Introducing How to Train Your Dragon - Isle of Berk at Universal Epic Universe

[@idk-zt8rx]

Most Universal fans do not realize how lucky we are to have these really indepth promotional videos. As a Tokyo Disney fan, we still know next to nothing about Fantasy Springs and it's opening in June. This looks amazing too and looks like it could rival DisneySea in terms of theming! I really wish I lived closer to America so I could visit this Epic Universe...

[@AXander1978]

cause WDI has turned into total secrecy again since CarsLand/New Fantasyland days.

Disney: “we might be adding this in the future, here’s some concept art for what it could look like in the next ten years”

[@idk-zt8rx]

@@NationDarknessLMAO, American Disney parks fans have it the worst. It honestly makes me appreciate how for us international Disney parks fans, the announced plans are definite and are actually being worked on. Still, Universal seems to have the best track record recently.

[@shago6684]

love it! but I was hoping for a dark ride aswell!

[@ThemeParkOgre]

On the bright side it's all going to be a surprise!

[@modemlooper]

Disney just throws up a slide show and says: “we kinda want to do this” then they don’t. This is a fantastic preview and I’m sure millions are planning to visit.

[@brAnd7onX87]

Main reason why I love Universal. Whenever they release an idea the building starts the next day. They don't mess around.

[@tirzahmyers3392]

The first comment can just be the first four words: “Disney just throws up”. Pretty much sums them up lately 😆

[@Evangelionism]

Not true. That gives them too much credit. Disney throws up a pie and says, "We could do that, someday." And the trades interpret it as a guaranteed upcoming plan.

[@multiverse_media2023]

Until Disney can give us our Owl House theme park, we’ll be on Berk… riding dragons and being Vikings of the Norse world.

[@Dark_Kommissar]

Disney looks quaint and old-fashioned in comparison. The immersive environments at Epic are so detailed and look like a place right out of each of the properties they’re based on.

[@mattwo7]

Disney has Galaxy's Edge but beyond that...

[@Dark_Kommissar]

@@mattwo7 The main problem with Galaxy’s Edge is that it is not pictured in any of the films like Universal’s Harry Potter. They spent a lot of money on something that many don’t care about. I think that Cars’Land at California Adventure is a much better example of Disney’s ability to create a fully immersive environment. Cars’ Land is great.

[@RetroGirl1967]

@@Dark_Kommissar Absolutely 10000% yes. CarsLand (and the existing Harry Potter lands in Universal) work because it puts you in the world of the film. If you have seen the movie (or in the case of Harry Potter read the books), you know instantly where you are and it feels like you are really in the story. With Galaxy's Edge, it's Star Wars because Disney tells me it's Star Wars. Disney has been trying to make Batuu happen, but it isn't that iconic shock of recognition. It's not something you can reverse engineer overnight.

[@Dark_Kommissar]

@@RetroGirl1967 Totally, agree with what you said about Cars Land, the Harry Potter lands and Galaxiy’s Edge.

[@DrStarlander]

Agree, Universal's lands look very representative of the IP they are based on. Meanwhile, as a 40+ year Star Wars fan, I walk through Galaxy's Edge and while I can appreciate the "detail" and effort and expense, it causes absolutely no emotional reaction (except for Millennium Falcon, and a few other smaller props/elements). The entire land could be from a newer fantasy sci-fi movie I'm unaware of. I appreciate the bold ambition but it's a case-study of what not to do. Same thing for Tiana's Bayou Adventure. I love the movie. The new attraction is a whole different thing, largely unrelated to the movie. Avenger's Campus...again, what is this? A community college? It's a boring, uninspiring environment and doesn't represent any place in any movie. Cars Land nailed it. It had me dazzled when I first went. A case-study of what to do. It's the most Universal of Disney's recent projects (I now think we need to measure Disney's work against Universal as the standard bearer of great theme park work).

[@gnarwhal7562]

It's amazing how far Cressida Cowell's idea for a story with Vikings and dragons has come since she started with the idea at the age of 9. I love a good success story like How To Train Your Dragon's has

Honestly, How to Train Your Dragon objectively looks like far and away the best land of the 4. HP looks straight up cheap thus far, Dark Universe might be #1 if it just wasn't so small, (Expansions might change the position) HTTYD looks like magic in the same way as Disneyland does. (Or used too) It feels like Tom Sawyer Island, but with better theming and rides

Just like the designer/ engineer who said he rode seven times during testing, I have watched this video seven times to truly grasp the experience. Absolutely spectacular. Disney executives should hopefully be picking their jaws up from the ground and getting to work on a counterattack because if Isle of Berk is any indication of how amazing Epic Universe is going to be, we have some more videos coming our way that will be equal to this.

