What ride do you think will be the most popular/have the longest wait time when Epic Universe opens? My bet is personally on StarFall Racers and/or Monsters Unchained.
@@Ljkrummen987 Do you think the Super Nintendo world will eventfully have merchandise on other IPS beside Mario and Donkey Kong, as it is called Super Nintendo World, implying that its about more than 1 or 2 IPs?
Universal should give all these workers an “epic universe, I built that” shirt. They’ve been breaking their backs getting this done at a mind blowing pace from my perspective anyway.
It truly makes u believe that Disney is slow on purpose due to their success. They don’t have the drive universal has and it shows right here. That’s why one day Universal Orlando will surpass Disney
Someone let me know if u agree or not I would assume basically all of the exterior will be done by this summer and by winter they’re done with interior then the rest of the months till summer opening is used training staff, rehearsing shows and such, and then press opening
If I had a nickel for every Windmill had some sort of fire on it at Epic Universe at opening. I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice. Thank you Alicia for this update! Great job! Loving it!
They are working around the clock. When I was in universal studios in Orlando last November. I talked to a employee and he said they work around the clock to get things done.
A great hall dinner is what I’ve been saying for years!!!! I don’t understand how they haven’t made it yet! Look how popular be our guest restaurant is. The Greta hall shows up in every movie is the most iconic.
Honestly hate the idea considering it just makes the land a weird mess of 3 seperate potter things that really shouldn't be together Wizarding Paris, British ministry and Hogwarts great hall
I will laugh so hard if they add a tiny nut on top. If you don't know what I mean, an elderly woman lives on top of the mountain the great hall is carved into in the canon.
i think it’s so cool that they’re still incorporating popular ips into the park while still maintaining an overall park theme and perspective. its probably going to be the first park to have ips that fit in instead of being thrown around carelessly
I agree perfectly, they all fit in to an overall vision. Disney is incapable of that nowadays, so incapable theyve slaughtered the visions of Epcot and Hollywood Studios. They have their eyes now set on killing Animal Kingdoms theming now as well
@@darkdude521 yes but they don’t necessarily mesh very well within the fabric of the park. on paper there’s islands of different ips and worlds, but in reality you just cross from harry potter to jurassic park to superhero’s with maybe just a sign
It’s a bit like Magic Kingdom. There is a main hub park theme & then 4 distinct lands. It’s much easier when building from the ground up vs adding things
Love the videos, it would be fun at the end of the year do one where you show pictures from January of 2023 and then December 2023 just to show how far things have come this year, it would be cool to see a recap of each land and how far its come in a year. Anyway appreciate the content ya’ll are awesome
I was thinking the same. It's amazing the progress they make in such short time. To think nearly 70 years go they built disneyland in a single year and now take 4 plus for a single attraction. Universal is on another level.
This theme park will be the best theme park in the world by a long shot when it opens, I can't think of a theme park that would come close every box is checked, all the lands are world-class immersive and you have a incredible high energy roller coaster to even everything out..... Simply incredible design of a theme park
When you mentioned the great hall dining experience that got me super excited! Universal is truly upping the game for theme parks in central Florida! I’m so thrilled to see this level of detail and commitment!
I am the most exited for the rumored Great Hall Dinning experience. That will be so cool with the ceiling changing, floating candles, frog choir, maybe even people dressed as house ghosts to interact with guests. Even a Dumbledore look a like to give a speech would be good. (If Universal doesn't care about time lines like Disney does, which I hope they don't know one cares about that.)
Thanks, you have the best updates by far. Some others may be quicker, but they lack any detail and knowledge. Nor do they even bother with the permit details, which adds an extra dimension and layer of detail to your updates. Keep them coming. Thanks.
I have a feeling that phase 2 in all the lands will start being constructed before the park opens if not shortly after. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were already in the planning stages for at least two more lands.
These updates get me so excited for this park. I've never been a theme park girlie, but I'm looking into going to some smaller regional parks just to get my theme park experience up so I can hit this park like a pro when it opens.
A huge fan of Alicia! She’s now my comfort voice for all theme park updates lol the Dining Hall rumor really has me so excited I hope it’s true because that a DREAM!!!
I cannot believe the speed this project is working at, especially after the misery that was watching the raising of the Tron coaster. Thank you for the frequent updates and for citing your sources!
Wooow I'm so excited to see this theme park open. The way they're building this park it's going to be epic and hell we might see a soft opening late next year I hope so... thank you for the narration I'm so excited for this theme park 👏🏾😁
