Universal's Epic Universe General News & Discussion

I apologize if this has been asked and answered already, but do we know if the hotel express from HR, PB, or RP will be valid for EU?

I couldn't really sit and watch, but there was a version of this on a tv in the background today. Seemed to be HP focused with the mom going into the land and doing things before coming back out to get the family. Based on this ad, they probably have versions for each land and different families.

Doubt they'll all be on the SB though.

They've been using this ad, and versions of it, for a few months now. Here's the Potter one you mentioned.



I've also seen a :30 Dark Universe ad, too.

They haven't said yet, but I expect "no" like Volcano Bay.

While everyone is watching Kendrick diss Drake , I’ll be f5ing the UOR ticket page waiting for single day tickets .

I actually think this is a very strange ad. There is nothing in the first part that is "Potter" recognizable. No Hiccup and Toothless is only seen flying by in the distance? No Frankenstein? No Mario!?!

Mario and Toothless are in the ad.

Mario and Toothless are in the ad.

I looked again, the only time I saw Mario is the back of his head when they were starting at the beginning of the ride. Toothless is only seen flying by and only people who know his tail prosthetic would catch it.

Very strange ad.

Without wading into the "rigged" question, I do think it's certainly very possible that -- depending on how the game plays out -- many viewers will have stopped watching the broadcast by that point.

Obviously the spot will still live on via the internet, but Universal may not be getting its full money's worth in that late slot.

Probably respective fanbases will have stopped watching.

I will say tonight at dinner, my mom, who does not follow theme parks, unprompted goes “that Paris Harry Potter area looks immaculate”. So the marketing is reaching to some degree.

The kid is wearing a giant Mario shaped hat and driving a go kart . I think the idea is “you are Mario”

None of the hotels are having express for EU you will have to buy standard express at the park which apparently will not work for donkey Kong and ministry of magic

The first part has already been announced by Universal. You've already said the second part.

Apparently stardust racers TMs finally got ridership they finally got to ride

I saw a reply to a comment on FB from UOR that basically hinted at single day tickets going on sale very soon.

Well, any time in the next 100 days is "soon"

Bio is a hero. It's crazy the amount of content he's provided us from the time there was nothing on the site but a single tree.

Not sure if he drinks, but if he does, he should never have to pay for one on Universal property.

If Universal was smart, they would have had someone download every single aerial Bio has posted from the start. It is an amazing documentation of the birth of a theme park.

Someone with a lot of time or a lot of money could do a land by land time lapse from dirt to EPIC!