[@johnshoemakerpbc]

Agreed. Universal is putting Disney to shame. Disney has nothing quality in the pipeline for the next few years. Their first major new thing will be at animal kingdom in 3-5 years. They should have active lands being built at all 4 parks right now. But they can’t even figure out how to make lights work in the ground.

[@michaellang2430]

It's too late. It took them 1 bazillion years to copy and paste Tron. They've known about this park for YEARS and still haven't done anything to counterattack. Instead, they're taking the Orlando park profits and putting them into flopping movies and attractions at other parks. Doesn't make sense to me

[@Hiltegard]

Love the transparency Universal is showing with this park. Yet another reason why Universal is quickly becoming the best theme park company in Orlando and around the world. Thank you Universal! Epic Universe looks amazing and I can't wait to frequent this park. 😁 IMO: WDW is quickly falling behind with it's old secretive ways, constant price increases and persistent benefit reductions. With WDW, everything is an upsell now and nothing is included anymore. Especially for Annual passholders. UOAP has so many more benefits included for a lower price. Whereas the only benefit WDWAP offers are discounts to buy more stuff/services. So I Traded in my WDWAP for an UOAP 2 years ago and LOVE IT. Now we go to WDW only 1 week a year but visit UO at least 2-3 weekends a month all year.

[@SnapChit]

There really is no reason to compare this to what Disney is doing because Disney is doing amazing work as well, even if they are not adding major expansions to their theme parks. Their amazing work is reflected more in their promotion of diversity and inclusion. For example, they are providing representation to marginalized voices, such as queer and non-binary people and others within the LGBTQIAS2+ community. They are bringing black and brown voices to center stage with incredible attractions like Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Moana’s water fountain in the EPCOT. They are elevating women to higher decision-making positions all throughout the company. Disney doesn’t need to expand their theme parks anyway because they are fine just the way they are. They are four theme parks, and that’s honestly enough for most theme park guests. What is needed now is to showcase diverse voices and inclusive stories. Disney does that better than Universal in every possible way.

[@OfficialSapphirePhoenix]

@@SnapChit What in the ChatGPT is this response? You sound like a Disney bot! 🤪 There's PLENTY of reasons to compare the two, because they're direct competitors with each other and tourists WILL be comparing the two no matter what when they're deciding where to go for vacation. The theme parks are literally next to each other, so how could you not??? Also, Disney's extreme focus on woke diversity and inclusion has DAMAGED the brand. Their theme parks have low attendance, box office flop after flop, stock crashing, public opinion of the brand is sour, and they're losing their core audience to woke messaging. A glorified water fountain queue and reskinning a subpar IP over a superior IP is NOT gonna convince people Disney is doing better than Universal right now. They can't expand the parks because they don't have enough capital. That's why they're giving cheap rethemes and "experiences" instead of new rides, new lands, or theme parks.

As someone who fell in love with and grew up with this series as a kid, this looks amazing! I love the little details like the statues as you enter Berk, which is in every opening in the movies, Hiccup's house, and the Great Hall (which is what it is called in the movies, not Mead Hall, but I understand if they had copyright issues with the Great Hall in Hogwarts). I hope we get to see Gobber's workshop where Hiccup made Toothless's tail and I can't wait to find more easter eggs from the movies. The only suggestion for future additions is to add a flight simulator type ride (like Disney's flight of passage but better because it's Universal) which should definitely be tabled as an expansion. You could show places you didn't have space for in the actual set, like the grotto where Hiccup did the iconic hand touch with Toothless. You could create a hanger front set, and since the hangers use the cave networks under Berk, can use that as a que. I was about 6-7 when the first movie came out, and growing up I always had dreams of flying on a dragon and going on an adventure with the six. The movies have been around for about 15 years, so there is a good enough fan base in young adults who feel nostalgia with this place. Dark Universe has monster's unchained, Super Nintendo has an augmented reality mario kart, and Ministry of Magic probably has a big attraction in that huge building on the map. It would blow it out of the water if HTTYD got to have something too, although I understand that they want to move away from screens and go more set based, and the coaster is a great way to show off their hard work, but actually being ON A DRAGON? It seems like something to think about.

Ryan, I’m definitely gonna cry!!! Thank you to the entire behind the scenes team, creating magic like this really is important work and I’m so grateful!! 💜

If Universal keep this up then Disney will be left in the dust. Great to have some solid competition!
