Universal Epic Universe News Update - OFFICIAL CONCEPT ART, NAMES ANNOUNCED, & CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS

[@ThemeParkStop]

Anyone else getting emotional?

[@Ihartwalrusguy]

Me just jealous that Hollywood couldn’t even afford a second gate.

[@haydehoo]

I’d be if my predictions were that on point 🔥💯💯

[@caloob_]

Even after seeing all of your updates and being up-to-date on all the rumors, actually seeing it all displayed and talked about was overwhelming ❤

[@moneygrabbercodswollop8133]

I was pretty close once Super Nintendo World was on screen. I’m fighting it as we speak

[@Enthusiastically460]

I watched the trailer like over 10 times today....I'm more than ecstatic right now😢

[@Occupant]

Today is a victory not only for Universal, but for Theme Park Stop. Theme parks like Universal are stepping up their game because of the fan community, and no journalist informs the fans better than Alicia Stella.

[@briansieve]

Very accurate coverage by this channel for years now. Thank you

[@matthewulmer4932]

Agreed. I love this channel!

[@UmmYeahOk]

I definitely will say that yesterday I couldn’t help but think “she was right about this… she was right about that…” throughout the entire universal video.

[@Kev-O33]

fact. all these other people just pump out videos day by day and they cant even speak properly

[@josiericaro3347]

You’ve been spot on 🔥 good work. Love your videos

[@MysTaeryColorful]

I woke up to the email announcement from Universal in my inbox, and then spent the entire day checking KZbin for an update from Alicia Stella. Now I'm impatiently awaiting the next episode of ParkStop Podcast to hear Alicia and Ian spill ALL the tea about it!

[@jocelynsantiago7154]

Same! 😆

[@Candycane-Foxy-YT]

I also woke up to a Newsletter from Universal Studios

[@Viking_Luchador]

Am I crazy for thinking we can expect an announcement for an earlier than expected opening date? Tiana's Bayou Adventure was projected to open in Winter but just got bumped up to Summer! I think we might be looking at Spring of next year for EU

[@GameXplain]

Congrats on 100k subscribers!!! What a perfect day for the achievement! 🎉

Great day for us Universal fans, but a huge thank you to Alicia Stella and her incredible coverage over the years. These park updates have allowed a large number of people come together in excitement for what’s shaping up to be an amazing park. Thank you again! :)

[@justincosplay]

the reveal wasn't really until theme park stop made a video expanding on everything they didnt say ! :)

[@brandonninomtz336]

This is truly amazing. Such a huge milestone for Universal, you can tell how much care they put into their parks. Blowing disney completely out of the water especially with Epic universe, HHN at Vegas, and The Texan park.

[@jordanwhite352]

And soon the UK!

[@SwetyBoi]

WOOOOO were so close!!! Your coverage on this park has been Epic in and of itself. We appreciate you Alicia! SEE YOU THROUGH THE PORTAL

[@christophermirabito9544]

Actually, thank YOU, Alicia. This is one KZbin channel that I can always depend on. It’s a constant source of something to look forward to. Keep up the great work.

Nice to see you here!! Can't wait to see your videos on Donkey Kong when that opens up at USJ

[@blackellegirl]

Oh my God! Your analogy is so perfect! 😢I’m so excited!

[@miranimal]

It reminded me heavily of ThrillVille on PS2

[@Becauseimme]

[@Josh-of8ro]

You’re the best Alicia. We all really appreciate everything you do.

[@FTChomp9980]

That trailer made me proud to be fan of Storytelling in Theme Parks that video was so good! The Portal Themes were so good to make it more immersive we Floridians have a lot to look forward to in 2025! Wahoo! It's a Go Time!

Thank you for always keeping us updated. 2 days ago I think it’s safe to say you are the go-to for info on Epic Universe. All your tireless research and it is all true. Congrats on your work and in the time to come. If anyone deserves a media pass or to be there on Opening Day it’s you since you’ve been a big part in building up hype Saw many videos today about the EU release. .but waited to hear from you first Alicia.....you are Miss EU Alicia took such a big part in following the construction up until now, she deserves her name on a hotel... oh wait! 👀Is this a dream? I can't believe that Epic Universe is indeed a real theme park What an exciting day! Thanks for keeping us updated Alicia since before the park was even announced! Let's get that 100k!! I Wonder How much money this is going to cost when complete. (ALL the land, all construction & rides)...So impressive to see such a giant project in the middle of a city already filled with Theme Parks. Ever since I heard about this channel and since I heard about Epic Universe opening up in 2025, I have been following them for all the latest news, rumors, and updates. Thank you Theme Park Stops and Alicia for everything, especially today, with so much info and details. Can't wait for 2025! As someone who’s been following since COVID-19…seeing this all start to really come together is so emotional…like wow I’m so excited to see what there is to entail Congratulations Alicia! Best and most accurate info on UEU for years now. Looking forward to your continued coverage. BRAVO! Round of applause for your continuing coverage of this first, it's clear with exceptional detail. The park looks incredible now, when everything is bedded in, and grown with the final details installed, will be on another level Congratulations Alicia on all the hard work you and Bioreconstruct have done in the past few years. I don't think there's a single person out there right now with park news/construction reports this reliable, which are also so well explained every single time. Practically everything said in the video Universal released was stuff you already reported before, which is a pretty big accomplishment This must be quite a day for team Park Stop. You got EVERYTHING right. What a day. Congrats on all of your success. And THANK YOU. I’m beyond excited. Also happy that all your hard work has been validated. Can't wait till the lands are officially revealed. As a Donkey Kong fan, I feel so spoiled getting a whole mini-land-themed to him.
