"Down to earth jimmy fallon" a ride where you literally go to space & the moon

[@justinvanveenar2953]

It’s the only ride I actually got Bad Nausea from 😂😂😂

[@NocturneFexy]

One of the things I would like to see when MiB gets refurbished (if it ever happens) is not only brighter lasers so it can be easier to tell where you're shooting but also have them be different colors to differentiate your laser from other riders. Also, I agree that the park has too many simulators. Hopefully they can put in a ride like Secret Life of Pets or a major thrill coaster.

[@squimp8137]

i think the simulators make the park more diverse and unique unother like disney world and disney land, but i want more family coasters like hagrids motorbike ride

[@NocturneFexy]

@@squimp8137 They can make a park more diverse but if HALF of your rides is just being put on a box and being shaken about, then you've got a problem. At least Transformers and Gringotts spices things up just a little bit. I think we all can live without Supercharged, Fallon, and Simpsons (especially since that one in particular is now owned by Disney so it should be packing it's bags). Also, The Mummy is a great family coaster and I'd argue is on the same tier as Hagrid's but I think Studios needs another coaster, maybe Supercharged can be bulldozed over for one?

[@LordJameer4659]

@@NocturneFexy They should make a Fast and Furious dueling coaster.

[@NocturneFexy]

@@LordJameer4659 Much like West Coast Racers but bigger and better.

[@LordJameer4659]

@@NocturneFexy Also I realized that you don't need to press the button on mib all you need is to hold the trigger that's how I get a lot of points

[@Spoopmode]

This tier list is decent but I’d switch rip ride rocket and transformers. I honestly really don’t care for transformers at all. Minion Mayhem is also honestly kinda underrated, def not as bad as the other D tiers. While the actual ride is whatever, the preshow is really fun and might be my favorite in the park. I went recently and was surprised by just how good it was

[@darkpit12]

Great work as always! One of my favorite theme park channels. Production is A+. I have no doubt this channel is going to be huge soon!

[@hellomerio]

Thank you!

[@dared-6018]

Great list. I'd personally put Fallon as F cause it's just trash. Feels like it has no purpose being there would rather have twister back. Even with FF being a F their as well I'd much rather ride that then fallon.

[@bigboi5013]

Nice job! lol ive commmented on almost all ur vids

[@derekrequiem4359]

Nice list! MiB is my personal favorite for this park, even though it's becoming clear that it needs an update. I swear if they take it down and replace it with another minions ride I'm gonna be so mad 😂

[@HarryHanslip]

THis is the exact list i was looking for! Thank you!

[@HEquisM]

Minion over Simpson for me. While I prefer the Simpson storyline I can't get through this ride without feeling sick halfway thru with motion sickness.

[@briansieve]

I agree. I was SO disappointed with Fallon.

[@aandq2844]

when are you going to do the ride ranking for islands of adventure? i love your videos

[@hellomerio]

Thanks! I'm hoping some time next month, it's been on the list for a while now.

[@GamingGalaxy-27]

Just went to Universal a week ago, and they are redoing all of kidzone! The only ride left is E.T, everything else is gone!

[@jcsmith8861]

Rocket is totally underrated! It’s an air time machine in the back row! It’s so not fair how people see it. The ejector it offers coming into and out of the brake runs. The g forces you get in that upward helix. A really good straight drop. Any coaster enthusiast who likes air time would put this above the mummy. Mummy is a better ride yes but rocket is a top tier coaster not just one of the top tier rides in the park! Gwazi, mako, and velocicoaster are the only coasters better in the entire state 🤷🏻‍♂️ just my opinion.

[@benyboybob]

I agree sir!

