Exciting NEW Changes at Universal Orlando

[@cloismagic]

Hearing Tyler’s monologue about how much he loves the Universal parks reminds me why I subscribed to you guys. I grew up in south Florida so I’ve been going to all the Orlando theme parks for over 20 years and Universal has given me the best memories, so to see your genuine love for the parks and everything they have to offer brings me so much joy because it’s exactly how I feel about them. The history, the growth, the atmosphere- it truly is the happiest place on earth and I’m so thankful you guys share all your tips and general fun 🩵

[@metallicnole4514]

I miss some of the classic attractions like jaws and kongfrontation. Not that I have a huge affinity for those movies, but the experience they provided. They used movie sets, practical effects, and even live actors on the ride. It truly made you feel like you were in the scene of a movie instead of watching it on a screen. I still enjoy universal, but this was the true magic of the park that is now lost.

[@cloismagic]

@@metallicnole4514 yeah I loved Jaws, and I remember being a bit scared of twister and earthquake when I was a kid 😂 but I feel like I would have appreciated them more now as my love for film grew. I wish they would lean into those types of attractions more instead of just a screen experience. Some changes have been great, but others (FF) not so much.

[@metallicnole4514]

@@cloismagic Jaws was awesome. I know it was a maintenance nightmare. But it was a truly special attraction. The boathouse scene was the one of the scariest things on a ride I've been on as a kid. I wish they still had attractions like this. It was truly immersive

I think "for science" you should buy a frozen butterbeer, take it home, and freeze it into popsicles to see how it will be if the parks actually get them

11:56 Monterrey chicken from chilis. Much better making it at home. Use an all purpose seasoning to season 375-450 on the grill until it’s done Preheat iron skillet in the oven When you temp chicken at 150-155, add to iron skillet with bbq sauce until you get 160. Add bacon Add cheese Put it on there to melt. Sorry, my wife and father-in-law love it so I make it a lot. And we hate English peas in the Cordell household.

I was just there, and in all honesty, as much as I would rather have the 3d rides, my gf and i both agreed that this was better in regular 2d screen. But if they they dare to take away the 3d from spider man or transformers, I'll boycott.

Tyler is all in his feels in this vid. Lol. I totally get the feels for the anniversary though, we live near Kings Island in Ohio and we've been going there for years, even as kids with our families. The park celebrated it's 50th in 2022 and the wooden coaster The Beast celebrates 45 years this year itself, which is insane to think about. Totally getting the retro merch they came out with this year for rides The Beast and nostalgia rides they've replaced. All the emotions and memories tied up into these parks are hard to describe to those who don't go. Speaking of, when are y'all making a Cedar Fair parks run up here in Ohio, Kings Island and Cedar Point are close enough together for one trip. We'd love to have you!!! 🙂

I totally agree about how different the rides are when they take away the 3D. I agree with Anna, I don't like the Minion half as much as I did when it was 3D. The glasses are not my favorite thing, they normally hurt my nose, but I still like the rides better with them. They took the glasses away like the week after my last visit.
