I am going to universal Orlando resort soon. Both parks. I need you to tell me which rides are Yay and which are Nay. I might not go if it snows. So I am actually hoping t does not snow. Off topic. What are the best rides and shows.

This listing is from my personal experience of rides/attractions done (unless otherwise noted).

Best rides/attractions @ Universal Studios (in my opinion):

* Revenge Of The Mummy (indoor coaster)
* Men In Black (dark ride)
* Hollywood Rip, Ride , Rocket (coaster; hadn't ridden yet, but i'm sure it's good...lol)
* E.T. (dark ride)
* Shrek 4D (show in 4D; you may get a lil wet)
* Simpson Ride (motion simulator; caution-may induce headaches)
* Jaws (movie ride)
* Blues Brother's Show
* Terminator 2 (3D show)

Least Favs @ Universal Studios (in my opinion):

* Twister (Walk Thru Show with effects; is ok when not busy, but not worth standing in line for a long time)
* Disaster (same as Twister)

Best rides/attractions @ Islands Of Adventure (in my opinion):

* Dueling Dragons (deuling inverted coasters)
* Incredible Hulk Coaster
* Amazing Adventures of Spiderman (best dark ride)
* Dr. Dooms Fearfall (freefall ride)
* Dudley Do-Rights Ripsaw Falls (if it's not cold and you dont mind getting wet (like drenching wet...lol)
* Jurassic Park River Adventure (see previous ride. You don't get as wet, but if it's cold it's no fun...lol)
* How The Grinch Stole Christmas Musical (show in Suess Landing; runs til New years Day) You can also get your pic taken with The Grinch (hence my profile pic/avatar)
* The Cat In The Hat (dark ride)

Least Favs @ IOA (in my opinion):

* Poseidon's Fury (see Twister and Disaster above @ Universal Studios)
* Pteranodon Flyers (hadn't ridden because im not a child and had no child to ride it with me...lol)

If I didn't mention a ride it may be because I hadn't ridden it or just forgot all about it...lol

[hdmech]

Thank you. I hope to ride all of these rides. Hoping the snow dose not prevent me to drive to orlando.

* Pteranodon Flyers (hadn't ridden because im not a child and had no child to ride it with me...lol

If I didn't mention a ride it may be because I hadn't ridden it or just forgot all about it...lol

then why mention pteranodon flyers?

How old are you? You just asked the same question twice...but to answer your question, dont miss anything! Why do people feel its ok to miss an attraction when they have ample time to see all. Dont let what someones else opinon about a ride be your decision to ride it. If time permits ride everything!

sometimes words escape when trying to describe how I feel but lately you have been reminding me of...

* Pteranodon Flyers (hadn't ridden because im not a child and had no child to ride it with me...lol

Because It was something I would like to ride but couldn't due to the restrictions. Therefore It could not be in my favorites. I guess next time I go I'll make sure I have a height appropiate child to ride it with.

but to answer your question, dont miss anything!

Yeah, but in the event that he CAN'T do everything, it's good to be able to prioritize. Coincidentally the only things I missed were the rides that cwgator put into his least favs list, so I don't feel so bad about missing them now.

You should definitely be at Rip, Ride, Rockit when the park opens. Lines may not be a problem anywhere else depending on when you go, but they almost certainly will for that coaster.

I think one of their parks has a new ride now... something to do with Harry Potter.

It opens in the Spring. No specific date yet on their website. They did a reveal of the exterior of the Hogwarts castle recently.

On my last visit to Universal Studios Florida, in was in October and there was nobody there. We saw the whole park and revisited our favorite attractions and still had lots of daylight to spare. So, we went next door to Islands of Adventure and found out all the people were over there, ridding all the thrill rides. We saw both parks in one day which wasn't planned, and that gave us an extra day to fill on our vacation.

We also visited Disney's MGM, and later filled our spare day at Disney's Magic Kingdom, figuring no one would be there at the end of the year. Boy were we fooled. I think that park stays crowded.

I liked MGM somewhat, but felt is was a poor attempt to be another Universal Studios, Disney style.

Man, I bet that is one awesome attraction.
