Its a simulator ride that takes you through the Nick studios, which no longer exists at Universal. They do things like blow bubbles, and bounce lights off of places. Is it worth it? Ehhh...if you have kids that like Nickelodeon, though some of the nicktoons that are in it will be lost on younger kids.
Yes, it's a motion simulator ride. And it does the chicken dance....I recommend riding it just for that. Children will probably love it. It is not a "can't miss attraction" or anything spectacular but I enjoy going on it every few visits.
We have to ride Jimmy Neutron when we go! Sometimes, it can make you a little dizzy from all of the fast mostion on the screen, but it's a really cute show/ride!
I love this ride! You are sitting in a "car" or I guess, space ship, and there's a huge screen in front of you so when you are watching the screen it makes it seem like you are actually flying around in the space ship. The ship moves with the show that is in front of you. I laugh through the whole thing, I think it's great.
First, IMHO, the "chicken dance" is the best reason to ride this attraction! Second, it's WAY BETTER than the Hanna Barbera ride (rode 'em both last summer and JN blows HB outta the water!--but, agreed, same type of ride)
We did the Jimmy Neutron ride four times on our last trip in one day! The kids (aged 9 and 7) just loved it - they're really into Nickelodeon. The funny thing was that my husband and I really enjoyed it too and laughed our way through it. The chicken dance at the end was the best))
