With Fireworks and dragon drone tests, we're seeing more than just construction now!
Wow, was there in April and the progress since then is massive
Any rumors related with the exact date that the park will be opening?
Any updates on universal studios great Britain?
I keep thinking back to the first one of your shows- there were foundation pads for several of the show buildings, and lots of dirt. Just dirt. Half of the show involved going over drawings because there was so little to see on the ground- yet.
This is Very exciting. I am a scenic carpenter and a bit of a scenic painter, this work they are doing is amazing!
Disney gonna add new popcorn buckets , bluey meet and greet, and new bus wraps. Epic universe won’t stand a chance
Thanks for the updates on the road construction. It is amazing how long roads take to build. We have 3 big road projects going on in my area. The two smaller projects are going to take 2.5 years to complete and the big one is scheduled to take 3.5 years. I hope the Florida road builders are faster than Indiana's are.
And the Dragon Drone is AMAZING.
Dragons Drones
Thats fuck**g sick
This park will be amazing
This is mind blowing!!! Universal really does a great job and you covered it beautifully as you always do! I’m super excited about going to Florida to check it out…Watching your videos, will kind of be like an appetizer for the main entrée of actually visiting. Lol 🎉
Thank you, Alicia!!!
Disney had an urge to charge anyone looking at the dragons, then realised they couldn’t.
It’s a shame that Disney needed such a large push like this to finally take blue sky ideas and actually build on some.
Disney is falling the hell off
Disney unveiled villain land which I think they are mirroring monsters land in epic
Disney announced their park announcements for WDW. In my opinion, Epic Universe is the reason we're finally getting a villains land (to combat dark universe) and monstropolis (to combat ministry of magic)
Sucks it took Universal's success to make Disney move again. I can't wait for Epic Universe
Thankyou so much for these updates. So exciting to see all the different areas being build. Cannot wait to visit when it opens, especially Super Nintendo world that will be amazing. Keep those updates coming😊👍
Thanks
will we see some ride testing at donkey Kong mine cart madness
Finally people are going to see that universal is better then Disney
I AM SO EXCITED FOR HTTYD!!!
The night view from the hotel is going to be something spectacular. I hope one day I can afford a room I think I’d stay up all night next to the window.
Its nice that Doc has has more time to build his models to scale, and paint them.
Now if I see a dragon just take the rest of my money for life 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I am excited to hear about building progress for Disney's newly announced lands since for the Villains land, they've already said they've started working! I love these videos, thank you!!
Disney: We have a Haunted Mansion
Universal: Hold My Beer
I literally try to count down my estimate of how many days it is until the next Theme Park Stop update drops each time a new one comes out. It's so interesting to be able to see a theme park come together!
2:23 I still chat over the name change; it just sounds cheesy now. But I get the renaming for copyright purposes. Still sad tho😢😊
9:57 I honestly thought this was the model for a second that’s insane😂
I’ve been so excited about the other lands that for the past couple months, I forgot Stardust racers exists
get it done.
Comcast: Builds an entirely new, state of the art theme park. City of Orlando: The road may be behind schedule.
Pretty small park
UNIVERSAL >>>>>>> MIDNEY lol
Seeing thugly back is awesome(thugly is the first boss in donkey Kong country returns
Screw Disney and their uninspired bullshit, replacing 50+ year old historic attractions with cheap disney plus built boards brand synergy is never in any universe a good idea. Unlike Disney’s uninspired corporate buzzpark, this place actually looks like effort went into it.
I think it’ll be easier if you just tell us your apart of the design team 🤣🤣🤣 I enjoyed this and can’t wait to show my kids ❤️❤️ thank you 😊 I’ve been waiting for this
That roundabout seems overkill for what is essentially a single direction. Why not just build a ramp with an overpass/bridge?
As far as you guys can tell, is there only one entrance and exit per land?
Hopefully you see this !!!! I know a while back you mentioned who was building the rides in epix and I’m almost certain in the D23 podcast show that same company is doing Disney rides. The company that done epix was from near Allentown PA. I however can’t fine that video but I’m still looking. In the mean time do you remember? Or do you know the trucking companies that been bring in the rides? That’s something as a truck driver would LOVE to do transport the entertainment to the parks. A few years back I contacted Disney of over the road driving for them and they said I’d need to live near LA or Orlando to be able to do the Fl-Ca transport or the DOI.
I am so fucking excited to visit this park with my girlfriend…this is going to be truly EPIC!
A US park with an actual Captain Toad AA breaks my Californian-based heart.
Is the next reveal going to be about the Grand Helios and when is your next construction update?
Yeah, Disney has lost this battle.
That dragon first flew 11 years ago people!!!! for the grand opening of Fantasy land.
I literally installed the blue monster seen on thumbnail 14k lbs took 1 hr to just get off the ground
