All things Universal Studios Hollywood

I'd be happy if they just reopened CityWalk soon (with free parking as they did in Orlando before they reopened the parks) so I could go somewhere local to just walk around outside that I could PRETEND I was sort of at a theme park.

 

[The Grand Inquisitor]

More than likely yes. I was going to ride it on the first AP preview day, which we all know was cancelled. That should be an indication that it was complete and ready to open.

Sweet! I really cannot wait to see the ride!

 

[The Grand Inquisitor]

This guy's video was very informative and watchable. Wow, a vlogger I can actually stand? The world truly has gone topsy turvy. He is annoyingly a HP geek, but I guess all millennials are except me.

The E.T. ride robots are in pretty horrendous shape.

Wow ET is in tough shape. I hope when kidszone gets replaced ET gets a massive refurbishment.

E.T. no longer runs the preshow with Steven and the cards for E.T. saying your name have been discontinued as well.

Thought there'd be this pets movie and universal studios branded pet products: collars, bowls, etc. Seems like a missed opportunity.

Universal’s merch is pretty awful, with the exception of the Potter stuff. They used to have better merch.

The Simpsons merch are pretty good though.

 

[The Grand Inquisitor]

Were there ever plans to clone the Funtastic World of Hanna Barbera and bring it to Hollywood? What about Jimmy Neutron or Men in Black?

It is. I also like the Universal Monsters merch.

True! I totally forget about the Monsters merch. I bet the merch for Epic Universe will be amazing.

Were there ever plans to clone the Funtastic World of Hanna Barbera and bring it to Hollywood? Most of the rides in Orlando have been cloned or are already at the park.

I think we got the Minons version of this ride.

Yeah it's the same system Minions uses. But I was just wondering if Universal considered bringing over Hanna Barbera over to the park in the 90's or 00's.

Universal Hollywood got a Flintstones show and Rock Vegas area both themed after the live action movies:

USH was always a Nickelodeon park. They had the Wild Thornberries, Rugrats and Curious George. The only Hanna Barbera they had was Bedrock because of the live action movie.

Wow that's pretty cool! I had no idea that existed.

Yeah that's definitely true. I wonder if we could see Hanna Barbera come to the parks especially since WB and Universal work so well together. Plus they are making new movies based on all of the characters like Scooby Doo and Flinstones.
