- Jurassic Park: The Ride is a water-based attraction based on the Steven Spielberg film Jurassic Park and Michael Crichton’s novel on which the film is based. The attraction is located at Universal Studios Hollywood and opened on June 21st, 1996. In this video we take a look at the research and development of the attraction as the film was still in production, the attraction itself and its success, and its eventual closure for an overhaul to an attraction based off of Jurassic World.

I take no credit for any of the footage used in this video. Use the above links to view the full footage and give those videos the views they deserve.
It’s a shame they don’t have the same focus on rides anymore and just use screens. Hopefully if they open a new park they’ll go back to more practical effects.
Fingers crossed they will if Universal does open a new park in Florida as it has been rumored for a while now. Practical effects>Screens.
Much like the reliance CGI for movies, it’s a cost issue. Screens are just cheaper than elaborate animatronics.
I agree, there's also less of a chance the attractions breaks down or scenes just don't work at all. Still a shame though, I really enjoyed those attractions from the 90's, just felt like you were there in the movies you watched growing up.
Theme Park History Absolutely, they were more immersive. I miss the good old days with practical effects in both the movies and (especially) theme parks. To their credit, Disney still shells out the money for great animatronics once in awhile like the Navi River Adventure. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey is a modern ride that used both practical and screen effects and in the end, that’s all I really want: a nice blend of the two.
I agree with you Elijah, Universal needs more attractions like Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. I was pleasantly surprised by the mix of the two and how it worked together. Hopefully they do something like that for Super Nintendo Land.
That countdown before the fall. I haven’t heard it in years. Made my heart sink. Literally childhood trauma😂
Looking at the condition of the animatronics now vs the footage from the 90s, this ride really did need an upgrade. It didn't necessarily need a complete re-theming and I think if they remove the footage of Hammond, that'd be a little uncool and disrespectful, but I am excited for more animatronics! Hopefully we'll get the Indominous Rex and maybe even the Mosasaurus! (can you imagine that while in a boat??)
When I rode this, I didn't know it had a drop.
Same I died when I got back down
😂
@@withinthefun721 how did you not see the drop, you literally watch it as you enter the bottom section of the park.
Pr0tal Player lol right?
Oh
CORRECTION: In the video we say at $110 million dollars, Jurassic Park: The Ride is the most expensive attraction ever built. As some have pointed out in the comments, this is not correct. After researching, we found out that Universal had billed it as the most expensive attraction ever built. Obviously being billed as something is just a way to describe the attraction and from what we have concluded is Universal most likely meant that Jurassic Park: The Ride was the most expensive attraction built AT the time (1993-1996). Obviously we took the source we used at face value and didn't do our fact checking. We apologize for any confusion we might have caused, we will make sure to do a better job checking our sources in future videos.
TL;DR: We said JP: The Ride was the most expensive attraction ever built, it's not. We dun goofed, sorry about that.
Theme Park History - hey can you do a video about the Alfred Hitchcock experience show & walk-around at Universal theme parks?
Consider it added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Michael.
BTW I love all your videos. Great stuff. 😎👍
you should do space mountain
So what is the most expensive attraction ever built?
This is my favorite ride at Universal Orlando. I was afraid they were replacing that one too but at least for now it’ll still be there.
I'm hoping it's still there when I visit the park again, it's more than likely that all off the Jurassic Park attractions will eventually transition over to Jurassic World due to naming rights being reverted to Chrichton's estate after the next movie comes out.
With the velocicoaster coming this summer, it’s only a matter of time. And I honestly welcome it. I really enjoy the jw movies and some of those animatronics really need an update (bent neck brachiosaur)
@@lauracoles5595 yeaaa the bent neck lady is lookin rougher than usual
It’s only a matter of time at this point
@@ThemeParkHistory *2 years ago*
This ride will never ever go away because it will remain a classic for generations to come
It's looks like new 100th birthday party anniversary celebration party years ago today TV series finale season start show hollywood story life look back
Thank YOU so Much! This is my favorite Ride and I'm sad to see it go. But Universal hasn't taken care of it, so it could use an upgrade. Thank you for celebrating Jurassic's 25th.
