    yesterworld did a podcast recently on the state of universal studios hollywood and it made me sad because every statement they said was true.

    Oh man, I think it'll be great. Those masks, the hall of mirrors part, the underground. I'm looking forward to it.

    Pretty much my thoughts on it. I think the atmosphere from this movie could translate beautifully to a maze.

    My brother and I are considering going again this year, and I’m very on board for this.

    If it's done well I'm sure I'll enjoy it


    Reservations are available for Oga's in WDW! I just booked mine for the first day of my trip in October.

    I will probably save the lightsaber for another trip. Something new to look forward to. I'm not ready to spend that much yet lol.

    I've got my eyes on a DJ Rex though

    I won't be going until Halloween of next year, so why not? Get all the huge excitement out of the way.

    my biggest concern for the lightsaber was transporting it home, but apparently it comes with a padded/TSAapproved carrying case that can qualify as a carry-on lol

    they really, truly do think of everything

    FINALLY made my way up to great adventure today and was not disappointed, didnt even have enough time to do every thing i wanted to and i was there for 6 hours. lines werent that long besides for a few rides (superman was particularly bad with how slow operations were and getting people on and off) theres just so much at this park its gonna take another visit to hit the few things i didnt get a chance to do. but, what i did get to do, man some of the best coasters ive ever been on. heres my ranking of all the things i did




    skipped batman because its basically a clone of the batman at the park i grew up going to for 24 years (six flags st louis). really really want to do wonder woman lasso of truth next time. but i think el toro is the best roller coaster ive ever been on. just top notch all the way through. and that first drops and following hills are unreal. superman was cool because it was the first flying coaster ive ever done, ditto with green lantern and standing coasters but green lantern was a little rough on my head. king da ka was obviously sick but ive done top thrill dragster before (albeit about 14 years ago) but i still kind of knew what i was in for.

    I really need to make my way up there. Still haven't been on King Da Ka, and with as many records it has, I'm shocked I'm sleeping on it.

    I just hope they don't rely too much on holograms, they just aren't as scary as someone jumping in your face. Same with Ghostbusters.

    I'm going next month, and I can't wait! Friend said to try to Fuzzy Tauntaun, but I'm not huge on peach so I'm not sure what I'll end up ordering.

    I’m so used to local lower budget New England haunted houses, so I didn’t even think about Universal using screen technology

    Ghostbusters is supposed to be the most “technologically advanced” maze they’ve ever built, or so I’ve been reading. I’m pretty excited to see what it’s all about.

    El toro is the last roller coaster to truly floor me. I’d be so bold as to say it’s the top wooden roller coaster in the country

    El Toro is really great.

    I’ve only been to SFGA once, and we waited three hours for Kingda Ka for it to break down and we couldn’t ride it