[@cedarpointfanboy7317]

Front row ejector going into those brake runs was unreal

[@jake_the_creator8843]

This is a good list but I would change two things. Put rip ride at B I think the music and going straight up is fine I enjoy the drop I think its a fun coaster overall a solid b. and jimmy Fallon at c. I feel like it doesn't get the credit it deserves its a ride with good graphics doesn't make me sick its nice and a smooth stroll through new York a very relaxing nice ride a good c other then that perfect list. Personally velocicoaster my favorite at both parks

[@graffiti.777]

Bro Fallon is an F like his name what you mean? I love the race though New York, but with Jimmy Fallon? The ride probably would've been better if it was just Race through New York.

[@WatchDoggyDog]

@@graffiti.777 💀🤣 lmao, nah

[@WatchDoggyDog]

good take. I'd even give rip ride rocket an A, me. and he atleast let Fallon actually sneak above Despicable me and Woody woodpecker's there. also for the simpsons flat ride, it deserves a C for serving it's purpose just fine, and also looking so awesome to boot.

[@MrLProductionsOfficial]

I agree. Rockit and Fallon both get worse rep than deserved, imo

[@ryanremenap5616]

while i would out gringotts in s tier, i totally get that there are too many screens

[@brettdudenhoeffer3405]

Super unpopular opinion: Supercharger is objectively a terrible ride, that being said, I always have a huge smile on my face whenever I’m riding it and I ride it every time I go.

[@derekrequiem4359]

nothing wrong with having guilty pleasures 😁

[@zxcvisoncrack]

Ngl my favorite dark ride has to be transformers, people like to say it’s a copy of Spider-Man but it has its own special charm some how, for coasters it has to be velocicoaster that 200 foot top hat almost ripped out my soul no joke, but honestly I think universal is better off without the simulators, i would have loved a Slow Moving dark ride for Jimmy Fallon or a Minions spinning coaster, mummy is a good representation on how to use screens, Anyways just sharing my thoughts, Great video btw.

[@disneyparksstarwarslover7638]

Omg I love your profile picture I love owl house! Also a heads up…Woody Woodpecker, Shrek/Donkey meet and greet, Curious George, Fievel’s playland and DreamWorks destination are leaving! But ET is staying.

[@LordJameer4659]

@@disneyparksstarwarslover7638 Woody Woodpecker is staying but it is being re-themed

[@graffiti.777]

Bro my tier list is almost like yours except I'd put Fallon in F cuz why tf is there a ride based on this? At least F&F is a movie, but it's ride is still F as well lol. I'd put minions in B if they kept the 3D imo. Also, I think HRRR is A but that's my opinion as well.

[@darkpit12]

Supercharged belongs in S tier just based on the sheer insanity and comedic timing that ride brings

[@brendanpolichronopoulos3606]

Almost completely agree. I really think transformers needs to be renamed “Get beat up by megatron”. That’s the only ride I disagree with. Easy C compared to the other sim rides

[@vandersonvalley5924]

Revenge of the Mummy does need another refurbishment like Hulk as I think it has too much dead space in terms of thrills and lacks a bit in terms of decor in the main showroom floor. The light up billboards are cheap and feel very Verbolten. This ride could easily feature another helix to add to the thrill.

[@That-one-guy69375]

You should’ve put rip ride rocket at least a b tear in my opinion

[@tomdorsett5907]

Rip ride rocket should be at A tier it was quite a good ride

[@justinvanveenar2953]

I agree but I will never go back on it 😂😂

[@thewindofsuicune]

Transformers is one of the few rides that actually hurt to be on. The excessive and constantly shifting details on the models forced me to close my eyes the last time I was on.

[@chipzdipz4028]

agreed, rode it a month ago for the first time and i did not liked it. spiderman is so much better and i dont think you can even compare them except of the ride system😅 gringotts is a definitely s tier for me with mummy in this park!

[@Grace-ds8by]

I honestly love the jimmy fallen ride I think it’s just so cool I’d put it as an s and not many other people would it’s just so thrilling to me and the minions ride i would probably put it as an f it’s my least favorite and I also do like the fast and furious ride I would put it as c and the rip ride rockit at b

[@LilDudeMagol]

surpercharged is not the best ride it sucks. but anyways i also agree.