Spiderman
Thank you Bryce! It was our pleasure to cover the attraction, here's hoping that Jurassic World: The Ride is as good as the original!
Theme Park History
I hope it will be. From what we've seen the original Rex is still there and she's fighting a real Indominus. Thank you so much for the ♥️!
Theme Park History
A small request, before the year is up, can you please cover the Triceratops Encounter/ Raptor Encounter? It would be a great way to finish off Jurassic's Anniversary year. Thank you.
Someone posted a comment with a picture of the two fighting and I couldn't believe it. Fingers crossed that it will be worth it. We will cover both of those in a future video down the line before the year is over, we've received a lot of requests for them in this video.
"The attraction was an instant hit with guests. As wait times were over 2 hours within its first weeks of operation."
* Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure*
"Hold me butterbeer*
XD
It's STILL over 2 hours months later.
😆🤣
I saw a home video here on TH-cam of someone who was there opening day, according to him it was over 5 hours 😱😱😱
The wait for Hagrid’s was over 10 hours when it opened! I live locally and it was all over the news.
Man, this brought back some good memories! I remember going on this shortly after it had opened. Unfortunately, our ride took quite a bit longer than it was supposed to as our boat got stuck for about 20 mins at a 45 degree angle at the part right as you're entering the facility. Some of the people started getting headaches and nauseous from it (the kid behind us cracked, "I should have brought a book." To which his mom replyed, "Yeah, really." Then, right when we were about to take the plunge at the end, the fog in there fogged my glasses up, so I couldn't even see the T-Rex and was quite surprised by the drop! I wish I could have rode it again, though. It was awesome!
I'm ok with the re theming. I've been on JP so many times and over the years they stopped using certain elements of the ride. The explorer stopped dropping off the side. The diloposauras hasn't popped out of the water like shown in the video for god knows how long.
I was a bit more relieved when it was announced they were keeping the original ride system in place. I figured the way Universal has been doing things lately all the animatronics were going to be replace with screens. If you have the time Inside Universal has a POV of the ride from 1997, it's night and day to see the attraction in it's prime.
Yes, it is definitely time for an update.
Well enjoy the re theme while you can because universal is so cheap it will only operate as designed for a year or so
Just hope there is no screens
Man... I'm lucky enough to have ridden it back in 1996 and in 2013 when I finally went back the explorer was still working! But when I went back in 2017 it was all run down completely
Another reason the ride is being changed to Jurassic World is that when Universal purchased the film rights from Crichton's estate, they bought the rights to six films. As soon as Jurassic World 3 comes out, the film rights to the novel, and the name Jurassic Park, revert back to Crichton's family. Since Jurassic World is a name Universal themselves created, they will be able to continue using it after the rights revert.
YEP!!! ^ This is the only reason the rides name is changing. If Universal wants to keep selling merc, making Jurassic movies, and make a profit off of the IP they had to change the name.
@RampagingRex Productions I didn't even know this was a thing, none of the news articles about the closure even pointed it out. Thank you so much for shedding some light on it! Does this news most likely mean the end of the other Jurassic Park rides at all the Universal Parks?
Yes, one by one they will have to update the rides in all parks. Universal Studios Hollywood is the testing grounds for the update as the Jurassic Park section in that park is the smallest and will not require as much update to the ride and surrounding scenery. " Peter at SlashFilm reports that he’s heard a new Jurassic World land could be a part of Universal Orlando’s fourth theme park, which would likely be built on the giant patch of land they just acquired by the convention center."
Universal Studios has a very tight budget, one with their promise to build one new ride a year and two as they build Super Nintendo World in "Osaka, Japan, though Nintendo and Universal Studios also have plans to bring Mario and friends to parks in Hollywood, California and Orlando, Florida"
It will be interesting how long Universal Studios can keep the E.T. Adventure ride in Orlando open! They only left it untouched because Steven Spielberg threated to never work with the Studio as they have removed Jaws the Ride, Back to the Future the Ride, and had plans for removing E.T. Adventure. They don't want to lose him for obvious reasons but for not so obvious is that they would have to pay him A LOT of money if he leaves. "It appears Steven Spielberg will continue as a consultant for Universal theme parks beyond 2017. The director behind hits such as "Jurassic Park" and "Jaws" has had a consulting contract with Universal Orlando for almost 30 years, giving him a percentage of theme park revenue.
Steven Spielberg was the one who pushed Universal to make Jurassic World otherwise, I'm sure they would have held onto the Jurassic Park title and IP for the title forever, out of fear of losing money if the reboot/sequel would have been a box office bomb.
P.S. I love your channel! Keep being awesome!
P.S.S. I just wrote this essay from work lol

There's no way this logic will hold up in court. Jurassic World is obviously just a reboot of the Jurassic Park franchise.They still sell Jurassic World and the original trilogy in the same box set and they both use the same iconography. I'm not privy to the exact details of the deal but if it was the rights to six direct adaptations obviously that will never be reached since Chrichton only wrote to Jurassic Park novels before his death. If it was six total franchise films, then JW3 would probably be the last as part of that deal.
However that doesn't mean that Universal wouldn't be able to make any future films in the Jurassic franchise. It may mean they won't be able to use any more elements directly from the novels but that's not a huge loss. The Chrichton estate might be able to license the film rights to another studio but they would only be able to use elements from the novels and nothing original from the films.
For an example look at the LotR/Hobbit film adaptations. The Peter Jackson trilogies weren't the first adaptations of either, they received animated adaptations back in the 70s. But Peter Jackson wasn't allowed to use elements from any of them even if he wanted to. Even after the films came out there were some video game studios that had the rights to games based of the books and some based off the films. Obviously any elements that made it from the books into the films were allowed by both, but the studios that had the rights to the films couldn't use Tom Bombadil because he was a book-exclusive character, while the ones with the rights to the books couldn't use the likenesses of the actors or any original characters created for the films. Also when the Hobbit was looking for extra material to bloat it into a trilogy they were only able to take elements from The Hobbit itself, The Lord of the Rings, and its appendices, and not anything from the Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, etc. because they didn't have the rights to those/

Some history of removed Disney attractions would be cool... Like Superstar Limo (Disney's California Adventure), PeopleMover (Disneyland), Rocket Rods (Disneyland), Country Bears Jamboree (Disneyland), The Great Movie Ride (Disney World), Maelstrom (Disney World).
Our next video will be about a Disney Attraction, should be out by the end of the month. Your six suggestions have been added to the list, thank you for your suggestions Sir Isaac.
We definitely need a great movie ride video......Man, i love that ride.....
This is one of my favorite rides at Islands of Adventure!
It's up there with The Amazing Adventures of Spider Man has my favorite ride at the park.
Love learning about Theme Park history.
One of my favorite memories from universal studios orlando, was the horror make up show! It was super interactive, funny, entertaining, and very informational! I'd love to see what kind of cool stuff you can dig up on that attraction! Great work my friend! Keep it up!
Can we see the Jurassic Park Triceratops Encounter/Raptor Encounter? They're Living, Biological, Attractions so astounding it'll capture the imagination of the Entire Planet!
Well, one is still a living, biological attraction if you catch my drift 😉But yes, Triceratops and Raptor Encounter have been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Bryce!
The new one is amazing!!
I’ve only experienced the Jurassic Park area of Islands of Adventure, so I appreciate all the history and info on the Hollywood version. Excellent video as always!
Thank you Carlos, we appreciate it! People have been asking us to cover all of the JP rides but since Hollywood is first to close we focused on that one.
