    Epic Universe is the lowest rated theme park in Orlando

    And more will appear if more people are tipped off to look for it. Therefore I think doing both is beneficial.

    Epic Universe is the lowest rated theme park in Orlando

    Yeah, but it's just as likely that it gets ignored until enough people complain. When you post these things online in places that come up in searches about the parks, it draws public attention to the issues and causes more people to take notice and speak up.

    Epic Universe is the lowest rated theme park in Orlando

    No, but that doesn't actually get the issues fixed. You typically get an apology and maybe some form of compensation. Pointing these things out online is probably more effective in getting them to fix things. Yeah, something's up here. USF/IOA are typically pretty good with their ride show...

    Epic Universe is the lowest rated theme park in Orlando

    Finally made it back and I will say that the park did not feel like unorganized chaos like it did this summer, which was nice. The day was pretty chill, but I do have to point something out here - a shocking amount of "bad show" elements: The "game" froze halfway through on Mario Kart No sound...

    DAK “Zootopia” is being created for the Tree of Life theater

    Yeah. And they produced quality. So the issue lies with the fact that these fresh young Imagineers and project teams are being led by people who were in the same position as them only a few years prior. The philosophies of the company have been almost completely filtered out by too many cycles...

    DAK “Zootopia” is being created for the Tree of Life theater

    With the way the corporate culture is at Disney, I don't have much faith that the people chosen for WDI are actually the best people for the job. Disney is all about promoting those who are the most likeable and not those who are best suited for jobs. I know this is also a problem at most...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    I'm fully aware that they're there to answer questions. The part I take issue with is placing Walmart lawn games in front of a big, beautiful, expensive E-ticket. I get what whoever decided to do this was going for - "give them something to do instead of nothing", but the result is it is worse...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Well, no, I'd be satisfied if they did what I suggested.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    This is really tone-deaf lol. It would 100% be better optics to have nothing there except employees to answer questions than to place unthemed lawn games in front of your brand new E-ticket with a beautiful facade.

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Man I'm sorry but Epic has possibly the worst sightlines in all of the Orlando parks in terms of both: 1. How much you can see, but shouldn't 2. How much thematic immersion said sights are breaking. So for instance, seeing a back of house area blatantly on display in the station for Mako at...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Galaxy's Edge: We loaded it with world-building details, made it look like a plausible full-scale spaceport (with only the fact that the resistance base is right next to the spaceport being a thing that is obviously space-constraint dictated), flexed our creative muscles going all-in creating a...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Friendly reminder: Constructive criticism of Universal, the theme park company I've chosen to align my identity with, is NOT allowed. Universal is ALWAYS better than Disney, and when they're not, its because that aspect actually doesn't matter and only Disney Adults would care about it.

    Expedition Everest effects status watch

    It should be addressed that the rockwork around the structure itself is looking very filthy. It's all covered in "Florida rooftop grime" and a lot of it has turned black. It doesn't look like natural dirt, but I'm guessing Disney hopes it does and that is their excuse for not giving it a facelift.

    News Hatbox Ghost coming to Walt Disney World's Haunted Mansion

    Not trying to be rude, but, tell me you haven't worked at Walt Disney World without telling me.

    Unpopular opinion: the new lighting on Spaceship Earth is bad

    Remember everyone - whenever someone posts something you don't agree with on WDWMagic, just pull the "you're adult, why are you caring so much about a theme park??" card even though you're also here, posting and caring about a theme park. :rolleyes:
