I've seen the yeti in A-mode. Back during that short time when it was a crapshoot on whether or not you would see A-mode and you didn't know which mode you would get, yes it was disappointing if you didn't get A-mode. It does NOT, however, make or break the ride. In the end, it was only 3...

Disney built Galaxy's Edge in approximately the same time it took to build Diagon Alley. Universal also built Velocicoaster in approximately the same time. So maybe Universal built Velocicoaster kind of slow? Oh wait no, every project is different and it's not fair to make blanket statements...

What's ironic is, Disney is well-known for their tendency to coddle their bad behaving guests, while Universal has always had a much more "no BS", "if you're not nice then you don't get nice service" approach. But with COVID... Disney is regularly kicking people out for not following procedures...

Like most of you, I agree that Smuggler's Run is not great. But, at least it attempts to be what we want - a flight simulator. At least I didn't walk into "pilot the Millennium Falcon!" and get an omimover or something. You can reasonably make the connections between what people want, concept...

"I will those to continue to deny that Mario Kart is a racing video game rather than admit that Universal may have missed the mark once again." - Universal fanboys, Universal paid shills, and contrarians.

Guys!!! Halo is a racing game! It's perfectly acceptable for a Halo ride to be about racing the warthogs instead of shooting!

It's not, though. What other company consistently falls short of expectations? Nobody expects Six Flags to be anything more than a roller coaster over pavement, so if they deliver anything more than that, it's a bonus. Nobody expects much more out of Cedar Fair, either. Sea World/Busch typically...

Aside from the impressive amount of kinetic movement, this land looks somewhat poorly executed, and both rides look to be pretty awful. No other theme park company misses the mark so consistently, so thoroughly, and so inexcusably as Universal. I really don't get it. We know they are capable of...

Nah, BS. Get off your high horse. Disney is doing it right. Universal is the one now paying lip service to it. When a company promises "we will only let in a safe number of guests" and then doesn't do that, then it's their fault for not following their promise, not mine for attempting to hold...

It wasn't just this event though, it's been recurring every weekend since they made every ticket an AP. Though not necessarily reaching "capacity" other than Labor Day weekend, but still seeing overflowing queues and whatnot. Literally not an issue at all if the place bothers to do what they...

Universal's COVID procedures are basically just lip service on weekends now. It's sad and kind of scary. Even if the employees attempt to enforce the rules, it means f--- all when: 1. There are too many people in the park, way more than Universal promised they would limit, making social...

Universal seems to have decided that they're only going to pay lip-service to COVID safety procedures now. Sucks that Disney is the one taking all the flak for re-opening when they're still taking it much more seriously and appear to be the only theme parks in the US that are. (Perhaps not so...

What part of "Disney is being extremely restrictive of how many people enter their parks, and Universal is not enforcing any sort of limitations whatsoever" are you having trouble with? Everyone has the ability to check the wait times at both parks via their apps whether they are there or not...

I'm saying I can't imagine Disney being as bad as Universal at any moment of the week because Disney is actually enforcing an attendance cap. Universal has decided to make it a free-for-all, making it a nightmare on weekends.

Universal this weekend was a total nightmare. I don't believe they are enforcing any sort of attendance cap whatsoever as it was literally an average day. I have not been to Covid-Disney yet on a weekend, but I can't imagine it being as bad as this was. I also agree that Express pass needs to...

I find it a little peculiar that every vlogger, every popular Instagrammer, and countless posters are hyping this thing up as massive, a beast of a roller coaster, etc. The truth: It's not bigger than Hulk, Rockit, Manta, Mako, or Kraken. ... or Montu, Kumba, or Cheetah Hunt. It's an...

I won't deny that obese rednecks in ECVs is a common sight at Disney, but you do notice them more because they stand out more. I'm sure some of you have been to Old Town, right? On a Saturday night the place is filled with the lowest class trash. A Saturday at UOR is only marginally better than...

Nah, it's fine. It's just weird how Universal seems to not be able to decide if they want to go all in on theming and immersion, or just here and there. Universal's guest demographics skew slightly lower class* (and/or more teens and young adults) than Disney's and a lot of these people...

I'm not saying it doesn't look like a good coaster, but you can ride coasters just like it at your regional Six Flags or Cedar Fair park. It sucks that Universal is capable of greatness in theme park design but rarely swings for the fences. Also, they probably got tired of all their lower class...
