform 13 but unlike the movie the subway station was abandoned by an earthquake with dreaded walls and jump scares even with a train horn

I believe the video has to be a mash of different time periods because it shows twister and the Psycho house as being in the park at the same time.

Loved this video Dave, I'm also from the UK in Kent 😀 However you said chances were very slim of you going there because you lived in the UK-that rather confused me as plenty of transport to get you to other countries lol Was waiting for th defunct: The Extraterrorestrial Alien Encounter. But never came lol Also the way you pronounced: Intamin made me chuckle soooo much 😂🤣🤣

OMG! Such nostalgia! Hard to believe the only remaining classic is ET🥲 I hope it never closes. From what I've heard Spielberg threatened to cut ties with Universal if they did and I'm right there with him. KEEP ET OPEN!!!
