    Villain-Con Minion Blast (General Discussion)

    They should retheme Rockit to Minions and change the ride vehicle to a banana...

    Revenge of the Mummy Refurbishment (Late 2022)

    This ride can never be allowed to depart USF. It must be protected at all costs and so glad they kept the ending. All hail the cup of coffee

    Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

    I must say on this ride it really has never enamoured itself to me. Consider it a disappointment overall. The animatronic is really cool and the bat scene is good too but as others have mentioned it is all a bit abrupt and doesn't flow very well. It definitely could be something for the chopping...

    Disney's Hollywood Studios (General Discussion)

    Definitely feels like it needs more but I can't see anything happening until we are in the 2030s, at least. This is with their also ever-increasing construction times (pandemic did have an impact but they can't keep dragging that line around now). I am with you there also. I don't see anything...

    Disney's Hollywood Studios (General Discussion)

    Totally get what you are saying. It is absolutely in a better place than it was but it is in an in-between state of where it was and where it needs to be and it currently, D23-pending, doesn't seem to have a vision for how they are going to get there. To add to that I genuinely do not think a...

    Disney's Hollywood Studios (General Discussion)

    It is funny looking back at the hope in this thread in 2012 and talk of Imagineers cleaning up the "muddled mess of a park" and yet here we are and they've ploughed money in and it is actually maybe in a worse state? Don't get me wrong, I am very excited personally to see TSL and SW:GE but I...

    Epcot (General Discussion)

    The more I think of Epcot the more I am in two minds. It has needed work for a long time and I am glad that work is being done but it just seems like everything was demolished and now they just HAVE to build stuff but the higher-ups are not giving the budget despite making hand-over-fist on...

    Halloween Horror Nights 31 (UOR) - Speculation & Rumors

    It has been five years since I was last at HHN and I can safely say this year is the year I have felt the pangs of missing it the most. Even though not everything has been announced (maybe that not knowing is part of it) but seeing the merchandise and the back of the tribute store clues all...

    Universal's Epic Universe Construction Thread

    Damn, it has been a long time since I have been here as I didn't have a trip even on the horizon and it was just torture but these construction photos are so exciting

    Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Construction Discussion

    I haven't been on these forums for a little while and seeing how much progress has been made on this ride is absolutely insane. I'm looking at probably not being able to return to FL until 2021, which is killing me. I think I'm more excited about this coaster than anything else going on and...

    Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure Construction Discussion

    I'm sorry but Wagon Challenge did not get enough love. This made me chuckle. Well played

    Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

    I saw this film a couple of weeks ago. I think going in to it I realised that if you can accept that the franchise is quite silly then you will enjoy the film and I was right. I've grown up with JP and will always love it. It is Dino's, what is not to love?! Rotten Tomatoes was always going to...

    Console Gaming (General)

    I think Multiplayer is a big money-making machine with micro-transactions. GTA, Fifa, Madden, etc etc. However, it would be sad to see that become the driving force behind the design of any new console. There's a lot of people out there who enjoy games for their single-player storylines and that...

    The Last of Us: Part 2

    This has prompted me to play through the first yet again. I can definitely see the girlfriend getting the axe too, unfortunately. That works is just that brutal. The killings are unbelievably visceral but it is all part of the immersion for me. It makes it feel more real and desperate and it’s...

    E3 2018

    Spider-man does look great. Hopefully lives up to it because it has so much potential

    Console Gaming (General)

    I think Microsoft might be a little cautious to release a handheld because of the performance of the PS Vita. The PSP did really well at the time but with iPad and iPhone gaming quite high now and the switch being such a good console, I don't see families shelling out £/$300 on a handheld...

    E3 2018

    With everything shown, as of yet, The Last of Us Part II has stolen the show for me. It was always going to because the first instalment is my favourite game of all time, but the trailer and gameplay just looks unrivalled by anything else shown off, for me. Not here, but I have seen some people...

    The Last of Us: Part 2

    Just seen the new trailer. Wow. I don't even know what to say about that other than incredible.

    E3 2018

    I'm ridiculously hyped for Dying Light 2. The gameplay and the choice system looks ridiculously good and I was a big fan of the first instalment. I also had no clue they were working on a second. Gears 5 and Halo will do it for me too and Rage 2 is hopefully going to be a good one. I enjoyed the...