Thank you so much for these updates Alicia, always so detailed and informative. This park will be so beautiful when its finished, unlike anything else in Florida😊
It's wild how small the buildings look from Birds Eye view photos, but then you show a photo with a lower perspective and with people in it for scale and these buildings are massive! Meteor Astro Pub blew my mind when I saw the perspective change at 3:29 . The first image made it look tiny, and the second image makes it look like a huge building. Wild.
Yeah everything inside this park is massive in size. The overhead views don't do any justice as to how large everything is inside the park. The park itself is massive in size too.
The dinner experience is what this park needed. I complained months back that the land lacked content. 1 ride and theatre experience. The dining hall with visuals would be great until further 2nd ride expansion.
@@ducktails1695 That's a fair take. Diagon alley just holds alot of nostalgia vs the new land. The train makes both sides feel connected vs this one won't be
Keep in mind there's a ton of expansion behind that land so eventually it'll be expanded out. There's only so much budget to go around for the initial Epic Universe build.@@StreetsEz
The fact that Alicia and team use different music for each land's update is a testimony to the quality and care (and work!) that goes into the videos... and it is SO MUCH APPRECIATED 😊
God I'm just mind blown on how fast this park is being built, and the fact that rumors are going around a great hall dining experience, just goes to show that Universal makes everything go from impossible to possible!!! Thanks for the best reviews on this park!
Universal is really picking up all the pieces that Disney is putting down. Disney closes their immersive Star Wars dinner theater experience? Universal builds an immersive Harry Potter Great Hall dining experience that doesn't cost $6,000. Disney closes its Starcruiser hotel that had pseudo-park access? Universal builds a glorious hotel right into their park.
It's wild how quickly they're building this huge park! Meanwhile, in NYS, it took the state OVER a year to build a single rest stop... and the new "apple" rest stops SUCK! They're set up horribly. Goes to show how much better private industry is at these sorts of things!
Ok, hear me out Alicia… Creature from the Black Lagoon ride uses “boat not boat”. It’s perfect lol. I don’t know how it will fit the story, but I just want to see boat not boat, and I know Ian does too!
You have the best theme park coverage! Also, I gotta say it: I'm pretty sure the texture of the Monsters Manor building is supposed to resemble 'stone work' not 'brickwork'.
That roller coaster barrier looks like it will be to prevent things like shoes and loose articles from flying into the oncoming riders on the opposite side
Thank you 🙏 I am home very very sick and I can’t go out or leave the house for weeks. I was so delighted to see that I can book a room for the future when I know I will be stronger ❤
Wow !...and down-the-street at Epcot, Disney takes 4+ years to build a small, sitting 'park' (without a fountain) and with malfunctioning, 'brand-new-lights'...
In other news, The Pokemon Company just announced PokePark Kanto just outside Tokyo, which aims to be the first ever Pokemon theme park offering an immersive experience in the world of Pokemon. And they also filed trademarks for PokePark Kalos & Paldea in Europe. So yeah, I wouldn’t place any bets on a Pokemon land opening at Universal Orlando anytime soon (that’s been my biggest fear all along, if we don’t see the rumored Pokemon land, it’d be due to reluctance on the part of TPC to give the rights to the franchise as part of Universal’s Nintendo deal, rather than lack of resources/space at Universal).
I wouldn't totally write it off...There are Harry Potter type experiences in London and other places and yet Universal still builds Harry Potter lands and expansions.
Is there any news regarding a nighttime Spectacular for the park? I know that we have heard rumors that the peninsula on the lake behind the hotel will be a fireworks launch site but do we know what type of show we're looking for?
My dream for HHN 33 was if they could possibly pull off doing 3 parks and showcasing Epic Universe. Obviously unlikely since they need to construct and move from exterior to interior, but they’re building so fast that if they put up a couple tents and strict access/tours of work safe exteriors I could see it as a highly unlikely possibility
I was actually thinking maybe Universal would do a family friendly version of Halloween at Epic Universe, like a MNSSHP type event. I think it would be a bad idea to extend HHN into Epic. HHN while great, isn't for everyone and it would be nice if they had a more family version of Halloween at Epic that everyone can enjoy, something that would actually compete with MNSSHP at MK. I don't think they'll do anything right away. They just need to focus on getting the park opened successfully, but maybe something for later on.
Thank you Alicia for all these great updates! As a fan who lives overseas, your construction updates get me even more excited for this new park! Keep up the good work! 😄
Amazing how they are always planning for the future, park and hotels are moving along at a great pace and they are already planning on expansion. I know people say Disney is king but they should be worried about Universal, they mean business. I can wait to see what plans they have for studios and islands once back of park operations are moved to EPIC opening expansion room in those parks. Kinda wish I was younger so I can enjoy the growth.

