I’d like a few more indoor attractions for rainy Florida, but this looks next-level. Super Nintendo World in Uni Japan is incredible, and it’s obvious that the top-tier Imagineers have fled a sinking ship for other companies like Uni. As a long-time fan of Disney and especially Epcot, I’m sad to see the golden years fade away at WDW, yet I’m also excited to see another company unexpectedly run with the baton! This is the closest we’ll ever get to Tokyo DisneySea in America. As long as Universal keeps investing into its parks and doesn’t just stop when Epic Universe opens, the company has a solid chance of outdoing everyone else.

I was waiting in the line for Hyperion at Energylandia Poland and I happened to be standing next to a guy from the Universal equivalent of Imagineering along with a guy from intamin who was part of the Hyperion design team. They would not say much about Epic Universe due to NDA but they did say that he has seen some of the new technology being tested that's coming to Epic Universe and it blew his mind. He felt sorry for Universal parks because they will be left in the dust when it opens. I suggested he was talking about the fake trick track at Mario and he laughed and said no it's way more cool than that! Not much information but it was a nice chance encounter and sounds promising for things to come!

Awesome video as ever - love that your content doesn't stray into click bate rumours and speculation and is based on solid research! Really enjoying seeing the park come together - this sort of thing doesn't happen very often! Although one thing I do wonder about is the water treatment / sewage works that was nearby the Epic Universe site - I seem to remember when they first broke ground there was a lot of questions around what they'd do about unwelcome smells!.....not sure if its an issue, but I've not heard it mentioned since
