I think the reason is due to the proximity of neighborhoods they had to tone it down..
Cinespec has both...
The show doesn't have to be arially or loud. A night time show is essential to keep guests in the park late.The longer guests stay in the park the more they're likely to spend !
In all the trips I have made to Universal (3 to 4 per year), and as much as I would like it to stay open later, it is just not needed. Each park can be fully experienced within the confines of 1 day each (without Express Pass). By early evening, wait times are generally low, even for Gringott's. From a financial perspective, it just does not need to remain open late. Not yet.

I'm sure it is a complicated equation. Staying open later will get people to spend more to a point. But as long as you are open through dinner, that "more" won't necessarily be food. It may be merchandise, but maybe not as people probably by the HP stuff they were going to buy no matter what. And staying open later is unlikely to bring in more gate revenue, at least not much more.
In exchange you have to pay to keep all the employees there later and have a shorter turnaround for the next day.
I'd like them to stay open until at least 9 every day. But I have no doubt they see diminishing returns staying open later.
Some people only take a day out to Universal, and do two parks in a day.

Your choices are yours and yours alone. The world doesn't revolve around them.
Of course. But not sure what that has got to do with the topic of a nighttime show. Perhaps they should have a nightime show in each park.
The exsisiting show is poor, seems like one long advert for their movies.

Cinematic Spectacular was created to celebrate the Studio's 100th anniversary, of course it is about the films.
Let's not be fesitus shall we .... the aim of a show is to entertain and thrill - it's not merely cobbling together a few clips of said studios movies.

Facetious? Your silly complaints are not serious issues.

I think Cinespec is fine for Universal Studios Florida. But could use some plussing now that the 100 Years celebration is over.
A good unique lagoon show at IOA would be welcome. And I really hate to ask for more live shows from Uni because most of them are painful. Horror Make Up and Grinchmas are the exceptions and they are both great.

I think Disney has better in-park stage shows, but Universal has better in-park street entertainment.
Do you consider the Blues Brothers show a "stage" show? I don't. I think the "pop-up" live shows are great. Disney does not have this in any comparable way. Do not say streetmosphere...can't compare...apples and oranges.

No, Cinespec - as stated - was to celebrate Universals movie catalogue.
And it does that very well.
Next?