@@ThemeParkHistory it's looks good I love it so much it's looks amazing it's still snowing here on Disney company class starts in Disney world and Disneyland before using universal studios hollywood movies on Netflix with oasr awesome picture of the same time years before the election of dream of someone that it's looks like they have happened to get the vaccine hollywood movies
I am never going to forget this ride.
For my senior trip, my class went to Universal. Despite living in Florida and visiting Disney several times, I never once went to U. So I was happy. :) We got there. All was nice. I have a DEEP fear of rides. Even cars make me feel uncomfortable. So my max for a ride is the little drop (That isn't even a drop. More like something to make you feel off your edge) in the Pirates of a Caribbean ride. So I was happy with just hanging with my friends and looking around the whole day
My class rode this one race car thingy as I just ate food and walked around with my GF and my Best Friend.
Then they got on all these TV ride things. I guess U has a lot of rides that aren't rides, just a seat infront of a screen simulating a ride? Idk. I got called a coward for not going on those because my GF who was also afraid of rides went on them and loved them.
We got to Jurassic park and my Math teacher practically BEGGED me to go on. Claiming it is no worse than the Pirates ride at Disney. The entire time I was just like grabbing onto my hoodie as my face went redder and redder. I distinctly remember this mexican family looking at me like I was a freak as I just grabbed the strings of the hoodie, just staring at the TV screens in line. I saw a drop happen on the screen and i IMMEDIATELY TURNED TO MY MATH TEACH. He shrugged it off and said "Its a tiny drop. Not even as tall as you are."
I honestly calmed down a lot after that comment.
I got on the ride very hesitant like. I honestly forgot this bet, but I bet I asked the employees there all KINDS of questions like "How long is the drop" and "Is there any problems with the ride" but idk.
I got in next to my GF. My best friend and math teacher right behind me. The ride started out nicely. I bet I would have enjoyed that part if I wasn't near pissing myself. Then we entered that one building. I saw the drop coming up with the T-Rex so I just ducked my head and talked to my GF who was rubbing my back (And I bet laughing at my whimpish attitude) The drop happened and I turned back to my math teacher as he said "See? That wasn't too bad!" only for me to very soon hear him say "ooo. I forgot this bit" in a somewhat concerned way. I didn't say a word to him. I just ducked my head. I waited there for a while. I didn't even see the drop. But after a lot of noise (Most of which I tried to block out) I felt the drop. Where I proceeded to curse up a storm as my then GF held onto me mostly for my protection.) After that ride I spent my giftshop money on a mug. So I may never forget when I almost pissed myself in front of my class and teachers.
What I just hope is that they still keep the intro audio when you go through the gates. It causes nostalgia to flow through my veins, demands my respect for the ride and dinos, all while sending a chill of uncertainty, hope, and excitement creeping diwn my spine. I apologize for this disquisition, but I just appreciate this ancient attraction for what it holds. That consisting of aforementioned nostalgia, excitement, and breataking awe/grandeur for such a great ride this is. That, and well, . . .
Water.
I agree with you Greninja, I think they should keep the intro the same. If they remove the door and the music it won't feel like Jurassic Park. Here's hoping Universal knows what they're doing with the transition to Jurassic World.
*WELL DONE!* While I for one *am* understanding of some people being disappointed that this is going to transition from 'Park' to 'World,' I for one am being *open-minded* about it because A) I've been growing accustomed to the "Jurassic World" films and B) the ride in Hollywood I say NEEDED an update. You look at footage from it today compared to when it first opened during the mid-90s, the differences in the quality of the animatronics alone is night and day IMO.
Thank you! I will remain optimistic about the transformation since the ride system will remain, meaning no screens or 3D (at least I hope). I agree with you that the ride was in desperate need of some work. Inside Universal has a POV of the ride from 1997 and the difference is mind boggling. Since the special effects and the animatronics at their peak are amazing.