We'll be answering your Epic Universe questions in the next podcast, so reply to this comment with your question!
What ride do you think will be the most popular/have the longest wait time when Epic Universe opens?
My bet is personally on StarFall Racers and/or Monsters Unchained.
will there be a Pokemon theme park 😊
@@Ljkrummen987 Do you think the Super Nintendo world will eventfully have merchandise on other IPS beside Mario and Donkey Kong, as it is called Super Nintendo World, implying that its about more than 1 or 2 IPs?
What should we expect in the Isle of Berk play area? Its looks very small and closed off from the rest of the land.
When do you think that the park will soft open
Universal should give all these workers an “epic universe, I built that” shirt. They’ve been breaking their backs getting this done at a mind blowing pace from my perspective anyway.
I really appreciate Alicia's narration style - very clear and comprehensible
Thank you so much!!
This theme park is being built so fast its actually insane
It truly makes u believe that Disney is slow on purpose due to their success. They don’t have the drive universal has and it shows right here. That’s why one day Universal Orlando will surpass Disney
Yet Disney worked on one attraction for 4 years and this theme park is like 4 years
Too bad there was a delay from the pandemic. If there was no pandemic this place woulda have been open already.
Disney has to play nice with Florida now. They aren’t used to that, universal has been doing it all along.
Someone let me know if u agree or not I would assume basically all of the exterior will be done by this summer and by winter they’re done with interior then the rest of the months till summer opening is used training staff, rehearsing shows and such, and then press opening
If I had a nickel for every Windmill had some sort of fire on it at Epic Universe at opening.
I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.
Thank you Alicia for this update! Great job! Loving it!
At this point I feel like the other two lands need burning windmills too now.
I was confused for a second, like I thought Monsters land has the windmill?, but no yeah it’s two nickels
The construction crew at Epic Universe is doing an incredible job! It's crazy to see how fast this park is being built!
They are working around the clock. When I was in universal studios in Orlando last November. I talked to a employee and he said they work around the clock to get things done.
A great hall dinner is what I’ve been saying for years!!!! I don’t understand how they haven’t made it yet!
Look how popular be our guest restaurant is. The Greta hall shows up in every movie is the most iconic.
My thoughts exactly 💯👍
I agree. Except I would prefer the Great Hall to a Greta Hall, hee hee
Honestly hate the idea considering it just makes the land a weird mess of 3 seperate potter things that really shouldn't be together Wizarding Paris, British ministry and Hogwarts great hall
@@liamlennon3316 They could conceivably connect it all through a Floo Powder network.
I will laugh so hard if they add a tiny nut on top. If you don't know what I mean, an elderly woman lives on top of the mountain the great hall is carved into in the canon.

