    I am sooo out of touch with Universal, I haven't been there for 10 years!!

    The only rides I can remember are Earthquake, King Kong and ET, but they are classics - I hope they're all still there?

    Looking forward to being able to see Harry Potter land or whatever its called...!

    King Kong has gone, Earthquake has gone- but the thing its been replaced with is very similar.

    E.T. is still there :)

    The only classic left...

    Disaster is now in place of Earthquake...same attraction, just done in a slightly different way! It's a nice change, and funny too.

    The Hulk and Dueling Dragons are joint-first for me, can't pick between them
    Spiderman and Dudley Do-Right come close second
    though I love Jurassic River Adventure, and Popeye and Bluto: dammit I can't pick!

    Universal Studios is easy: Revenge of the Mummy has no equal. Mwahaha ;D

    Yea, revenge of the mummy is the best ride at universal. Islands of adventure has too many rides to choose an ultimate best.

    I'm very partial to a bit of Men in Black and ET. Then again, I'll do any ride! (so long as it doesn't spin constantly...so no Mad Hatters Tea Party, unless you turn the cup so you face the same way the whole time!, and no Mission Space orange side. No thanks, been there, done that, did not appreciate the day long headache). Unless of course, you force me on it in a good mood haha!

    my dad always does wierd names too if we let him - last time I think he was Mohammed (the guy didn't bat an eyelid at an elderly white guy called Mohammed - credits for that!!)

    I love ET - but not the start when you're being chased by the men :(

    want to see what the simpsons is like tho, back to the future occasionally made me feel ill, so maybe this will be better?


    and I liked the flying unicorn, last time I was there it was still there! shame to think it isn't there any more - trip merrily on your way....

    the simpsons ride is awesome, I was on last summer in California
    the amount of theme jokes and Universal/Disney parodies in "Krustyland" is hilarious
    i.e. "Captain Dinosaur's Pirate Rip-off"

    I loved back to the future. Gutted it's gone! All the big coasters are a winner though. And Popeye!

    those videos are even better on the Simpsons Ride
    the dummies have been replaced with Itchy and Scratchy: let your imagination run wild with that ;D
