A bunch of deteriorating movie vehicles and a scene that's been ripping off the Earthquake attraction from Universal since 1989.

from my understanding when the bathrooms are complete by pan the old ones that are back in the corner will be turned into an interactive que so probably then pan will get a refurb

Yes, if only Earthquake opened before it, which it didn't. Try a year later. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_former_Universal_Studios_Florida_attractions
Why do Uni fanbois troll these boards anyway?

What opened first is irrelevant since MGM was a knee-jerk reaction to Uni's plans in the swamps. Re: reaction, as in acting in response to someone else's doing. No troll by the way, just a person that likes to point out the obvious.
I think he's referring to the original Earthquake scene from the California Tram Tour - which the Orlando one is based on - that opened years before.

Aye. Disney copied it, they just moved it to a canyon. But is has all the same stuff. Earthquake, moving props, flood, a truck and explosion. It's one of the most shameful Disney ripoffs (along with the new Fantasyland butterbeer).
I'm a fan of both resorts, by the way. But I can also see their faults.

if that were the case i think i would actually miss it, it has alot of the background of disney. i would be sad to see it go. in my opinion i dont really understand why we even have the play area. im keeping my fingers crossed that DHS gets carsland and finally puts an end to the car show.

100% agree with you on that one but I've seen a lot more repetition on Uni's side than the other way around. Most notably, fastpass, pins and vacation club.

Actually, pins as-is were sold at Universal before Disney, not the other way around.
And Vacation Club? Universal doesn't have a DVC equivalent...

Pins have been sold at the Walt Disney world resort long before universal even opened

pins go back to the medieval days. Trading pins are a different matter.

The Backlot Tour takes up such a huge portion of the Studios Property, and yet it has been allowed to fall into such a sad state of affairs that it is now firmly in the "skip list" when we visit the Studios. TDO needs to either just give up on the ride, or restore it.
Having the Backlot Tour in this condition is worse then not having it at all.

Personally, I think Universal should offer a discount on tickets to DVC members to see if they can swoon any unsatisfied Disney fans.
