Universal just dropped the mic with this park.

LINK The video is the official announcement of the park and what to expect in it.

Lots of great stuff here for all ages.

Universal's been killing it lately. I haven't been to Nintendo Land yet but I heard it's awesome.

Was meh at the entrance, but when they start hitting their individual IP it hits its stride. Looks amazing, great content that has something anyone can get into.

I can’t wait to go but I will wait until 2026. When they open in 2025 is going to be crazy. I love Universal and can’t believe how much Disney has fallen in their parks.

Oh yea?!? Well disney just spent hundreds of millions of dollars to plant some trees in epcot and make a new fountain… that broke in the first few months and has the paint peeling off.

How big a mortgage you need to take out for entry?

Have been seeing the rumors about what it would entail for a while... Its very meh to me.

How to train your dragon and classic monster world, meh... Could have picked better franchises to go in on.

Nintendo and Harry Potter should be great though.

There are rumors around Simpsons land in Universal being converted to Pokemon world.

The only thing there that I'd be interested in is Super Nintendo World. But I'd check out everything.

I've been to Universal Orlando about 3 or 4 times, but haven't really experienced the movie rides since the 90s. They did a fantastic job back then and I always had a great time there.

As someone who has been to Disney more times than I can count when I was married and my kids were toddlers I went to universal in 3019 when my kids were teenagers and we had blast.

I’d still like to do star wars at Disney but universal is leaps and bounds better than Disney

Happy to see this come directly from Universal too. It thought the video was going to be a 3rd party.

Disney lost me when they turned the theme park experience into an Outlook appointment management experience.

The last thing I want on my vacation is a scheduled meeting for a ride.

Is it me or does all of these theme parks like disney creep you out? Its just something about people dressing up as characters and you don't know who is behind those costumes.

Universal is pretty awesome.

I'd take it over Disney, although Disney does a lot of things better

I have been to universal and I have watched a lot of things about this new epic park - unfortunately it drops the ball for me

Sure, it’s going to be be beautiful and pretty and cool and all of that but I prefer a six flags over this anyday.

I like to ride roller coasters and not wait in line to ride something while looking at cute que lines.

There just isn’t going to be enough rides for my taste in this new epic park
