It looks amazing in real life.

We got a load of pictures from the Orlando Eye on our trip just gone, it does look fabulous and huge. Yes, we could see the metal structure that had gone up in the Monsters area.

Another update with the Super Nintendo world.

I'm way too excited about Epic Universe considering it's still so far away. I've already convinced myself that I should find a way to go to the opening, whenever that is, knowing how crazy it's gonna be. But I've never been to an opening before and I feel like the public energy is just going to be too good to pass up on. A new Orlando theme park!

I am SO excited for this. I don't plan on being there opening day but I would love to visit sometime when it opens. I wonder if they'll control crowds the way Universal Japan did and make people sign up for a time slot to visit Nintendo World (kind of like a virtual queue but you could only sign up when you're physically in the park).

Another update on Epic Universe.

This will be my last update for awhile. I thought people would be interested in seeing Epic Universe construction.

Thoughts on tickets to Epic? Do you think there will still be a two-park option or will the base ticket include all three parks (not including VB as water parks are their own thing)?

I think it will be similar to how Disney does it. Universals base ticket is only for 1 park. They do have the park to park ticket. I think they will have a ticket similar to a park hopper for all 3.

That's my guess too. They will have base (1-Park) tickets and multi-park tickets, but not a separate two park ticket. Volcano Bay will probably have it's own separate tickets and add on option to other tickets.

I think that ride will end up being the most popular/most talked about in the park.

Rumor is that universal had deal with mack rides to build the racing coaster in the hub and a splash battle in how to train dragon then saw the success of the lastest version of the extreme spinning coaster(ride to happiness in Europe) and did a deal with Mack for a similar extreme spinning coaster in classic monsters.

I think they will probably ask Mack to go further than the 55mph and 6 inversions of ride to happiness. Even if it's just 56mph and 7 inversions it makes it easy to advertise.

Making the coaster alone thrilling then with horror theming to the levels seen with velocoaster/hagrids it will be unique and cater to for older teens and young adults.