Theme Park History You're quite welcome! Personally, if the new ride has a *few* 3D screens (but the effects are mostly animatronics), I'll be OK with it.
I've seen that Inside Universal video you're talking about! I agree, the difference is night and day! That video's mainly why I feel I would've enjoyed myself more in the ride had I gone on it back around when it first opened.
I don't understand why people keep speaking about the 1997 version ? Just enjoy the ride guys. The fact that this ride is running so many years itself is amazing!! And it looks pretty much the same. (Except for a minor slow down in the animatronics.)
history of revenge of the mummy ride my boy imhotep needs some shine
Imhotep is going to get his day, Revenge of the Mummy has been added to the list, thank you for the suggestion xPURPLESHROOMSx
I went to Universal studios Orlando last week, and I can say with out a doubt that the Jurassic Park ride is my favorite and the best ride there!
The most expensive ride ever built is actually test track in Disney world I believe (at around 300 million), but I’m sure this is the most expensive ride at universal for sure!
Check out posted comment, we dun goofed about the most expensive attraction ever built part in the video.
Or at least was in the 1990's, for sure. The best thing to of opened at Universal Studios, *ever.* That ride was a *complete blast,* from start to the end drop. Went on it about 6-7 times, pre refurbishment, thank God (1997 & 2001). I love all the Jurassic films, but the Jurassic World version better live up to the JP Ride. Really.
The drop is so much better in Orlando
Why is it better in Orlando?
?
the drop in Hollywood is also 85 feet.
Orlando is much better than Hollywood. Even their HHN are much better.
Jorge Ramos the difference between the hhn events is that Orlando has more mazes and Hollywood has less but it’s more detailed than Orlando
Would love to see one about Spiderman ride at Islands of Adventure. That ride BLEW MY MIND as a kid.
The Amazing Adventures of Spiderman has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion James.
Such a great channel. You go into so much detail and your use of old footage and pictures is great. The clear, descriptive and informative narration gives this a PBS documentary feel (which is a good thing).
Thank you much Daryl, we appreciate the kind words! Being compared to a PBS documentary is pretty high praise, I always thought would be compared to a local news broadcast or something you find on public access tv.
I’m an inner city high school teacher. I teach four AP US History classes. I LOVE what you’re doing for public history. I have my students experiment with public history projects as their course final.
I started my channel to attempt to model how someone could do public history online. I’d love to exchange notes with you.
Your channel is exactly what I can see my students doing. Keep it up!

Thanks for the reply, and keep up the excellent work! Can definitely see you improving since your first video on the channel!
Thank you! That's a pretty big vote of confidence, I wasn't sure if our videos had been getting better since Twister. We haven't heard much from the comments about it but hearing we are definitely brighten my day.
Everyone wants their two seconds of fame and just sound off on what they wanna see next
(which, is ok!), but you always have to give credit where credit is due. Found out about your channel last month, and binged all of them amongst a few days. The overall quality, editing, and content has been on the rise, so definitely keep up the great work. It will pay off in the end, as you continue to see your subscribers and view count growing (at this point, your most viewed video is Kongfrontation at 32,000 views within 2 weeks, and this video already has 28,293 views in JUST TWO DAYS!). Keep doing what you do!
Can you do the history of Revenge of the Mummy Ride?
Revenge of the Mummy has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Javier.
Wasn't the mummy ride originally ET
23zombieking yes it was
Love love love this ride. Definitely worth the long wait it took to get on. Have always been a fan of a water ride
Got a Jurassic World: The Ride ad before watching this. Fitting.
History of The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man would be cool!
The Amazing Adventures of Spider Man has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Gustavo!
This HAS to happen
Awesome video! I agree - the old attraction should've been left alone, and a Jurassic World ride should've been built elsewhere in the park. There's definitely space. Thanks for the nostalgia trip with all the footage! I subscribed!
