    This was recorded around the time I first rode the E.T. Adventure in Hollywood. It was my first and last time, but I was able to ride again in Orlando in 2018. A great attraction. I was upset when the Mummy took the space over. Thanks for recording this.

      I only rode it a couple of times but it was one of my favorite things at Universal.

    Man one thing the video can't do justice to is the strange smell the ride had. I was there in 1993 and still to this day, remember how it smelt. Was like a sulfur/chlorine type smell. Weird. I loved the ride and loved the movie as a kid. One of my faves!

      I was born in `93 and went there with my dad in the early-mid 2000s until it closed.

      I bought the scented candle from the ET store you enter when you exit the ride at universal. The smell is spot on & it is so nostalgic.

      The sulfur/chloride smell was likely the hydraulics beneath the ride. The odor was worse there.

    I went to universal studios for my 6th birthday. My parents, grandmother, and best friend were all together on this ride. This is one of my fondest memories (I am 36 now) of my childhood. Walking through the forest, hearing each of our names said at the end, it was magical.

      It was one of my favorites! I was sad when they took it out, they should have kept it. It was better than the Mummy ride.

    "Welcome to the E.T. Adventure, sponsored by AT&T. We'd like to remind you at this time that there's no flash photography while inside the attraction, and to keep your arms and legs inside the ride vehicle..." I worked there for a summer in Hollywood.

    Rode this in Sept 1999 at Universal Studios Hollywood. A magical experience, loved it! Ten years later was back in Oct 2009 and it had gone from the Hollywood Universal Studios. It’s still at Orlando though? Word has it Spielberg fought to keep it there?

    • @TravelJack
      @TravelJack  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      E.T. is still in operation in Orlando! The Hollywood ride closed in 2003 and was replaced by Revenge of the Mummy (It's fun, but E.T. was better in my opinion.) There was also a ride at Universal Studios Japan that operated from 2001-2009. I got to ride it in 2006 but unfortunately they didn't allow on-ride filming. I'm not sure the specifics of Spielberg's involvement, but it appears he has some sort of contractual agreement that ties in with the theme park operations, so he probably has some influence on these types of decisions.

      @@TravelJack cool! I’m in Tokyo at the moment for the Olympics but because we can’t stay on I can’t do Universal Studios here. I also rode on The Mummy in 2009 at Hollywood, it was ok, but just a ride for a film that isn’t in the same league as E.T. The E.T. ride WAS an experience, and just brilliant. I must get back to Florida, I’ve been twice but I’ve only been to Busch Gardens. Haven’t ‘done’ Orlando as it were! Thanks for your reply!

    I go way back with E.T. the Extra Terrestrial; I have found some E.T. Funko Pops already of E.T. And Elliot, the next characters that should be released by Funko need to be the characters from the ride: Botanicus, Tikli, Orbidon, and Magdol.
