[Corey]

I've never been to Universal Studios and will be heading there in Aug with teenager daughters. What are the top 5 attractions that are "must-see" at Universal Studios? We are planning on doing Harry Potter at IOA.....but what are the other top attractions at IOA?

My Universal Top 5:

1. The Simpsons
2. Revenge Of The Mummy
3. Men In Black
4. Terminator
5. Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit

My Top 5 IOA

1. Spiderman
2. Incredible Hulk
3. Popeye Bluto Bilge Rat Barges
4. Dudley Doright Ripsaw Falls
5. Jurassic Park

I left out anything in WWOHP since you are going to tour that area anyway.

Our family is not a big fan of the "get wet" rides typically, so we skip the Bilge Rat Barges and Ripsaw Falls. Our top rides are:

1. Forbidden Journey
2. Simpsons
3. Spiderman
4. Revenge of the Mummy
5. Dragon Challenge
6. Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket
7. Hulk
8. Men in Black

All of the above get multiple rides. Jaws gets one ride and Jurassic Park River Adventure maybe two. We have seen Twister and ET and will probably not go back again. Also there are several good sit down shows: Shrek, Terminator, and the Hollywood Horror Make Up show are all fun.

If you do like water rides, i think Popey's is the best water ride in Orlando.

Planogirl, my 15 year old was really into Seuss Landing too, and next to WWOHP, we spent the most time there. We must have ridden the overhead train ride 8 times! Gotta love that express line. Of course, we also had to do Hulk 3 times and Ripsaw Falls twice. Spiderman and Dr Doom are cool, but only needed to do them once each. Over at the Studios, Men in Black and the Mummy were the favorites, we did the Rip Ride Rockit once too (no express, long line).