I rather have the two distinct area, each representing a different era in the franchise. Unfortunately with the naming rights to Jurassic Park reverting back to Crichtion's family it seems eventually all areas will convert over to Jurassic World. Thanks for the sub, we appreciate the support.
@@ThemeParkHistoryit's looks like new ride live in concert with News TV show on doing live in concert with universal studios hollywood new 🆕 picture
I wish hey didn’t have to close it down, It makes me so sad. I love this ride so much. I wish they’d keep it and just make Jurassic World right next to it, more than likely it’ll be one of those 3D rides, I like rides where animatronics are involved.
That's the only benefit: we will lose Jurassic Park, but at least this attraction won't have screens and 3D (at least I hope it doesn't).
Well if i recall, they have stated there ate going to be new animatronics
I rode this for the first time this past September. These animatronics needs A LOT of love.
This was always a highlight at Universal Studios Hollywood on hot summer days
It’s one of my favorite rides so thank you and I can’t get enough of your videos
I rode it 2 times: In 2009 when I was 6 years old and In September 2017 when I was 14 years old and it was awesome, my favorite ride at Universal Studios Hollywood
Can you do Space Mountain Disneyland and Disney World?
Space Mountain has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Madisyn.
In Japanese version, the story of this ride attraction is not so detailed. Most of the guests probably don't understand why they need to evacuate by falling down. On the other hand, in the Hollywood version, it is explained that falling down is the last resort to run away from T-rex and the toxic gus. But it is still difficult to understand the story of this ride at once. I've finally got it by watching this video. Thank you for uploading.
I went to Universal this past weekend for Grinchmass and I rode Juriassic three times and loved it!!!
The history of the mummy? You just did Kongfrontation so it would be cool to finish the history of that attraction.
Revenge of The Mummy has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Justin!
10:04 for some reason I always thought he said “They’re in the building” referring to the tourists
Same here, but then again I was never paying attention to the voice because of the massive T-Rex right in front of me.
Would love to see a history of Splash Mountain!
Splash Mountain has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion EphemeralGlobe!
EphemeralGlobe,I would like to see it to.
I remember this ride when I was 12 and gotta say I miss it this ride will also be sick bro🤘
Thank you, and I love you, so very much more now. 💚💚💚😇😎😀 The memories of going on that nonstop when my oldest brother used to work at Universal... I need to go back before the change...
Thank you so much Nicky for the kind words, we appreciate it. You have a few more weeks until it's closed down for good. After that, you'll have to head to Florida if you want to experience it.
Watching this after having seen the POV videos of the Jurassic World updated ride...
Gotta say, glad they didn’t change too much but I hope there’s a bigger ending than what’s been shown so far in soft opening...
Awesome channel, just what I was looking for! You should do Rockin Rollercoaster Starring: AEROSMITH for the next video! Keep the content coming!
Thank you Alex, we appreciate that! Rockin Rollercoaster Starring Aerosmith has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion!
Man, I love this channel
And we love you Hudson.
Just rode this a few days ago, it was missing a ton of animatronics and the raptors were definitely struggling. It def needs some TLC in Orlando.
Thanks for doing my request!
Thank you Expand Dong for the suggestion, sorry for not including you in the shoutouts but we had already finished the video by then.
Expand Dong XD. That’s a awesome name

Love your vids! So informational! Can your next video be on how Universals Horror Nights started and the history of it?
Thank you for the kind words Viviane, we appreciate the support! We have plans to cover Halloween Horror Nights in a video closer to Halloween, so check it out then!
im actually glad that they are redoing the ride. its been around since i was born, and compared to when i first went on it vs. going a few years ago, the animatronics def needed an upgrade. the car that fell off the building stopped working and the velociraptor slid slowly from the top of the roof. Im sad that this ride that has been around since my childhood is gone, but i expect great things from jurassic world.
I'm crying. I miss this ride so much.