You have the absolute best coverage of Epic's progress. I've shared your videos often. I'm so excited about this park. Keep up the good work!
I swear this was all piles of dirt and pieces of coaster track what felt like a month ago, the team creating this park is incredible!

Everybody has Epic Universe Construction videos but yours are still truly the best!
When you mentioned the great hall dining experience that got me super excited! Universal is truly upping the game for theme parks in central Florida! I’m so thrilled to see this level of detail and commitment!
I am the most exited for the rumored Great Hall Dinning experience.

I love these updates. I hope there are lots of good animatronics and not just screens. The coasters look great. Thanks.
If they make the HTTYD rollercoaster based on Toothless and Hiccup's first flight scene, paired with the music, I just might cry. 😭
These updates get me so excited for this park. I've never been a theme park girlie, but I'm looking into going to some smaller regional parks just to get my theme park experience up so I can hit this park like a pro when it opens.

What would you do for a 2nd ride attraction be?
@@MarissaGibson-qf5mg idk the land just needs more than the current layout
It's really no different than Dragon Alley. It has 1 attraction, 1 show and 1 restaurant with a bunch of shops.

A great hall dining experience would definitely be amazing.
This is the best channel for Epic Universe updates!! So well done!!
If only construction in New York can be done as fast as it is at Universal
Or our roads here in MI. Lol
@@JMetal98Michigan roads are brutal.
@@1ronEntertainment not wrong lol. Improving SOME but its painful.
Ooh yay another one! Thanks for these updates! As time goes on, it looks more and more badass
Want to definitely stay in one of those hotels. Can’t wait till that amazing park opens.
Hope in 2025 there’ll be a timelapse of all the progress this park has gone through.
I'm wondering if Universal will make a video of the park being built like they did with VelociCoaster?
In the time it took Disney to build Tron at MK (a duplicate ride they already built in Shanghai) Universal will have built a WHOLE theme park.
Your coverage is the ONLY one i look up for. You voice, the context and content is the best ❤
The dining hall will be amazing !
God I'm just mind blown on how fast this park is being built, and the fact that rumors are going around a great hall dining experience, just goes to show that Universal makes everything go from impossible to possible!!! Thanks for the best reviews on this park!
Every time you upload one of these, you totally make my lunch break ❤

I looking forward to the Alicia Stella Nova Review video
I was waiting on you to post your update I’m like “where my girl at it’s so much stuff updating” 💚
COOOL!!- I love the GREAT HALL, expansion rumours!!
THE GREAT HALL RESTAURANT IS WHAT WE WANT 😍😍😍😍
This theme park is being built so fast like Gordon’s express
Can’t wait
Gonna be here for it’s opening 😀
Its like watching the pyramids being built
Love it!!! The park is coming g along pretty good!!! Can’t wait for the announcement for the main hotel.
Great coverage as usual, but where did that banger come from that started at 3:16?
Love these videos!!! CANNOT wait for Epic Universe to open!! 🎉
I love it how the enerence to each land is like the portal from Stargate-symbolizing entering through another dimension. Cool!
General question: What is the background music name playing around the 58 second mark?
Great theme for a great upcoming theme park
Thank you 🙏 I am home very very sick and I can’t go out or leave the house for weeks. I was so delighted to see that I can book a room for the future when I know I will be stronger ❤
I really like the narrator's voice. Her clarity and cadence is very pleasing.😊
Thank you. That means a lot to me.
How many flaming windmills does one park need?
I'm learning english and your pronunciation is simply amazing. Thanks😊😊😊😊😊
What is the music you used in the beginning of this video? It’s always my favorite tune in your videos
Remember that kids book about the baby bat-Stella Luna?
Awesome analysis as always! Thanks for such stellar updates! :-)
Oh my gosh, that Great Hall Dining experience has so much potential! Sign me up! 👏

AAAA GREAT HALL RESTAURANT
I FREAKING CALLED IT
Oh wow, this is amazing progress!!! 🎉😃
Can't believe how many changes there has been between the updates! This is happening so fast. Disney could NEVER!
A great hall dinner experience would literally make my life
Is there any news regarding a nighttime Spectacular for the park? I know that we have heard rumors that the peninsula on the lake behind the hotel will be a fireworks launch site but do we know what type of show we're looking for?
Wait. What's Celestial Park's theme again? Astrology and Astronomny?
I’m 43 but I’m so excited for this park I feel like a kid. 😂
I keep trying to forget about this so i can come back months later and see loads of progress coz I'm too impatient 😭😭
My dream for HHN 33 was if they could possibly pull off doing 3 parks and showcasing Epic Universe. Obviously unlikely since they need to construct and move from exterior to interior, but they’re building so fast that if they put up a couple tents and strict access/tours of work safe exteriors I could see it as a highly unlikely possibility
I’m really excited to see if they will do anything to the Universal Monsters land for HHNs
I was actually thinking maybe Universal would do a family friendly version of Halloween at Epic Universe, like a MNSSHP type event. I think it would be a bad idea to extend HHN into Epic.

You can watch a highlights reel here: twitter.com/tdrexplorer/status/1731913712896770299
I never get tired if these updates
Truly epic indeed
If I had a nickel for every time Epic Universe had a burning windmill, I'd have two nickel, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.
I hope there will be more benches or shaded areas!!!!
I believe the divider walls on the dueling coaster are sound baffles. They look identical to the ones found on Fast & Furious at Universal Hollywood.
Wow! Awesome!!!!❤
Incredible. Meanwhile over at Disney, they managed build some new planters at Epcot which took them nearly 6 years.

Amazing how they are always planning for the future, park and hotels are moving along at a great pace and they are already planning on expansion.

Seeing how we're probably 18 months out until the park opens, yeah, I would consider this crunch time lol.
What if Universal doesn’t actually build fast but Disney has just set the standard for slow ?
