[penguins_fan]

Hey everybody! I'm goin to Universal Studios in June (June 8th i think) and i know absolutely nothing about it. Anyones whos ever been there, What are your favorite rides? Any special knowledge about it (like the flag family or the talking garbage can, stuff like that), and is one day enough time to be there and get a lot in?
Also, i just wanted to clarify that this is my dad's account thing, so i'm not 42 hangin out in the teen forum, haha. So, anyone who knnows that, get back to me! Oh yea, and you can IM me @ msteryman73 (thats not misspelled, i spelled it wrong when i made it). Thats not my email address though, that would be tropicalblast55@hotmail.com. Email me.

i like USF and I wanna go back!
are you going to US or IOA or both? if you get there early you should be able to get everything done
I haven't been there since June 2000 but I know they added a fastpass type thing in

I'm not sure about extra info but there aren't really any bad rides, I enjoyed everything there
I love back to the future and JAWS is good too! I would say King Kong but they closed it!
IOA is a GREAT park if you love thrill rides! Spiderman is great,Hulk is great,Dueling Dragons is amazing! i love DD sooo much!

if you have any other questions you can just IM me at WDWfanatic288

USF is definitely awesome. The way they created the park is great because they made a lot of it look like a movie set, downtown chicago, new york, etc. etc..

I went in July 2002, and they do have fast pass. It's definitely a park for you if you love movies like I do. Terminator is definitely a must see for people who love the movie, the Gory, Gruesome, Grotesque Horror Makeup show is my absolute favorite thing in the park.

I don't know of any USF websites, but go to www.ioacentral.com for all your IOA info, and they have a little section for USF there.

Hey guys, thanx for the replies. I can't wait to ride the Terminator! I love that movie. And with the Horro Monster Makeup thing, do they make you a monster? cause that would be cool, or do they put the makeup on employees and stuff, which would also be cool. My main question, though, is what exactly is IOW, or whatever you guys were callin' it. I'm not big on abbreviations, so i dont really know. I figure that USF is Universal Studios Florida (tell me if i'm wrong). I just dont kno what IOW (?) is. I think that i'm goin there though, cause my dad said somethin about the Spidey ride. So if you could please get back 2 me, that would be very helpful. Thanx guys!

Islands of Adventure

Spidey was rated the #1 non-coaster ride in the world. It is totally awesome.

i've been to Universal 3 times i think.[ i have to much fun to count.] Some of the good rides are:




*Twister. [ jus like the movie, if u've ever seen it]
*Back to the Future
*MIB [ Men in Black, great thing to go on]
*Termanator


There u go. the whole park is reaaly great, if u pay attenion to it.
[if your going to IOA,which is right next to universal, is great to if u love roller coasters. the two best in IOA are HULK, and DULING DRAGONS. Those are the two best rides there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

rankings
1.deuling dragons
2.the hulk
3.popeys boat thing
4.dodley doorites disater falls

IOA is a theme park owned by universal and USF and IOA are right next door. You go along this walkway thing and then you can decide which one you want to go in (But you need seperate tickets for them both)!

Universal Studios is really good the best rides/attractions are:

Twister-You go in this room and stand behind a barrier and
discover what a twister is like for yourself!

Earthquake-the big one-The first bit is kind of boaeing but the ride itself is amazing. The idea is that you are stuck on a subway train when an earthquake takes place.

Jaws-You are on a boat when Jaws attacks and you and your tour guide have to kill the Shark before he kills you!

Back to the future-the ride- A brilliant simulater in which you have to defeat the baddie- Biff.

.E.T. Adventure-You climb onto "bikes" and help .E.T. get back to his home planet, listen out for .E.T. saying your name at the end!

Terminator 2:3D- This is a Part 3D film, part show this is a one of a kind experiance.

You can easily do Universal in a day if you get there early!

For information on IOA I suggest you visit the site www.ioacentral.com