Great video! You have to do one on Dueling dragons at Universals Islands of Adventure and it's history of what it has gone through. Such an amazing and sad to see it go. It is exciting to see what's to come in that area but still sad.
Thank you Nicholas, we appreciate the kind words. Dueling Dragons/Dragon Challenge has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion.
History of Revenge of the Mummy?

Since I've never been to Universal, the only way I've experienced this ride was a recreation on Roblox, which, despite it's limitations, was still pretty cool!
when this guy said the ride was gonna close i thought " omfg noooo i love this ride " but it's just a renovation
i can't wait to ride this again
Nothing will replace tis ride. It is pure GENIUS, kind of like the first JP movie!

I like how before the movie came out, the ride was on it's way to be made because they just KNEW the movie was going to be good.
But the studio bought the rights to the book to make a movie, because they KNEW the book was going to be good.
Before the movie was released, they said "the ride will never be as good as what we have on film"
Jurassic Park was a modern-day Wizard of Oz. It wasn't just created to make money, it was made to be a part of history.
This brings so much nostalgia. One time I went on the last ride of the day with a friend and the music was off. Being able to truly enjoy the animatronics and everything else in silence was outstanding. It’s the only ride I have ever been on that has kept me so excited. Looking forward to the update as the backlot is a bit empty now.
I never got to the ride the US Hollywood version of Jurassic Park The Ride, so it saddens me that they'll change it. Hopefully they won't change Jurassic Park in Islands of Adventure over at Universal Orlando. That's the ride I've been on quite a few times. There are some differences between the rides with some scenes, but the outcome has been the same. Wish I was able to go to Hollywood so that I would be able to ride Jurassic Park before it becomes Jurassic World. Oh well.
JohnStripedfur seeing that Universal Studios will be loosing the rights to Jurassic PARK the ride and area in Orlando is going to become Jurassic World.
Do “Twister Ride it out “ from Universal Studios orlandoooo
Got some good news Shadling, Twister: Ride It Out was the first video we did for the channel! Check it out here: th-cam.com/video/2_ywPf-qIvA/w-d-xo.html
YES I'VE BEEN WAITING.... I cannot believe that they have decided to update from "Park" to "World." Why not keep Park foundations and add World elements?
and thanks for the shout out! :)
I heavily agree. Jurassic Park is the classic, Jurassic World is just an okay derivative
SORRY IT TOOK THAT LONG. I agree with you, they should expand the idea, not just replace it. I think what Universal is doing is just a way to bring in something new without changing much about the actual attraction. Replacing the entire attraction would costs millions more than to just reskin it. And no problem Emilye, thank you for the suggestion!
Emilye Lombardo because you have been insisting that the ride needs an update and upgrade, now you're complaining, u can't have it both ways
"Upgrade" as in new skins on the animatronics, new paint, new ideas.... STILL AS JURASSIC "PARK." Jurassic World (in my opinion) is not as good as the Parks nor will it ever be. However, because this is the internet and I can practice freedom of speech and feel however I want, I can have it both ways. I understand that there needs to be improvements made, but I don't think it needs to be in "World" fashion. If that makes sense.
Epcot’s Test Track is the most expensive theme park ride at $300 million. Followed by Radiator Springs Racers at $200 million, Tower of Terror in CA at $180 million, and Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey at $150 million.
See the pinned comment for the correction.
Love the Jurassic park river adventure and the veliscoster ❤

I love Jurassic Park.
This ride in Florida made up for the lack of Back to the Future and Jaws.

Excellent content! When you have time please do EPCOT's past rides; Horizons, World of Motion, etc. Thank you.
Thank you Fredito, we appreciate the kind words. We are definitely going to cover EPCOT, I've been wanting to do a video on Horizons for a long time.