[@brandonthompson1995]

Hot take: I ❤ Jimmy Fallon, B tier

[@sharptojo6420]

F&F Supercharged could honestly be bumped up a couple tiers simply because of how hilariously bad it is.

[@vandersonvalley5924]

What’s funny is USF has more room to grow than IOA. They could add Hill Valley, Amity, and create an ET land. Also, Race through New York gets too much hate. The stigma of screens = bad is tiresome. Especially when Soarin and FoP are just outright simulators that get passes. Especially since FoP screen was blurred throughout the ride.

[@everyonesfavoritesejong]

Y'know I love BTTF, i like Jaws, and I love ET but I don't think any of those would be good expansions for the park.

[@vandersonvalley5924]

@@everyonesfavoritesejong What brings you to that conclusion out of curiosity? The reason I ask is because Ive noticed that they are investing a lot in those IPs when it comes to merch which means there is a demand. Not to mention I think having established brands in your OG park will help with its identity problem that studios has.

[@everyonesfavoritesejong]

@@vandersonvalley5924 Because well Legacy IPs aren't that much in demand by the general public. Maybe a land that combined multiple of these IPs together (or even better, an entire park) but as standalone lands within Studios, I'm not so sure.

[@dylangallardo2630]

@@vandersonvalley5924just because an ip has a great legacy, it doesn’t translate to a necessity for a land. Some ips don’t need lands just because it is well known and liked. I do agree that universal should implement the well known ips of universal as rides tho instead of the new ips being added

[@vandersonvalley5924]

@@dylangallardo2630 Except we know that they would and could as it’s based on the quality of the land and it’s attraction. E.T. I would update the entrance, which they are doing, and re theme the restroom and shop and quick service. Jaws could have the same ride system as POTC Shanghai and have a small version of Amity Island. Finally, BTTF would just be the town square with the main attraction in the clock tower where you have a roller coast that goes 88 mph.

[@overbanked]

IMO Fallon's ride is the worst attraction in the entire resort

[@everyonesfavoritesejong]

I disagree, I felt something with Fallon ride, felt nothing with F&F

[@Grace-ds8by]

The Fallon ride is my favorite ride in the whole park

[@overbanked]

@@Grace-ds8by You must be a huge fan of Fallon

[@Grace-ds8by]

@@overbanked i hardly know who he is I just like the ride a lot

[@keouine]

We all be so old when it happens, but I hear aFter Epic Uni is up and running, USF will get some more attention. Already there's no need for early park admission for hotel guests. and except for holiday weekends or high summer, it closes earlier than IOA. The pre-show is the worst part of Jimmy Fallon. Him in drag just doesn't work for me. Change it to RuPaul's drag race through New York.That wouild be more fun.

[@EdShaolin]

Mummy superiority 😎😎

[@thezemag]

Replace Jimmy Fallon with the Office

[@MiguelSantos-gi7vc]

Honestly Spiderman is the og and it is just better than transformers

[@mattbee4091]

MIB HAS TO GO!!!

[@DJDALESS2]

Gringots is S

[@coastercraziness]

I couldn’t understand why Supercharged was so bad until I rode it. I knew it wouldn’t be good, but WOW is it awful. The pre show about no phones is awful and cringe and the main ride itself is just awful, uncomfortable, and ridiculously loud for no reason. Awful awful ride

[@Ze_Zi_Animation_Studios]

I’m gonna have to disagree with you on the rocket roller coaster I’m sorry but it’s a good ride and totally underrated and has a really good straight drop

[@8675309858]

Gotta disagree on Supercharged I actually enjoy the ride a lot and it doesn’t deserve the slander it gets Severely overhated Now Fallon easily is the worst ride in all of studios Nobody asked for it and we lost twister (despite somewhat dwindling) which was still Ives by guests
