Yeah. She posted that she wasn’t there, sadly.

Seems Tim is back on Universal’s good side though.

Genuine question….How does Alicia not count for media after all she’s done for this park?

Universal has always been very sensitive about non official info being presented on social media. That's why Brian is so careful about the info we share on the forums. It's very easy to be put on the 'uninvited' list. It took IU a long time to make the invited lists.

Understandable and still sad. I’d invite you if it were me @Alicia

Pretty unfortunate mistake to not have Alicia on that media list.

Whatever Universal's internal criteria are to make it onto such a list, sometimes you just need to look the other way and do the right thing.

I thought her content was always failrly above board. Although I get she discusses leaks and such, but most sites do. She also doesn’t post a bunch of click bait stories with false rumors. In fact she usually dispels misinformation. Well that’s a slight bummer , was looking for her thoughts

While a bummer, she’s already been and shared her thoughts extensively on the Theme Park Stop YouTube/podcast and Patreon. Just no MoM ride thoughts of course.

Honestly, she's given Universal better marketing/hype than Universal's marketing department.

She at least deserves a Captain Cacao gift basket & first access to the eventual meet-n-greet

I said the same thing but Universal evidently doesn’t like that so she has to get back into their good graces I guess.

@Alicia finds things in publicly available documents that Universal tries to hide, and she explains them succinctly without embellishment. And she is always unendingly polite.

Unfortunately, blowing the lid off Universal's UK plans did not amuse the people far above Orlando.

I mean yea she wields a lot of power in the Universal media space when it comes to leaks and such.

However it’s really silly that with this thing called the internet existing they don’t think people wouldn’t dig through details.

In my mind @Alicia is actually a Universal plant designed to keep us fed, positive and buying HTTYD sheep.

I’ve just got to say the one thing I love seeing is the amount of motion and movement everywhere.

Even the use of animated screens is a very nice touch.

Not to talk about trees again, but I did watch a video of someone walk the path from Stella Nova to Epic, and lordy god, that no-shade, right-next-to-the-tarmac-and-cars sidewalk is going to be brutal in the summer.

I. Am. Tired.

What a day. Overall, very impressed with the park. Not perfect. Has some things to clean up before opening but… yeah - it’s going to blow a lot of you away.