I went to Universal Orlando in summer of 1993 and rode a ride that I can’t find anything about. It was completely indoors. You sat in a replica of the Jeep and it swayed back and forth and up and down while a film played on a screen that completely surrounded you. It was highly realistic and it actually felt like you were moving. I can’t seem to find anything about it, but I do have a picture of myself in line for it. I am 100% sure that it was 1993 - that and 2004 are the only times I’ve been to Universal. Does anyone else remember this and know the name?
You’re describing back to the future
@@Maniac536, thanks! I found that out on my own, but it took several days. Wish I’d had your comment then.
I'm actually glad they are re-theming. When I went there, only half of the stuff worked and what did looked weird. I think it's overdue for an update.
The Great Movie Ride, is definitely video worthy.
The Great Movie Ride has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Austin.
Would you ever consider doing a park history on "Halloween Horror Nights"?
We have an idea for a video about Halloween Horror Night that will be out closer to Halloween. Thank you for your suggestion direbrian.
@@ThemeParkHistory hey
The mummy coaster
Revenge of the Mummy has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion ZO TV!
This ride has always had a special place in my heart, as does the entire franchise (JP3 less so). But it's replacement was getting more and more obvious. I mean not only are the newer movies successful and very good, but tge ride jas been weafing fown for a LONG time. I can't wait for the new ride, a nd to see what effects and Animatronics they add to it, as well as how the ride will work, and seeing how good JW:FK was, I hope the story is at least pretty interesting or cool.
Right there with Raptorus. I was relieved to hear they were keeping the same ride system and upgrading the attraction, not tearing it down and replacing it with the every growing fleet of 3D/Screens/Motion Simulator rides at the parks. Here's hoping Jurassic World bring some magic back to the park.
this is why I am nuetral on this. if they do it well this can work great. screw it up and the fans will not be happy at all.
Stfu the Jurassic Park 3 movie was good you got no right to say that shit
My favorite part of the ride is everything up to the the ascent into the building. I like the atmosphere.
I love everything about the attraction: the atmosphere, the story, the mood. It all builds up into something amazing. It uses the same idea from the original movie.
I loved the Jurassic Park ride. I’m glad I got to ride it once before it closes. But I’m still excited for the new one.

Right there with you Wicked Slick, hopefully they still bring some much needed excitement to the new version.
I Love a lot of your videos but - THIS IS MY FAVORITE. 👍
THE TOWER OF TERROR!!!!!
Tower of Terror has been added to the list, thank you for your suggestion Terrell.
I'm hoping, we will get both Jurassic Park ride, and Jurassic World ride. I want both of them, the classic for the, well, classic stuff, and the new one, for the new one.
I was hoping for that too, but as people as pointed out in the comments Universal will lose the naming rights to "Jurassic Park" after the 3rd Jurassic World movie comes out, with the rights reverting to Michael Crichton. Unless they somehow cut a deal (not sure this is even possible), it seems most likely all the "Park" rides will eventual turn over into "World".
Theme Park History dang. I'm not really sure why they're calling Jurassic world its own trilogy. It's still a part of the Jurassic Park series. Even if it is a spin-off it's still a part of that story.. I just don't like how Jurassic world and Jurassic world Fallen Kingdom have made the dinosaurs go from Majestic and some dangerous living off their instincts dinosaurs, to, "good guy versus bad guy big fight Showdown at the end" dinosaurs...
( I say as I eat my Jurassic world Fallen Kingdom branded yogurt with my blue the Velociraptor pillow in the background ) 👀
Technically Universal is now calling all the movies part of the "Jurassic" franchise. This is just their way to still have them connected. I agree with you, I don't enjoy this idea where these "lab created" dinosaurs are out there to cause chaos for the higher bidder. It still beats the original concept a while back for Jurassic Park 4 where there would have been genetically engineered human dinosaur mercenaries.
Theme Park History I never heard of that, but yeah it is! so are they releasing all the movies and stuff with the name Jurassic on them? Because I'm sure most people will add "Park" to the end of it mentally.
