Ready for the sequel to this for Epic Universe 2025!

[@cmike.skywalker]

Ah, such nostalgia!! I miss the old Islands of Adventure.

[@brianodonnell4496]

Don't you just missed the 1990's?

[@CJthecollector]

There all still there

[@chipchunemedia3734]

I miss Dueling Dragons and the lost continent. I really like the lost continent area, more than HP to be honest, even though HP is pretty cool. I just feel like all the other " islands" were designed for pure fun, whereas HP is 90% designed to sell stuff

[@Donyourmom]

Besides dueling dragons gone, and the wizarding world open, this park has not changed much since 1999, and that’s why I love it.

[@THX-bz8bi]

Brings me back to the early 2000's :)

And unfortunately, the other half of the attraction in the Lost Continent, will be closed to retheme to "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Hogsmeade" at Universal's Islands of Adventure!!! And then, Jaws attraction and the section of Amity Village will be closed to retheme to "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Diagon Alley" and "Hogwarts Express" at Universal Studios Florida, just like the movies!!! And there will be added into one more Islands as "Skull Island: Reign of Kong" at Universal's Islands of Adventure!!! Right?

I remembered watching this commercial back in middle school especially dodge commercial when it was sponsored by it and then 2 to 3 years later I went in both 7th and 8th grade year while having grad bash.

[@brandoncruise6398]

I’d love to have that robotic triceratops in or near my house, if I could afford enough space. While I’d love to see a park dedicated entirely to dinosaurs and dragons, It would be interesting to see rides/shows based on Florida’s own native mythologies.

[@brianodonnell4496]

"Land Before Time" could have attractions.

[@ogremation3766]

It’s really cool to know how all of these rides work, Thanks!

This ride blows Disney out of the water and has that 90's animated feel the one at Disney is more kid friendly and gives me the the Disney Spiderman homecoming tom holland vibes although I've never went on it ,before and prefer this over the Disney one.
